Wilson and Wright.

Knoxville Chronicle (republican)
While the spinal column of the
Wright democracy has been revolving
into a limp gristle more and more
each day, the Wilson backbone
is assuming an ossifed, petrifed rigid
ity truly remarkable to contemplate.
They take the address Of the Wright
committee to be a confession of
weakness, just as we did, and many
state credit democrats did, and are
entering into the fight with still more
determination. The impression ha
gone abroad, through what agency we
know not, that Wright is to be with :
drawn aud his vote thrown to Wilson.
Carter, the democratic candidate in
the senatorial district, just west Of
there, WAS openly proclaiming this at
London, day or two ago. The Ohio
and Indiana elections would have ben
Gifted the regulars if the committee
had not thrown up the white flag 50
