COL. JOHN C. BURCH.
HIS Visit and Speech.

The Democrats and people generally
of Bolivar were greatly pleased to have
q visit from this sterling Democrat and
distinguished editor of the Nashville
american. Col BurCh has besu making
speaking tour throughout West aud
Middle Tennessee in the interests of
ouT State and National tickets. He
says the outlook is highly enooura ging
As to the State ticket. 1t will roll up q
heavy majority. General Nancy is
stronger than Thomas 10 Middle and
East Tennessee, and that the strength
of the two is found only in Republican
counties and neIghborhoods. The vast
bulk of the Democrats are untouched
by either or beth of these political ad-
VentuIers.
He says that the skies are bright in
relation to the Nationsl ticket, and that
Mr., Tildsn is the coming man.
Monday night, by appointment, C1t
Burch delivered in our Cours House an
able and convincing argument on poHti

his auditory with resume of the crush.

in bold outline the ruinous rule of the
Republican party.
He showed that in Mr. Tildsn we had
real, positive reformer, of the purest
and best mould, and that h elevation to
the Presidency would open a bright
page in our National history. Did
space permit, We would with pleasure
follow Col Burch IN his mastery ad-
dress.
He made fac impression upon the
minds of our people, and he can rest as
sured that his name and reputation are
safe in the hands of the Hardemau
Democracy. His pen, as we'll as his
tongue, is doing noble service in the
cause of Democratic s3slisaoy. May
be live long to maintain and illustrate
its principles.

THE DARK DAY.

The 18th of May, 1880, was distinguished
by the phenomenon of remarkable dark
ness all over the Northern States, and Is
often referred to as "the dark day." At
that time the Legislature Of Connecticut
was in session at Hartford. A very gener-
al opinion prevailed that the day Of judg-
ment was at hand. The House of Repre-
sentatives adjourned. A proposal to ad-
journ the Council was under consultation.
Wbsn the opinion of Colonel Davenport
was asked, he answered: II am against an
adjournment. The day of Judgment is
either approaching or it is not. If It is ]

therefore, that candles may be brought"

[ would be willing to see the 'hoDor

HOW THE POOR ARE TAXED.

"The Federal tar is upon articles Of
turuTy, and if you do not buy them you
do not pay 1T Hence 1T can be avoided"
d. B. THOMAS ADDRESS.
Here are few items, taken from list
ofnearly 1900, comprising the tariff list
of the Government
Spool cotton, worth SIC per spool, 2ac
per spool is tax.
A wool hat, worth 75e, 273c of it is tax.
A pair of blankets, worth 1915, $1.7O
of it is tax.
A pair of trace chains, worth 75c, 113c
of it is tax.
We might go on through the whole
list, and show that most Of the 400 ar
ticles subject to tariff duty are necessa-
ries, and not luxuries, as Mr.. Thomas
says.

A WILLING SACRIFICE.

After listening to the views of the
candidate for Governor who favored as
with a cell few days ago upon State
issues, I feel that the welfare of the
whole State of Tennessee demands that

upon the altar of my country. I, like

of the State, and that the masses of the

policy. Therefore, like him. am willing
