The Tobogran Slide.

The new features presented at the
toboggan slide last night brought them
the largest crowd yet known. 1t was a
perfect jam. Messra. Ryan and Wills,
two well-known amusement men, have
taken charge of the musical programme
and last night, in connection with the
military band, presented a colored quar-
tette. Announcements of the programme
were made on the streets by the hack
process and in consequence the slide did
tremendous business.

of the people; we have done more
for their relief than was ever done
by any party in the same length of
time under the sun. These are bold
words, yet | hold myself at all times
ready to defend them. Coming in
to power at a time of panic, when
business was at a standstill; when
labor was unemployed; when our
Treasury was empty, with courage
and fidelity we entered upon tie
struggle with the enemies of the
people; we emerged from that
struggle victorious in this:
eve have repealed the McKin-
ley law.
eve have greatly reduced taxa
ton.
eve have made living cheaper.
eve have made all money taxa
BILE.
eve have taxed surplus incomes.
owe have restored freedom of
ClCCIIOHS.
eve have reduced public expen-
ditures.
eve have declared undying hos
tility to all trusts and monopolies
organized for the oppression of the
people.
s'On these foundations we build
our house; on these issues we go
before the people. For them we
have fought the good fight; to them
we have kept the faith, and of
them we have no fear"
Every intelligent voter is earnest
ly requested to observe these state
ments, and be prepared to answer
the question: 'EWhat has the Dem
ocratic Congress done?"

The Dutu of Democrats.

The republicans are making des-
perate efforts to secure control of
the next hOuse-HarrisOn, Reed,
Mckinley and other leaders of their
party, have been making speeches
for weeks past all over the country.
They have adopted every conceiva-
bic method to poison the minds of
democrats. Their chief aim and
effort is to break the solid South.
Unjustly, they hold democracy re-
spOnsible for the low prices of farm
products, and the present depression
in business. From republican head
quarters, tons of misleading litrea-
ture and thousands of dollars in
money have been distributed broad
cast throughout the country, and
especially in the South. They
boast that they will make gain of
two Congressman in Tennessee
alone, one in the Third District and
one in the Eighth. Wherever to
their advantage, they make deals
with the pOpulites.
Right here in our own good coun-
ty of Hardeman, efforts have been
made by republicans, SO we learn,
to effect fusion with the pOpulites.
The democrats of Hardeman have
no votes to lose. We are on dam
gerous ground, and we must, if we
win, face the situation with a solid
front. Next Tuesday is the day of
election. All who believe in the
principles of democracy should raj
ly to the party's call. Hardeman
was once the banner democratic
county in Tennessee. Let us get
back to our proper place, at the
head of the column. If we regain
that position, we must do it By hard
work, and the time left in which to
work is short.
Before another issue of the Bull
LETIN appears, the election will be
over. We appeal to every demo-
crat to look beyond personal preiu-
diccs, go to the polls next Tuesday
and work for the success of the en-
tire ticket, from top to bottom.

cost Of production is said 70 be 10
cents a gallon. The oil men there
fore double their money on every
gallon produced. There is no
doubt that a combination has been
formed by the n anufacturers of cot
ton seed oil to reduce the price of
cotton seed. From a communica-
ton published in Sundays Com
mercial Appeal it seems that those
engaged in the manufacturing of
oil in Memphis have entered into
an agreement for the selection of an
agent who is to purchase all of the
cotton seed offered for sale in that
city, and the owners of the mills
bind themselves not to purchase
any seed except through their agent.
In order for farmers to successfully
cope with combined capital, it is
necessary for them to meet force
with force; but, in order to do so,
organization is necessary. In every
county in the cotton producing
states there should be an orgauiza-
ton of farmers and agents appoint
ed to dispose of their seed. In this
county several months ago, the Har-
deman County Farmers Associa-
ton was organized for the mutual
benefit of those engaged in agricul-
tural pursuits, but we are sorry to
state that little interest has been man
ifested in this organization. That
it is necessary to the interest of the
farmers to get together in order to
protect their interests against COM
bined capital is made more appar-
ent by the acts of the cotton seed
oil men. There is a vast deal of
truth in the aphorism, Omitted we
stand, divided we fall"

STAR OFTHE WEST STEAMER.
It's History and Other Partic-
WGrs Concerning it.

