trict is close and will be warmly contested,
There is growing disposition among indie
pendent thinkers who have heretofore afii-
lated with the Republican party to cut
loose from that organization. To that class
Judge Allen will be able to appeal success
fully for their suii'rages. He understands
fully the nature of the evils which Cypress
the country like u nightmare, and he has the
capacity to point out their remedy,
and To give clear exposition Of
the doctrines and principles which
govern the action of his party. His large
personal following throu ghout this district,
his extensive personal acquaintance, the
suavity and grace of his manner, alike to
all classes in all stations of life, will give to
his side of the campaign enthusiasm and
devoted, untiring workers, He will,
as all Democrats who hope for success
next November should, welcome the intro
duction of the "bloody. shirt element into
the canvass Nothing will so quickly
impress the minds of rejecting men with
the poverty of Republican campaign mate
rial as these echoes from time that is
dead and gone. To revive sectional hatred;
to plant discord between men of common
lineage; to array races one against the
other; TO subvert the principles
underlying society and to inevitably
bring about the destruction of
our institutions are some Of the fruits
that would follow the success of the
bloody shirt" doctrine. The country tired
of this some time ago. 1t wants no more
of it. 1t looks to its public legislators to
address themselves TO the material welfare
of the country-to measures of peace, con-
cord and prosperity. No man more fully
realizes the restlessncss and senstiveness of
the people upon public affairs just at this
iuncture than Judge Allen, and n the cam
paign which has just begun he will show
himself equal to every call made upon him.
With our candidate, with thorough system
of organization and with unity of action,
our success is placed beyond all doubt

country, the enforce dlencss of hundreds of
our workingmen, and the consequent in
crease of suffering and crime, is the direct
result of the financial Legislation inaugur-
ted and carried out by Republican congress
scs working in the interest of bondholdcrs
and specializing capitalists and we espec.
tally dcnouncc the act Of the Republican
congress Of 1869 declaring the United
States bonds, purchased by United States
currency, rcdccmabc in coin, the contrac.
ton of the greenback circulation, and all
the acts discriminating against and dcprc.
cating the value Of the money of the pco-
pie, AS acts infamous in their origin, Grim
inal in their design, and disastrous to the
industry and commerce of our country.
We therefore demand, in the interest of
the people, that the United States bonds
shall be declared rcdcemablc in United
States treasury notes, the same kind ofmoney
by which they were purchased of the gov
eminent, and that they be made taxable
that the National Bank notes be withdrawn
from circulation and Grcenbacks issued
therefor; that the volume of the currency be
increased to such an amount AS to satisfy all
the demands of the business of the county,
industrial and commercial and that the same
be made payable and receivable for all debts,
dues and demands, public and private.
Resolved, That the vast majority of the
people are laboring men, who produce the
wealth of the country; while the legislation
inaugurated by the Republican party has
been in favor the bondholdV and the
moncyed power; and we now demand that
in future of the legislation of the country
shall be in favor Of the laboring masses, and
not Of those who are controlling capital to
the injury and oppression of labor.
The convention then adjourned with
much enthusiasm for the ticket.
Hurrah for Allen!

THE nomination of Mr.. Thos. W. Hall-
day by the Legislative convention at Jones'
boro yesterday is the best that could have
been made for us and isin every way accept
able to our people. Mr.. H. has many of
the qualities which give to members of the
general assembly success as Legislators and
which prove of great service to their con-
stitutcnts. While not an orator in the
common acceptation Of that much abused
word, he has the gift of importing to others
what he knows himself in an earnest. clear
and ineligible way, and although young
man he has, through his own efforts,
achieved success in business, and the ex-
pericnce derived from such a training
gives a practical turn 10 all his views
upon public questions. OF late years
his connection with county and municipal
matters has given him an extended knowl-
edge of the workings of our State laws,
and he has more particularly familiarized
himself with those bearing upon the reve-
nues, their collection and expenditure. His
administration of the affairs of the county
has been marked with prudence and econo-
my, and all his efforts have been directed
toward tightening the burdens of taxation.
The same can truthfully be said of his
course in the city council. To the lcgisla-
ture he will carry the practical experience
he has thus earned, and we predict for him
there career Of usefulness to his constitu-
ents and of honor to himself. His cleo.
ton is assured.

