SENATORIAL -FLOTER|AL
CONVENTIONS HELD

conventions which were held IN
Mckenzie Saturday, Oct. 10Th,
were attended by the following
properly accredited delegates
from Henry county:
E G Brown, Walter Doty, w
B Spaulding, H L Bruce, D E
Bomar, J B Thomason, Hon. w
E Weldon, and Esq. James M
Pierce.
In the case of senator the coun-
ties of Henry and Carroll are
jointly represented and alternate
in naming the candidate, so il
being Henry county's time her
delegates were instructed to vote
as a unit for Joe Mccall, of Car
"oll, he being the unanimous
choice of the senatorial mass
meeting held in this county on
Saturday, Oct. 3rd.
AS previously advertised, the
two cute little Eason boys were
on hand with faces washed, hair
combed and shoes neatly brush
ed, armed with their little ham,
mers and prepared to knock no
matter which way the cat jump
ed, for be it known that they
feel that they own the Democrat
ic party of Carroll and that
no convention would be complete
unless the doughty brothers
Started something" They are
as full of tricks as Hans and
Fritz of Katzenjammer fame and
ever ready to pull off funny
on der good oldt Captain, :"
namely the Democratic party.
The two counties caucused in
separate committee rooms and
presently Hans" Eason appear
ed before the Henry county dele
cation demanding that a two
third vote be required to nomi-
nate instead of a majority as has
hitherto, been the rule. This
suggestion was promptly reject
ed as it was patent to all that
Hans and Fritz were at their
pranks already, and were plan
ming a deadlock which could only
be broken by Henry Withdrawing
her support from Joe Mccall, and
this she could not honorably do.
Presently Hans and another
gentleman came before the Hen
ry countians with a resolution
which set forth that inasmuch as
the two-third rule would not be
adopted the Carroll delegation
would refuse to participate in the
convention and would not recog-
nize its action as binding on the
Democrats of their county.
In plain English, the Katzen-
jammer kids had come to Nc
Kenzie to nominate big Happy
Bill" Haley, as clever a fellow
as inhabits the earth, and if they
could not do this W re determin-
ed to bolt rather than permit
Henry county according to time
honored custom, to exercise her
prerogatlve by naming the
baby, when it was her turn to
do so.
Thereupon the following Car
roll county Democrats led by
Ben Johnson united with the
Henry delegation in organizing
the convention:

Secretary of State Speaking For General Thomas Rye
ADDRESSES RYE CLUBS
IN HENRY COUNTY

Hon. S. P. Fitzhugh addressed
the Rye club of the Sixteenth dis
trict of Henry county at Sulphur
Well Academy on Saturday
night. A large and enthusiastic
crowd was present and Mr.. Fitz-
hugh made very eloquent APP
peal to the voters in behalf of
the democratic nominees. Mr..
Fitzhugh discussed the different
theories of government from the
democratic and republican stand
points and said that the demo-
cratic party originated in the
mind of a southern man, and
that that was one strong reason
Why he believed in democratic
doctrines and democratic princi-
pies.
He said the only issue in the
campaign upon which Hooper
hoped to persuade the people to
give him a third term Was the
temperance question, and that
that question would never be
settled in Tennessee politics as
long as designing politicians
were permitted to use it as a po-
litical asset, and that the only
way to it forever was to elect
Tom Rye governor of Tennessee,
which the speaker predicted
would be done on November 8
by large majority.
Mr.. Fitzhugh declared that
the resignation of Mr.. Hamilton,
superintendent of the anti-saIoon
league, together with public
statements by former indepen-
dent democrats that they were
we'll satisfied with the temper
ance platform of the democratic
party, was convincing evidence
that the people were determined
to elect Henry county's candi-
date for governor Of this state.
The law which Hooper is asking
the people to enact giving power
to him to remove from office at
his will and pleasure public off
cials elected by the people, was
discussed, the speaker emphasiz-
ing the fact that Hooper's greed
for such power was in keeping
with the republican theory of
government should be removed
from the people and placed in
the hands of a few, while Gen.
Rye's position was truly demo-
cratic, in that he advocated a
law to remove all derelict officials,
even the governor of the state il
necessary, and that the governor
had no right to ask to be exon
Grated from the operation of
such law: but that the power
to remove such derelict officials
should be placed in the hands of
the people, by whom public Off
cials are elected.
The state debt was also dis
cussed in detail. The speaker
said he resented Governor Hoop
er's statement that the demo-
cratic party had been for years
Soldering" on the old Confeder-
ate soldier, and stated to the
people that Governor Hooper's
republican party was the party
that had always ignored the Con-
federate soldiers until it felt the
need of their votes and influence
in elections, and that even then
the present republican platform
was very weak as to pensions for
the old soldiers when compared
to the democratic platform,
which the speaker insisted, had
the ring of honesty and sinceri-
