lowing address:
To the democratic and conservative
Voters Of The country;
The election ofpresident and vice
president is now before you. State
and local dissentions areeleminated
from the issues of the day. The
magnitude of 4 victory or defeat can
only be estimated by the forces and
means employed in securing it. BY
fraud and corruption the peoDle Of
the country We're defeated in their
purpose in 1876 and the rightfully
elected president was kept from Of
flee. With the combined capital of
the republican party aided by repeat
ed assessments upon an army of Of
ce-holders; with the power of the
Federal Government represented by
United States Marshals at the polls;
standardization fraud and q resort
to every corruptappliancek known to
republican methods, concentrated
in two states, our adversaries
have succeeded in procuring the prob
able return of their local candidates.
Can it be possible that in every state
throughout this broad land the same |
methods can be brought to bear that |
were used by the republican mama
gers in Indiana and Ohio? Can the |
great states of New York, New Jer- |
sy, Connecticut, California, Colorado /
and New Hampshire be bought, In |
and defrauded :? Even
the vote Of Indiana, which /
we believe will be redeemed in Mo-
with New York and New
Jersy and the states that are conced-
I'd to us, including Maine, the elec-
ion of our candidates are assrued.
The republican party have put in
for president and vice.
two men who, by the adj
of their own party and press,
ire unworthy of your confidence and
your suffrages. 1t is impossible that
fifty millions of intelligent and pat
lotto people will consent to place
themselves upon the humiliating
evel thus prepared for them by the
epublican managers. tiH
Eellow-citiZens, the first days re-
'ulse at Gettysburg ended ON the
bird with Hancock in the front, in
glorious victory, and that victory
ecured us our Union. The ques-
ion is not now the preservation of {
he Union, but of constitutional gov !
Hancock is now, as then,
4 the front. The repulse is now as ]

mohday's Speaking.

The Hon. w. M. Daniel and Col.
j.. =. Rogers, representatives of the
state credit and low tax parties, re-
spectively, and candidates for the
senate, addressed the people Of our
county, on the public square last
Monday. The debate was opened
by Mr.. Daniel. His words of wis
dom and truth fell upon the ears Of
his hearers like ''apple Of gold in
pictures of silver" During this en-
tire campaign a RobretsOna county
audience has not had the pleasure Of
listening to a more convincing set Of
arguments than those presented by
Mr.. Daniel. His tone Of delivery,
his earnestness and zeal, Is more in
keeping with the iliustri0us Zollicof-
fer, than any man we ever met or
heard. He captivated everybody.
We were truly gratified to notice
the eagerneSs with which his speech
was listened to, even by the Wilson
party. Mr.. Daniel did himself hon
or, and right here we wish to say
that his course will do more toward
healing the differences in the party,
than we could reasonably have ex-
pected. He is a giant In the cause,
and with all that he indulges no
abuse towards any man or party.
Mr., Rogers did not come up to
the expectations of his party. He is
to our mind, an object of pity.
Candidly, we feel sorry for him.
He is not the kind Of material that
the yeomanry of Robertson county
are used to-and his. own party, or
at least some of them, have made
remarks incur hearing which we
will not repeat, as journalist, but
it can be obtained If we are call
ed upon privately. IT Is enough for
US to say, that Ire cannot hope 20 get
many votes in Robertson county.
1t were better for him had he never
visited this place.

Democratic Executive Com
mtftee


HEADQUARTERS N DEMOCRATIC
STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,
Nashville, Oct. 13, 1SS0.-TO the
Democrats of Tennessee: The re-
verse of yesterday should cause you
10 pause ard consider your own con-
ditiOn and welfare. Flushed with
their victories and taking advant-
age of divided democracy, the
republicans of Tennessee confident
ly proclaim the capture Of our state
government, by the election of
Judge Hawkins and a republican
legislature. Democrats of Tennes-
see, certainly, have not forgotten
the baneful effects of the Brownlow
dynasty, with its attendant evils,
of profiigaey, corruption, disfran-
chisement and state militia, and the
cordial support given that dynasty
by republican national adminis-
tration backed by federal bayonets
at the polls, and the reconstruction
acts, and the maintenance of car
pet-bog rule throughout the south.
While the national democracy will
continue the noble fight begun, with
an enthusiasm and heroism unpar-
allied in the political history of the
country, can it be that Tennessee
democrats will longer hesitate in
the united and cordial support of
their party and its nominees? f? Will
not our brothers who left US on the
18th OF August last forget their i'm
aginary grievancies, bury their pref
udices, return to the fold and unite
with all good democrats in electing
a ticket that will insure US an hon
est and economical administration
Of our state affairs, the settlement
of our differences of state policies,
the maintenance of home rule, an
honest judiciary, a free ballot and
low taxes! We areeonfronted with
an enthusiastic and well organized
enemy. No longer can it be doubt
ed that either Judge Wright or
Judge Hawkins will be elected gov
ernor of Tennessee on the I'd day Of
November next. Then the Execu-
tive Committee OF the state, ON be-
half Of the democracy, urge the OIL
i've branch aHd hand of reconcilli-
alton be offered and accepted that
all democrats, from this day until
the close of the polls in November,
exert themselves ia fighting QUE
enemy. Inspiration. will |
be given our brethren elsewhere |
to fight great battle, and success |
will surely crown our efforts In both |
state and national affairs - l..l

