SINCE Hon. w. 2. Brownlow made
his first speech in the contest, there has
been a general desire for him to speak
in his W county. He is relying upon
the Republicans of this county to take
care of his interests while he looks
after the matter in other counties, and
is kept 10 busy watching the combina-
ton against him, that it will be impos-
scble to make u canvass of this County.
However he will close his campaign in
Washington County by addressing the
people at Jonesboro, Friday March 2,
at one PM, and at johnson City, Fri
day night March 2, at 1880 Pm. Other
prominent speakers have been invited,
and a political love feast at both places
may be expected.
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-02-21

The Republicans of Washington
County intend to invite Senator John
Sherman to visit this county during the
campaign, and we have every reason to
believe he will accept the invitation
and address u people on the issues of
the day. His presence will draw thous
ands from the surrounding counties
who will be delighted to hear the great
est American statesman now living.
Sherman is to America, what Gladstone
is to England, and no higher honor can
be conferre | on this old county, named
after the father of our country, than to
have Mr.. Sherman come among us.
This is no campaign story to attract at
tention, but a certainly, if Mr.. Brown
low is nominated, and in person pre-
sents the invitation.
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-02-21

The basis of representation fixed by
the committee last Thursday makes the
County Conventions consist OF ninety
nine delegates each. Delegates prefer
ring to take part in the Congressional
contest should remember that this con
vention meets in the Circuit Court
room. Those prefer,ing to take part in
the Judicial contest will note that the
convention for that purpose meets in
the Chancery Court room. Both con
ventions meet at the same hour, and no
person can be q delegate to more than
one of these conventions.
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-02-21

THE enthusiasm with which the peo-
pie are rallying to the support of Brown
low so clearly points to his nomination,
and that too by a big majority. that
his enemies are greatly discouraged
and d~emoralized. Some of them are
resorting to every means they can con-
ceive of to encompass his defeat. They
are resorting to all the intrigue" or
~"trickery" their brains can conceive
of. They know that unless they do
something, and that very quick, to
stem the current that is bearing Brown
low to success, they will be utterly
overwhelmed at Morristown on the 9Th
of next month. Their Generalization
reminds us of the boy put out on a
rough sea in an open boat: Can you
pray, JIM" NO" Can you sing a
hymn" No" Cant you, then re-
peat a verse O. the Bible?" Not a bit
of it," WELL" with a sigh, ''some-
thing has got to be done quick"
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-02-21

THE Herald and Tribune has treated
all candidates in this contest with the
utmost courtesy and kindness. Making
a speciality in its support of Mr.. Brown.
low, it has taken no part in any other
contest. Every communication that
has reached this Office, accompanied by
the name of a responsible writer, in the
interest of any candidate, has appeared
in these columns, and there has not
been one line in the paper for Mr..
Brownlow or any n else that was not
the production of a bonafide and re
sponsible author. 1t is we'll known
that candidates in other counties, are
trying to defeat all the candidates from
this county on the plea that Washing.
ton County has had more than her
share of public honors. This we deny,
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-02-21
1T takes "a votes in the convention

1T takes 81 votes in the convention
to nominate a candidate for Congress.
1t also takes "a votes to prevent Brown
lows nomination. His friends are
working for his nomination, and not
the defeat of any one. Several of his
opponents realizing that their nomina-
ton is impossible are now hoping
against hope, that their combired vote
will reach "a SO as to deadlock" the
convention and defeat Brownlow' s
nomination on first ballot. Washing
ton County's only chance to have the
next Congressman is to rally to the
support of Brownlow, His defeat means
n Congressman from some ot~hercoupty.
We believe the Republicans of this
county understand the situation and
will do just what is right.

THE Jonesboro Herald and Tribune
says that Alf Taylor, like all the other
Republicans, believes in the doctrine
of protection to American industries. "
Yes, they are in favor of protecting
American industries by making other
Americans pay for the luxury of the
protection. Protection to American
industries is only another name for
making n class of people pay for the
%enriching of another. -Somerville Re-
porter and Falcon.
Brother Sparks is a native of Jones,
boro, and is old enough to remember
the price at which protected articles
were sold before the days of a protec-
tive tariff. We are sure he knows the
fact that there is not an article on the
list of protected industries, but what
has been greatly reduced in price. If
protection has done this, as RepubIi-
cats claim-a thing that a revenue tar
if or free trade never done, why make
war on American industries because
some people have made money by re-
ducing prices.

forged draft sentenced 10 two years in the

said he did not wish to send man seventy-nine
years old TO the State prison
The criminal is believed 10 be Southerner OF
good family and the name Williams probably was
assumed 10 conceal his Identity and history about
city several months ago and deposited with the
Bank OF the Republic draft for 1880. which pur-
ported 10 be drawn BY the National Bank OF Wash
ington. He appeared 10 te acquainted with many
prominent men in Washington rnd his conversation
and appearance made such good impression at the
Bank o.. the Republic that he was permitted 70
draw 800 from the bank on account Of the draft.
which proved later 70 be worthless. He is said TO
have committed forgeries in many cities OF this
country.
