PHTLADELPHIA, June s4.-Phe
Record Ind to morrow will says
The nomination OF Winfield Scott
Hancock for President, was probably
the clearest solution the difficulties
which beset the choice at Cincinnati.
Probably among all the candidates
named there was not q safer nomi-
nee.
Tho Times (Iud. will say: General
Hancock gives the democracy a bet
ter record than 1t has given itself, and
he is vastly stronger than his party
in the state and nation. His candi-
dacy strips the contest of the last
.vestage of sectionalism, and leaves
the republicans with no attribute out
side of the inheritent merits of their
candidate and thir present record that
can appeal to patriotism.

Secretary Sherman in q speech said:
"And now you are asked to surrender
all YOU have done into the hands Of
Wade Hampton and ihe Eu klux and
the little segment in the north that is
called the Democratic party" Gen.
Hampton wrote Sherman asking him
if ho had used the language attribut~
ed to him connecting him withsthe
ku-klux? Whereupon Sherman re-
piled that the reporter had given his
language. Hampton in a rejoinder de-
nounced the assertion rs willful and
deliberate falsehood.

Is It possible.that Democrats with
fresh memories of Brownlow's rule anG
militia, will throw away their votes
upon Wilson, defeat Judge Wright
and elect Hawkins2 1t is an undls-
puted fact that the race for Governor
is between Wright and Hawkins, now
which of tho tFo win you choose?
DON'T let your prcjudices get the bet
ter Of your judgment and thus give the
State up to the Republicans. If 1t Is
the payment of the State debt that
troubles you then vote for Wright, for
he is for an honest compromise while
Hawkins will bleed vow and force you
to give the pound of flesh and pay the
last cent. We earnestly eutreat other
counties in the State to follow the lead
of Gibson foriit ..is generally conceded
that Wright viii carry the county by
two thousand majority. A bOlter has
poor showing.with ,us-we take very
little stock in men whose services are
not valued by the party. We have
said before and insist upon it, what
car Wilson get for the people that
Wright cannot secure? Let every true
Democrat in tho State voto the
Straight ticket and our word for it you
will nevor have cause to regret 1t.

ran behind the rest of the ticket by
over 1000 votes. His nomination
was clearly mistake, but there is no
mistake about Indiana being a Demo-
cratic state. Illinois and Pennsylva>
MIA are 20 doubtful as to make the
Republicans quake with fear while
the Democracy in both states have
pur forward the best men and are SAN
guiue of victory. Look at the politi-
cal slate as you will and the odds are
largely in favor of a change in the adj
ministrstion. If Democrats stand
their ground and do their duty, our
success is as certain as that the light
of day viii dawn upon the second OF
November.
The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1880-10-21

The Indiana Democrats it is said,
polled from 10000 to 1900 more
votes last week than they did at the
state election In 1876, showing that
the state was lost by the large fraud
ulent vote polled by the Republicans.
At the election next month those
fraudulent votes will DO needed else
where. and Indiana Is reasonably cerN
tain to 60 for Hancock and English.

The bondage of the Israelites IN
Egypt, crashed beneath the iron heel
Of despotic Pharaoh wns not sever
er than the treatment of the South
ern people by the Republican party OF
the North since the war. As this fa'
vored race fourished and multiplied
under the lash Of taskNmasters and
reign of terror so has the impoverlshr
ed South, robbed of her wealth, her
fields laid waste, land all lost save her
unsullied honor, recuperated her lost
fortunes, reGlled her graineries and
made'fertile heriwaste places. Histo-
ny does not present on instance where
the recuperative power Of a people
has asserted itselfin so brief g period,
and with such astonishing results.
Only few years ago we were paupers
now our commerce is healthy, our pop
ulation has increased, the smoke of a
thousand fatories is seen, and the mu-
sic of industry is heard ,sgiving the lie
to those Infamous partisan sheets IN
the North, who claim that Southern
sun is fatal to energy and enterprise.
Like Prometheus chained to. the rock,
with the radical vuitures and carpet
haggers preying upon US, We have
maintained the faith, obeyed the laws
and chung to the constitution. The
situation is succintly put by CORES
pondent of the Nation, at Lewisburg,
Va I'VE, of the South, have fully
accepted the results of the late war,
we are more than satisfied with the
abolition Of slavery; we feel an inter
est in maintaining the national credit;
we are not'afccted by the 'greennack
crazs;' We desire pure civil service;
have no war claims 10 present, and
take the liveliest interest IN. national
prosperity. We are even prepared t.
acquiesce in negro suffrage; but 50 long
a. the bloody shirt continues to wave
and abuse and utilization of tbs
South form the chief stock in trade Of
the Republican orator, selfresPecs for
bids Us TO be Republican"
1t lisa little remarkable that tht
South can be implicitly trusted il
everything save in politics. Jobbinl
merchants in the great trade ccrta-
Of the North send out hundreds c
travelling men to s3lici; our trade art
in many instances eel goods on long
credit and yeE their patrons ar
thoroughly irresponsible when the ba!

Of goods marked to Southern mer

ducuve, where We can raise everything

An ExPr.OsIvE CnsTERS.
The difficulty Experienced by Mr.Caleb
Grow I'm Keeping the Water In
Its Proper Combines.

n fact that may seem incredulOus to
many has just been revealed to us, and
as it is worthy a place among the many
novelty happenings, we will give it to
the readers of the HERALD. To an
nounce that such thing as AN explo-
sive cistern is a reality may beregarded
by some as a prevarication, but which
fact is nevertheless true, and with the
exception Of the present one, we expect
there il not another case of an explosive
cistern Oh record, and il our readers
will follow us to an explanation we will
remove all doubts of its existence.
About four months ago Mr.. Crow dug a
cistern, since which time he has wit
messed three explosions, the last one oc-
curing last week. When an explosion
occurs the water is thrown clear out of
the cistern, and with great force, and to
allay any belief that the explosion is
caused by an intermingling of any
mineral stream, We will state that the
cistern remains dry until water is again
run into it by the water spouts for that
purpose. The reason assigned by those
who have given the strange happening
any thought, IL, that the cistern is
located near bed of some kind of
mineral, and the escaping gas from this
bed finds its outlet in the cistern, which
is of sufficient power to throw the water
clear out.
