MAN THE NATION REQUIRES.
John A. johnson tho Ideal Occupant
of the Presidential Chair.

AS president, Gov. Johnson would
have the qualities that might described
as logically and historically needful
at this time, representing both in
thought and by concrete achievement
all of the progressive reforms to which
the American people are now thorough
ly committed. His personality and
his methods are such that, coming into
Office after the strenuous and even
terrifying political and financial ex-
periences OF recent years, he would be
prepared to hold all that has been
gained, restore an era of good feeling
and smoothly and comfortably prepare
the way for such additional advanced
legislation as the times require. In q
word, Gov. Johnson is precisely the
kind Of a leader the nation requires at
this time, ready for new legislation 10
meet new needs, but careful and con-
servative in his methods. The same
confldence-inspiring votegetting at
tributes that have made Gov. john
son so popular in Minnesota that there
Is absolutely no question that ne
could carry the state as the Demo
cratic presidential nominee will make
him equally popular with the voters
of the nation, once they have an op-
portunity to become acquainted with
the man.
Every political campaign has Its In
dlvidual conditions. 1t is found in this
contest that Gov. johnson possesses
a strength peculiar to him alone and
by which he is certain to bring to the
Democratic party upwards of million
votes in the middle west that have
hitherto been Republican. This condi
tion insures beyond reasonable
doubt victory for Democracy and GOV
johnson in the following states Min
nesota, North and South Dakota, I'LL
nois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, Ne
braska, Colorado, Montana, Washing

Mr.. James G. Sterchi. whose like
ness is produced above, is one of
Knoxville's wealthy citizens who has
recently become convinced of the won
derful surrounding resources and ad-
vantages of our city.
A few days since the entire stock OF the
Tennessee Furniture Il Supply Co. was
sotd at auction on the basis of 20 per
cent. down and balance at later date.
Mr.. Sterchi was the highest bidder and
instead of taking advantage of the de-
ferred time payment he drew his check
for the entire stock of goods which
consisted of four warehouses and one
store building of furniture. He i'm
mediately took possession and after
consultation with a number of the lead
ing business men of the city, he APP
pointed MIR. Frank 5. Henderson,
manager of his interests here. A bet
ter, more popular selection could have
been made.
Mr.. James G.. Sterchi is one of three
brothers, ali of whom have been sue
cessful in business. His individual
wealth is conservatively estimated at a
quarter of million dollars. He is
now part and parcel of Johnson City

time, especially during the coming
summer, with the purpose in view OF
ascertaining the demands of our grow
ing city. He expects to carry com
plete line of house furnishings and al
prices that every one can afford to pay.
The present stock of goods will be dis
posed of at the bankrupt sale now
going on; part of the goods being solo
at Wholesale cost and part below man
ufactures' cost. The sales up to the
present time have been tremendous

Results IN East Tennessee.

The joint debate in East Tennessee
between the candidates for governor is
over. 1t was short and sharp, and
more calculated to awaken political
thought and activity than any like
event held in Tennessee for a number
of years. 1t is little remarkable, too,
that everybody-people, candidates and
all are satisfied with results. At least,
they all say they are satisfied, though
it is evident some OF it must be akin to
that order Of complacency that comfort
ed the mule kicked son of Erin.
II was never better pleased with the
results of campaign in my life," de-
cIares Gov. Patterson. "My friends
may rest assured will carry the de-
mocracy of East Tennessee.
81 was never better pleased with the
results of campaign in my life, as
serts Mr.. Carmack. "My friends may
rest assured 1 will carry the democracy
of East Tennessee.
And SO it is, each candidate is satisf-
ed and confident; but, of surety, one
of them has had the worst of it, One
of them has been kicked by the mule.
Which is it?
Our own reports, which are reliable
through and through, being sent in by
an experienced Tennessee journalist
and worthy and dependable Tennes.

wolf fed-fed savagely and to repletiol
but when the reader looks for tn,
viands that satisfied the VOLTS hunge,
they are not there, SO he is fain to be
lieve that the wolf has been at Bar

On the other hand, there is plenty o
evidence showing that Mr.. Carmack
crowded by the governor, has backe'
entirely off the democratic platform
and saves himself from the humiliation
of an absolutely meaningless campaig
only by thrusting his neck beneath tn
compulsory prohibition yoke. For cel
tainly compulsory prohibition is nc