EDITORS BULLETIN:-Sunday last
| took a party of gentlemen down
in hack to the wreck of the old
steamer, "Star of the West" which
was sunk in Tallahachle River in
1861. AS the river is lower than it
has been for years, we got great
many relics from it. send you
by express a part of the hull of the
boat. / have corps of men
there this week getting all that is in
sight.
The history of the boat is as fol-
lows:
The Star of the West was the
vessel that carried General Walker
and his filibusters to Nicaragua.
She was built to run from Aspin-
wall on the route to California, and
was the first vessel chartered by the
u. S. Government to take troops
and provisions to Fort Sumpter, in
Charleston Harbor.
On the morning of January 9th,
1861, she crossed the bar at Charles
ton and was fired on by the Confed-
crates on Morris Island and Fort
Moultrie, also by the Confederate
Steamer, Gen. Clinch.
Failing to relieve Fort Sumpter,
she returned to New York, and was
again chartered by the Government
to proceed to Indianola, Texas, to
bring. off the United States forces,
that were being Withdrawn from
Texas, but were captured, April
nth, 1861, by Confederate volun-
teers from Galveston.
She was taken to New Orleans
and there loaded with stores for
Vicksburg, and was subsequently
sent at Yazoo river TO prevent cap
ture by the Federals and then was
finally sunk at Fort Pemberton on
the Tallahachie River, to prevent
the Federal feet (Gen. Grant COM
manding) from passing down the
Tallahachie River.
You see by this history OF the
boat, the value of the piece of wood
/ send you. Will send one to the
Commercial Appeal and one to Lib
by Prison of Chicago.
Remember she was the first YES
sci chartered by the U. S. Govern
ment in the recent war between the
States; was the first vessel fred on
by the Confederates;was the first YES
sci in the service of the U. S. Gov
eminent captured by the Confeder-
ates.
She carried Walker and his fill
busters to Nicaragua.
will clear up all that is left of
the wreck and have it moved to
Minter City.
The vessel is fast going to pieces.
on account of the low stage of the
river. 1t is the only chance we
have had for years to reach it.

4 Word to Hardeman Oemoc-
TQcy.


The democrats of Hardeman
County have always been true and
reliable and firm. They have won
and held the respect of their brother
democrats throughout the State.
In a most trying time in the party's
history, the democracy of Harde-
man won and held the party ban
ner, and their democratic bretheren
throughout the State knew that it
was well deserved. The voice of
Hardeman democrats in convention
has always been regarded with re-
spect and attention by the de-
mocracy of the State.
We are on the eve of a most inn
portant election and Hardeman DEM
ocrats should remember what they
owe to their party bre therein
throughout the State and should
arouse themselves to duty as here
tofOre.
We have had some division of
opinion on a most important ques-
ton, but we must remember that if
we have differed on one point, on
all others we agree. We must pre-
serve the united spirit and action of
party organization, and remember
that only through organization can
we accomplish anything-Our little
disagreement must give away. to ali
the many things in which we agree.
We must stand by our party or
ganization and our party candidate,
each and all.
Let Hardeman democracy show
her metal next Tuesday, as it has
always heretofore done, and give its
party and its candidates an earnest,
loyal, and hearty support.

