OPCSiht w AhN SO''ASV'
Eizabethton, July 27.-Hon. Jesse
M. Littleton, the intrepid leader of the
Brownlow republicans of Tennessee,
addressed large crowd here today in
the court house, speaking to about 400
people, in spite Of the fact the Sanders
faction trumped up an excursion to a
Sunday school picnic in Unicoi county
that carried away several hundred peo-
pie. Thesaroused Brownlow men of
Carter county could not be tolled away
however, and gave Littleton Il fine re-
ceptiou, hanging upon his words with
breathless interest throughout his
speech of an hour and quarter. His
attack on Sanders and the leaders of
the Evans wing of the republican par
ty for trying to barter the 10000 re-
publicans of Tennessee to their lifelong
enemies, Charles 7. Gates, Gus Enloe
and others, was most severe, and it
was plain to be seen that while the
crowd was not demonstratlVe, the SYM
pathy of the audience was with the
speaker There is no doubt that the
voters of this county are about evenly
split, with the chances in favor of the
regular democratic ticket carrying the
county next Thursday.
Mr.. Littleton was introduced TO the
audience by Dan Hyder, chairman of
the republican county executive COM
mittee.
Arch M. Hughes, former Brownlow
man from Columbia, Ttnn., who was
sent here by Newell Sanders - ansY r
Mr.. Liltleton, asked for Il diIii IA ei
time and it was granted him. He WaS
loudly applauded by small hand OF
boiling democrats and anti Dr1W.Il wv
ties and made n speech that WIS salts
factory to them, but he was no match
for Littleton. In fact, his speech wiS
so weak that Littleton did mol feel il
necessary to reply although he VAS en-
titled to a rejoinder under agreement.
Col. Littleton left here Immediately
after the speaking for Knoxville and
tomorrow night will speak at Lenoir
ECity, where he invited Col. Hughes tc
meet him. Mr.. Hughes will speak al
Jonesboro tomorrow morning, and il
he can muster up enough courage to
tackle the Littleton buzz-saw again he
may appear at Lenoir City
In his speech today, which was
along the lines of his speech ut Taze-
well Monday, Mr.. Iittleton denounc-
ed as wilful and wicked falsehood tnt
charge that he is being paid to make
speeches for the independent regular
democratic ticket 'Any man." he
said, "who says that | ever accepted
even .S much as campaign travelling
expenses during this campaign or any
other camlaign since | was born is a
wilful and wicked falsifier and Sian.
derer."
He said if he he'd TO fight he prefer.
red to fight with regular army and
not with band of political guerillas.
His appeal to the Brownlow men tc
resent the injustice Sanders and his
crowd heaped upon their leader during
life was most effective and his beauti-
full and eloquent tlibute to the dead
congressman of this district evoked
great applause.

MEDICINES UNDER THE BAN

Beginning August l. W. A. Dunlap,
Internal revenue collector, will begin
crusade for the collection of taxes on u
long list of patent medicines which, in
The language Of Commissioner Cabell,
.thave been examined and found to be
sufficiently medicated TO warrant the
sale without the payment of taxes as
prescribed by law" Eugene s. Priest,
N discussing the ruling of Commissions
ar Gabcll, said: "The fact that the me-
d cines are sold by druggists as drugs
wall make no difference in the collec-
ion Of the taxes Commissioner Cab
ell has also issued instructions to all
revenue collectors to see that whisky
shipped in barrels is plainly marked.

CERTIFICATES ARE GOOC
Now For All Pharmacists and Ii
censed Prescription Clerks All
Over the Entire South.

Every pharmacist and drug
gist in this section of the state,
and many more patrons OF the
enterprises with which they are
connected, is interested in the
action taken by the Tennessee
Pharmaceutical Association and
the Southern Boards of Pharmacy,
which bodies have just concluded
annual sessions at Memphis.
One sensational feature is the
relentless war which has been de-
clared against the venders, or
peddlers, of,patent medicines. 1t
is understood this does not apply
to the regular" manufacturers
Of standard "patents,'' but to the
itinerant venders who travel
throughout the state, retailing in
most case, cure-alls which really
have no merit.
The druggists will ask the
the next Legislature to again
pass a law requiring medicine
pcddlers to pay an annual tax OF
81 900 to the State. A similar
law was repealed 1T the last ses-
sion of the Tennessee Lpgisla-
lature. J. L. Nelson, of Jack
sou, Tenn, was chairman of the
Committee on Legislation, which
drew up the paper.
So bitter are some OF the
druggists operating on the Sab
bath day, that motion was ad-
oted which may resul. in string
ent laws being passed. Some
even want the puritanic druggist
laws which are in vogue in Eng
land to be introduced into Ten
nessee. This would mean that
the operation of drug stores on
Sundays would be tabooed. The
druggis would close up his shop
and simply display a sign where
he could be found in the case of
emergency.I
Pharmacists and licensed pre-
cription clerks removing from
one of the southern states TO an
other hereafter need not undergo,
REORGANIZATION if the purposes Of
the Southern Association of
Boards of Pharmacy, are put in
to successful operation. This or
ganization was formed at the
conclusion of the annual conven-
tiun of the Tennessee Pharma-
ceulical association. Represen-
tatives of practically every state
in the south attended and the fol-
lowing officers were chosen: Pres
itent. E Berger, Tampa, Fla;
wee president, Frank w. Ward,
Memphis, Tenn ; sccretary-treas-
urv, Z. ID. Jordan, Monticello,
Ga.
Heretofore the boards of the
diff, rent states have operated in
depently, the license issued by
one state not being recognized in
another. The new organization
was formed with view of per-
fectiug a mutual understanding
and eliminating the necessity OF
reorganization.
Carl NJ. Rtnkert, Of Memphis,
was elected president of the state
association and Nashville select
cd at the next place of meeting.

Where Is Hitchcock

President Taft is not the only one
who is behind time with his messages.
Ordinarily the annual report Of the
postmaster general is before congress
when It meets. but this year there was
a great void. Il Is understood that Mr..
Hitchcock had such important recon-
mendations to make that he could not
get them ready I'm time; hence the de-
lay. or perhaps he did not want to
stir congress into a fever Of activity
before the holidays. Anyway the
mountain hes now labored. and the
country can breathe once more.
