THE Republicans, who supported An
derson and Milburn and are now en-.
thusiastic for Brownlow, show to the
world that as highly as they regard
and would honor their personal favor
ties, they more highly value their party
principles and the success of their party
ticket. There is practically no dissen-
sion in the Republican party in this
Congressional District-its legions are
marching in an unbroken column un.
der the Mckinley banner of Protection
and Honest Money and will vote for
every candidate who asks their suf-
frage under these tcolors. The Repub.
licans of this district will turn a deaf
ear to the ISLANDERS and abuse hesped
upon Brownlow by his malicious and
INSCRIPTIONS personal enemies, and are
determined to have a Representative in
harmony with President Mckinley and
a Republican Congress regarding all
measures for preserving q sound cur
rency and the national credit and for
restoring employment to the toiling
millions and prosperity to the whole
country. Mark our words, Those en-
gagged in the u~tterance and dissemina-
ton of vile and dirty calumnies against
Brownlow at this late day are only in
creasing his strength and popularity
with the masses.

TILLMAN is a statesman, ope of the
ablest lawyers in the State and one OF
u most incorruptable citizens. He
has made a brilliant and effective can
vass. He has gone down into the
cesspool of Democratic administrations
and thrown up to the sight of the peo-
pie its fostering rottenness. De has
amply sustained every charge he has
made by the facts cited from the record
facts that could not be and have not
been denied. Thousands of Democrats
will vote for him, knowing that If
elected his administration will be clean
and that he win make a most capable
Governor. Those who have made a
study of the situation and closely
watched the drift of popular sentiment
and feeling believe the odds are in his
favor. If every Republican in the
State does his duty and comes out to
the polls his election is certain. The
best indication of Tillman's growing
strength and popularity is the fear
that has seized the Democratic mana
gers and the extraordinary efforts they
are making in behalf of Robert. Ths
towns and cities are against the Demo.
cratic champion on account of his
rotten money p~roclivities and his entire
dependence is on the machine and the
rural districts.

The ingenuity of the silvercrats has
exhausted itself in ~inventing falsehoods
and delusions to deceive and mislead
the voters, but their failure to capture
the Government and ruin the nation
will be the most signal and tremendous
failure ever recorded in the history of
this country. Mckinley and Hobart
will win and u Republican Congress
will be elected. No true Republican
a afford to fail to contribute his In.
luence and vote to achieve this glori-
u result. Every Republican must be
loyal to his flag and party principles.
He can not do his duty and leave the
name of one Republican candidate off
his ticket. Victory in every contest and
along the whole line is the aim and
ambition of every unadulterated Simon
pure Republican, and he feels that he
will not be released from party service
until the polls close next Tuesday.
Every Republican should now be up
and doing, not working specially for
anyone candidate but for the whole
ticket from top to bottom and from
bottom to top.

SOME Of the free silver orators are
abusing the gold dollar, and calling it
a dishonest dollar, because it is at a
socalled premium sometimes This is
foolish. The gold dollar is at all times
simply a dollar, nothing more, worth
just 100 cents any place. But if an in
dividual, a corporation or a nation
wants to borrow gold, it can get at a
fair rate of interest from the holders
thereof. If more than a fair rate of in
terest is demanded it is not because of
an increased value in the metal, but
because OF a loss of confidence in the
financial stability of the borrower.
When gold was at a premium of 100
cents, 1t was 80 simply for the reason
that money lenders had lost faith, to
that extent in the stability of the Gov
eminent and demanded the premium
as a compensation for the greater risk
they saw in investment.

SarsaparilIa
ALMOST 70 tHe eXcTIsIUTI OF vi U'IVT'' :"

A NATTER OF SUPREME IMPORTANCE.

"A va ~ ARl
The Republicans should spare no
pains or efforts to elect their Legisla.
tive ticket, and this among many other
reasons, is the most potential one. 1t
is TO- as certain as anything can he
that has not happened that Tillman
will be elected Governor of Tennessee.
A clean, capable man, advocating the
reforms that our impoverished and ring
ridden State so much needs, he has
brought to his support thousands of
intelligent and patriotic men who have
hitherto voted the Democratic ticket.
The we'll known fact that Taylor is the
candidate of the Democratic machine
coupled with his refusal and inability
to defend his own and the Turney I'D
ministrations, his childish petulance
and wrath, his abuse of men who pub.
lished his official record aud that of
his friend Turney to the world, his fail.
ure 10 propose any remedy for the evils
that aflict the State, and his discus
sions of national questions, with which
he has nothing to do, to the exclusion
of State issues, have driven from his
support votes that he can not lose and
still be elected.
II Tillman is elected by a majority
that a be nulliied by Democratic
%rascality, another rape of the Guber-
material Office will be on the tapis. 1t
was demonstrated two years ago that
the machine has no regard for decency,
honesty or public sentiment. The same
disreputable clan is running the Demo-
cratic party now. 1t will manage its
business after the election Herein
lies the danger.
To prevent another such an outrage
as the steal Of the State, it is the duty
of the Republican party to send as
many Representatives to the Legisla-
ture as possible--men who have the in
telligence and courage to fight these
cunning and conscienceless despoilers.
Every Republican elected to the Legis-
lature lessons eAe chance and abridges
the opportunity Of another steal, and
adds at the same time to the probabll.
ity Of rectifying the wrongs and abuses
now upon the people.
These are potential reasons for max
ing a stroug and mighty effort to elect
o Legislature that will have some con-
science, some little regard for decency,
honesty and the opinion of the better
elements Of ociety.
In view of the recent past and what
may be attempted in the neal future,
the character of the next Legislature
becomes q matter OF supreme impor-
lance to all who haye justice and right
and have the best and highest interests
of the State at heart.

