The friends of Mr.. Carr
mack have been industriously
circulating reports through
out Hardeman County that
Col. Patterson was recently
ordered to leave Somerville,
and that eggs were thrown at
him at Moscow. OF course,
this is done to injure Mr..
Patterson. The truth about
the matter is as follows, so
we are reliably informed:
Shortly after the election,
Col. Pate i receiveda tel
egram notii .ne him to come
to SOmerville Immediately.
In order to get.to SomerVille
be was compelled to go on a
special train. 1t was tele-
graphed ahead that Col. Pat
tersOn was coming. Some
friends of Mr.. Carmack as
sembled at Moscow, and as
Col. Patterson's train passed
through that town they
shouted "'hurrah for Car
mack" When Mr.. Patterson
arrived at Somerville and app
peared upon the streets, again
the Shout was repeated, "hur-
rah for Carmack." The
above is the extent of the in
suits offered Col. Patterson
on his trip to Somerville.

demand for the products of

discounting paper more read

many others oflike character,
that might be mentioned, are
truly desirable. The belief
that they would not have oc-
CURED in the event of the pre-
valency of unlimited coinage

the cause of the division of
sentiment. There is no doubt
that our financial system

A TORRENT OF GOLD.
Sub-TYeaSuHeS Almost Sub
merged by the Rush of YELL
lou Metal.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Nov. 9.
"A Golden torrent has been sub
merging the United States Sub
Treasures since Wednesday morn
ing last, which has risen so high
that some of the Sub-Treasuries are
begging for time within which to
court the gold and get the paper
money to pay for it. The resources
of the Treasury are being severely
taxed to meet the demands for pa
per notes of all denominations,
which the holders of gold are eager
to obtain in exchange for more bull
ky yellow metal. The kilograms
of distress which reached the Treas
urer Morgan during the critical
hours of January ar February, '95,
and again during the heavy gold
lc IS last summer are NJ turned
into a plea for gre ,nbac's, Sherman
NJ .es and silver certlL les instead
of for gold coin. Rep ports reach the
Treasury from various directions
that merchants are P9ying gold across
their counters 70 their employees or
In change for large bills. "The
scramble for gold," which formed
so frequent theme of Mr., Bryan's
lamentations, has ceased as. sudden
ly as it arose, and the flow of the
metal into the markets of the coun-
try recalls the famous outpouring of
the gold and silver in France
when the legal tender quality was
taken away from the masses of de-
preciated paper assignats. Assistant
Treasurer O'Neil, atBoston, is being
supplied as rapidly as possible with
large notes to pay for the gold depos-
it's which are offered him by the
leading bankers. The gold reserve,
which was officially stated at one
hundred and fourteen million, nine
hundred and fifty seven thousand,
one hundred aud eight dollars on
Thursday, had climbed Saturday
to close to one hundred and twenty
million, and the reports received by
telegraph represented only part of
the big influx of the yellow metal.
The official figures of the morning
were one hundred and eighteen mil
hon, five hundred and fifty three
thousand, FIVE -hundred and eighty
six dollars, but this did not include
1915, 900 deposited in the New York
Sub Treasury on Friday, nor depos-
its of 5000, 900 al San Francisco and
$f75, 900 at Boston. These amounts
definitely reported are believed to
be only fraction of the amounts
which are already awaiting exami-
nation, or which will be covered in
to the Treasury as soon as they can
be handled.

WHEAT advanced six cents
a bushel last week, and two
cents a bushel on last Mon
day. 1t is to be regretted
that the farmers of Harde-
man, will derive no benefit
from the rise because of hav-
ing none of that cereal for
sale. Instead of being sellers,
they are, with but few excep-
tons purchasers, therefore the
enormous advance in wheat
since harvest will be a disad-
vantage to the farmers of this
country instead of an advan~
tage. The short crops in Eu-
rope will, no doubt, prevent
the purchasing of flour at
prices of six and twelve
months ago. In fact, it is
probable that wheat VIII COM
mand a better price within
he next two or three years
than for the last three years
because the indications are
that the surplus in this coun-
try will be exhausted in sup
plying the European demand.
1t is not yet too late to SOW
wheat in this county, and if
the farmers will watch the
market rep they may be-
come convinced that it will be
to their interest TO grow at
least a sufficient amount of the
cereal for home consumption.

