w. P. WALTON.

WE are glad to report from informa-
ton received from all over the county
that the political outlook is much i'm
proved. The warning made in a re-
cent issue of this paper has had
the effect Of putting democrats on
their mettle and the true aud faith
full have gone to work with that
earnestness, which insures success. Some
OF them may feel little sore, but when
they considered the possibility OF turn
ing the county over to the negroes and
their white allies, they determined that
il shall not be done with their consent.
1t is passing strange that any man claim
ing to belong to the party oil principle
aud good government could Tor mo
ment realize the probability oil repuoh-
can success and not determine to thwart
it by every means in his power. The
democracy has put up clean ticket oil
honest and capable men, who represent
interests in common with all the people,
and the affairs of the county will be safe
in their hands and it behooves democrats
to work for the ticket until the last foe
expires on election day and vote it from
eend to eend," by putting the X mark
under the rooster as it appears elsewhere
in this paper. There is no possible hope
for the republicans il every democrat is
faithful to his trust and we hope and be-
lieye that there will be little scratching
Let us give the boss and his negro min
ions such black eye this time that they
will never dare show up again.

THE golden wedding of the grand old
man of the Courier-J ournal, Mr.. w. n.
Haldeman, and the no less excellent
woman who has for 50 years filled his
life and home with sunshine, was cele-
brated Tuesday at their spacious home
in Louisville, in an impressive though
Informal way. Over 500 friends called
during the evening to speak words OF
congrstulation and good wishes, and the
event was pleasant one to all who par
ticipated. Mr.. Haldemsn is one OF the
erandest characters in the State and all
who know him unite in hoping that his
diamond wedding can be duly celebra-
ted.

THE decision of Judge Helm that the
republicans have no right to the use OF
the eagle as ballot device, because it is
a National emblem, seems to be borne
out by the law. The eagle is nearly as
much of a National emblem as the flag
and that can not be used on ballots. Be-
81 les the eagle is too nice bird to rep

Mr.. Demaree did not comply with the
law, he has with Gov. McCreary's con-
sent and the advice of counsel, put his
name on the ballots apy way. DIR. Rob-

On the third page OF this six page edi-
ton will be found some mighty interest
ing democratic reading, besides pictures
of the honest and capable men, for whom
the democratic party asks you to vote
and fac smile of the ballot to be voted.
Read the page carefully, look at the men
closely and compare them with the rag,
tag and bobtail crowd on the other side,
and you will be sure to put your X where
we have, under the rooster.

THE Mddlesboro correspondent OF the
Courier Journal writes that he can prove
every word of his statements that a
whole masked battery and several bar
rels of whisky were found near his city
and asks us to withdraw the charge that
he is a near relative to the princeof liars.
We do so cheerfully, especially since he
winds up his note by "hurrah for
Stone" A good democrat can not be an
untruthful man.

il YOU will be as kind to young prohi-
ZIONIST, l would like through your COL
umns to reply to few things suggested
by "An Old Prohibitionist." He says,
which is certainly true, that IL our party
stands for anything, it stands for good
morals, good homes, &c, and then to my
utter surprise advises us to vote for the
county nominees of one OF the old whis-
ky parties.
He offers as an excuse that we have
no county candidate and / want to say
right here to my prohibition friends
that the failure Of our party to have
county ticket was a fatal mistake. What
a glorious opportunity 1t would have
been TO have ascertained just how many
genuine party prohibitionists there are
in this,county.
made an earnest appeal day or so
since to couple OF heretofore prohibi-
ton brethren to try to convince them
that there was too much whisky mixed
up in this great battle that Is now being
waged between the two old parties in
this county, for any prohioitionist 10
have anything to do with either side.
They very politely informed me that the
republican nominee for county Judge
was as good a prohibitionist az they
wanted and il elected he would be an
ideal prohibition judge, and referred
with seeming pride to his past record as
an anti-whisky man, opposed TO saloons
under all circumstances. l admitted
that Mr.. Dawson has all along been pos
ing as a very strong anti-saloon man,
but that he is now on the mourners
bench, trying to get forgiveness Tor u,
and is arguing day and night at the
throne OF few saloon men, who are
democrats, to try to convince them that
he was all the time joking about 1t and
that he is the man to lead them out oil
the wilderness, and that If they will only
for this one time renounce their democ-
racy, become political renegades for all
time to come and assist the 'niggers" in
electing him, that he will never, no new
or oppose their interests again.
then referred to Mr.. Givens, the
democratic nominee, and told them that
from a prohibition standpoint we could
expect nothing at his hands, as he would
he elected by the democrats, Dawson
couldn't persuade that he was bet
ter whisky man than Givens and that
Of course Mr.. Owens would haye to
stand by his whisky friends.
So upon the whole, as our party hsd
made the mistake of not nominating a
ticket, that We could not afford to go
back to either of 1.-THE old whisky parties
and that therefore We had better be per-
fectly passive in this race and save our
selves for future contest.
Both of the old parties will vote solid
for their respective candidates, notwith'
standing Mr.. Davidson and his iriends
think they have seduced few demo-
Gratis. but you will see that both OF the
old whisky parties will follow their lead
ers in spite OF faith; then why should
prohibitionists have anything to do with
either OF them ? say hands OF and let
them fight it out.

years preceding 1894 has caused the
once well known "Wlohita Valley TO

this Wichita valley country is coming
back to its past record as one OF the
finest wheat and oat countries in the
state.
The rainfall in Knox county has been
abundant this season and stock on the
range are in as good condition as any
corn fed cattle could be. Grass *
abundant everywhere and Is often
more than knee high while stock wa
ter Is more than plentiful. Wheat and
oats are much better than they have
been in the past record Of the county,
and oNSn and sorghum, especially the
latter Just can not be beaten in "any
mans country" Sorghum is SO thrifty
that 1t is impossiblse to cut Il with n
binder at all, hence the old style cut
ting with corn knife has to be adopt
ed. Johnson grass Is more than n foot
higher than Il mans head on a horse