AT the Jonesboro convention yesterday
the following resolution was adopted

AT the Jonesboro convention yesterday
the following resolution was adopted;
WHEREAS, The establishment OF a deep water
channel at the mouth OF the Mississippi river, by
means Of the Eads' letty system, is now al admit
ted success, and deep water outlet has been per
manently secured to the commerce OF the Great
Valley ofthe Mississippi, therefore,
Resolved, A the sense of this convention, that
liberal appropriations commensurate with the mag.
nitude of the end in view and with the value and
importance OF the results to be achieved should be
made by the nail lnal congress for the speedy i'm
provement OF the navigation Of the Mississippi and
Ohio rivers, and their tributaries, throughout their
entire length
1t is proper that the people Of this dis
trict should express themselves on this
subject through their conventions. 1t is a
measure of the greatest importance not only
to ourselves but to all that vast region of
country embraced in the Mississippi and
Missouri valleys and we hope the example
set at Jonesboro yesterday will be followed
at all political meetings of the people
held in the country interested in it. The
friends of the improvement of the Missis-
sippi river could render no greater service
in its aid than to keep up constant
agitation of it, and see to it that their repre-
sentatives in Congress are sound on this
point.

THE nomination of Judge W. J. Allen for
Congress by the Democracy Of this district,
in convention assembled, at Jonesboro YES
terday, is an event which has been con.
sidered almost certain from the time he
entered the field to contest for the honor up
to its contamination. His conceded abilities,
his experience in public life and his famili-
arity with the wants of this district
peculiarly fit him as its representative.
Besides, on the floor of the national house
OF representatives, Judge Allen will be
more than provincial delegate His
large acquaintance with public men and
measures and with the routine of national
Legislation give him an advantage over
men less favored in this respcct--an adj
vantage that will rebound no less to the
material interests of his constituents than to
ms own fame. In one important respect
the Democratsare fortunate in having j odge
Allen for their standard bearer. This dis.

Tue Greenback Nationals have an oath.

ducing voters to enter Voters should
beware Of the men who thus seek to induce
them to become the subservient tools of de-
signing men, who, while pretending to be
the friends of the people, are seeking nothing
but their own ACKNOWLEDGMENT. We say
this in patriotic way, because the Demo.
Gratis Of this part of the state will be greatly
benefited by the National movement. 1t
will injure the Republicans much more
than the Democrats, but il would be wise in
the Republicans who are disguised with Re.
publcanism to come into the Democratic
party at once. They can gain nothing
wasting time by tarrying at the out -ofthe.
way house of the Nationals. The almost
persuaded Republicans should NOT stand
upon the order of their coming over to the
Democracy, but come at once. The dark

THE Democrats will soon occupy common
ground on the financial question in every
State of the Union. In Texas lately Dem
ocratic state convention declared for one
currency for the government and tho people.
laborer and officer, pensioner and soldier,
producer and bondholder; that all bonds
and obligations of the national government
ought to be paid in legal tender notes of the
United States, except where it is otherwise
provided by the original law under which
they were issued; and all that can be called
in and paid now should be paid at once and
the remainder as soon as il can be lawfully
done. In Colorado Democratic State con-
vention demanded the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, and the repeal of the Re-
sumption act and substitution Of United
States legal tender paper for national bank
notes and its permanent establishment as
the sole paper money of the country, to be
made receivable for all dues to the govern
ment, the amount of such issues to be reg
ulated by law. The Democrats who are in
clined to run off after the Nationals, should
before they start ascertain the position of
their own party on the money question.

Mr.. T. T. ROBINSON, the gentleman asso-
ciated with Mr. Halliday on the Legislative
ticket, lives in Jackson county and is by oc-
cupation farmer. Although comparative
ly unknown in this county, the fact that he
was the choice of the Jackson delegation is
of itself sufficient recommendation as to his
fitness for the position. Those who enjoy a
personal acquaintance with the gentleman
represent him as young man of energy
and intelligence and close student of the
wants of the people. His personal charac-
ter is beyond reproach. The convention
honored itself in giving to the Democracy
of this senatorial district Messrs. Robinson
and Halliday AS its representatives in the
lower house of next General Assembly.
