men. The Republicans in the pres
ent Legislature, with only a..few ex-
ceptions, supported the 1908 act
supported it because they believed It
was right, and because they believed
that under that law this question
might be settled honorably and salts
factorily. There has not been a Re
publican State convention held in
ten years that did not pass resolu-
tions in favor of an honest settle
ment Of the debt.
This is the record of the Repub
lican party of Tennessee on this i'm
portant question. It is a consistent
record. 1t is an honorable record.
We do not believe there are a thou~
sand true Republicans in the State,
who would have their party go back
on this record. To do so, would be
political suicide Any sort of COM
promise with the enemies of State
credit, would be suicidal. Whatever
NAV have been done elsewhere, the
the Republicans Of Tennessee viii
not become the allies of Il party Of
readjusters. The settlement of the
debt has been made. made under a
Republican administration, with q
large minority Of Republicans in the
Legislature. aided By a few State
credit Democrats, and whenever the
Republican party of Tennessee goes
back upon that settlement, unless it is
first pronounced unconstitutional by a
court Of competent authority, the
foundation will be laid for divisions,
internal dissensions and discord
such as now rend the Democratic
party in the State. To do such a
thing, would be base desertion of
principle by which the party would
forfeit the respect Of the world, the
confidence of the people and every
claim it has upon public confidence.
We entertain no fears of such q
result The Republicans have too
much sense to thus wantonly throw
away all that they have gained. Our
own self-preservatior demands that
the party shall stand firm. Our
self-respect impels us to this course.
Our sense of right and wrong, our
State pride, our patriotism and our
duty to posterity, all appeal to US
earnestly to stand by our colors.
The Republican party Of Tennessee
is a State credit party, and under
this banner, if it would win, it must
fight It's future battles. This is the
only road to success.

THE ONLY ROAD TO SUCCESS.

For the Republican party in Ten
nessee there is only one road to sue
cess, and whenever the party devil
ates from that straight line it loses
whatever claims it has to the conf.
dence of the people. Ever since the
honest settlement of the State debt
has been a question, the Republican
party has been on the side of homes
ty. No measure has ever been before
the Legislature looking towards a
satisfactory settlement thathas not re-
ceived thesupport of majority of the
Republicans of that body. Theysup-
ported the proposition to settle at
60-6, and even when the 50-4 meas
IRE was pending the Republicans
manifested willingness to accept it,
provided the creditors of the State
were satisfied with it.
When Gov. Hawkins came into
office, the first Republican Governor
we have had for years, he sjgnalized
his administration by pronouncing
himself at the outset, in unequivocal
terms, in favor of sustaining the faith
and credit of Tennessee. Every act
OF bis administration bearing upon
this question is consistent with the
platform upon which he was nomi
mated, consistent with his utterances
during the canvass, and in full ac.
cord with the views of State credi

THE VIRGINIA DUELING FARCE.

The State Of Virginia has al ants
dueling law which imposes certain
disabilities on any person who en-
cages in lighting duel. A bill has
been introduced in the Legislature
of that State, relieving a number of
prominent citizens, whose names
appeared in our dispatches yesterday
morning, from the disabilities in>
Cured by a violation of the laws.
Among the names are a United
States Senator elect, a member of
Congress, United States District
Attorney, and two or three prominent
journalists. Nearly all of these men,
we are told, incurred their disabil-
tiles during the recent political
campaign in that State. a two
thirds vote of the Legislature is
necessary to their relief, but We. are
assured that it will be forth coming,
without doubt. We DO not know
what the penalties for violating the
law in Virginia are, but we take it
that they render violators ineligible
to Offices of honor and trust.
The law is a wholesome one and
ought to be rigidly enforced Duel
ing is crime, q heinous crime
against society and should be pun
ished by the infection of heavy penal
ties. This action of the Virginia
Legislature turns the whole matter
into ridiculous farce, and if these
prominent gentlemen who have vic.
lated the law are to get off so
easily, without punishment, the law
may as well be repealed at once
But it ought not be repealed, it
should be enforced. and if any
modification is made, let the penal
ties be made more severe. Let an
example be made now of these
prominent gentlemen who have yio-
lated the law. Give them to under.
stand that laws are made to restrain
prominent men from the commission
OF crime as we'll as the obscure. To
relieve the disabilities of these men
under the circumstances, is child's
play, and will bring the Legislature
into ridicule and contempt. Ii these
duelists are ineligible to offices
which they desire to fill, it is THEN
own fault, and men can be found
who are eligible. We suppose,
from the intelligence we have receiv
ed, that it is too much to hope for
but for the sake of Virginia, and il
the interest of law and order every
where, we would be glad to see thai
State make an example of the 81
prominent gentlemen.
