Our Candidates. The nominees ol last Monday's convention are all of them soon men. Hon. Z. W. Ewing has made reputation in the senate and as a parliamentarian and is well equip ped for the duties of senator. Hon. T. B. Harwell Las served in the legislature with distinction. He ranks with the foiemost men of the country as a scientiQe agriculturist and has given much study to the laws that effect the farming inter- ests and to subjects and theories out of which laws may be evolved that will be of benefit to the people. Prof. Uafus P. lancy bas long been an educator and ranks with our best informed men. His has been a country life also and he is thor oughly posted as to the needs and uemaiids of the ueoule and is ca pacitated to make his knowledge of practical utility in the legislature. ihese three men started out ahead in convention and were undoubted ly the choice of the people. They deserve and will doubtless receive the unanimous support of demo crats. Capt. Jno. 0. Lester. Hon. Jno. Lester did not come before the congressional conven- tion yesterday. Ilia defeat in the primaries is not attributed by any one to latfk of personal worth. His politics was the sole cause of his defeat. There is not a better man in Tennessee than Capt. Lestei and there is not a sounder democrat. His offense was in being out of lime with the majority four years ago. wuynsuouid oe remembered so severely against him is a mystery when we consider that others who offended more grievously hare not only been forgiven but have been G advanced to higher places. We will not particularize. We predict that now that the people of Giles have reprimanded Capt. Lester lor G what they please to thiak was a po litical sin they will turn to make M amends for a punishment which it must have grieved them to inflict. I He will be a popular man and he will deserve io be so. There was never a breath ot suspicion cast upon his integrity. He is even ac corded absolute political honesty. He is in thorough accord with the party to-d- ay and not a word of complaint or bitterness has escaped his lips. an Change of Date. We desire to call especial atten tion to the change of date from the 25th to the 27th, for the sale of the celebrated Big Creek farm adver- tised in this naner. known as the Wilkinson place. This is one oi ell most celebrated farms in Giles county. It is situated in one of the richest values a bird ever flew over this or any other country, and a good portion of it is level and as fertile as the far famed ralley of Nile, and all of it is well wa tered. Ii is one of the most mag niticent grass and stock farms in ted state, and could be made to equal any of the blue "rrass farms for Kentucky. It is naturally sus- ceptible of division into three or more tracts, either one .of which would be a fine farm. The writer t'iis has beeu over the place and examined it, and he unhesitatingly pronounced it equal to any land in any country ho ever saw. Some- - bodv will get a great bargain by attending this sale. Don't forget the date. Boh Taylor Clubs. The regular meeting of the Pu- - l.iski Job Taylor Club was held in the circuit court room last Monday ight. The following new names were enrolled: J. A. White, F. 11. Kellum, G. II. Orr, J. S. Graves, J. Lester, R. A. Williams, Wm. M. in Stone, J, E. Gilbert, J. C. Potts, W. Aymett, II. M. Stanley, J. C. Gilbert, J. C Dicky, Jno. B. Kelly, Jim Connor, R. II. Jones, J. J. Zuc-carell- o, W. S. Harwell, Clif. Rhea. A. communication was received asking that a member or members ofthisclubbe sent to Pisgah on next Saturday night, Sept. 18, to to assist in the organization of a Bob of Taylor club there. On motion tbe chair was authorized to appoint two members to go. He appointed Messrs. J. R. Crowe and Flournoy Rivers. The secretary explained ly that be wishod an assistant elected take charge of the minutes the in the event he should be unavoidably absent from any meeting. Mr. C. L. Carter was chosen the assistant secretary. of The club was then addressed by the successful candidates in Mon- day's convention, the Hon. T. B Harwell, Squire li. P. lancey and Hon. Z. W. bwing. Some ot the unsuccessful candidates then spoke, Mr. J. R. Crowe, Mr. S. C. Mitchell, and Mr. R. A. F. Jackson The Hon. John C. Lester then & addressed the meeting and an nounced his withdrawal from the congressional race. Capt. Lester's speech was a decided "hit" and was the most enjoyable one made, Dr. J. C. Roberts also addressed the club. There was some discussion as to the program of entertainment for the 25th, when Mr. Taylor speaks here but no formal action was taken through it is expected that every democrat in Giles county shall come to Pulaski on thai day and march in the procession that will receive Col.

Nashville does not seem to want that road. This is your sur est way out. What do you say, Mr. Ben Huntr" Pulaski Citizen We say emphatically that we are for any movement that will give ns another railroad. Our people are determined to have it, and that very soon. The citizens of Huntsville would no doubt be glad to confer with the citizens of Pulaski on this subject. We visited Pulaski about two years ago-o- n this subject and we are glad to see that her people have waked up. Huntsville Mer cury. We shall await the result of the Elora effort and if it fails will push our road. If Huntsville wants a road this way she had better barken to our proposals now. The Pulaski Primary. mere wa3 more iuu.rest mani fested in the primary at Pulaski last Saturday than we ever saw be fore. I here were 2oI votes cast within 59 of the full vote.

