Geo. N. WEIGH

George N. WEIGH is making a
great race for railroad commits
sioner. Many republicans are
supporting him. Gen. John T..
Wilder, one of the best known Re-
publicans of the state is giving Mr..
WEIGH his unqualified support, be-
cause he knows him personally
and knows his qualification for
the position. 1t has been charged
that Mr.. WEIGH is a stave manu-
facturer, but he does not manu-
facture them for beer kegs exclu-
sively. He is manufacturer of
slaves Of all kinds, pork, oil, vine
gar, lard, tierce &c; and the fact
that some of the slaves
turned out by Mr.. Welch's stave
factories find their way into beer
kegs, no more makes Mr.. WEIGH
a beer key manufacturer" than
would the fact that some of the
corn grown by the farmers of
Tennessee finds its way into dis
tilleries. The manufacturing of
slaves, lumber and spokes, in
which Mr.. Welch is engaged, is a
legitimate business and these in
dustries furnish employment to
large number of needy men.
Mr.. WEIGH and Mr.. Saddler, his
opponent, live in the same civil
district and the district casts 300
votes and it is said WEIGH will re-
ceive 275 of them, which shows
that his people believe in his
honesty and ability.

w. C. T. u.

The second regular meeting of
the w. c. T. U. was held October
7th in the Southern Methodist
Church. Much important bust
ness came up at this meeting, var
ious departments under the organ
ization were discussed and few
very important departments were
assigned to the committees, es-
pecially those departments that
came under the head termed.
The Evangelistic Division" This
division comprises most all branch
es pertaining to religion. | will
give briefly a few of it's duties: to
reach non-church going people,
Bible reading, prayer, distribut-
ing goodtand helpful literature
and withthis good cheerful words,
visit county jails and poor farms
and hold services with them.
Temperance Division, -Scienti-
fic Temperance was especially dis
cussed and committee has this
in charge. The object of this de-
partment is to get the children OF
the public schools taught the ef-
feet of alcohol and narcotics upon
the human system.
The law of the state requires
that the public schools have these
instructions, but sometimes the
teachers fail to give these instruc-
tons to the schools in their
charge. Committee for this de-
partment is to visit the school and
see if this subject is taught, and if
not, why not, and to urge all
teachers to teach it to all pupils in
the schools as the law requires.
Anti-Narcotics-A committee
has this in charge also, and the
motive of this department is to
create sentiment against the use
of tobacco, cigarettes, opium and
all other narcotics.
The organization will endeavor
