Julian a fair chance and if Mr Julian was as great, and good a man as indicated by Judge Rich ards letter and as indicated by ihe testimony of other good men in dif ferent parts of the county, it was certainly commendable in Mr. Brown to do so, and wc believe the majority of the people of the coun ty think as much. Mr. II. O. Brown and S. J. Brown have both been in our town elec tioneering and we never heard them make any personal attack on 3Ir. Beall, nor say anything in the least disrespectful of him.

Mr. Brown although apparently a stout and robust man carries a withered arm by his side made so by a minnie bail, while in the ser vice of Ids country.
