Ben BUTLER has Il pretty sure thing
on the goyernorship of Massachusetts,
this year. He has been nominated by
the greenbackers, the workingmen, the
Independent republicans and a section of
the democratic party. Another thing
that works in his favor: the straight re-
publican nominee is by 40 means as
strong rs Talbot. The republicans are
alarmed over Massachusetts, and with
good reason. Buffers chances are de.
cidedly good.

NOT A PARALLEL CASE.

rr
The Democratic editor who tries
to show parallel cases between that
of the Electoral Commission in
1877, and the Governor and Coun-.
Gil in Maine in 1879, must take his
readers for a set Of stupid asses.
In the case Of the Electoral Com
mission, it acted upon a reasonable
construction of plain statute. In
Louisiana, law existed, providing
for a Returning Board, with power
to revise the ballot, and to prevent.
elections from being carried by
force, bloodshed and savage vio-
lence. In the face of
state y OF affairs, the,
most disgraceful that, ever cursed
any people in modern times, this
Returning Board, acting under the
plain provisions of the law, exer-
cised a right and refused to count
ballots wet with the blood murdered
white and colored Republicans.
The Electoral Commission recog>
nized the action of this Returning
Board as final and declined to go
behind the returns.
But in Maine, the Democratic
Governor, without any excuse what.
ever that will satisfy the mind of
any intelligent honest man of
any party, proceeded to
throw out enough Repub-
licans elected to the Legislas
ture to make that body Demo-
cratic. That was all. It was with
Names INSCRIPTIONS Governor and
his unprincipled associates, purely a
question of mathematics. They
desired only to know how many
Republicans it was necessary to
count out and how many Demo.
Gratis to count in, in order to give
the desired Democratic majority.
It was a fraud without a pretext,
bold steal, such an one as would
have sent a thrill of pleasure
through the heart of a John A.
Murrell. It was a disregard of
common decency, and base use of
authority that would have done
credit to the most ignorant, bloodo
thirsty, vicious, corrupt and tyran-
nical satrap that ever lorded it over
the pettiest and most degraded
province.

else our shortcomings may be, we
are free from the political excuses
that have cursed other communities
and We are glad to have the people
Of the North settle among us. We
have always contended for tt-ese for
every right we ourselves possess,
and will do so still. We are glad
to see them come. Let them divide
up our farms into smaller ones and
cultivate them. with profit. Let them
help to develop our mines and grow
rich with US in doing SO. Let them
use our unsurpassed water power to
their own profit and to ours. Let
them infuse into us the energy and

Let them be our neighbors and en-

all its advantages, and let US make
them understand that there is no

that We do not accord to them.
We believe that this is the feeling
which animates five out of every
six of the people of Tennessee
now, and with the spread Of educa-
ton and intelligence under our free

assure the world that prejudice is
about to take its flight from our
borders, and that we are about to

Mr.. EDITOR: According to an
nouncement the Athenian Literary
Society held its semi-annual enter
tainment ia the College Chapel on the
18th inst. At $50 o. m. the exercises
began. There was present a large au-
dience, which was held delighted fer
several hours. The music consisted
of the college string band, with Miss
Lizzie Brown at the organ, Mr.. Will
Rhea first violinist, Mr.. Thos. Will
liams second. Mr.. Rhea draws the
bow almost to perfection, while Mr..
Williams can not be initiated. The
organist needs nothing from our pen
to add to her already well deserved
reputation as q musician. Some few
pieces of vocal music were also had
which were highly appreciated.

THE KNOXVILLE CHRONICLE
And Weekly Wing and Chronicle
for 1880,


During the coming Presidential
year, the DAILY CHRONICLE will
take an active part in the vigorous
discussions of oil political issues
involved, and will, at the same
time, keep its readers fully posted
on all the important events of. the
day. It will do whatever is honest
and legitimate to promote the sue
cess of the Republican ticket,
placing fidelity to the interests of
that party above any personal aims
OF privata ambition. To this end
it will favor the selection of good
men with clear records, per-
sonal and political, for standard
bearers in the coming canvass, and
when such are selected, it will do
everything reasonable to secure
their success.
In State politics, the CHRONICLE
will support no man for any Office,
from Governor down to constable,
who is not in favor of paying the
State debt upon terms satisfactory
to the creditors of the State. It
will oppose the efforts of repudia-
tionists to drag the entire State
down to their low and degraded
standard, first, last and all the time,
and even though the repudiationists
should be successful, it will continue
to denounce them and their, infa-
nous schemes. IL
The WING AND CHRONICLE will
be published weekly, as before, and
will be made up from the issues Of
the DAILY CHRONICLE. twill con-
tain choice selection of miscella-
neous matter each week, together
with editorials, telegraph and local
matter. Especial attention will be
given its columns, and everything
that could be Objectionable in the
family circle will be carefully ex-
cluded. It will be the object of the
publishers to make it a welcome
visitor into the families of the
country.
It's market reports will be carefully
revised every Tuesday and made as
nearly perfect and reliable as pos
sible.
The Agricultural columns Of the
WING AND CHRONICLE shall receive
close attention, and will be i'm
proved all the time. In this depart
ment, the views of practical farmers
on topics Of interest will be invited.
The proprietors of these two old
and well established journals will
spare no pains to keep up and add
to their established reputation, and
are confident that they will make
them worth many times more thar
the subscription price charged.

TENNES SEE AND NORTHERN
EMIGRATION.

Perhaps at this time there is no
question that commends itself to
the thoughtful consideration of the
people of Tennessee more, than how
TO induce good, intelligent Northern
and Eastern emigrants to come
within our State borders and make
this land Of plenty, peace and good
will their home. The CHRONICLE
has labored for this object these
many years, and proposes to do SO
still. We have here our party diff
ferences, and expect to have them,
but upon this question there ought
to be no difference, and really is
none worthy of mention. When
considering the best interests Of the
Commonwealth, We should all rise
above self or mere party, to the
higher plane and broader platform
than any race, creed or party can
establish, i..e., GA neighborly love
Of common humanity and the com>
mon interests of Commonwealth"
During great political struggles
parties may enter deep into the
strife and paint in strong colors our
respective partisan fabrics. We
believe the South has suffered great
ly from partisanship, and we suffer
still, but it is unjust to hold all the
people of Commonwealth respon-
sible for the frothy illusions of a
Robert Toombs.
But, here in Tennessee, we have
never had the experience Of States
South of US. With possibly a rare
exception here and there, Tonnes
see is as safe and free State to
live in, socially, morally and politi>
cally, as most of the States North
and East. And yet we have suf-
fered, unjustly, from the excuses of
outlaws in Mississippi, Louisiana
and elsewhere, which we could not
prevent and for which we are not,
in any sense, responsible. We of
Tennessee are reaping the results Of
such overshadowing in the minds of
the people Of the North, regardless
of party. Without regard to our
personal views on the question Of
State. bonds, the election of last
August shows that every man may
vote as he pleases, if he has only
the pluck and intelligence to stand
up for his right to do SO. Repub=
licans and Democrats voted on both
sides of that question without re-
straint. We trust and have every
reason to believe that at the next
election all will vote as they please
in every portion Of the State. IF
it is not true, it is needless for us
to expect Northern emigration.
Men will not live whore they are
not free to talk and vote as they
please.
Tennessee has been much misun-
