Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-05-03


WITHIN a few days the most gigantic
swindle Ct the age viii be completed,
and trains, it is proposed, will run to and
from San Francisco and New York IN
interruptedly. We say gigantic swindle
il view of the fact that, under pretence
OF their use in its construction, millions
of acres Of land and millions of dollars
in bonds have been wrung from the peo-
pie OF the United States, which, instead
Of beiag applied as promised, have
been pat 70 use as the capital
Of q Credit Mobilier that is the
basis OF u7numbered frauds upon
the pu6lic. Then, too, this Pacific RAil-
road Is q gigantic swiadle in view Of the
fact that it has proven aud will always
prove useless through the winter months,
and therefore does not reach the expect
aucy, desire or wish Of the people. A
grand Undertaking, al the New YORK
Tribune confesses, " it has been msrred
ia many ways, and is far from the state
Of efficiency ia which the Government
and the country had q right to expect
that il would be placed, when its long
looked for opening should cccur." TIne
will demonstrate, in increasing degree,
the u1reIisoiity Of this Northern
Pacific line, aad that, after all, the Mem.
phis route is the O1e that should have
been constructed, and that will have to
be to satisfy the demands Of an increas
ing population in Arizona, New Mexico
and California, and the demands Of 8
commerce. that will increase with tbs
facilities afforded for railway transport
alton across the continent. Had a cor
rapt Congress Corrupt according to tbs
confessions Of SPRAGUE and the New
York Trt60age), but done its duty by oui
section and people, We might now De abb
to chronicle The labor OF many Thousand
hands upon the El Paso route, and a fail
beginning for what we must have, oil
c)ms 10 = stand still.

OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER.

PHILADELPHIA. April 26s 1889.
Editors Memphis Appeal;
This has bssn q gala day with our
Odd Fellows IL O.. o F., and has as
tonished the citizens, who were not
aware OF the msgni6ceHce of the Order
in psraphernalia and numerical strength.
There are al least one hundred Thousand
spectators on the pTin6ipsll line of march,
and four iftbs of the populasicAwere out
to witness what was really q pageant.
One Of the o~riginstors Of Odd Fellowship
in your city, the noble hearted, genial
Harlan l. LeoE now q citizen Of Phila-
delphia. was in his glory. The Farms
worth OF Tennessee and other bright
lights of this humane and philanthr0pic
Order, were out In full strength, and
were the " observed of all Observers"
The /" Odd Fellows" made to-day al
era In their history, and the gorgeous
ness Of the turnout has had no equal in
similar parsdes in America.
The two strong men, candles OF the
great Democratic party who are candi-
dates for G~ubernatorial nomination, are

Death Of Hon. Games Williams.

In announcing ths death OF this dis
tinguished Fennesseean, the Banner of
Fridsy says:
Hon. James Williams was a con Of
Ethelred Williams, Esq a former citi-
zen of Granger county, Tenn. be was
educated Sc the military school at West
Point, and served with distinction rs
commander of a company in the Florida
war. He subsequently, founded and ed
tied the Knoxville Post, a paper cOD-
Quoted with signal ability by BIN for
masy years, and welding no small In
hnence in the Wing party in that por-
ton Of the State. The Rockville Post
suhsC quently became the Athens Post
now conducted by Samuel Wins, Esq
In 1913 Mr.. Williams was toe Represent
stiye of Knox in the State Legislature.
He afterward became largely interested
in the boating interests of the Tennessee
river, and accumulated a handsome for
tune by his enterprise and business man
agement. He also established he Bank
Of Chattanooga, and was one Of It's chief
owners.
10 1856 he actively engaged in the then
pending Presidential campaign, and was
the author Of q memorable series Of pa
pers during the canvass uver the sigma
lure OF an "An Old Line Wing" Hs
was appointed by President Buchanan
Minister 20 Constantinople, and in that
re. ponsible office, Es the Governments
representative, Rss distinguished for his
ability and efficiency as g dipiomatist.
For the protection Of church missi0ns-
ries at large, at q heavy PERSONAL ex-
pense, he made the tour OF the Turkish
~dominions, accompanied by an escort
and retinue OF eighty or a hundred per
sons, paying from his own private meant
The entire expense or the expedition,
~iourneying from Constantinople to d.
msscus, thence to Jerusalem and
Egypt. This self-imposed duty accom-
plssed MUCH to facilitate the holy work
Of American missionaries abroad.
At the outbreak Of the late wal be-
tween the sections, MIR. Williams en-
dered his resignation as Minister. His
two lovely and accomplished daughters
having married into the nobility Of Aus
tria, he returned to Europe and made his
home there up TO the time OF mis- death.
He leaves a wife and two daughters and
one son, and many other relatives in
Tennessee and the United States. He
was an estimable citiZ IN and an honor
to the State which gave him birth and
the Government which sent him sbroRd
as It's representative. In his early pn.it-
ical life he had distinguished himself as
q journalist and writer, and Wss the su-
thor Of q work on slavery ard other doc
umenes, indicative Of his superior mental
capabilities and Judgment. The an
/ nouneement of bis sudden death brings
pain aud sad regret to many warm
friends and admirers, besides the family
circle Of which he was 50 distinguished
an ornament,
Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-05-03

