Whose Say-so is Best?

With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-so alOnea as to their cura-
tive value. OF course, such testimony is
not that of a disintereSted party and
accordingly is not to be given the same
credit as If written from disinterested
motives. DIR. Pierce's medicines, how
ever, form a single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers say : so or
praise. Their ingredients are matters of
public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DIR. Pierce's full
confidence. Scores of leading medical
men have written enough to fill volumes
in praise of the curative value of the
several ingredients entering INTO these
well known medicines.

The Nashville American Puts the
Majority for Taylor in Democat
Primaries at from Fifteen to
Twenty thousand.

Nashville, Tenn, May 12.-The Nash
vile American will say tomorrow that for
mer Governor Robert L. Taplor has been
nominated in the democratic primaries for
United States senator over Edward W.
Carmack, present incumbent, by a majori-
tv of from 15, 900 to 20, 600 votes. The

will elect Taylor to the senate, his term
beginning the following March. Csrmack
retires after having served one term in the
senate, before which he was a member
of the house from the Tenth Tennessee
district. His home is in Memphis.
Today's ballotlng marked the close OF q
long-drawn out campaign, which has
aroused more bitterness and general inter-
est in the state than any other political
struggle since that In which Andrew john
son was elected to the enate shortly after
the close of the Civil War.
Robert Love Taylor was born at Happy
Valley, Carter county, Tennessee, July
81. 1850. He was elected to congress
where he served from 1879 to 1886, after
a picturesque campaign in which his
brother, Alfred A. Taylor, was his OPP
ponent. Re elected to the g~overnorship,
he served until 1891. In 1897 he was once
more called 10 the goveruorship. retiring
in 1899.

s'Mr, Thomas s. Rollins, Asheville, n. c.:
Dear Sir-Referring to your favor of
recent date, l beg &c ask when you think
you will call the state committe together?
If you cannot discuss the question of the
time of state convention, my ideain writing
you in my former communication was to
inquire when you would call the committee
together that they might discuss the ques-
ton of the meeting of the state convention.
1 hope you will do me the kindness to
write me immediately advising me when
you will call the state committee (of which
| have the hoour to be a member) together,
that it 1.-THE committed may discuss the
question of calling the state convention.
Il strikes me that the members of the COM
mittee from every section OF the state
would be able TO give US such suggestions
and information as to the conditions ex-
listing in their respective communities as
will greatly aid uslin accomplishing results
in the coming Campaign, and the sooner
these views can be had and a line of action
settled upon, the more satisfactory, il
seems to me, will be The results.
Awaiting your immediate reply. lhave
the honor to be,

We have read with some interest
the somewhat lengthy letter published
in the Times last week signed by Mr..
M. G. Redden and purporting to have
been written by him. We are sorry to
see our aged friends name used and
abused in this way. So far as we
know, he has been a good citizen, and
deserves better than this at the hands
of his younger friends. Mr.. Redden
neither wrote this letter nor dees he en-
dorse a sentence in it. The gallant
Judge Ship, under whom Mr.. Redden
served in the Confederate army, nc
doubt, looks down with-pity upon the
aged citizen, and would, if here, resent
the abuse of others of the old mans
confidence. Our ex-senator seems driv-
en- to desperate straits to justify him
self in the violence recently inflicted by
him upon his conscience and sens Of
self respect.

he "has read with pleasure" Charles

ty. Mr.. Justice has voted democratic
tickets and republican tickets for sever.

ticket of either party, with any regu-
larity, the Lord only, has been able to
find it out, Mr.. Justice ought to be

The Honorable Charles French Toms, of

only pity him. He gave promise of doing
better. We had hoped that he would out

democratic ticket, as he did a few years

sacred trust. Our conscientious opin-
ion of such an individual as that would
not look well in print. His action is a
reflection on every loyal supporter in
the convention which honored him and
upon every democrat who supported
him in the general election. He ought
to be ashamed to ''look a single n OF

of principle, are doubtless suspicious OF
