THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

We need a Chief Executive Of
ficer in Tennessee who has the in-
tellectTal and moral force to lead
the State ont Of its present unrest
and uncertainty on the debt
question The people want a Gov
ernor who has the manliness to
give deaf ear to the clamors
Of the demago5ue a man who
has that just equipoise Of mind
and character which will enable
him to weigh the debtor and
creitor side of the Stat debt and
then induce the people to adopt
some plan Of settlement satisfac-
tory to both sides.
We don't want Il man for Gov
ernor who is content to drift hith-
er and thither with every tickle
change in public sentiment, with
no convictions Of his own, and
powerless to speak " Peace, be
still, to the troubled waters.
We are not impressed with the
fitness Of Gov. Markssfor Il renom-
ination. With neither side Of the
debt question Is he an idol. Both
factions feel and believe that his
administration has utterly failed
to,contribute anything worthful
to the solution of the vexed ques-
ton. He is not TO blamed for his
shortcomings as he, no doubt,
did the best he was able to do.
But unskilfulness won't cure the
patient. The disease affecting
the public mind needs prompt
treatment at the hands Of a man
who can grasp the diagnosis of the
case and administer remedies
that will insure relief
Surely there are men in the
State who have the confidence OF
The high and low taXwings, whose
craftsmanship is broad, liberal and
above reproach and who have
the force to stand as an umpire
between the contending wings OF
the Democracy and evoke har
mony out discord.
Give the people Il leader who
| has the force to lift himself above
the bitterness Of factions ant
whose sagacity and greatness o
soul will command general at
tention and respect.
The debt question is not be
yond satisfactory settlement. lie
: the debtor and creditor meet il
disagreement and agree to come
to some equitable solution Of the
difficulty. y body of true, patri
otto men could reach a just anC
definite determination of tn,
difficulty, but the end Will neve
be accomplished through tht
manipulations Of small men.
GIVE the State a real Governo
and Il Legislature, true and pure
4 and all will be well.

cecding Mr. Murphy, who was remov-
cd in consequence Of the exposure
made OF the moiety system, the bonded
warehouse abuses, and other arrange

moved from the New York Collector
ship by President Hayes, soon after
his accession to the Presidency and 4
prominent New York merchant, Mr.

fight for his friend and protege, Alr.
Arthur, however, and ut that time

From the opinions OF the press,
III different sections Of the coun-
try, which, thus far, have been
received, a pretty fair idea can
be formed Of the impression
which General Garlield's nominal
ton has been made upon the
people. The prevailing opinion
seems to be that the nomination
is a strong one, and that General
Garfield viii poll the full Repub-
lican vote Whether he will poll
anything more than that vote
will depend largely upon the ac-
ton of the Cincinnati convention.
10 insure a Republican victory,
something more than the vote
that is classed as strictly Repub-
lean is needed. Ii the doubtful
States are TO be carried, what is
known as the floating vote must
be obtained. 1t is doubtful if
Gen. Garfield can obtain that
vote. lie certainly cannot if a
ponular candidate with an unim-
neochable record is nominated
inv the Democrats.

New Castle Notes.


