MORE OFTHE sPIRIr THAT WINS

From the Trenton Gazette, Sept. IL
In no period of the history of Tennessee
have political parties been in more lndehns-
BILE or confused state than at the present time.
There is no organized political party in
Tennessee, unless wei except the Radical
party. which is thoroughly organized and
ever vig,lant, and hopeful of success through
the apathy and defections in tbs Democrat
ic ranks. II is encouraged to nske sun
greater exertioDs to achieve success ID 1874,
since our own divisions last year gave them
= msiority of the congressman, and came
near electing q Radical Governor. ShaH
we repeat the ridiculous farce OF cam
paign witnessed IN 1872, or shall all the eie-
ments opposed to the Radical party unite
for the good of the State? Already
the press of the State is bringing forward
the names of its respective frlends as
candidates for overnor, and insisting that
this or that division of the State Is en-
titled to the Governorship. In this matter
we shall know no East, Middle or West Ten
nessee. but shall keep in view tie interest
of the entire State, and labor to organize
and compact into one great party, all the
elements opposed 10 the Grant admlnlstIa-
tration. We have no private ENDS 10 SUD
serve or peTSOUtl preferences W NASNt. 49,
will look to Stale Convention fresh from
he people to put ticket in the field when
we will give it our cordial support. Success
can only be achieved through organization
and mutual compromise, and with these the
Radical party viii not stand the ghost OF
chapca in this State; without these dis
graceful defeat awaits Us. In the election
for Congressman for the State at large
last wear, the total vote poiled was
1898 b lots. OF these the Republi-
cans (including the colored yosersl
cast So S25; the johnson men, 1900, and
the Straight Democrats 65, 1SS. With the
concentration of the Cheatham and the
johnson vote, if that be possible, and can
be brought about in time for the next Cleo
ton, the Republicans would have to over
come q majority of at least 2z,z6S: IL is
not to be denied that but for the detection
of the johnson vote of last year, the cleo
ton of Maynard tor the State at large, and,
doubtless, of majority of the Republican
Represent tives in Congress, would have
been impossible. It will thus be seen that
we have nothing to fear if all who are op-
posed to the Radical party will act wisely,
participa' in the primary conventions and
support the nominees. II Tennessee should
fall into the hands of the Radicals next
year she would become hopalessly bank

GRaNT,s sYMPATHIEs.

Sons of Grants friends claim for him
that he has 'sshown bis sympathy with the
commercial needs Of the country" The
Hon. George w. Julian, of Indians, an in
dependent Republican, points ont wherein
he hiss manifested sympsthies of another
kind; sympathies, in fact, with such rail-
road z, anipnlators and gamblers as James
Fisk, Jay Gould, and others OF that lk'
Mr.. julien states that on the pretense OF
'moving the crops" the people have seen
him sssumepowers which no civilized des-
pot would care to exercise, in issuing mil
lions of currency without any warrant OF
law, and on his own personal ca
price. They Lave seen him grant
leave of absence to Gen. Sickles
from the Spanish mission to aid him
in an Effort 20 get control of the Erie
railroad for his own private advantage, and
s.issuing a ridiculous order authorizing the
inspection of the books Of the company,
which his own Secretary Of the Treasury
was obliged to revoke. In disregard of law,
and in violation of the constitution and bis
osth of Office, they have seen him quarter
inc federal soldiers on the Cherokee neutral
lands in Kansas, to protect a railroad corpo'
ration in driving from their homes hundreds
of settlers who claimed the lands occupied
by them in good faith under the presumption
laws" The Chicago Times insists that
these facts tend, or at all events seem to
tend, to thu conclusion that the ''sYmpathies
Of Grant are rather with the railroad rings
of grabbers than with the commercial needs
of the country.

SENATOR WINDOW, Of Minnesota, writes
to the Minneapolis Tribune that be intends
to introduce at the next session Of Con-
gress bill "providing for covering into the
Treasury the back pay, together with all
other balances of The increased compensa-
ton of members Of the forty-third Con-
gress." Mr.. v indom says be has not
drawn his pay, and does not intend 10, but
since 1t would be the merest farce 10 return
it to the Treasury under the present law, be
has refraiped from committing that act OF
"sheer demagogism." Mr.. Window never
made this discovery until the people of
Minnesota made it decidedly hot for him on
account of retaining his back p,y.

"This makes total of over $1,000, and,
with the addition of the Presidents salary,
makes the expense Of the executive estab-
Ushment over $4,000 for this year. 1t is
well Known, also, that many items OF ex-
pense which an ordinary household would
be subjected to are provided for in other sp-
propria.ions, appearing only, as the gas
nsed at the Executive Mansion appears, IN
some general appropriation.
at should be added that no President bias
heretofore complsined of the inadequacy OF
the former salary ard provision made by
law for that office: indeed it has always been
understood that Presidents, prior to 1871,
have been able to live upon tneir salaries in
a styie satisfac DRY TO the public and to
themselves, and have besides saved some
thing ont of it as an addition to their pii-
vase fortunes"
There is 10 question that at the close OF
Grants Presidency he viii be the richest
man who ever left the White House. Both
The Adamses had a small fortune at the
time of their election; Van Buren, and
Polk were well off; Taylor had plants-
ton; Pierce had bit of land; Buchanan
had some productive investments; Lincoln
and johnson had but q small show OF
worldly goods. Grant is already richer
;hsn he richest of them, and very much
ricter than most of them. His houses,
lands, h.rses, personal property, stocks,
bonds, and SO forth, represent a great
deal of money. he has treated the
presidential office simply as a money
mAkirg machine, while his predsl essors
have regarded it 3 great trust from the
people, and several of them retired
poorer than when they entered the flee.
But not one of them ever iobbied in his
Own interest, as the proof shows Grant has
done.

A few days since we copied from the
Athens Post an article in which the follow
ing occurred:
ave are painfully aware of the democrat
lied condition of the Democratic party IN
Tennessee. But as the mistakes
which led to the present unfortunate and
discouraging condition had their origin
mostly at Nashville, It is meet and proper
that the work OF concert, cancellations and
harmony should begin there When mai
to- are out of gear at headquarters, o
course the dissatisfaction will extend all
along the line. The two papers at Nashville
can do more than all others IN the desired
work. Their circulation and influence is
general, and their example would have q
most happy effect"
While thankfully acknowledging the com-
pfiment to our circulation and influence,
ard anxious to acquit ourselves ccnsci en-
tiously Of the responsibility that at
taches to influential position, we
would call the attention of our
respected contemporary to the recent MUM
clpAl election here. Ii he cons its lesson
as we do, be will perceive that, in the strug-
gle with Radicalism, we need help. Coun-
try as well as city is interested In the pres
eryation of our State autonomy, and the
country press have part to perform in the
necessary work of reconciliation and hsrmo-
ny. Do not depend too much on "head-
quarters" to adjust matters. That saVors
rather of the Centralism against
which we struggle. she dquarters'
can have no legitimate power be-
yond that derived fromthe ranks and file.
Such is the central idea Of American de-
morscy. We want the people to speak
out. We wish the people, as well as the
politicians, to lock forward and be prepared
for the perils and possibilities of the situs-
ton. And we are aware of no means by
which the people may be heard, except
through correspondence and the country
press
