Come And Gone

Owing to the condition Of my
health | was forced to sell the Rec
ord in order that may take rest
and regainimy health. During the
three Gears j have tried to manage
the paper, | have no complaint to
make against the people of Loudon
county for their patronage, it has
given to me freely and,unstinting-
~. The subscribers with few ex-
ceptions have paid up promptly and
we'll. We believe the Record has
the cleanest list of subscribers of
any paper in East Tenn. Mer-
chants, with possibly one exception
have dealt as far as they could with
their home paper. While we have
friends here among all classes, if
expressions are worth anything,
yet-we believe our very best, the
one that sticks the closest, are
among the farming class.
No paper in East Tenn has a
better or more competent, prompt
and willing set Of correspondents.
than the Record. They have done.
grand work for me, one and all,
and we trust they will keep right
along with the paper and make it
go forward.
We have sold to Rev. J. II. Par
rott, who from this time forth will
push the pencil. He needs no in
trodnction to you. You know him
and You know noting but good OF
him. He takes hold of it with our
good will and hest wishes and, we
return thanks for the many kind
nesses shown us by the people
of Loudon and wish the Rec
ord. its worthy editor, London
county and its citizens, all well.
We will eat our "corn pone' in

least is our plan.
Yours very truly,

He said everybody did these things:

that that is all people were for-all

nice and young and slim that he

Then he told me that only very
young girls were nice, and the thinner
they were the prettier they were, and
that nothing was so loathsome as fat,

Howard-the brother has been in court
many days. but not once has gone near
his sister--were placed on train by
friends and sent on to their mother.
She recalled that the two little travel
ers had trouble with the conductor,
who wanted to put their cat out of the
car. But, she naively added. they held
fast possession Of 1t, just the same.
Then came their advent in New
York, of her life here and eventually
the acceptance by her mother of the

at luncheon. The girls mother told

STRUGGLE TO LEAD
DEMOCRATIC FIGHT
FOR NEXT CONGRESS

There is hot fight among the mem
bership Of the newly selected Demo-
cratic Congressional committee as TO
whether Representative f1Ood OF Vir-
ginia or Representative Lloyd of Mis-
souri, shall be its next chairman, and
conduct the fight TO win "A majority IN
the Sixty-first Congress.
Lloyd's chances at present are brighter
than Floods, according to the men who
are conducting the Lloyd campaign.
Mr.. Floods friends. however. deny the
claim Of the Lloyd men that majority
OF the committee is pledged TO Mr.
Lloyd.
Mr.. Lloyd's strength is chiefly among
Southern Democrats, while Mr.. Flood
hopes 10 secure large following among
the Northern and Eastern Democrats.
The selection of the chairman vii be
held in this city Immediately after the
Christmas holidays.
Mr.. Lloyd had charge OF the Chicago
branch OF the campaign management
in the election. and vas signalIy sue
cessfui IN winning Democratic members
in doubtful Western States.
Mr.. Bowers OF Mississippi IS also
mentioned for the place, but his follow
ing is at present weaker than that OF
Mr.. Flood or Mr.. Lloyd.
