Another Crop of Hancock Re.
publicans.

The survivors of a Massachu-
sets regiment that served in the
war with Gen. Hancock, have
unanimously decided to vote for
him. Gen. Hancock himself re-
ceives many letters from war
veterans in his favor, but is I'M
willing to let them so out for
publication.
Mr.. Haire, Chairman of the
Greenback State Committee of
Michigan, comes out squarely
for Hancock. He thinks that
$4,000 Grcenback votes in that
State will principally go to Ham
cock, which will make it easy
for him to carry the State.
Hon. VIM. G.. Brown, former
ly Republican member of Con
gress from West Virginia, has
declared for Hancock.
Out of one hundred names en-
rolled at the formation Of the
Veteran Hancock Club in New
Haven, Conn, twenty-eight were
those of Republicans.
Gen. Barber, of Michigan,
third assistant pOstmastcr-gen-
eral under Gen. Grant, is for
Hancock.
Gen. Bristow, Grants Secre-
tary Of the Treasury, is for Ham
cock.
Of four men Of Warren coun-
ty, Pa, who recently applied for
their voting papers at the court
house, each said that they had
been Republicans, but would
cast the first vote for Hancock.
Alexander Troupe, who edits
the New Haven Union, a former
Greenback organ, has declared
for Hancock and English in a
speech.

set toward Wright, Gen. Camp

the close Wright, l ,308alSf;; Marks,

While the Committee to es-
cert the nominee to the chair
was out, Gen. Campbell made a
congratulatCiy address to the
Convention on the choice it had
made. Col. Byrd succeeded him
in a ringing speech, after which
Judge Wright took the stand,
and, amidst tremendous cheers,
made a telling speech.
The Chairman was empower
ed to appoint a State Executive
Committee, after which the Con
yention adjourned.

If the plan suggested in the
boilers platform is adopted, we
are to have years more of sus-
pense, wrangling and business
stagnation. They want the next
Legislature to present plan,
the people to vote on it at the
ballot-boX, and the next sue
ceeding Legislature, two years
later, to confirm or reject it. If
rejected, then another Legisla-
ture will have to concoct anoth-
er plan, the people vote again,
and another Legislature, still
further in the future, would have
final action. Under this plan,
no living man can tell when this
business destroying subject will
be settled, while the prejudices
of the people are aroused and
famed by ambitious politicians
whose only chance for promotion
is in agition.

The Rollers Convention.

The boilers from the Demo-
cratic State Convention made up
their minds early that they would
not remain with the democratic
party, because it was a state
credit party. Several meetings
were held in which the boilers
laid down their ultimatum, which
they demanded that the majority
of the convention should accept,
and threatened to bolt if not ac-.
copied. Wednesday night be-
fore the assembling of the con-
the boilers headed by
Savage, Snodgrass and Wilson,
met in the Porter block and re-
solved to set up party of their
own. A committee to form a
platform was appointed, and in
deed the bolt was made before
action was taken on the pending
resolutions in the democratic
convention.
The boilers convention, num-
baring about 100, met at $50 a.
m. in the Senate chamber, and
was called to order by Judge j.
j. Williams (our Circuit judge
Of Franklin county, who had
been chosen permanent chair
man. n platform was adopted
which contains all the essential
principles of reputation. They
charge manipulation and fraud
upon the part of railroad corpo-
rations, declaring such combina-
tions to be destructive Of liberty
and prosperity. They then APP
prove the national democratic
platform and all its principles
except the one advocating pres.
ervation of State and National
credit; favor the payment of the
State debt proper, which is some
thing over $2,000,000. They
deny the validity Of bonds ISSUED
for railroads and war interest
oppose making coupons receiva-
! BILE for taxes and favor the dem.
agogue plank Of 1873, by which
questions were submitted to the
people. They favor a liberia
and efficient Public School sys.
tenn, oppose competition between
convict and free labor, favor ia
king the burden Of taxation from
the laboring class and putting il
on railroad capitalists, incomes
and salaries, and legislation a

Submission to the People.

This is not the only issue be-
tween bolters and Democrats.
The former are not willing to
pay even that which they admit
we owe, unless the people vote
for it. The inference is, they
are honester than the people, and
are willing for them to do wrong
if they desire it.
Several years ago Stonebra-
ker, Meyers, Albright, Turley,
Davidson, Feency and others
built a courthouse for Lincoln
county, under a contract with
Commissioners appointed by the
County Court. They did theil
work well. The County Court

West Tennessee.in the Con-
Vention.

The delegates from West Ten
nesscc in the Convention did
their best to compromise the diff
ferences among the delegates,
but nothing would satisfy the
boilers except a denial of her IL
ability, or an equivocal declara-
ton on the subject. Wright
and Collier, Of Memphis, as did
Others, worked hard to get them
to assent to a recognition Of the
legality of the debt, but nothing
would satisfy them except equiv
ocation or denial and that to be
submitted to the people.

Extracts from Hancock's Or
ders.

Arbitrary power has no exis-
tence here.
Nothing can intimidate lie
from dong what | think to be
honest and right.
Armed instruction or forci-
BILE resistance to the law will be
instantly repressed by arms.
The great principles of Amer
lean liberty still are the lawful
Inheritance of this people and
ever should be.
Power may destroy the forms,
but not the principles of justice.
These will live in spite even Of
the sword.
Woe to us whenever it shall
come to pass that the power of
the magistrate-civil or militia
RVS permitted to deal with the
mere opinions or feeling of the
people.
The right of trial by jury, the
habeas corpus, the liberty of the
press, the freedom of speech, the
natural rights of persons and
the rights of property must be
preserved.
The true and proper use of
the military power, besides de-
Tending the National honor "a
gainst foreign nations, is to up
hold the laws and the civil gov
eminent and to secure to every
person residing among us the
enjoyment of life, liberty and
property.

Advice to Boilers.
[MurfreesbOro News. |

Every democrat, no matter to
what faction he may have be-
longed, should read the demo-
crotic platform, adopted at Nash
vile, carefully, and think about
it before he takes the rash adj
vice Of Savage and Wilson and
bolts his party. The only par
ty that can defeat the republic
cans in the State is the true
democratic party, which has
nominated Judge Wright as its
leader.

the fight between State-credit

be confined to the contest for
the Legislators, where it rightly
belongs. We are glad to know

struggle. We know of other
low-taxers in this county who
will support the nominee Of the
Convention in preference to that

Carefully read the platform of

no reputation there. On the
contrary it wants the debt ques-
ton taken from the political
field by the next Legislature,
whose members will be elected

election or defeat. We will a.

ny which the advocates Of Village

Slne of the most serious is that canals
