REPLY TO T, K. BROWN.
A Card from A. G. West.
As I see my name mentioned in
the Citizen by T. K. Brown, in con
nection with certain part of the con
duct of the campaign of 1SS4, it is
simply due to myself that I should
give the facts to the "public
T. K. Brown asserts that I had
whiskey at the Black Mountain
speaking in 1834. It is true I had
seme whiskey there, and it is also.
true that H. A. Gudger, the apostle
of prohibition, drank frequently and'
copiously of that whiskey Not sat
isfied with single drinks, he asked if
there was any moie left, as he ex
pected it would be a dry time at
Coopers on the next day. I gave
m&f a quart. j " ' ;. '
As for .the Loughran account
which Mr. Brown says he inspected,
I can state of my own knowledge
that Mr. Pearson expressed great
surprise and indignation, and that
he denounced the same as an at
tempt at blackmail. The lie v. (f)
Mr. Brown seems' very familiar
with Mr. Pearson's barroom; ac
counts. Possibly the public would
like to know whether or not the
Rev. t?) T. K. Brown has paid his
own whiskey bill with Hampton &
Featherston. 1 am informed that
$9.75 now stands on their books
against him, for whiskey used by
him, and as yet unpaid for by the
Bev. (!) gentleman.j

- I am a candidate for the office of
jClerk ofithe Superior Court of Buu-
'ombecoynly. Tho action of tho
.county democratic convention on tl &
?8th August, is alieatly known
throughout the county. I need n-.'t
dtscuss it here, further than to sm
that 1 believe it to be vitiated by
fraud and by the violation of thf
plainest principles and usages of Uo
democratic partyj and I .'" propose t
submit tlje issue to tho good and hon
est men of the county. )
Very j lieepectl ully,

To the People of Buncombe:
I hereby announce myself a Can
didate' for the oflice of Clerk of the
Superior Court ot Buncombe. J I am
a republican, and am opposed to
the present system of County gov
ernment, and am specially opposed
to the arbitrary system of govern
ment we have to submit to in Bun
combe. I am also opposed to re
publicans sacrificing their man
boKlin their votes for independent
democrats, so called. If such
be democrats at all, they sh nld
stand by and support their parly,
and if they are not democrats, that
is if they do not endorse the prin
ciples of the democratic pany in
this state, then they are in truth
republicans, and ir they have upt
manhood and courage enough to
declare their republicanism while
opposing democratic principle t hey
are not, entitled to democratic or
republican votes. . 1 am a lepubli
can, and not only expect the votes
of republicans, but of those who do
not eudorse the democratic candi
dates or policy. 1 am constrained
lo thus announce myself becau.-e
no candidate, yet out, seems willing
to declare himself a republican ; hD
the same time there is a candidate
who is asking republican votes be
cause he opposes the democrat io
nominee. If I do not get a single
vote but myjowu, I am a candidal
for the oflice of Clerk as a nquaiH,
trua ? republican, and I with to st e
whether the republicans of Bur
combe will maintain their tuauho d
and vote for a straight republicaL,
or be caught by the hj pecracy or
selfish democrats, and vote for them.
If they do, tbey have no right to
claim to be - republicans. I shal
thank my. republican friends lor
their support, and if electt-d I nha:l
discharge the duties of "the office
honestly and faithfully if. not elect
ed I shall feel I have at lea mair
tained republican self respect and
integrity. E. F. CLABk.
