GEN. BATE is a fayOrite son Of
Tennessee and is honored in the
national councils of the Democratic
party. He isa brave, courageous, un.
selfish man. In every relation and
position in life he has performed his
duty faithfully. Although springinV
from a fine old pioneer stock, his
youth was one of hard struggles and
many discouragements. He is literally
selt'made man who started
on the road to success and honorable
distinction at the bottom of the
ladder. His ambition has been
to be useful and to serve others
rather than push his own for.
tunes. In war and in peace he
has always been true to his country
and his friends. At one time when
he was within single vote of elettion
10 the United States Senate he with
drew his name rather than prolong a
struggle within the Democratic party
which threatened to make serious
division, and afterward in the chivalry
and generous impulse Of his nature he
was one of the crowd that called upon
and congratulated his successful com.
petitor. This is but an incident from
specimen page Of his life. In tie
the goodness Of his heart he could not
do less, although others failed to
take defeat SO calmy and hero
ically. He is beloved by Tennesseeans
not less for his magnetic social quail
ties than his devotion to principle and
unswerying fidelity to the best inter
ests of the State throughout his public
life. In the gubernatorial chair,
which he is sure to occupy if he lives,
he will recall to memory the days
when White and Grundy, Bell
and TrOusdale, Campbell, Brown,
and other men distinguished
but not superior to him, occupied the
same position before the civil war.
lie will be an honor to the State, at
home and abroad, and his election
will prove that the people are not
forgetful or ungrateful to their faith.
