times by North Carolina, and by France
and Spain. The leading settlement was
made in 1869 from Virginia and North
Carolina. In 1884 the settlers formed
the temporary state of Franklin. Sub
sequently North Carolina ceded its
claims to the United States, and the
territory Of Tennessee was formed in
1T9o. In 1896 the people adopted state
constitution, which was approved by
congress, and the state was formally
admitted to the union June /, 1876.

for the Agricultural building are now

some time ago, offered prize for the

aim of the exposition people to make
the Agricultural building and its con-

It is common thing to refer to the
good old times when statesmen were
orators, thrilling the masses with their
eloquence and producing lasting re-
cults in directing the policies of the
nation. Our fathers have taught us
that Daniel Webster, Henry Clay and
Stephen A. Douglas were orators whose
equals have never entered the senate
or house Of representatives.
We will probably teach our children
that Roscoe Conkling, James G. Blaine
and Matt Carpenter were the most
marvellous orators in the history Of the
world, but we may thus be mislead-

of Nashville concluded TO celebrate the
Tennessee centennial by calling into
life an exposition modelled after the
Worlds Columbian exposition at Chi

at home and in other important COM
1nercial centers of the state. The re-
sponses were gratifying, ,and the men in
charge OF the enterprise hoped to have

command attention at any time, and

| first, 3 seconds, no thirds
for the Tribune.
Then how about the great
Relay Race on the 4th Of July.
You read in "The Star" that
the 5 miles was made in 10
minutes and % seconds by a
Tribune, but we are inclined
to think this is an error. TO
be sure this time was made by
a Tribune rider, but to do it
he had to have Rambler,
and every one knows that Geo.
Martin, who holds the record
for fastest time in the Relay
Race, rode a Rambler Wheel
and thus got there. The wheels
we handle did not get their
reputation in a day, but after
a year of hard work on the
part of the makers, and now
the average racing man knows
Just about what to get for
speed and wear. This is the
reason that out of the Is
wheels ridden in the Relay
Race 9 came from US.
Ladies Wheels for 1896 are
pretty wheels, and judging
from the way ours sell we are
sure that the ladies are fast
finding it out.
Don't forget the price, $tOO
on easy terms, and cheaper for
CASH. This is for 1896
Wheels, first grade, fully guar
anteed, don't pay ten or fifteen
dollars less for a low grade
wheel, and wish you had your
money back inside of a month.
If you want to ride the
BEST, paste Rambler in your
hat and start for
