ClarkSville Tobacco Leaf, June 10th:
We notice from some OF u Memphis
exchanges that General Lake E. Wright
is favorably spoken CT as a probable
candidate for congress from the Mem.
phis district. We do not wish to dispar-
age the claims of any other person for
the place, but from what we happen to
know OF General Wright we are satisfied
a better man could not be found for that
or any other position in the gift of the
people of Tennessee. He is one of those
magnetic men who possess all the quail.
ties required in these uncertain times to
tit him for the position of a true repre-
sentative Of the people. Bold and fear.
less in the defense Of what is right. and
uncompromising in his opposition to
whatever is wrong, and possessed of an
intellectual vigor equal to the demands
OF the times, be is just the kind of man
TO send to congress. We would be clad
to see him elected from the Memphis
district, for he would be a representa-
tive of whom Tennessee would Justly
ieel proud. He is a son OF Hon. Archi.
bald Wright, who adorned our Supreme
bench before the war, and is not one
whit behind his father 10 all that makes
the truly great and useful man. Let the
people of his district seud him to con.
gress, and we will have another OF the
best men of the State in the service of
the people.
