RAINS, THE DRUGGIST.
HIS ELECTION SURE.
Carmack Unanimously Nominated by the
Democrats of the Tenth.

CarmaCk Unanimously Nominated by the
Democrats of the Tenth.
EDITOR COLUMBIA HERALD:--It
was my pleasant privilege to-day to
attend the Democratic Convention
of this the Tenth Congressional Dis
trict, held at the Auditorium in this
city, for the purpose of nominating
its candidate for Congress. The
counties of Shelby, Hardeman, Tip
ton and Fayette composing the dis
trict, were represented by an intelli-
gent and earnest body of nearly five
hundred delegates, whose delibera-
tions were orderly and perfectly
harmonious, overlooked and enjoyed
by an interested attendance of some
twenty-five hundred citizens, ad-
mirers and supporters of the bril-
liant and cultivated young journal
ist and statesman, E. w. Carmack,
whose name and fame are almost as
extensively heralded in the political
world to-day as that of his leader
and standard bearer, the Hon. w. j.
Bryan.
The enthusiasm displayed and
cordially extended Mr.. Carmack,
when he was brought before the
Convention and advised of his unan-
imous nomination, was counter
part to the demonstrations of de-
light witnessed at the Chicago Con-
vention. Columbians and Maury
Countians would have rejoiced could
they have shared in comforting the
honors and encomiums that were
showered upon their gifted son.
Senator Isham G. Harris was tenn
porary Chairman, and the Hon. Jno.
Overton, permanent Chairman. Rep
resentative business men, farmers
and mechanics were upon the stage,
greeting and enjoying with Mr.. Car
mack the hOnOrs that had been SO
Justly bestowed upon him.
Despite the efforts of the Jealous
and disgruntled little evening pa
pers-the Scimitar of this city, and
the Banner at Nashville-in making
it appear that there was opposition
to the candidacy of Mr.. Carmack,
not another name was mentioned,
nor the least appearance of a dis
satisfaction to his nomination was
suggested. Such unanimity of sup
port and assurances of success eX-
tended, seemed to move Mr.. Car
mack very sensibly. His address in
accepting the nomination was a
mastery and chaste effort, which
doubtless will be given in full in the
public print, and can be enjoyed by
his many admirers at his old home.
Knowing so well the high esteem
in which be is held in Maury County
prompts me to convey through your
valuable paper to his friends and
admirers, the fact of his nomination
and the certainty of his election.

FOR GOVERNOR.
ROBERT l.. TAYLOR,

THE HERALD devotes nearly two
pages of this issue to the Congress
sional muddle. We gave in our last
issue our view of the situation. We
give in this issue the views of others.
We have published both sides and
all sides, that the people as best they
could, might understand the situa-
ton. The Congressional Commit
tees endorsement of Col. Cox's NOM
ination and their appeal to Demo-
Gratis to support him, and Mr..
Cheairs' salty reply thereto, does
what? 1t simply keeps alive and
intensifies the factional fight, and
makes Republican success all the
more certain. Neither side, in our
opinion, can show the cleanest skirts
immaginable; so they had better
wash their dirty linen in private,
and take their public exercise in
lambasting the Republicans. The
HERALD gives its timely warning
and enters its earnest protest against
the Cox and Whitthorne factions
delivering this Democratic district
into the hands of the Republicans.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1896-08-28

LAST week the HERALD made edi-
torial comment of its own concern
ing the Congressional Convention of
that week; and we are pleased to
learn-from innumerable sources
that those comments met with the
outspoken, unqualified and hearty
endorsement of an overwhelming
majority of the Democrats of this
district. This week we devote more
than a page to the opinions of 9th
ers. We hope the two Democratic
candidates and their partisan friends
will read this page of extracts and
opinions from other papers, voicing
as we believe it does the opinions
and wishes Of the people as we'll,
and will learn from it the impera-
tive and patriotic duty of making
some effort to harmonic their diff
ferences. With a Populist on the
track-and there is sure to be one
and with these two Democrats run
ming, the election of Republican is
not only probable, but is almost GER
tain. In the interest of Democracy
purely in the interest of Democ-
racy, not for or against any man-we
protest against this undemocratic
feud; we protest against Democrats
knitting each other to the death, and
turning this Democratic district
over into the hands of the enemy.
Something must be done, and that
something should not be delayed
too long. If we can reach COM
promise, we would still have old
sores to heal, hence delay is danger
Gus. In the interest of Democracy
therefore, we appeal to the leaders
of the factions, to make some over
lures the one to the other.

IN the Ninth Congressional Dis
trict, where there were irregulari-
ties in the returns and general dis
satisfaction among the people, the
Congressional Committee, in behalf
of Democracy, declared the prIma-
ries off and ordered another cleo
ton. Better that, by far, than to
have two Democratic candidates in
the field. Something, looking to the
party's interest, should be done in
this district.

Wool Dress Stufs.

Almost dozen styles of all-wool
Cheviots, Mohairs, and rough effects
mostly in medium light cOlorings
In fact they were bought for early
spring wear last spring, but as sum-
mer succeeded winter, and there
was no spring with lap for winter
to linger in, we were cut out of the
sale of this lot. Judge them by any
standard, they are worth from 40c to
60c the yard.
Monday they'll be 25c the yard.
They're 38 to 40 inches wide.

CARMACK has been put forward by
the Democrats of the Tenth Congress

Gle Josiah to the rear; and he will
do it. The boilers will nominate

running in a Democratic district;
not with the hope of election, but for
reward hereafter, if the Republican,

succeed.

The Fire Bug Sill at Work.

The one story frame business
house of Prof 0. H. P. Bennett, near
the depot, occupied by Tom Shaw as
a saloon, was destroyed by fire last
Tuesday morning. Neither the
stock nor the house carried any in
surance, and the fire was evidently
the work of an incendiary. The
loss sustained on stock and building
was some four or five hundred dol
lars.

NASHVILLE AMERICANA: "Three

preachers of politics.

LAST Saturday, at Canton, Ohio,
William Mckinley addressed con-
siderable crowd of visiting delega-
tions from Pennsylvania towns. A
protective tariff was the burden of
his song, but during the course of his
remarks he condescended to pat the
Democratic boilers on the back. In
substance he says that they are pa
triots and honest fellows. Now that
the gold-bug boilers of the Demo-
cratic party have received the en-
dorsement of Mckinley, and the
CO. cooperation of the Nashville Ban
ner, they may well congratulate
themselves upon the purity of their
Democracy, and go before the coun-
try as holier-than-thou Democrats.
