CARD TO REPUBLICANS

To the republicans of the second
Congressional District:
Having received majority of
over one thousand of the votes cast
at the primary election on March
10th, l nave been made the nomi-
nee of the republican party of this
congressional district.
To all who gave me encourage
ment, to all who gave me their
good will and L cir active help, and
especially to all who gave me their
votes, return my heart felt thanks
and grateful acknowledgements, and
assure them that their kindness
and generous assistance will long
inspire me with gratitude-a graft
tude that l hope to manifest by
hard work for my people and my
party, both at home and in con-
prresS.

q failure. Without him the burdens
on the backs Of the people would
still be oppressive. In the name of
al the taxpayers Of Tennessee, we
thank him. He has been the tsxpay-
ers' representative. Would that
fortune had granted us more such
men in the legislature. They will
recognize their friend and champion.
His name is this day known and
honored by all parties all over the
state. Honor to those who deserves
honor-honor to the representative
from Campbell"
In 1886, he was elected Chancery
Judge for the Second district As
a Judge his record stands second tc
none. During the first part Of hi.
term, and some time previously, he
|
spent a great deal of time in the
preparation of a law book: "Gibsor
on Chancery Practice" which will
in due time be adopted all over thu
state as authority on the CHANGER,
practice. Eminent lawyers all owe
this country and England endorse
the volumn.
Thus it will be seen that Mr.
Gibson is eminently qualified TO
the honors to which he aspires, ant
: that he is no pigmy, but has nam
,, already known to fame.

FOLLOW BART'S EXAMPLE.

Bart Lindsay did the proper thing
when on Monday morning he an
nounccd that he was satisfied that
Houk was beaten, and that hence
forth he was for Gibson, the nomi-
nee of his party. His paper, the
Knoxville Republican, appears this
week with Gibson's banner unfurled
to the breezes. This is the proper
step for all loyal Republicans of the
Houk faction, and Bart is one OF
this character. He was an ardent
supporter OF John c. Houk in all
his campaigns, and it was on his
brain much of Johns success de-
pended. He was in his campaign
until the people rose up last Satur-
day and proclaimed that Henry h.
Gibson should succeed him; and
then like a true and courageous
fighter, he acknowledged defeat
and endorsed and Congratulated the
victor. There are some other Re-
publicans who could follow this
example of their Chancellor with
honor to themselves. Because 0
man has supported Gibson or Houk
should not in any way eepreciate
his value as Republican. 1t was
a family fight and someone ha to
be loser. Let those who are victorI

HENRY R. GIBSON.

The little Tennessee Napoleon,
is Sc years Of age and a native Of
Maryland.
In 1867 he came to Jacksboro
and began the practice of the legal
profession in Campbell and adjoining
counties. He soon earned a great
name as a lawyer of extraordinary
ability. His services in behalf Of
Campbell county will never be for
ten by her people. They will
always hold in their hearts Of
memory warm spot for Mr.. Glib
son.
In 1870 he was a member of the
Constitution convention, which
framed the constitution of the
State. $50
In 1871 he was a member of the
State Senate; and in 1875 he was an
active and leading member of the
House of Representatives.
OF his record in the term of the
legislature, the Nashville Bulletin,
of Marsh 25th, 1875, under the head
of AFaithful Legislator, latter com.
menting on some of the bills pu
through by MIR. Gibson, concludes
as follows:
at will thus be seen that the bill,

A MAJORITY NOMINATION.

The republicans VINO opposed me
and voted against me. were doing
no more than exercising their free
bonn of choiJe: they had as much
right to oppose me as my friends
had to favor me. Those republi.
cans who voted for my opponent
and those who voted for me, were
doing what our laws and customs
gave them the full flee liberty of
doing. The primary election was
a method of choosing some one
man to be the candidate of our
party for congress, and 1t was
agreed by all, that the man who
got the most votes should be that
candidate,even though he got only
one more vote than his opponent.
Hon. William G. Anderson, who
was nominated for congress at
Morristown on March by the re-
publicans of the first congressional
district, received in the convention
that nominated him majority OF
only seven-tenths of one vote, and
yet all five of his opponents at once
gave him their hands and pledged
him their support. There were six
candidates in the first district, the
convention was in cession two days
and there were Ia ballotings. The
excitement was great and the ri.
valry between the candidates and
their friends was intense. Never
theless, when, at the Hath ballot
ing Mr.. Anderson received SO and
40 votes out of 106 votes thus Civ
ing him majority of only seven
tenths of one vote he was at once
declared the nominee of the party
and all of his opponents came uI
and gave him their hands and
promised to support him and he Is
now the lawful and admitted nom
inee of our party and is receiving
the hearty support of every repub
iican in his congressional district.
LOYA LTY TO PARTY.
| Those democrats whe are striv
ing so earnestly to create divisions
and discords in our ranks, will flint
that the republicans of this con

the republicans of the first congress

United States are the republican
any truer to their party and