ANOTHER QUESTION FOR MR.. BRYAN TO
ANSWER.

ANOTHER QUESTION FOR MR.. BRYAN TO
ANSWER.
We find the following in the Couri err
Journal, October 8, 1896.
Would an American silver dollar
under free and unlimited coinage be
worth as much in the London market
as 1T brings today, being quoted at 100
cent minus two per cent. rate of ex-
change, whilst a Mexican silver dollar
which contains about five grains more
silver and is 70 100 finer is quoted at
80 cents?n
Now, If Mr.. Bryan can prove that
the Mexican silver dollar ia not un.
favorably affected in this instance BY
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer in Mexico | shall cheerfully vote
for him next November.
r. s. WILLARD.
Gladstone, Tenn.
This is certainly affair proposition,
and at the same time the question asked
goes right to the corr of the matter.
With his vast store Of knowledge on
the money question and after having
grappled with gold kings of Wall
Street and the plutocratic forces OF the
whole country the inspired prophet of
free silver should be able to illuminate
the understanding of the questioner
and explain the mystery that is per.
picking the minds of thousands of
others who would like to hear Mr.,
Bryan or any other free silver advo-
Gates on this point.

a patriot who can sympathize with her
in her humiliation, low estate and dis
~tresses, a capable man who can deliver
her from the iron grip of demagogues
and cormorants, give her good govern
ment and wipe the tarnish from her
name, che needs him now. She will
run no risk and make no experiment
when she selects Hon. ueorge N. Till
man. But he must have q Legislature
that will support and uphold him in
this task of renovation and reform. 1t
is essential, therefore, that every Leg
islative candidate, who will be an
obstacle in the work OF a thorough
cleanup and fumigation of the Govern
ment at Nashville, be defeated at the
polls next Tuesday. This can easily
be doneif every Republican and friend
of good government do their duty.
AS to the Congressional contest, we
have e and over again cited the
reasons why Mr.. Brownlow should be
sent to Congress. He is an alert, train.
ed, capable man who has equipped
himself specially for this high station.
His aptitude for political life is phe.
nomenal. Along this line his knowl-
edge is intuitiye as well as acquired.
His acumen, caution, immovable self
possession and precedence make him
a trustworthy politician. His zeal
never rum ahead of his judgment. His
acquaintance and influence with the
leading men of the country will give
him power. He is a man Of resources,
and when one door is closed against
him he tries another, and so on, until
he finds an entrance and accomplishes
his purposes. he will represent all
the people with conscientious and un-
faltering fidelity. Hates, he has none.
Revenge is foreign to his open, genial
nature. He belongs to that class Of
fallible mortals who would despise
themselves if they were malicious.
Mr.. Brownlow is the choice of the Re-
publican party and the Republican
who votes against him must have very
loose ideas of party loyalty. To secure
the fruits Of a Republican victory we
must have q Republican Congress as
well as a Republican President. Per-
sonal motives and feelings have no
place in this campaign. Individual
preferences and personal animosity are
brazen intruders where there is so
much of national Importance at stake.
No one votes for Mr.. Brownlaw for his
sake alone, but because he will make
a good Representative, and because
he stands for Republication and all it
implies and will do his part to make
the st. Louis platform the law of the
land.

AS the bullion value of the metal in
a silver dollar is now but 40 cents,
where does the other 81 cents of value
come in Simply from the credit Of
the Government. 1t would be real
nice if Uncle Sam should open the
mints and coin the metal of the silver
mine owners and lend them his credit
to the amount OF 81 cents on every dol
lar piece coined. But then he won't
do anything Of the kind.

The very few so called Republicans,
who are engaged in the dirty, cowardly
and traitorous work of traducing
Brownlow and attempting to defeat
him by disrupting the Republican
party will receive such a rebuke at the
polls as will be "a plenty to silence
them in all the future.
