D. B. THOMAS.

The attention Of the readers of
The Chronicle is called to the an
nonncement in this issue of Hon.
ID. b. Thomas as candidate for
the State Senate.
Mr.. Thomas is too well known
to the voters of old Benton to
need an extended notice at our
hands. His public services for
two terms in the General Assem-
bly, of Tennessee brought him into
intimate relation with large
number of the people of his home
county, and the fearless and up
right manner in which he stood
up for law enforcement aud civic
righteousness in Tennessee made
them his lasting friends.
He has been urged to make the
race by leading men in every coun-
ty in this senatorial district--by
men who recognize his ability and
his firm stand for the right-and
if elected he will look closely after
the interests of his constituents and
discharge every duty faithfully.
