EVANS AT JACKSON.
Greeted By One OF the Largest Audi.

~ ences Ever Assembled at Jackson.
Hon. Fl. Clay Evans, Republican
candidats, for Governor of Tennessee,
spoke in the Court House here to one
OF the largest and most intelligent au-
diences ever assembled in the city of
Jackson.
Republicans, POpulists and large
number of the most respectable Demo-
Gratis of the city honored him with their
presence.
Col. Evans fame as an orator and
statesman had preceded him and even
the Democrats of Jackson, who are
noted for their extreme prejudice
against Republican, were completely
captivated by his forceful and unan.
swtrable presentation of the great pc.
litical issues of the day, both State and
national from a broad and liberal yet
strictly Republican standpoint.--It was
a most emarkable speech. For elo.
quence, logic and convincing power it
has never been excelled here and per-
haps only equaled by the lamented
Horace Maynard in a speech delivered
over twenty years ago. Notwithstand-
ing Mr.. Evans was hoarse from con-
tinuous speaking day and night be-
fore his arrival here, he spoke rapidly
for nearly three hours, during which
time he received the profoundest and
most respectful attention of the large
audience. And be it said to the credit
of Democrats who were present they
came forward to the stand and many
of them were introduced to the speaker
and heartily congratulated him in the
most courteous and hearty manner for
his able, noble and strictly fair pres.
errtation of the principles and policies
OF his party. To say that Republicans,
and for that matter everybody else.
who were present, regardless of their
politics, were delighted. with the ex-,
ception of possibly bakers half dozen
of rhinoceros hided machine, SO call
ed Democrats, would be putting it
mildly. 7'' a.' ag
If Mr.. Evans could speak in every
hamlet in the State, Old man Pete
afraid ofhis record wouldn't be in it a
little bit the 9th of November next.
Everybody down here knows now why
the old Governor don t meet his compe.
tisor on the stump. He can't and
dares not attempt it. r..

How Cranberrles are Harvested.

Did you ever see cranberry bogY
Imagine board, level surface, wind
ing in and out among the low hills like
lake, but green as meadow. From
a swampO huge cedars, such as had
once covered the site of the bog itself,
little stream ran down through the
center of the plain. Atintervals, banks,
or earth crossed the bog at right angles
to this stream, in which sluice w ways
were set 80 that the bitches that divide
each section, like a chess bt ard, could
be filed, or the whole bog turned into
a lake. The vines must be carefully
defended from the frost, and this sys,
tenn OF flooding accomplishes the pur-
pose perfectly. When the berries are
ripening in. the fall, the thermometer
is carefully watched by those in charge
of the fields. Should the mercury fall
to $40 Fahrenheit, the water is at once
let in to partly cover the vines; should
1t fall even q degree lower, the whole
field is at once completely submerged.
The, vines are, particularly subject to
the attacks of insects, worms aud grubs,
in the spring, and when these pests ap
pear the meadows are flooded and the
creatures drowned, g., - . yan =
In the older portions of the bog, the
vines covered the ground like thick
carpet, several inches deep; but some
parts, just set out this summer, showed
that they only one vine about every
two and haiffeetcach way. and from
these all the others spread. A peculi-
arity of the vine is that if you scatter
broadcast, without any sort of care,
bits of the vine, six or. eight inches
long, the cuttings will take root and
grow just asif you had planted them.
The vines seems to love the water,
somehow, though it will thrive in such
arid soil, In order that the crcp shall
be q success, the whole meadow ought
to lie we'll under water from the begin
ming to the close Of the cold season.
Down among the vines the berries
lie, half hidden by their tiny evergreen
leaves. After the dew had evaporated