June II, 1880.
Mr.. EDITOR: has occur
red in this community since our last
writing.
The summer season Is again upon
us and all nature is clothed in her coat
of richest colors. The towering forest
presents a grand scene rs we gaze out
upon her beauties. and in almost ev-
ry direction the lovely flowers are I'M
folding themselves to our view.
Harvest time Is here and the sound
of the reapers may be heard.
New Castle has fourishing Sunday
School.
Our merchants report business fair.
We have no young NJ. D. (mule
driver to report the health of the com
munity, but believe it to be good.
Miss Lula Shivers has returned from
Nashville where she has been attending
the Centennial.
Miss Laura Howard of Marianne,
Ark, is visiting our town. Miss Lau-
re- is quite belle and will doubtless
captivate several Of our young men
while here We learn that Miss How
ard will spend the Summer at New
Castle. We wish her pleasant visit
and a happy return to her home.
Mr.. Z. B. Stewart our Census man,
failed to observe that our cistern pump
is in bad condition: we mention this
that the government may Icok into
affairs more closely.
On last Saturday morning quite a
number of young people gathered at
the croquet ground TO engage in a
game of croquet, which resulted in
some body getting badly beaten, The
Misses r pscs, of Middle Tennessee, Wis
tied New Castle few days ago, come
again ladies and lets beat the boys
playing croquet.
In CHANGING over the last number of
the BULLETIN we notice a missive from
AIiddlcburg, the production of one
Fraud, who seems to have a kind of
pick at "Obseryer" in regard to the
hen and chickens, as Fraud" desires
we will drop hem in his hands as he is
most likely 10 detect fraud. He rec
ommends a few dcses Of physic for
observer" Doubtless, it will be
necessary for him to take a shock from
the batteries Of New Castle, before he
is restored to a proper state of mind,
and if he wishes TO practice his profess
sion, we fear he Will yet be forced to
seek an asylum beyond the sea where
impostors are allowed full sway, for
observers need no assistance in detec-
ting such frauds as the one who has
erected his shell ut Middleburg.
Since we last wrote, it has been our
privilege to visit NEiddleburg, where
we met with the young NJ. D., who
proposes to restore youth and impart
vigor by the use Of physic, we suggest
that he take full dose each day, lest
old age should creep upon him una
wares and his nervous system gives
down, ere one consents to change
from Il beautiful Rose to a Rose-shell.

The way to a Republican defeat
is easy. In all the doubtful Stat
es the party is already weak,
through contests and jealousies.
In New York it had last Novem
Der a ma ority of just 200 votes
for Lieutenant Governor against
single opposing candidate in a
total poll Of over a million. In
Ohio it 'polled only fifty and a
quarter per cent, Of the vote, and
change of only one-eighth OF
one per cent. Of the vote would
defeat it. In Illinois and New
Jersey it has only plurality. III
Michigan change Of one-half OF
one per cent. of the vote will
bring it defeat.

Chicago Iribunc.-We cannot but
express the opinion that the nominal
ton of Mr.. Arthur, Of New York,
was IL mistake. it is neither in har-
mony with the platform nor the head
of the ticket. There is the consolation,
however, that the office is one Of total
insigniticancc except in remote con-
tingency. The excuse for such Il nom
ination can only be found in the fact
that Ill the reaction following the gIOri-
Gus Tolerance from IMPENDING evil OF
the most calamitOus character, the
hearts Of the delegates, oYerhowing
with gratitude, yielded 50 far as to
offer kindness to the defeated and pros
trutcd conspirators. The nomination
Of Nice-President followed 50 soon after
that of Gen. Garfield that there was
little time for reflection, and too many
of the delegates, in there sympathy
for the vanquished and in there hurry
to 90 home, did what they would not
/ have done had they taken Il night to
think over the mater.
The New York legislature passed
! the bill authorizing the state to act as
trustee for its citizens who hold the
disowncd OF repudiated obligations Of
other states anl to bring suits in its
own name on these obligations. 1t ie
estimated that the amount Of unpaid
Indebtedness of other states held by
citizens of New York is $500, 900, 600
which includes bonds and overdue in
terest. The individual holders of thi,
indebtedness cannot sue the indebted
states, but the state Of New York can
and the bill provides that the bond.
may be transferred to that state fol
/ this purpose.

election of honest men. Yet hero they propose
to let the matter rest until after election, and
this in the face Of the fact that the auditor.
who has been the recipient of very grave
charges BY them, is again candidate for the
office. If the auditor has been guilty of many
other things, as binted, the people should be
notified and the man defeated. To hold the
facts from the people until after he Ia re elect
ed, is a new way of preventing corruption, and
. way not likely to receive the appreciation of
the people.
The committee have thus taken long step
toward the triumph of Mcdonald and the Re-
publioans in November, and step that cannot
be retraced. They have greatly belittled . sub
ject that at first seemed to demand the prompt
attention of 10. 600 voters. 1t Is not four cases
of unlawful conduct that the people care
about, but it is the general conduct of McDon-
aid as auditor of the county.
Still to-day's report does not help Mcdonald
80 much as it hurts the committee.
Greater things were expected in
view of what has been said
heretofore, Enough has been shown of Mr..
Mcdonald to arouse the suspicion of the peo-
pie against him, bat not to seriously endsn.
ger his chances Of success. A man who goes
beyond the law four times ia liable to do 81
many times, and this il what required investi-
