ORGANIZATION,

The Republican State Central Commit
tee met at Nashville on Wednesday of last
week and organized by electing the follow
ing officers:

VIM. Spence, of Murfreesboro, Vice
Chairman.
Moses r. johnson, of Nashville, Secre-

In accordance with this resolution we
suggest that the Committee for the Eastern

We suggest in this connection, that
where there is no organization in counties,
that it be provided for Immediately. No
time is to be lost. Election day will be here
soon and much work remains to be done.

He who has been taking his neighbors
goods has been known to cry ''stop thief y
with as much avidity as if he were very
saint The Democrats of Indiana have
been whining piteously, and affecting q
great deal of virtuous Indignation at what
they charge to be the Inscriptions knave-
ry of Republicans, in colonizing negroes
from Kentucky to vote in the coming cleo
ton in that State. The Courier-Jouradi
puts on sanctimonious face, and gravely
lectures the colored men upon the enormi-
ty of such a crime. 1t all turns out just as
we thought it would. 1t is a feigned at
tack, ruse on the part of Democrats, to
divert attention from what they them
selves are doing. They are colonizing
Democrats from Kentucky TO carry the
State for Hendricks.

WILL THE PEOPLE SUBMIT !

Bear in mind, honest voters of Tennes-
see, that notwithstanding Gov. Browns
administration has been charged with the
loss of ten-and-a-half millions in the dis
position of delinquent railroads, and not
withstanding it is charged that this loss has
occurred through Encouragement and
corruption, he nor none of his organs have
ever dared to deny it, In his Lebanon
speech Gov. Brown grew indignant over
Senator Gibson's illusions to the peniten-
tiary lease, but not one word did he offer
in explanation of the great fraud perpe-
trated upon the tax payers of the State,
whereby they were swindled out ofmilliOns
of money that went into the pockets of
corrupt railroad ring, whose convenient
TOOL he has been found, in every instance
where they have seemed to desire his yalu-
able services. We challenge him or his
friends to deny that this loss has occurred
and we defy them to show that it has not
been the result of fraud and theft, and cor
ruption of the darkest.and most damninp
character. Is it possible that this RING.
with Gov. Brown to assist them, supposes
that they have acquired such a power over
the people, as to hush them into silence in
the face of such charges? We do not be-
lieve that they can do it, yet that seems
to be their programme. We do not
believe that the people, under the
influence of subsidized partisan press, OF
in the blindness of partisan zeal, are to
be circumvented and robbed in that way.
We do not believe that they will stand as
sheep before their shearers and be robbed
of their hard earnings in any such man.

AGREAT deal has been said about the
''bloody liquor law" in this country, with
a view of injuring Hon. Horace Maynard
Now the fact is, and the records of Congress
show it, that Mr.: Maynard has favored
every modification of the law that divests
it of its complications and places the man
Of small capital on an equal footing with
the man of large capital. If Mr.. Maynard
is to be held responsible for the liquor law
under which so many have been indicted
what is to be done with Mr.. Johnson, with
whose signature it became law. He was
somewhat famous for vetoing bills which
he did not approve. Why didn't he veto
this? The. inference, therefore, is that he
approved it.
