The Centennial Appropriation.


Editor Herald and Tribune.
EMBREvILLE, TENN, October 80, &c.
AT a recent meeting of our County
Court, it was resolved to appropriate
the sum of so, 900 for the purpose of
making al exhibit Of this county's re-
sources at the Tennessee Centennial. I
now understand that a move is being
made in the direction of resembling
this appropriation, and l write to you,
as being the best medium to reach the
public, to respectfully suggest that it
would be well to have the feeling of
the people at large before taking such
action.
Washington County is the third
w%ealthiest county in East Tennessee,
or, at least, 30 the tax returns would
seem to indicate; its people are intelli-
gent and progressive; they have re.
sources equal to any that the writer
has ever seen; they have in their midst
as county seat, the old Capitol of the
State of Franklin, and it does seem to
me, as a voter, that the county should
not only be represented, but represented
to the best of its ability. With our
magnificent forests of poplar and hard.
wood, our rich agricultural country,
and our mineral to be added
to the old archives. photographs of our
old buildings, etc., there is no question
but that this county ought to make one
of the finest displays in the State, and
as a representative citizen of the Sixth
District, raise my voice in objection to
any effort being made to withdraw the
sum of $4,000 already voted for.
l am, Sir, respectfully yours,

Aiding Her Husbands Contest.

WASHINGTON. April lO.-The unusual
spectacle OF a woman appearing in a con-
tested election case was presented this
morning i'm House Elections Committee
No. /. The committee were considering
the contest Of william IL. FELTON, against
John ". Maddox, from the Seventh GeOr-
gia district. A dispute arose as 10
statement made by a justice of the peace
named Gaines. in which 1t appeared that
he had agreed TO certain things. The
counsel for Maddox produced an affidavit
from Gaines denying that he had made
such a statement. whereupon Mrs. Eel
ton. the wife Of the contestant arose and
briefly addressed the committee. The
controVerted statement appeared in Mrs.
Felton's handwriting. and she asserted
that she wrote 1t at the request of Gaines,
she acting for the moment as his amanu-
ensis.
The circumstance was then developed
that Mrs. FELTON,. who has a bright in
telectual face. and who showed by her
manner and conversation that she was
a woman Of unusual ability, had assisted
her husband in his several campaigns for
Congress. and that in the present contest
she has been retained as one Of his
counsel.

Unable to Reach an Agreement Dissolves.
New Organization Probable.

CLEVELAND, o.. April l0.-The Mer-
chants Bar Iron Association of the United
States is no more. After stormy SEES
sion at the Weddel House tonight the
members unanimously agreed that 1t
would be impossible for them To ever come
TO an agreement, and the meeting was for
mally dissolved. The death of the asso-
citation was due TO the fact that IL could
not control the output, and many OF lis
members refused To be bound by its ac-
ton in the effort TO raise prices because
Of fear of outside competition. For three
days the association has held secret ses-
sions three times day. and each one
was marked by the utmost dissension
and total inability TO agree. Representa-
tives from everywhere where bar iron is
manufactured In the United states were
present. After the death of the associa-
ton a number OF the delegates met and
discussed the possibility Of forming new
association. No action was taken, but
another meeting will be held tomorrow,
when the matter will he fully discussed.
