SEVENTEENTH DISTRICT.

The harvest is past but the labor is
by no means ended. A number of our
farmers are busily engaged in laying
by" the corr, while others are prepar,
ing the soil for a fall crop. Bill Brown
attended the picnic at Jouesboro last
week and has thus far failed to return,
greatly to the disappointment of some
of our farmers. j. b. Broderick has re-
tired from the rod business and is now
giving his attention to the farm. Henry
McCracken, the huslling poultry dealer
OF Limestone, passed through our sec
ton last week looking toi fowls. The
fourth Sunday in July is the time set
apart for the children s exercise at Oak.

has finally concluded that he ism I ''in

the contest; it would be wellif more of

r. L. Carson had the misfortune a few
weeks ago of losing a fine sow; when
she strayed from home she would have

CHERRY GROVE.

Your scribe made a flying trip to the
loyal Fourteenth District last week,
and despite the hard times we found
her people pressing forward in their
various phases of life. The first place
that attracted our attention was the
beautiful home of j. G. Osborne, where
we shared the hospitality Of his pleasant
family. Here is a new store, operated by
Osborne d Leach, which is building
up a substantial trade. We found the
genial VIM. Leach behind the counter,
welding the yardstick most gracefully.
A little further on we passed by the old
and noted Sulphur Springs Camping
Ground and a glance at it as we drove
by, brought to onr memory many
scenes of our boyhood days and many
pleasant associates. We noticed the
new residence of Joseph Hunt nearing
completion; also the residence of VIM.
Bacon which will o o be completed.
We spent the night with John Hart.
man, at Morning Star. John is one of
the best mechanics in this end of the
State. On our return home we met
our genial friend, james B.. Keys, who
is a candidate for magistrate in the
loyal Fourteenth, and from our knowl-
edge of him from boyhood up to the
present time, he is - substantial, honest,
christian gentleman, well qualified to
fill the place to which he aspires, and
If elected, which we predict, he will
reflect credit upon his district; he is an
unf1inching Republican, his father
having died in defence of his country.
Mrs. Mary Wescoat, one of the ablest
lady divines it has ever been our pleas,
ure to listen to, filled the pulpit at Ru-
bush Sunday morning; the subject of
her discourse was Deut. 10; 12;the house
was filled to overlooking and the au-
dience was held spellbound by her
brilliant oratorv for one hour. Our
farmers are well up with their work
for a fall crop. Mrs. G.. W. Jones is re.
ported seriously sick. Mrs. George
Hale is reported ~convalescent. Misses
Efie and Lula Shank, of Hascue,
Greene County, were visiting in this
section Saturday anlSunday the guests
of Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. Good. Mrs. j.
Hartman and daughter, Bessie, were
the guests of your scribe on Sunday.
u. R. Tadlock made a flying trip to his
home last week but returned to his
business Monday. Mrs. c. E. Wilhide
has returned from Bryson City, N. c.,
where her husband is engaged in the
lumber business. Let every loyal Re
publican get to the polls early ON August
9 and work for the success of the nom
inees of the grand old party, and LEI
us roll up such a majority for our can
didates that it will cause Democracy
to flee unto the mountains of Hepsedan
and mourn because there was not NOR,
boilers. KEN.

tits not at all a pleasant task fer us
to dun any one, and nothing but abso-
lutte necessity drives us to do il, but it
is hard to conduct any business with
out pay, and there are a number of
names on our books that are in arrears
for from one to three years. The pa.
per we have furnished to these parties
has cost us just as much as has those
furnished to those who pay up prompt
ly, and as W. are compelled to pay the
cash for paper and labor it is but fair
and right that all who W us pay up.
We do not want to stop any paper, as
that does not pay off old debts, and if
any are SO poor as to be unable to pay
one dollar a year, and still want the
paper, we will give it to such, provided
they will notify us of the fact.

has been studied by the teachers you
will certainly be prepared to make this
one of the very bsst normals. Teach
ers get ready to be present during the
two weeks. The State teachers will
have to be paid $40 and their expenses.
for assistant teachers. The tuition will
not exceed one dollar and fifty cents.

LIBERTY.