Our republican contemporaries
who have been counting their cleo
toral chickens in Indiana at least
three weeks before they can be
hatched, are invited to read the adj
dress of the executive committee of
the democrats of that state which
appears in to-day's World. They
may also profitably recall an Incl
dent of our early naval history
which has been celebrated by Mr..
Walt Whitman. Paul Jones, after
the Bon Homme Richard had been
nearly shot TO pieces by the Scraps
and her cOnsort, was hailed by the
British commander through the
smoke to learn if she had struck.
Paul Jones made answer, "We have
not begun our part of the fighting!'
This seems to be the temper of the
democrats of Indiana, and the re-
publican managers, who desire to
spare the effusiOn not of blood but
of greenbacks which may be needed
in other states, may take notice
thereof. 1t will be seen that the
address serves incidentally but en-
phatically to repel the charge that
the leaders of the democracy in In
diana are not acting cordially to-
gether.. AS the signers Of The call
compromise all the leaders of the
party, we have probably heard the
last of that story. Much has also
been said, mostly i'm the republican
newspapers. OF the unpopularity Of
Mr.. English in his own state, by
way Of explaining the defeat, not OF
Mr.. English but of Mr.. Landers.
We are not aware that Mr.. English
has yet been defeated in Indiana,
nor, what Is much more to the pur-
pose, does Mr.. English himself APP
pear to have heard of such an occur
renee. Upon the whole it will
probably be manifest to Mr.. Sher-
man some time before the begin
ming Of November that if he knows
of any source of supply yet untried
which is more promising than an
appeal to the members of the Man
haitian club i'm this city, it behooyes
him straightway to tap the same.--

ADDRESS OF THE INDIANA STATE

10 Me denaocrats of indiana !.

4 ADDRESS OF THE INDIANA STATE
COMMITTEE.
TO the democrats of Indiana:
! The result of the election of last
Tuesday is a deep disappointment
to us, although the extent Of the
success which the republican party
| has achieved in this state is as much
a surprise to many republicans as it
is to democrats, and proves that a
majority of the republican party
were SO ignorant of the means which
their corrupt leaders were employ
ing to achieve it as we were. The
temporary loss of our state is a
calamity that time will enable us to
retrieve, but the injury which our
free institutions will sustain from
the frauds and corruptions practised
by the republican leaders to secure
their triumph is incalculable. The
causes which enabled the republican
party to succeed in this state are
plainly:
First-The partial success of the
scheme to Africanize our state for
political purposes.
Second-The corrupt useof money
in the purchase of votes.
Third-rhe importation and use
of repeaters protected by the federal
deputy marshals.
Fourth-The aid derived by them
from the use of federal machinery
of elections under the pretense of
supervising the election OF members
of congress.
To fho ,~roe;,5 on+;ol oloo+;o,, 40 /
will not have to encounter those |
forces to the same extent as in our |
state election. Their corruption
fund will have to be divided among
many states. Their repeaters will
remain at home, and such of them
as deputy marshals discharged on
straw bail will not be likely to
make their appearance in our state
again. We shall have no deputy
marshals and no federal machinery
welded against us. We are thor
oughly united in our cOunsels, and +
whatever our adversaries may say
to the contrary is untrue. We
call upon you not to relax
any of your efforts, but to put new
life and energy into the contest for
your counties and townships, and
take all measures in your power to
bring our full strength to the polls
in November. The same vote polled
in October, if pOlled again in No
vember, will, in our opinion, secure
Us the state. The average majority
against us in the election of last
will not exceed 1900, and,
perhaps, 1t will fall below that fig
are. This majority can and will in
our opinion be overcome in the
presidential election. A change of
three votes in each precinct will be
more than sufficient for that pur-
pose. Remember you have leader
who never sounds a retreat, and he
an army that never sur
renders.
