Good for Children.

The pleasant to take and harmless One Minute Cough Cure gives immed- fate relief in all cases of cough, croup and LaGrippe because it does not pass immediately into the stomach, but takes effect right at the seat of the trouble. It draws out the inaam- nation, heals and soothes and cures permanently by enabling the lungs to contribute pure life-giving and life sustaining oxygen to the blood and tissues. Dr. Armstrong of Della, Tex, prescribes it daily and says there is no better cough remedy made. Sold by D. J. Brannen.

To the Public.

Felt paper on your room is equal to plastering, is much cheaper and more durable. I am the originator of the felting process and use special paste which is free from objectionable odor. My imitators not knowing what to use resort to the use of ill smelling paste and glue. The felt to be of ser- vice must be put on right and I am the only paper hanger in the city that will guarantee my work.

A Fertile Region.

The Mohawk valley, Yuma county, is wonderfully fertile region. In proof of this assertion the Sun says that five years ago George Norton sowed field of barley, cut it for hay the same season and has continued to cut from three to four tons per acre every season since. Of the five crops cut, four of them have been volunteer, and as the barley was in no case al- lowed to ripen the volunteer crops un- doubtedly came from the original roots. If it can be shown that the roots of the original sowing continue to retain their life and vitality from one year to the other, as Mir. Norton says it does, it will be something in agriculture never before heard of.

STATE POLITICS.
B. A. Enloe Will Run for Railroad
Commissioners and Harvey Han
nah for Secretary OF State.

The following interesting State
political gossip is from Saturday
American:
Another candidate for Railroad Com
missioner at the next election Will be
Hon. B. A. Enloe, OF Jackson. Secre-
tary of the Tennessee Worlds FAR
Commission. While Mr.. Enioe him
self refuses to 0iscuss the matter,
saving that his duties as Secretary OF
the Worlds Fair Commission VITA
keep him busy enough for several
months TO come, The American has IL
from a reliable source that Mr.. Enioe
will certainly be candidate. although
he will not announce himself nor Win
ne take any active part until after his
duties as Secretary of the Tennessee
Worlds FAIR Commission are COM
pletea. Mr.. Enioe Is just now one OF
the busiest men In the State and ls
bound up heart and soul in the success
of the Tennessee exhibit at the 81.
Louis Exposition.
While Gen. Harvey Hannah refuses
TO either affirm or deny the report that
he will be a candidate for Secretary at
the next election, his friends feel sure
that he will yield 70 their wishes ana
announce himself candidate at some
time in the near future. 1t is well
known that Gen. Hannah has had
strong pressure brought to bear upon
him to become candidate, ana whi'e
at first he refused to CONSIDER tne
matter, it is understood that ne now
ia giving it some consideration. capt.
.Tohn w. Morton, who has made most
efficient Secretary OF State, will again
be candidate and Will have many
warm and enthusiastic supporters IN
all parts of the State.
| Harris Brown, of Gallatin, ID
another mentioned as probable can
didate to succeed Capt. Morton. Mr..
Brown has for the past twenty years
been the County Court Clerk OF Snm-
ner County and his great popularity ID
not confined to his OWE county or 10
Middle Tennessee. There are vague
minors at present that there Will be
several others who will shy their
csstors Into the ring within the next
few months, and lively times may De
expected In the race for the ONCE oI
Secretary OF State.
Anotner race that promises to Dc
most animated one will be that for
Comptroller to succeed Hon. Iheo. =.
King. Only three are at presen.
/ certain candidates, but even should
there be no others the race should
nroye to be one OF the most interesting
known in Tennessee politics In years
because of the popularity Ut the TITO
who will run. The certain candidates
at present are Hon. Frank Dibrell, OF
S,arta Leon Trousdale. Chief CLERK
IN Comptroller Kings office, and Geo.

The Brooklyn Eagle publishes the
following interview with Senator Il.
w. Carmack In regard to the Demo
cratic nomination for President;
II have been asked IN half dozen
interviews ut half a dozen different
times If preferred the nomination OF
Judge Parker for President. l Thought
MIN the strongest man who could ne
nominated. I still thi7k go, my views
being In no way affected by the with
drawal of. Cleveland. I believe the
sentiment of my state has all the time
been very strong for Parker. Mr..
Thompson. Chairman of our state
Democratic Committee. few weeks
ago canvassed the situation by letters
and the result was that Judge Parker
appeared largely in the lead.
"Mr. Go-man has a strong follow
ing IN the South, but there is a gen:ra
feeling tnat the nominee should come
from New York. if an entirely accept
able candidate can be brought forward
and Judge Parker seems entirely to
meet that requirement.