HOzg to PreUent CrOup.

Group is terror to young moth
ers and to post them concerning the
cause, first symptoms and treatment
is the object of this item. The or
igin of Group is common cold. Chill
dren who are subject to it take cold
very easy, and Group is almost sure
to follow. The first symptom is
hoarseness; this is soon followed by
a peculiar rough cough, which is
easily recognized and will never be
forgotten by one who has heard it.
The time to act is when the child
first becomes hoarse. If Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will disappear.
Even after the croupy cough has de
veloped it will prevent the attack.

Fdyette's Returns.

There are now evidences of fraud
attaching to the Fayette county cleo
ton furnished by suspicious pack
age sent from that neighborhood to
Secretary of State, which was found
to contain only newspapers and 9th
er rubbish.
Some days ago mandamus pro-
eeedIngs were begun in FaYette
County on behalf of Hon. Josiah
Patterson to prevent Sheriff BOs-
well, of Fayette County, forwarding
his returns to the Secretary of
States Office, and it was then stated
that the returns had already been
sent.
But, though this statement was
made several days ago, the returns
have not yet come into Secretary
Morgan's hands, and it requires
only eight hours for letter to come
to Nashville from Somerville.
Yesterday the following telegram
was received by a gentleman in
Nashville, from reliable parties in
Memphis:
package from Sheriff of Fayette
left Whiteville Thursday, receipted
for by Morgan Friday. Find what
it contained. Rumor it contained
rubbish"

IT may be truthfully said
that the interests Of the
Southern people are more in
common, than other sections
Of this country. This being
true, when differences arise,
touching matters political, it
is because Of disagreement
rs to the best means to ac-
+complish the end that all de-
sire to attain. That we differ,
and differ honestly, as to the
means to be employed is
too apparent to admit of a
doubt. At no time in recent
years, was the division olsen
timent so great in the South,
as during the campaign just
closed. Each class desired
prosperity, and had they been
IN harmony as to policy theI e
would have been no discord.
But the plan proposed by
one class to gain prosperity
was bitterly opposed by the
other, because of the belief
that the proposed legislation
would be injurious instead Of
beneficial. The BULLETIN,
while it supported Bryan, did
not surrender its convictions
that the policy by him advo-
Gated would, If practiced,
prove detrimental to the in
terests of this government,
and the occurrences since the
election confirm us IN the be-
lief entertained. The stock
market, the quickest to re-
spond to either good or bad
news, or legislation, has ad-
vanced; gold, that only a few
months ago bonds were sold
to procure, is now flowing
rapidly into the treasury and
through the avenues of trade;
the buzz of the wheels of
factories that have been
idle, proclaim that already
there is an increase of busi-
ness in the commercial world,
and with an increase in bust
ness there will be a greater

that the returns in the late election
for congressman In the Tenth con.
gressional district purport to give a
majority of the votes cast to Mr.. E.
w. Carmack as the congressman to
the Fifty-fifth congress, by a ma
jority of 400. The gross frauds
perpetrated by the supporters of
Mr.. Carmack have been thoroughly
Investigated and I am convinced
that 1 have been legally elected by

thousand votes.

John r. McLean's
Great NEWSPAPER.

Without single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer
or more successful publisher than
its proprietor, Mr.. John r. Mclean
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
its circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour.
nails failing to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
of the campaign year was offered at
SO cents year, and its circulation
increased by the addition of over
900, 900 new subscribers the most
substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr.. Mclean frankly answers !:
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. By
maintaining the price of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which cheaper
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
1t incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and en-
terprise in minor matters as well as
those of greater magnitude.
