with a few exceptions, gives
Judge Wright hearty and enthu-
siastic support.
Monroe Democrat: Let the
mountains of EastTennesseeecho
the cry, TO your tents, Q Israel!
and let the rallying cry be, Rea-
son to the rescue, and may God
defend the Wright.
Newport Sentinel No think
ing, tried and true Democrat,who
has the interest of his party at
heart, can afford to forsake The
regular organization and wander
away in these perilous times.
Murfreesboro Neecs:: If there
is in the Wilson faction any man
of prominence who is not an Of
flee seeker, we would like to have
his name. Information on this
point will be gratefully received.
Upton Record: The issue is
no longer between paying the
whole debt ON the one hand
and compromise on the other;
but it is between compromise on
the one side, represented by John
V. Wright, and reputation on
the other, as represented by 5.
T. Wilson.
Bolivar Balletin: The Wright
platform is the safest medium to
get the fairest expression of pub
lie sentiment. Not as an ex-
tremist but as a conservative, we
recognize the majority platform
as the only constitutional meth
cd of solving this yexed ques-
ton.
Savannah Transcript We
would like for some ''repudia-
ZIONIST" to rise up and explain
how the debt can be got rid Of
on his plan. This term Glow
tax" has become hateful to us
because it serves as a blind fol
the repudiator. Let US have an
honorable settlement Of the debt
and then pay what we promise.
Athens Post. There can be
no further postponement of the
perplexing question; it must be
disposed of in some way, and
the action of the recalcitrants is
reduced to one simply OF settle
ment or reputation. Whether
they so intend it or not, it will
be so regarded abroad, and viii
have to be so treated at home.
Brownsville Democrat: II
was unreasonable for one hun
dred delegates to attempt to
dictate terms to twelve hundred
yet that was the state of the
case in the NashvilleConvention
Our boiling friends after they
were defeated should have re-
NAMED in the party as the State
credit men did in the convention
of 1873. Boiling never accom-
plished anything but evil.
Pulaski Citizen: Mr.. F. s.
Wilson imagines, no doubt, that
he is at the head Of the repudia-
ton faction; but he might as
well abandon the idea. John II.
Savage is the real leader and ey-
cry body with brains enough to
run a cider mill knows it. Mr..
Wilson, with all his assumption
of dignity, is merely washing
Col. Savage's dirty linen.
Pulaski Herald: "Choose ye
to-day whom We will serve D
Choose whether you will sur
render the name of Demo
crat, abandon the ranks of the
purity that redeemed the State
from the thraldom Of the carpet
Dagger, that has been the bull
wark of liberty and the preserv-
er of American institutions, the
support Of constitutional gov
eminent and the scourge of tyr
ants, or take the name of repudi-
ationist, fall into line with Kear-
ney and his horde Of sons-cuJot-
tes, and exchange your Dem6c-
racy for communism. The lines
are now drawn between the two.
Springfield Record: We stand
by the national and the State
Democratic parties and their
nominees, regardless Of conse-
quences, and in the face of the
fact that some of our very best
friends will oppose us as to om
State policy-6ut-if we sink in
endeavoringto carry forward oul
honest convictions, let us go, fo1
"sink or swim, live or die, sur
vive or perish" we will stand by
what we conceive to be right if
the whole world opposes.
Paris MteUigencer: They
have voluntarily read themselves
out Of the Democratic party, and
have organized 81 destructive
warfare upon its organization
In SO doing the boilers have
aligned themselves with all other
parties and factions in the at
tempt to defeat the Democratic
party in Tennessee.