FRENCH.EvERSOLE FEUD.
Judge Josiah Combs Is the Last Of the

Judge Josiah Combs Is the Last Of the
"a ei1ss4 Victims. nA l j
HAZARD, KY, Oct. 17.-Judge Josiah
Comba while standing on the street,
was shot from ambush by Joe Adkins,
one of the members of the French fac
tion, while Judge Combs belonged to
the Eversole faction. V
Judge Combs died in few hours.
He had never taken part in the feud,
though he was man of wealth and in
sympathy with the Eversoles, and had
always tried to-. get the Frencfes to
trial. 1t was his influence that was
feared. ".'
Adkins is noted desperate. More
than thirty men have been killed in
this feud in the last half dozen years.
1t began with the killing of the head
of the Confederate Gambrills, strong
Breathitt County family, by the Union
Eversoles during the war. Soon the
Gambrills killed the Eversole leader,
and desultory fighting went on after
the war. Then Fulton French came
from Virginia to Hazard and taught
school and read law with Joe Eversole,
the leader Of the Eversole faction. The
Eversoles were the richest and strong
est family in the county, and they al
ways had a store in Hazard, WI hich was
the Republican headquarters. a,s q.
French rented this store from Joe
Eversole for a year and opened with his
clerk, Bob May. French and May
disagreed, and May opened just
across the street. His store was made
the Democratic headquarters of the
town. French's year was up and Ever
sole sent him word he must move OUT.
French refused for some reason, and
on the day the lease expired Eversole
drove into town with twenty wagons Of
goods, moved French into the street
land o. sned the store the next morning
himself. sT rceo. st .s Do So.
That started the war. The Gambrills
took sides with the Trenches against
their old foes, and May and Eversole,
though political enemies. Joined forces
aud i1time they assumed on each side.
Sheriffs, lawyers and judges have been
with the Eyersoles. French is said to
have hired many of his fighters. May
has left Hazard, be says, through fear
Of ssssssination.
Trouble is feared in the immediate
future, as the men on both sides are
out cunning for their enemies.

The Men Who Know.

The best object lesson that we have
seen, in the matter of Protection to
American industries and American
wage and workers, was aptly illustra-
ted on our streets last Monday during
the Labor Day parade. 1t is well
known to our readers that Gas City
has large tin plate works, which
started up business about a year ago.
1t employs about 800 hands. Many of
these came from Swansea, Wales, and
are skilled workmen. A huge tin house
had been made, which was hauled on
wagon. Behind it came an i'm
mense banner, on another wagon, and
which showed neat and beautiful work,
and in large letters read: Success to
American Tin Plates. Our motto is:
Protection" Behind these came long
line of the employees of the mill, each
man wearing an American made badge,
the Welchmen singing the songs of
their native land as they marched in
the procession. The firm of Morewood
& Company, of Swansea, Wales, and
Gas City operate this mill, and their
workmen all understand the difference
between Free Trade and Protection
scales of wages. They adopt Protec-
ton because they know it gives them
the best wages-better wages than they
receive in their own country. Is not
this an object lesson that our home
grown American wage workers can
think offavorablyp Do they need more
convincing proof that the foundation
of all wages in this country is Protec-
tive Tariff Think this over, boys, aud
recollect that the Republican party is
pledged to Protective Tariff, and that
this principle of the Republican party
is your best hope OF future success

There, is no medicine so often needed
in every home and so admirably adapt
ed to the purposes for which it is in
tended, as Chamberlain Pain Balm.
Hardly week passes but some mem
ber of the family has need of it. A
toothache or headache may be cured
by it. A touch of rheumatism or neu.
ralgia quieted. The severe pain of a
burn or scald promptly relieved and
the sore healed in much less time than
when medicine has to be sent for. A
sprain may be promptly treated before
inflammation sets in, which insures a
cure in about one third of the time
otherwise required. Cuts and bruises
should receive immediate treatment
before the parts become swollen, which
can only be done when Pain Balm is
kept at hand. A sore throat may be
cured before it becomes serious. A
troublesome corn may be removed by
applying it twice a day for a week or
two. A lame back may be cured and
several days of valuable time saved or
a pain in the side or chest relieved
without paying doctor bill. Procure