THERE Is q great deal Of work before
ne Democratic party OF Shelby county.
Notwithstanding the abuse and vitupera-
ion that HUNTER and LEWIS have been
beapin& pon each other; notwithstand-
ing tHgt each has proven the other har,
scouudrel, peIjurer, thief, corrupt, traitor
70 Marty, and much more not ft fer ears
petite, they are BOW negotiating for a
compromise, the basis Of which hiss All
been agreed upon, except the Chan-
ceHorsbip, for which HUNTER
contends with energy and per-
sistency. But, 1t is thought BY these
in the secrets of the osrpet-bsgGers, who
don't care q damn for the State only IS
they can plumber it, that HUNTER will
accommodate himself TO the emergency
and resign to SMITH the candidacy for
hat important position. This pisn' Il
adopted, will devoIve upon the Dsmoc-
racy q greater amount of labor thar has
for some weeks been anticipated. The
Radical party of Memphis q unit, Is
streng in all the means and appliances for
success that usually characterize
that party. They have the negroes com
pletely under their control, can use IN
limited means, have present command
of ell the offices to be filed, and in q
word, have all the advantages OF he
struggle. Under these circumstances 1t
behoOves our people to be on the alert,
and to keep steadily before them the
great objects had in view. These are
the defeat OF RadicaIism, the elevation Of
the Judiciary TO its former condition ofpu-
rity and Independence, and the ultimate
sHfranchisement OF the intelligence and
werth of the State. Men are as nothing
IN visw Of these demands OF the people.
CIiques must, therefore, be frovned
down, and q fair, open and candid con-
duct of sffaira characterize the leaders.
The delegates to the Convention should
be sent Dy the constituencies OF the sew
eral wards and districts, untrammsled
by instructions Cr pledges, and the Con-
yeution itself be held under the most
strict rules, and beyond the reach of cut
side il huencss. Everything for US de-
ponds upon the conduct of the COnven-
| ton and the character Of the ticket
that body may put forward. II it is
what the people have 8 right to expect
from the limited circle Of available Dem
Ocrars TO be selected from, we may look
for the full strength Of the party; if not
we may count upon q defeat more dis
astrous than the last. The people de-
mand fair, open and candid dealing.
Any other course will beget distrust and
tend to the loss Of many voters, who
while anxious for the party auc2ess, vii
only lend themselves to ii by the supper
OF men of ability, integrity and mora
worth.

with the delibsration due 10 this impOrt-
ant subject, and carefully avoid any
GAUSS of offense while firmly presenting
the American side Of the question to Her
Majesty's Government when occasion
shall require. No one connected with
the administration, including the Pfesi-
dent, nor does the British Minister, APP
prehends any injurious consequences
from the almost unanimous rejection of
the Alabama claims treaty by the SEN
ate, and this is stated on the authority of
gentlemen who, fearful Of serious diff,
culties, made special snd private inquiry
in official circles, and thus satisfied them
selves OF the truth OF this statement.
Henry T. Blow has been appointed

securing 8 full and isir vote. The prob
ability Is that Prts ident Grant will be
