On the 18th of August, 1900, an
angel visited the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. w. Sutton, of Grand juno
ton, and carried from our midst
little Lewey. He was born January
10, 1898. Our hearts are deeply
grieved. We miss his smiling face.
His form has fed; his tongue is
stilled in death forever. We are
not able to measure the depths of
Gods purpose in these dispense
tions, for He doeth all things we'll
and permitted this dear boy to fall,
for some wise purpose. May the
Holy Spirit guide those who are left
sorrowing, so when the end shall
come they may meet in eternal rest.
Bless God the little hands above
Whose toll 80 soon was over,
Are twined around his throne of love,
To serve him evermore. MOTHER.

Tennessee Republican Fac
tons.

Chattanooga, Tenn, August 26.
"A letter was printed here this
morning from Chairman Hanna,
addressed to A. J. Tyler, chairman
of the Brownlow faction of the
state Republican party, recognizing
the Brownlow faction in the state
and calling on Tyler to discipline
the Evans people if they did not
quit the fighting and withdraw their
candidates. The letter created great
excitement among Republicans, and
much interest has been manifested
to know what would be the effect.
w. S. Upton, of Cleveland,
chairman of the Evans faction State
Republican Executive Committee,
in an interview to-day with refer
ence 10 the effect the Hanna letter
would have on the two tickets in
Tennessee, said:
cit will have the same effect as
shaking a red rag in the face of an
angry bull. Our committee meets
next Wednesday to organize for the
fight, and if there are any members
of it who do want to fight they will
be asked to step behind tree and
let the battle proceed. Mr.. HanDa's
statement that we intend to put can
didates in the field against Brown
low and Gibson is untrue. | sup
pose he got this information from
Brownlow and Gibson. No, the
fight will proceed unless the com
mittee are bigger towards than
think they are. 1t would be
ridiculous for the majority to sur
render to the minority. Ours is
the regular ticket and if Hanna
don't want it, it is because he has
refused to investigate or listen to
any one but Brownlow."
Newell Sanders, manager for Mr..
Evans, to-day received letter from
Vice Chairman Payne, of the
national committee, in which he
requests the leaders in this state tc
get together and settle their differ
ences. This letter was more com
forting to the Evans people, and
Mr.. San ders and r. S. Sharp, ex.
chairman of the Evans state COM
mittee, are out in interviews agree
ing to harmonic on condition that
their side is given the proper con-
sideration.