Situated in a beautiful sylvan grove,
in the First District of this county, is
the school house of Liberty. The sons
and daughters of the First and Second
Districts, met here, 400 strong, ON the
4th of July and enjoyed the day as only
good digestive apparatus and clear con-
sciences could have enjoyed it. The
candidate was a factor of the occasion,
and like the Seventeen year locust,
he ate his dinner and claimed a large
share of the attention of his friends.
The programme was interesting. Base
ball in the morning was followed by
music by the Bon Air Brass Band.
Then came dinner. Oh, what a charm
there is to the ears of the hungry can
didate when dinner is announced. To
say that all visitors did justice to the
god cheer of the hospitable citizens,
be putting it mild. After dinner the
exercises of the day eliminated by the
reading of the Declaration of Independ-
ence, patriotic speeches by little Ed.
Duncan, Republican candidate for the
Legislature, and our genial friend.
Jacob Leah, candidate for County
Court Clerk. 1t is said by al eye wit
ness, that while these gentlemen we're
speaking, Thomas Jefferson came
down and sat in the branches of a
great oak tree just over their heads,
and the American Eagle was heard to
scream several times up back of the
mountain. Base Ball in the evening
and some hearty hand shakes complet-
ed a day that will long linger with ever
increasing pleasant memories in the
hearts and love of those who were pres
ent. Among those apparent on the
the grounds we're G. G. Stuart, Mauck,
Hickey, Leah, Duncan and Pritchett.

The Y. NJ. T.. A. entertainment given
in Temperance Hall Thursday night,
was greeted by a good sized audience
and was one of the most pleasant and
enjoyable of the season, consisting of
a lecture entitled, THE Worlds Fair
as seen by a Columbian Gnard," by J..
Harlan Gray, and some elegant vocal
music by Messers. W. T. Laney and R..
Cloyde Hamaker. The lecture was full
of wit and humor and greeted with
hearty applause. Mr.. Gray handled
his subject in a manner which showed
he was an orator of the first water.
He has that wonderful powerof describ-
ing objects and incidents that makes
you feel that the picture he is portray
ing is in reality before you, that charm
ing style Of delivering which COM
mands the closest attention of the au-
dience. In speaking of the applica-
ton of electricity, he said: This gen.
GRAFTON was only on its border, and that
he was impressed with the idea that
nature had intended the ear rather
than the eye, as the organ of educa-
ton and that the book of the future
would be written in monograph
plates and be made to reveal its story
through the ear" The most luagh-
able thing however, was the relating
of Josiah s and Samantha's experience
with the Ferris Wheel, which was
rendered in a ann to call forth
tremendous applause.

A Washington County Boy Heard From.
The following sketch is copied from
the New Orleans Picayune of June 80,
and will no doubt be of interest to
many of our readers;
Charles S. WHY, Representative
from East Carroll, was born near Jones'
boro, Tenn, in 1857, and is the young
est son of Rev. Samuel Y. WHY, a
Presbyterian clergyman, who was for
some time Vice President of Washing.
ton College, East Tennessee. His great
grandfather was Rev. Hezekiah Balch,
the founder of ~Greeneville, College in
Greeneville Tenn.
Mr.. WHY was graduated from the
University of Tennessee, at Knoxville,
ranking first in the class of ten and be-
ing its valedictorian. For a short time
he was associate editor of the Knox
vile Daily Tribune. After studying
the common law in the office of Judge
S. j. Kirkpatrick, in Jonesboro, he came
tC Louisiana Supreme Court, and was
admitted to the bar by the Supreme
Court at Monroe in 1883. Since then

The ''Blues."

Do you eve have the blues? Do
you know what they come from? DO
you want to know how to drive them
awayl Listen:
The blues are simply a natural re-
suit OF n disorganized liver. Your liver
s~ecretes bile instead of di%scharging il.
The bile must be filtered from that which
is to make blood, and If not properly FL
tered your blood becomes impure. Then
you feel wretchedly, and /" Don know uhy
you are so blue"
Now, III two or three weeks time,
you can make yourself feel like a
new creature, with rosy cheeks, good
appetite, healthy bowels and sound
sleep at night.
Ask your druggist for RarnOn's
Tonic Liver Pills and RIA
mons Tonic Pellets. These
are two separate medicines, in sepa-
rate boxes, but both together they cost
only rs cents.
You will then have a sure treat
ment which will not only cure your
biliousness but prevent constipation
IN the future BY strengthening your
digestive system.

substitution for Corn, not only for cattle and
poultry feed, but in many localities for human
food, and for distilling, &C., cannot now be even
conjectured. That this substitution will be a
factor of moment in the future, is rendered
more than probable from the continued past
and present maintenance of Corn values several
cents above Wheat in both European and Amer
lean markets. Even for feeding purposes
Wheat, though not always preferable is more
valuable, one bushel of Wheat being for this
purpose the equivalent of ia bushels of Corn.
