What the BOers Have Gained.

History does not afford a parallel in
stance of a people who, in losing all in
the hazard of war, gained so much as
has the Boer race in this late terrible
and protracted conflict. At the begin
ming of their contentious with England
the Beers were the most obscure and
disregarded race of European stock on
the face of the earth. In the very ma
ture of things, if they had been let
alone the race would have been over
whelmed and absorbed in the course of
time But the war which wasted their
country, destroyed their homes, broke
their political independence and nearly
decimated their numbers, has given the
race a new and probably permanent
lease of life. 1t has emphasized their
nationality and established them as q
special people in the worlds respect,
secured for them under the strongest
guarantees of self-government with the
perpetuation of conditions calculated
to preserve their laws and language,
with such provision in ready money fol
the restoration of their homes and
farms as will enable them to replace al
antiquated and outworn system with
one better suited to his age and to the
progress of their country. No Other
country ever found itself possessed
through defeat of such striking advant
ages. No other race ever so establish
ed its character and secured fixed an(
honorable status in the world through
the process of losing its Independent
national existence PortlandOregoniai

lied in the Eighth district of Carter
county at Emmert's school-house on
Wednesday night, August 9th. Hon.
J. j. McCorkle was elected chairman
and j. G. Leonard was elected secreta-

ocrats of the district were present and
joined when the doors were opened.
1t was one of the most enthusiastic
gatherings ever known in the district.
This means the defeat of Brownlowism,
Bossism and Boodleism in politics.

Some Reasons,

A few reasons why Maj. j. W. Weeks
should have the earnest support of the
people in the senatorial race:
l. He is an honest man.
2. He is a capable man.
3. He is a man whose character is
above reproach.
4. He denounces bossism.
g. He favors o revision of the election
laws so as to prevent recurrence of
fraud.
6, Every one of his neighbors, who
know him best, will vote for him.
7. He was an active supporter of Da-
ma Harmon in the late Judicial race.
s. He is not in the race on account Of
personal desire for flee, but became q
candidate upon the urgent request OF
the people in this fight of the people
against serfdom.

Conspiracy to Rob Harmon.

There is no kind of doubt of the elec-
ton Of the Hon. Dana Harmon to be
Judge of the First circuit over the Hon.
A. J. Tyler, late revenue collector, al
though it appears that Mr.. Harmon is
about to be robbed of the fruits of his
victory. Strangely enough, there is a
strong affinity between the Brownlow
machine, represented by Mr.. Tyler, and
the democratic managers in several of
the counties of the district, and that
fact renders it extremely probable that
Mr.. Tyler will get the certificate, al
though he did not get the votes.
1t was an opportunity for the demo-
Gratis they could not resist to lend a
hand in helping to widen the factional
breach in the republican ranks, and
they appear to be taking the best ad-
vantage of it, In Hawkins county the
republican division enabled the demo.
Gratis to elect their entire county ticket.
In Sullivan county there appears to be
no doubt that the Hon. John |. Cox
has been tower of strength to the
Brownlow faction, and as result the
republican situation is bound to be Sc
rious. The friends of Harmon believe
he was honestly and fairly elected, and
if he should fail they will charge it ur
to intrigue between Brownlow and the
democratic election officers in certain
counties, and they will not be very fal
wrong. On the other hand, if Harmon
should be declared elected it would bC
a terrific blow to Congressman Brown
lows personal machine.
We believe that the contest is in sucl
conition that Brownlow has either go
to give up Tyler or endanger his owl
place. The fight has been the mos
bitter ever known in that district, which
has been so long under the thumb of
political ruler, a condition that make
the present revolt all the more siguifi
cant. From advices received from til,
district we believe that the democrat
might reasonably hope for the election
of a congressman, provided Harmon i

RESOLUTIONS

Whereas the condition Of affairs in
the First judicial and congressional
districts are such as should bring the
blush of shame to the cheeks of all lib
loving and w-abiding citizens.
And whereas the methods consisting
of bossism, coercion and intimidation,
dictation and the corruption Of the elec.
torate in our elections are in direct vio-
lation Of the constitution of the United
States and the laws of every state, and
whereas we believe that in free and
independent government where the
people are the rulers, every citizen is
Of right and should have as much voice
in exercising the elective franchise,
without dictation or molestation from
any one.
Therefore be it resolved, That we,
the anti-Brownlow league, in meeting
assembled in the courthouse in Eliza
bethton, condemn the ring which has
robbed the people of their liberty by
.coercing and intimidating the laborer
and compelling the Officials who hold
positions under the present ring to
vote for and put up money for their
boss and trickster.
Resolved further, That we condemn
the ring for their action in the last ju-
dicial race, whereby il was sought by
money and corruption to place on the
bench its candidate regardless of the
fact that he was not the peoples choice.
And that we further condemn said ring
for the fraud it has attempted to perpe-
trate by Withholding returns of the
election to accomplish their end.
Resolved further, That we and each
Of us pledge ourselves to do everything
in our power to bring the present state
of affairs to a cricis, and at the ballot
box next November vote for and sup.
port only good men who are in sympa'
| thy with the above resolutions.
