Mr.. EDITOR: Judge Alvin Haw.
kiDs, the republican candidate for
governor of the slate, made telling
and effective speech in this place on
Thursday, the 3lst inst. The audi
ence was not as large as we would
like to have seen, yet there was
very good turn out. Many democrats
came out to hear him; some of whom
spoke in quite favorable terms OF his
effort, especially that portion in refer-
encs to the states Indebtedness. He
was both tff.c i've and forcible in bis
contrast OF the course and policy Of
the republican. during the l9 years
they have II ad control of the general
government, with the IL years that
| the democrats have run the state
government of Tennessee, showing
very satisfactorily that under the
policy of the republican party the
country was going on upward and on
| ward in prosperity; while Tennessee,
under the control of the democrats, has
got 30 low down in the vortex OF ruin
that from Johnson to Shelby and from
Benton to Crockett counties, the dem
ocrats were crying out that the state
was not able, was too poor to pay her
honest debts, Aud in contrasting the
claims of the republican and demo-
cratic candidates for president. he
showed that Gen. James A. Garfield
was better qualified and suited for
president, on account Of his clvl
capacity and high order of statesman
ship, than Gen. Hancock, whose nom
ination, as we'll as his claim upor
popular suffrage, rested entirely on biz
military career as union soldier. AS tt
the de claration of the democrats, tha
unless the people, in the approaching
election for. president, should hur
from power, the republicans, and place
, the government in their hands, ths
country would be ruined. he re
! minced the audience that democrat
were not true prophets, for such ha
! been their cry at every presidential
! election since they lost control OF tn
: government. Nevertheless the coun
V try was still out of ruin, and on tn
high road to prosperity.
I In his remarks upon the great ques