tration the record of which is before
the people, its results known by ev-
cry intelligent man inTennessee; the
other republicanism, headed by H.
Clay Evans, the man who in the
halls of congress said that his peo-
pie could not be trusted but needed
to be disciplined, and voted at all
times for the odious force bill, that
your votes might be controlled by
the Federal bayonets and such as he
be counted into Office during his
natural life.
Coming from Pennsylvania to
Tennessee, he was elected by the
people of the Third Congressional
District to represent them. They
gave him their confidence; he be-
trayed the trust, and, after being
repudiated and badly beaten by
them, he has the effrontery to ask
to be made governor of this great
State.
As to the populite party, headed
by Mimms representing nothing but
wild and impractical schemes, they
are not in it, and no sane man In
the State honestly believes that its
candidate will poll twenty thousand
votes and all they can do is to help
the republican party, whose funda-
mental principles they claim to be
utterly aVerse to. Are the people
of the old Volunteer State, which
has furnished to the nation such
great men az Andrew Jackson, James
X. Polk and Andrew johnson fore
ed to go to Pennsylvania to find
governor? Have we fallen
SO low in intelligence, so utterly
void of state pride, and manly'feel
ing that should control the action of
every native born Teunessean that
we should go beyond our own bor-
ders for man to fill with ability
the Executive chair of the State.
God forbid that we ever take that
backward step. Let every man
from all parties who has any inter-
est in this State or the welfare of
its people come out to the polls on
the 9Th of November, and elect
nothing but democrats from Peter
Turney ON down and the good work
just begun will be carried on.

The manner in which the nomi-
nees of the populist party, in sever
al of the counties of this State,
are being treated by the bosses of
that party is such as would justify
them in the belief that the point has
been reached where fOrbearance
ceases to be a virtue. 1t is now no
unusual proceeding for the nomi'
ness, who were regularly nOmina-
ted for positions of trust and honor,
TO be Withdrawn by the bosses,
without being consulted, in favor
of republican nominees. In this
State, there are those who severed
their relations with democracy and
became members of the Populist
party from principle and not for
the purpose of advancing republican
ism. With such a class, il is rea~
sonable to suppose that the acts of

STATEMENT OF FACTS.
Some of the Things The Dem
0crGtic Congress Has
Done.

1t repealed the Sherman Silver
Law, which required the Govern
ment to purchase annually 4, 500, 900
ounces of silver and pay for the
same in gold obligations, thereby
menaeing the credit of the govern
ment, and imperiling the stability
of our commercial, manufacturing
and financial interests.
1t removed from tie statutes the
federal election law, the most odious
and undemocratic measure ever en-
acted, and thereby restored to the
people of the sovereign States full
control of their cleo tons, free from
the Intervention of supervisors and
deputy marshals, whose sole duties,
under republican supremacy, had
been to intimidate, arrest and inn
prison electors before they had cast
their ballots.
1t reduced the expenditures of
the government below those of the
last Republican administration more
than $2s, 900, 900, thereby relieving
the people from payment of that
immense sum into the Federal
Treasury to stimulate extravagant
jobs.
1t reformed in the various depart
ments, and by the aids of the heads
of the same dispensed with useless
positions, thereby reducing the sal
airy list more than $1,000, 900 an
nually.
1t repealed that most obn0xiols,
Informed and oppressive measure
called the Mckinley law, and SUBJ
stituted in it's stead a measure of
revenue reform that will revive trade
and restore prosperity.
1t destroyed the policy of paying
out Of the public funds in the Treas
ury, derived from taxes collected
from the people, millions of dollars
annually in the way of bounties to
aid private individuals in the prose-
cution of their private industries.
1t provided for the taxation, by
States, counties and municipalities
of more than three hundred million
of taxable values which had hereto
fore not only been exempt from tax
alton, but had enabled unscrupul-
Gus persons, by fraudulent practices,
to escape from their just share of
the burdens of domestic govern
mept,
1t placed upon the statue books
the most drastic measure against
combinations, trusts, and monopo-
lies engaged in foreign commerce
ever enacted.
1t provided for an Income tax
upon the wealth of the country,
thereby placing upon the shoulders
of the rich a due share of the bur-
dens of government.
1t recognized the dignity of labor
by providing by law national hol-
iday in the District of Columbia
upon which the working people may
cease from toll and unite in a peace
full celebration of their achievements
and triumphs
1t enacted more than two hun
lred laws for the benefit Of the peo-
pie in different sections of the coun-
Try.
