When the desolating fact Of impaired vigor
comes home to men the force of the blow is
crushing They know themselves inferior
to their fellows, and they shrink from COM
panionship. Their ambition is gone, and
hope with it. When hope vanishes despair
takes its place. All this is without warrant,
for these men can be cured. DR.. Greene, the
famous specialist in mems diseases, has found
the remedies that restore vitality in men.
These remedies build up and strengthen,
and thousands of men walk the earth to-day
who have been permanently restored to
vigorous manhood by their use. Weakness
vanishes, hope and ambition return, and the
patient is truly a new man. DR.. Greene's
glorious discoveries are the safeguard of
many thousand homes to-day, His wonder
full Nervura alone has made him famous.
You may consult Dr. Greene at his office, 35
West 14th Street, New York City, or write to
him, and there will be absolutely no charge
for consultation OF advice in either case,
whether you call or write. The system of
treatment by mail is perfect, and is abso-
lutely confidential.

FRAUD In EAST TENNESSEE.

The machine in Nashville has de.
clared that they have found evidence
of the polling of II, 900 illegal Republic
can votes in the three Congressional
Districts of East Tennessee, and say
they a prove the charge. No doubt
they will prove all they claim, for it
will be the business of the gang to see to
1t that no witnesses are summoned but
will do just as they are instructed to.
While a contest, properly conducted
and with a determination to ferret out
wrong doing at the ballot box, would
be all right and should be Of benefit to
the State, nc one for a moment doubts
the result of the contemplated, socalled
contest. Tho experience of two years
ago has been Of benefit to those who
will again seek to thwart the will of
the people as expressed at the polls.

Revival meetings have been going on
for the past two weeks In this vicinity.
Rev. John Watson, of Sullivan County,
has been holdings revival at New Sa-
lem Church. We feel sure that much
and lasting good has been done our
people. Mr.. Watson is a member of
the Baptist Church and q Christian
gentleman. Many Of our young peo-
pie have been enjoying themselves by
way of socials and dances. On tho
evening of December 28, G. G. Stuart
and wife gave a dance in honor Of Eu.
gene Stuart and Miss Mable Cannon;
the guests were numerous and all re.
port a nice time. The music was fur
nished by Mr.. Stuart. White Bayles

and young ladies of this neighborhood
on Wednesday night, December 80; all
went off lovely and every person that
was present enjoyed themselves.

proval of the principal tax payers of
this section. A bridge is badly needed
at that point. 1t would afford accom-

would cheerfully pay the small tax it
would require to construct one. Our
magistrates will do all within their
power to get the County Court to levy
an additional tax sufficient to build it.
They are opposed to issuing bonds for
the purpose and in this they are right.
A small tax levy will pay it., while
long time bonds proved q curse to this
county once and might be again. By
all means let the bridge be built. Our
merchants herea all report an excellent
trade during the holiday season. Our
people are universally opposed to our

Hon. II. CLAY EVANS may not be in
the cabinet, but M thing is certain
and that is that Walt Brownlow will
never be returned to Congress from
this District Morristown Republican.
II we are not mistaken the Republi-
can declared that Mr.. Brownlow would
not be elected to Congress in the late
election, and we do not have any
reason to believe that its guess now
will be any nearer the truth than be-
fore. Its apparent solicitude for Mr..
Evans does not arise from any real
love for him, but arises from its enmity
toward MIR. Brownlow.

THE GUBERNATORIAL CONTEST.

To prosecute the Gubernatorial con-
test will require some money and Re.
publicans in the various counties will
be called upon to raise it. Letters have
been sent, we are informed to the
Chairmen of County Committees urg.
ing them to assist in raising the money
required. A small amount from each
Republican will be sufficient and the
Chairman of each county ought to raise
something. Do not be deferred by the
apparent smallness of the amount, take
what you can get and send 1t at once
to A. NJ. Tillman, Treasurer of the
State Committee, Nashville.
One cent from each Republican vo.
ter in East Tennessee would secure a
fund amply sufficient. There are hun
dreds of Republicans who will gladly
contribute as much as q dollar for
such a purpose. The money will be
used for legitimate purposes, but the
investigation and the prosecution Of
the contest can not be carried on with.
out some money. The Republicans be-
lieve they have a good case and that
they will win. The prosecution of the
contest is a patriotic duty, and good
citizens will esteem 1t a privilege to
contribute something to help make 1t
thorough and successful
journal.