The candidates in town agreed to a list of twelve delegates and these were elected. The anti free school men ran another ticket which was de feated.

Frdm all parts of the county the fair directors arc assured that their calls for assistance will be liberally met. We are truly glad to hear this for their object is a very commendible one. Tho managers have labored faithfully to give us a good entertainment at our fall fair, but being in debt, they could offer but nominal preminms and conse- quently the exhibitions have been the past nothing like what our county is able to make. Everything now indicates that they will succeed in their efforts and have a great crowd of people the this year and a fine display in ev- ery department. We would suggest that tie com mittees in the different localities go work and see from what section county we will get the most sub-stanci- al help.

County Jail Office Needed. A Citizkn renorter inspected the nnnntv iail Monday. The interior 1 of the structure is almost a contin- - er uous wall of iron, the iron lining recently Dut in bv Messrs. Webb Son makes the'structure as secure aaaihlA ThP flonra walla and ceilings are clean and wear a fresh coat of white-was- h. One feature of tha institution mv- .- hands of the countv courtia the want of an office for the iailor. The building was designed to accom modate the family of the sheriff in apartments separated lrom the pris On by a Solid wall. This part of the buildicjr is not eo constructed as to accommodate the iailor, as it has but one entrance, and to use the entrance hall as an ollice is very disagreeable persons occupying ad Uacent TOOmS. A lie Desi rooms 1U the buildinsr ioin this hall. Tbe U objection toreceiving all grades of crim nals even temporarily in tbe entrance hall of a family residence ia tor. natpnt to admit Of dlSCU- S- sion. It is necessary for the jail- or to sieep at the jail and the coun ty should build an omce ana sleep- ing apartment for hia use. The lot extends CO feet south of the jail and a small office could be built for less than $200. The Most Aftreeable.

The grape show was particularly fine and shows that this section is well adapted to grow ing this fruit. The following coun- ties contributed to the show: Jeffer son, Henry. Trimble. Bullitt and Warren, with some specimens sent from other states for show and not entered tor premiums. Among these are two crops of apples from same tree by J. H. Burrow.

You had no chance to get education. I was born about the end tbe war ;I was free. I never felt the lash. I have been to college, and I graduated I know all that the white men know, 1 am fund of politics and elections. I have considered tbe whole bo matter and concluded that we colored people ought to make all the money we can out of the whites. They brought our forefathers to thin country as slaves: held them in bondage for centuries ; and would be in slavery to-d-ay but for tbe war. By that wc got our liberty ; not because the north oared for us; but a because by freeing us the north could injure aiid cripple the south. Since the war tbe whites look down upon us; they have no respect for ns; they like only so far as they can use us. vv e have no incentive to be honest nor hon orable. We cannot get olhce; we are shut out from allthc mors honorable stations mine; we owe mem noimng, nd cao never get even with them. Therefore. I am resolved to flicce the whites whenever I ean. Uncle Abe, they care nothing for your honesty. They do not stop to consider whether you are a thief or an honest man. it la all oue witn tne wiiitcs. iney see mat you are a negro and that is all they want of vou. Wes: .Now you sees what uehessor savs. vy hat uoes you say bout uai r Abe: Wal. I can't argy wid you edi- - cated niggers ; but I is gwlne to live an die honest. Prol: That is all right. It la natur al that you should. Your'master read the Bible to you and prayed over you ; he told you of the devil and hell, to frighten you from tbe melon patch and ban's nests. But such devices are oi no avail now. Tbe educated colored people cannot now be controled by such shams. Our policy is to be on the make. Get all we can and keep all we get. wes: iats my qigion Ab: I don't know nothing 'bout it. Prof: The time will come when we colored voters will elect all the olllccrs in the south. It will happen in this way. There will be no organized re publican party here. The democratic oartywill betheonly political organ! zation. There will be factions in that party. We colored people will hold the balance or power and win support me manor faction which pays us best. We can them elect who whoever we please, Then a rich harvest awaits tbe colored voters. Then we will get our rights. Lxit all Nik Sigma TIIK RKCORD.

about 7 o'clock.On motion of H. M. Grigsby the

convention expressed its profoundsorrow on acconnt of the death ofGen. B. F. Cheatham.

Our Candidates.The nominees ol last Monday's

convention are all of them soonmen. Hon. Z. W. Ewing has madereputation in the senate and as aparliamentarian and is well equipped for the duties of senator. Hon.T. B. Harwell Las served in thelegislature with distinction. Heranks with the foiemost men of thecountry as a scientiQe agriculturistand has given much study to thelaws that effect the farming inter-ests and to subjects and theoriesout of which laws may be evolvedthat will be of benefit to the people.Prof. Uafus P. lancy bas long beenan educator and ranks with ourbest informed men. His has beena country life also and he is thoroughly posted as to the needs anduemaiids of the ueoule and is capacitated to make his knowledge ofpractical utility in the legislature.ihese three men started out aheadin convention and were undoubtedly the choice of the people. Theydeserve and will doubtless receivethe unanimous support of democrats.

