Olsly with the issue Of notices for the

a short speech, in which he urged the

q was plainly apparent to all fair
minded people who attended the
spaaking at the Greenlaw opera house
last night, that the Hon. S. F. Wilson
is the peoples candidate. He had
the crowd, as was eyinced by the long
and enthusiastic applause he received
when he assembled the speakers stand,
and the tame, indeed weak reception
given to the Hon. John V. Wright.
Mr.. Wilson improves upon acquaint
ance, and makes friends everywhere
he goes. Indeed it is pOintedly stated
by those who have been with him
recently, that he wins the hearts and
good will Of all with whom he comes
in contact. The statement that he is
losing ground each day, as is venti-
lated by newspapers in opposition to
him, is merely weak invention of the
enemy, and the Hon. S. +. Wilson will
carry the day in triumph when cleo
tion time comes. On the other hand
Judge Wright is not the kind of
a candidate to wear well, He tells a
good joke with neatness, even though
it may not be nice one, and he gets
off a good many that are rot. He says
in his speech he is very brave and is
not afraid Of any man who wears hair.
He talks soundly about boilers, sings
about repudiators and gets off many
things ofan illogical description which
appears to please the end men among
his supporters. The attendance at
the opera house last night was esti
mated at from five to eight hundred
people, and the larger share we're evl-
IDENTIFY for low taxes and the peoples
candidate, S. +. Wilson. So it is
almost everywhere the several candi-
dates have appeared, Judge Wright
seems to be on his muscle and the
Hon. Mr.. Wilson relies upon brains
and sound argument.

JOINT DISCUSSION.
Three Candidates for Governor
Discuss the Issue.

Between five and six hundred peo-
pie were present at the Greenlaw
opera house last night. 1t was a rep
resentative meeting, people of all
classes and.parties being present.
When the Hon. s. +. Wilson made
his appearance upon the stage he was
greeted with deafening applause,
which lasted fully three minutes. 1t
was tie grandest ovation given any
candidate by a Memphis audience for
years.
The high tax candidate was also ap
plauded, but very family as compared
with the applause of his opponent
Judge Wright opened, and in a
speech Of an hour and half-half
an hour over the time agreed upon by
the cOmmittee-pursued much the
same line of argument as that made in
a speech on the bluff some weeks ago.
He did not tell his usual number Of
anecdotes He viewed the boiling
convention as a contemplate affair,
expressing it as his opinion
that there would be small glory
in defeating Wilson and Edwards
He could look any man in the eye that
wore hair and wasn't afraid to look
his opponents in the face. All men
who advocated Wilson's principles
we're demagogues and dishonest. Viii
son says poor people pay all the taxes
when he knew a man owning q thou
sand dollars'Or less was exempt. will
Tennessee ever throw upon her fair
fame the stain of dishonesty ?" were
the words of the old whig governor,
James c. Jones. After arguing that
the debt was the states and
not the railroads be went on to
give a sketch of Mr.. Wilson's political
career, charging that he had ySted
against submission to the people, con-
Cluding by making an appeal to all
good citizens to show these boilers" ="
"disorganizers" and "repudiators"
that the credit of the state must be
preserved.
MR.. WILSON
opened by saying he was not there to
discuss a question Of personal bravery
and as to whether he OF. y udge Wright
were afraidOf any man who wore hair"
as the audience cared nothing about
that except in 50 far as it showed
character. The bSlling convention
was no contemplate AFFAIR, for if the
majority of the delegates had obeyed
their instructions, the question Of the
settlement of the state debt would
not have been attempted to be
provided for by the politicians
who nominated Wright. His plat.
form was framed by number of
eminent railroad lawyers who we're
not fit to frame any set of principles
for the masses. The whole purpose
was to interpose some power between
the people and their liberty. He
would prove thatif he was a dema-
gogue he was the most remarkable
specimen Of that genus homo they
had ever seen. AS to his policy being
a dishonest one, he had to say that if
he took the position Of Wright, that
the state owed the debt and was able
to pay it, it,would have been dishon-
esty to higgle abOuta compromise, He
took the position that the state did
not owe the railroad bonds, and ought
not to pay them, but as she owed for

SIR: 1t seems to have at last dawned on the
minds Of the northern people that the state Of
Tennessee belongs In the ranks Of the repub-
lican party. The results of the late election
in the state arc indicative Of strong republi.

the democratic party we have elected gov

large number Of the more thoughtful domo-

best material. 1t WIS the aid we derived
from reformed democrats that enabled to us to
defeat r. H. Taylor IN the first, j. ID. g. Atkins

we doubled our usual maiorities all over the

thousands of men were anxious for documents
bearing on questions involved IL the campaign
who failed to get them. Let the north not
in the future forget that Tennessee is near
the line, near the door, and needs only 10 be
invited to enter the republican party. This
