In the Chancery action of the Mich

VS.. Granville Coleman, jury in the
Chancery Court at Nashville on Thurs

The jury found in his favor, subject,
however, to credit from such funds as
he might be holding.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Gen. Jos.
Wheeler, the famous Confederate
cavalry leader and Brigadier-
General of the United States Army
since the war with Spain, died at
5:35 O'Clock this afternoon at the
home of his sister, Mrs. Sterling
Smith, in Brooklyn. The veteran Of
two wars was 50 years old, but, in
spite of his age, there was hope until
yesterday of his recovery from the at
tack of pneumonia which caused his
death.
1t has not yet been decided where
the body will be inferred, but probably
1t will be in Arlington National Gene
temy, near Washington. Announce
ment of the plans for the funeral will
be made tomorrow.
Gen. Wheeler was taken i'll six days
ago at his sisters home, where he has
been living recently. He contracted
a severe cold, which developed into
pneumonia. rIOLA IuS HlSI HIS age
told against him, but the family did
not give up hope until last night,
when the disease was found to have
affected both lungs. Gen. Wheelers
immediate relatives were all with him.
His daughters, Mrs. w. J. Harris, and
the Misses Anne. Lucille and Carrie
Wheeler, had been summoned from
the South, and arrived early in the
week. His son, Maj. Jos. Wheeler,
Jr., u S. A., now stationed at West
Point, was also present, as well as
Gen. Wheeler's sister, Mrs. Sterling
Smith, and her son.
The family were summoned to the
beside of the patient at midnight last
night, when the doctors in consulta-
tion concluded that the end was but
a matter of hours. The General was
then awake and conscious, and his
mind was apparently active. He seem
ed to know that death was approach
ing, and, though too weak to speak,
he succeeded in giving signs of recog-
milton and encouragement to his chill
dren. Later the General sank into
peaceful slumber, and, at the request
of the doctors, the family quietly

contests come. l am ready for it
and so should every other Democrat
be ready for it. 1t is time that this
corruption at the polls should be
brought to halt, and the power of
! the good and honest voters should
determine our political contests.
We, as Committeeman, are the rep
resentatives of SO per cent. of all
that is good and noble in this grand
old county, and we should be true to
the trust that they have confided to
us and use our very best efforts to
give them a clean and fair election.
Should we allow bribery and DO
litical corruption to dominate and
control our elections? Shall we, like
our sister county in a recent election,
make our action a stencil in the nos
trils of every honest man throughout
the State? 1 trow not.
If we have not the courage to call
this political corruption to a halt,
how can we hope to escape it?
There are many poor but honest
young men in Maury County worthy
of official position, who by reason of
political corruption are forever shut
out from all political Office, and long
to see the day when every honest and
capable man throughout the county
can have an equal chance with every
other man regardless of property.
We need clean men in Office, men
who will not prostitute their official
positions to corrupt purposes, and
while | should be loathe to see it. I
for one believe that it would be better
for a republican to fill every office in
Maury County, provided they be
clean and honest men, rather than
to see our party continually debauch-
ed by corrupt and dishonest methods
and to fill all the offices with men
VINO are elected by the use of money |
or whiskey.
Should we allow acts of corruption |
to denominate and control our nom
nations it would not be long before
the honest people of this county will
rise up in their might and put the
stamp of disapproval upon our nom
Inees by electing other and better
men to fill the offices.
Mr.. Smiser was go convincing, and
vas so evidently defending the right
hat there was not dissenting vote
against the resolution. The justice of
ais cause is borne out by the general
election law which provides sgainst
he use money and liquor in elections.
The following resolution providing
or the qualification of voters was then
ADOPTED.
Be it resolved that all white Demo-
rats who will pledge themselves to
'ote for and support the nomi-
lees of this primary in the cleo
ion to be held the first Thursday
n August, 1906, and who are other
wise qualified to vote in primary cleo
ions under the law of the State, are
Iereby declared to be entitled to vote
n said primary election"
The Committee then adjourned to
neet March 9TH, when they will receive
nd canvass the returns and declare the

ON RECORD AGAINST
I CORRUPT ELECTION METHODS
Democratic Executive Committee Takes
Step In The Right DireCtion.--M Mr. Smser
Gives The Measure Strong
Support.

The Democratic Executive Committee
OF Maury met Saturday in the Ci-
cult Court room for the pvrpose of be-
ing sworn and then ratifying the action
of the Committee at the last meeting
and to take further action that might
be necessary to the proper holding of
the county primary March Bird.
The committeeman were sworn by
Circuit Clerk Worley to honestly and
conscientiously discharge their duties.
The following resolution was the in
tIoduced by Mr.. James A. Smiser and
adopted.
BE it resolved by the regular Dem
ocratic Executive Committee of Maury
County that a regular legal Democrat
be held at the various voting pre-
cincts in said County on Saturday,
March Bird, 1906, within legal hours,
said election to be held in all respects
subject to and in compliance with the
law of the State governing primary
elections, for the purpose of nominal
ing Democratic candidates for the
various offices of said county which
offices are to be voted for at the next
regular elenoitcshrdlu shrdlu uuu m
regular election on the first Thurs
day in August, 1906, and that all the
acts of the committee heretofore pass
ed in regards to said primary election
be and the same is hereby ratified and
approved.
A resolution introduced by Mr.. Court
ney provided among other things how
the judges and clerks to hold the pri
mary should be elected. AS the Com
mittee decided at the first meeting that
the committeeman from the various
districts should select the judges ana
clerks for their respective districts, and
the action of that meeting had been
ratified, this part of Mr.. Courtney's
reso ution was stricken out.
The resolution contained the follow
ing additional provision:
Resolved, That if any candidate who !
may be nominated and shall be charg-
ed with the procuring of his nominal
ton by the corrupt use of money or
any intoxicating liquor, and the
charge be accompanied by proof, and |
upon investigation he should be found
guilty, his nomination shall be de-
clared void and the executive commit
tee may nominate a candidate by ma
jority vote of the whole committee,
or they made declare the candidate
holding the next highest vote the nom
inee.
This resolution was opposed by come
on the grounds that its passage would
give an opportunity to some dissstis
fed candidate to contest the election,
but Mr.. James A. Smiser was here
given tne floor and made one of the
best speeches of his life, winning the
applause of all his hearers. i
Mr.. Smiser spoke in substance as
follows:
