FAIRY STORY
From Tennessee of the Finding of
Graves of Prehistoric Race of
Midgets.

Sparta, Tenn, Aug l4.-Natiyes OF
White county have discovered the
graves of what seems to have been a
prehistoric race of midgets
Several miniature tombs have been
opened and farmers during the past
year have plowed through them, al
ways unearthing small skeletons rare
ly over two feet in length. The skulls
measure the size of an ordinary co.
coanut and men of learning who have
examined them declare that no one
but a person who had reached he
age of maturity could have owned
such skulls
Graves from which the small skel.
etons have been taken are usually lin.
ed with a marble-like sarcophagus,
and rarely more than two feet in
depth. The massiveness of the stone
grave adds to the mystery as to how
a race of little people could possibly
have moved such weight.

REPUBLIC CAN CAMPAIGN TEXT
BOOK MAKES USUAL CLAIMS
Concluding Introduction With Appeal For Public Support For
Its Presidential and Congressional
Candidates.

4, The protectice tariff has been re
stored; the gold standard made per
manent; Cuba given independence
the Panama canal assured under the
sole ownership and control Of the
United States; the department OF
commerce and labor established, ru.
raj free delivery given to millions of
agricultural communities; laws for
the proper regulations Of trusts ami
great corporations strengthened and
enforced; prosperity established;
commerce developed; labor protected
and given ample establishment and
reward; intelligence, prosperity and
good government established in dis
tant islands and the flag of the Unit.
ed States made the emblem of honor
In every part of the world.
All OF these great accomplishments
have been the work of the Republican
party. In each of them it has met
dlsconragement and hostiities of
Democracy. 1t is on this additional
evidence of the last four years, evil
dence that the Republican party is
the party of progress and Democracy
the party of inaction. retardment and
fault-fnding, that the Republican par

book takes up in detail the subjects

foregoing.

punishments of offenders, rural free
delivery, irrigation. the record of the
Republican party, and the record OF
Theodore Roosevelt are the leading
subjects discussed by the Republican
campaign text book of 1904, which is
about to be issued.
Following is the introduction to the
book:
-Four important facts which justi-
fed the Republican party in making
the support of the public of 1900
were:
First, that It's pledges of 1896 had
been redeemed, second, that pros.
perity had come as a result: third,
that developments since 90 had
shown the fallacy of the principles
upon which Democracy then appealed
for public support; and, fourth, condi-
tions which had come to other parts
of the world and their people as a re.
suit OF promises fulfilled by the Re-
publican party in the United States.
These assertions made in the text
book of 1900 have been fully justified
by the added experiences of another
four years. Pledges of SO and those
made in 1900 have been redeemed.
