on that occasion. With best wishes,
Sincerely yours,
ID. Owincs.

P. S:-Should Judge Gibson desire to
speak kindly notify me at your earliest con-
venience. F. d. o.
Gibson absolutely refusede to
meet "Dock" alleging as his reason
that there were so many candidates
in the field that he wished to wait
until 1t was decided who should be
against him. He did not wish to
begin on one man solitary and
alone.
He has had a joint discussion
with all the other candidates but
"Dock". He spoke jointly with
BuItram at Wartburg, and with
Buttram, Penland, Greer and Rod
gers at Sevierville, dividing time
with them. In view of these facts
we don't believe his excuse was
honest. Why meet all the Others
and refuse to meet Owings?
1t will be remembered that when
the candidates were here at Mary
vile and Owings was present Glib
son refused to speak with them,
"ganged off by HIMSELF and spoke
the next day. He also notified
"Dock" that he would not refer to
him in any way.
To man who is not blind it
doesn't look as though this excuse
that he didn't want to speak be-
cause the other candidate were not
, there is not we'll taken.
Why didn't he meet Owings
then? Because Gibson knows that
he has .systematisally deceived
the people of this Congressional
, District for thirty years. He knows
that Owings has the proof of this
:, and will practically make him
a admit it if they should ever meet on
the stump.
I Since Owings came out, Gibson
Il has fought nobody else, pays at
tention to nobody else, lies on no
II body else and insults nobody else
He had his committee put the set.

If cripple Owings, if possible, and now

Y man can draw his own conclusion
,e from such actions on Gibson's part

w. d. Wright was not Gibs"n's
choice. He was "Dock" Owings
first choice and Owings did what
he could to secure Wright's APP
pointment, yet Wright goes into a
committee meeting and deliberate
ly stabs Owings, in the interests
of Gibson, who never had spark
of friendship in his heart for any
man.

A poll of the passengers on the
train returning from Clinton Satur-
day showed thirty-one against Glib
son and five for him, and two non
committal. The five men for
Gibson were j. l.. Goddard, Glib
sons Maryville postmaster; Bob
Robinson his Loudon postmaster,
N. H. Greer, Gibsou's private secre-
tary, w. d. Wright, one of his lead
ers, and w. 0. Douglass, and appli-
cant for an appointment. Gal.
braith, of Jefferson, refused to vote,
saying he had not decided whom
he was for.

ing to two men, Edmodson cut off
his own head by daring to lie
against Gibson. The only vote
that Mr.. Edmondson cast, was one
against going into secrete session
and in favor of doing everything
openly where all the people could
see and know for themselves what
was going on. If that kind of a
vote was against Gibson then the
people of this country don't want
any more of Gibson and will stand
by Huse. Blount County repudiat-
ed Houk and his committee for
just such acts and they will now
repudiate Gibson and his bench.
men.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1898-03-26

When the Gibson men tried to
get the County Executive Commit
tee to turn Huse Edmondson down,
"Dick" Goddard was one of the
men who opposed the scheme and
did what he could to counter-act
the influence OF Huse's enemies.
This course showed that he wanted
to be an honest man and true
friend to Huse rather than man
who would put such fellow as
Gibson before his honesty and life
long friendship.

In the event of war it will cost
$262 to fire an inch rifle, $487 for a
10-inch, 1888 for a 12-inch and 1882
for 16-inch gun. Several such
shots in case of war with Spain
would no doubtSmaxe several holes
in the Spanish naval and mercan-
tile marine, and send numerous
"Dons" to the "IIappy Hunting
Grounds" but at the same time
leave a terrible big hole in the
treasury of Uncle Sam.-Exchange.

Some fellows can pray long pray
ers and make touching talks in the
meeting house and then do any
kind of dirty trick in politics.
They can also pose as friend to
truth and jump on Others who may
not make such great pretentions.
They may have oily tongues, make
black look white, think they are
fooling everybody, but if they
could see themselves as others see
them and hear the opinion of their
associates in business and in
church life they might change
their minds; they might come to
the conclusion that they are not
the only people; they, might con-
clude to let other people do their
own conscience keeping and attend
more to their own-But what is the
use to talk about, or at such people,
they are generally so far above
mankind lin their own wisdom)
that nothing can reach them and
then if you did reach them their
skin is not tender and usually can
not be penetrated. Conceit and ar
rogance, combined with a ready
tongue makes some men think
they were born to keep the rest OF
the world right.