Capt. Jno. 0. Lester.Hon. Jno. Lester did not come

before the congressional conven-tion yesterday. Ilia defeat in theprimaries is not attributed by anyone to latfk of personal worth. Hispolitics was the sole cause of hisdefeat. There is not a better manin Tennessee than Capt. Lestei andthere is not a sounder democrat.His offense was in being out of limewith the majority four years ago.wuynsuouid oe remembered soseverely against him is a mysterywhen we consider that others whooffended more grievously hare notonly been forgiven but have been Gadvanced to higher places. Wewill not particularize. We predictthat now that the people of Gileshave reprimanded Capt. Lester lor Gwhat they please to thiak was a political sin they will turn to make Mamends for a punishment which itmust have grieved them to inflict. IHe will be a popular man and hewill deserve io be so. There wasnever a breath ot suspicion castupon his integrity. He is even accorded absolute political honesty.He is in thorough accord with theparty to-d- ay and not a word ofcomplaint or bitterness has escapedhis lips. an

Change of Date.We desire to call especial atten

tion to the change of date from the25th to the 27th, for the sale of thecelebrated Big Creek farm adver-tised in this naner. known as theWilkinson place. This is one oi ell

most celebrated farms in Gilescounty. It is situated in one of therichest values a bird ever flew over

this or any other country, and agood portion of it is level and asfertile as the far famed ralley of

Nile, and all of it is well watered. Ii is one of the most magniticent grass and stock farms in ted

state, and could be made toequal any of the blue "rrass farms for

Kentucky. It is naturally sus-ceptible of division into three ormore tracts, either one .of whichwould be a fine farm. The writer

t'iis has beeu over the place andexamined it, and he unhesitatinglypronounced it equal to any land inany country ho ever saw. Some- -

bodv will get a great bargain byattending this sale. Don't forgetthe date.

The Hon. John C. Lester then &

addressed the meeting and announced his withdrawal from thecongressional race. Capt. Lester'sspeech was a decided "hit" and wasthe most enjoyable one made,

Dr. J. C. Roberts also addressedthe club.

There was some discussion as tothe program of entertainment forthe 25th, when Mr. Taylor speakshere but no formal action was takenthrough it is expected that everydemocrat in Giles county shall cometo Pulaski on thai day and marchin the procession that will receiveCol. Taylor at our depot

We say emphatically that we arefor any movement that will give nsanother railroad. Our people aredetermined to have it, and that verysoon. The citizens of Huntsvillewould no doubt be glad to conferwith the citizens of Pulaski on thissubject. We visited Pulaski abouttwo years ago-o- n this subject andwe are glad to see that her peoplehave waked up. Huntsville Mercury.

We shall await the result of theElora effort and if it fails will pushour road. If Huntsville wants aroad this way she had better barkento our proposals now.

education. I was born about the endtbe war ; I was free. I never felt the

lash. I have been to college, and Igraduated I know all that the whitemen know, 1 am fund of politics andelections. I have considered tbe whole bomatter and concluded that we coloredpeople ought to make all the money wecan out of the whites. They broughtour forefathers to thin country as slaves:held them in bondage for centuries ; and

would be in slavery to-d-ay but fortbe war. By that wc got our liberty ;not because the north oared for us; but abecause by freeing us the north couldinjure aiid cripple the south. Since thewar tbe whites look down upon us;they have no respect for ns; they like

only so far as they can use us. vv ehave no incentive to be honest nor honorable. We cannot get olhce; we areshut out from allthc mors honorablestations mine; we owe mem noimng,

nd cao never get even with them.Therefore. I am resolved to flicce thewhites whenever I ean.

Prol: That is all right. It la natural that you should. Your'master readthe Bible to you and prayed over you ;

he told you of the devil and hell, tofrighten you from tbe melon patch andban's nests. But such devices are oino avail now. Tbe educated coloredpeople cannot now be controled bysuch shams. Our policy is to be onthe make. Get all we can and keepall we get.

wes: iats my qigionAb: I don't know nothing 'bout it.Prof: The time will come when we

colored voters will elect all the olllccrsin the south. It will happen in thisway. There will be no organized republican party here. The democraticoartywill betheonly political organ!zation. There will be factions in thatparty. We colored people will hold thebalance or power and win support memanor faction which pays us best. Wecan them elect who whoever we please,Then a rich harvest awaits tbe coloredvoters. Then we will get our rights.

Burned to Death amiRestored to Life.

I know of a man near .Maxev'a. (ja..who for ten or twelve years was almost

solid sore from head to loot.For three years, his appearance be

ing so horribly repulsive, lie refused tolet any one see him. Tho disease, after eating bis flesh, commenced on hisskull bones. He 'ried all doctors andmedicines without benefit, and no onothought he could possibly ricover. Atlast be began the use of B. II. B, andalter using six bot.tlef, big sores wereall healed and ho was a sound man.

lie looks just like a mad who badbeen burned to death and then restoredto life. The best men of tho countyknow of the case, and several doctorsand merchants havo tpoken of it us amost wonderful case.
