A few restless journalists in our State
continue to howl for tue form alton of
new party. The Democrats and anti
radical masses should turn a deaf ear
to these extremely patriotic and designs
ing gentlemen. If they are too pure to
affiliate with the only organized oppo-
nents of the radical party now their
snowy garments should never be allowed
to futter in political breeze in the
future. The Democracy of Tennessee
is abundantly able to cope successfully
with its organized enemy and will
always como out visterious if IT'S mem
bers can be reused 20 action. This is all
that is needed.
