The Headings OF the Treaty.

LONDON, May 3.-There is little room
to doubt that Parnel's liberation is the
direct result of negotiations between
himself and the Government, and that
he got the best of the treaty. The
statement was made in several papers
that some gentleman had visited Kill
mainham and interviewed Parnell twice
in one day. A question was asked in
the House about the matter. 1t now APP
pears that Capt. OShea was the person
who made the visit, and did so as am
bassador of the Government. The result
is seen in the terms of peace, The truce,
includes complete change of policy,
namely, Lord Cowper shunted for the
" strong man of experience" Foster be-
comes what Seaton called him on one
occasion in the lobby, ga spiked can
non;" the release of all suspects not
charged with actual crime; the lapsing of
the Coercion Act in September; the taking
of Irish members into consultation i'll
the government of Ireland; and mea-
sure to improve the Land Act. Glad
stones statement that measure might
be proposed to deal with secret societies
is looked upon as kind of saving clause
for the sake of appearances.
Great Rejoicing in IRELAND.
DUBLIN, May 3.-There was great ex-
citement on the news being received of
the resignation Of Forster Crowds gath
cred ON the streets and cheered for Par

aded the city playing national airs. The
ews to the Land Leaguers was quickly
transmitted through the country, and
soon fires We're blazing on Wicklow HILL
There was spontaneous rejoicing every,

THE coURIER-J0UREAL AND HON. Jas, E
BAILEY.

The Nashville Banner in speak
ing of the late wanton and uncalled
for attacks by the CD on OK. Senator
james E. Bailey, says:
AS to the matters between ex-
Senator Bailey and Mr.. Watterson,
which lead to the turning of the
Courier-JOurnal from its position
upon great public question to
personal attack upon a private citi-
zen, we have nothing TO do. Mr..
Bailey is fully able to take care of
himself if he shall deem it necessa-
ry. The charge that he would lend
himself to Il scheme for Republican
iZing Tennessee for mis- own aggran-
dizlnent is gross enough TO be its
own refutation. Mr.. Bailey has
been too long citizen OF Tennes-
see, served the Stale too well and
too faithfully, sacrificed himselfand
his ambitions too often to what he
deemed the call of duty, for any
Tennessean, political friend or foe,
to believe he is actuated by aught
save the honor and well-being of
his State.
The cause of the character, the
honor AMI interests of Tennessee
cannot be dwarfed to a personal is
Tue or made anything but that
which il is-the battle OF conSerVa-
tive rights and of progressive Ten
nessee against radicalism and fossil
ism. The Courier Journal will do
well To watch its own fences. De-
Tending foSSiliSm in Kentucky it is
not inconsistent in defense of fossil
ism in Tennessee, but it is incon-
sistent with all its manly, independ-
ent, liberal utterances, its denunci-
alton OF MahOneism, and repudia-
ton. Mr.. Watterson roars manftslly
in the index concerning right and
Justice; but he somehow manages
to be dropped like one OF the minor
characters in a play before the
grand denouemeBt where heroism
is needed and made manifest.
Well said! The Courier-J Journal
has been making itself ridiculous
by meddling in Tennessee's local
affairs, and ever since The late Con-
vention has been floundering around
trying to find SOME justifiable
ground on which it could honestly
stand and support the REIMBURSEMENT
of our State debt. A few weeks
ago its editor was writing strong
State-credit articles, but now a
sudden change has come over the
spirit of his dreams and we find
him stultifying himself by the sup
port of Gen. Bate and his readjuster
platform. He may find some con-
ISOLATION for this desertiOn of princi-
pie in the great personal friend
ship he bears for General Bate, but
when he steps aside to vent, in the
columns of his paper, the personal
dislike and spleen he harbOrs
against ex-senator Bailey, he not
only does not aid the cause of Gen.
Bate but brings upon himself the
merited diSdain and contempt of
all who know the petty cause that
prompts the attacks. There are no
terrOrs in the slurs of the CD. for
Col. Bailey, for he is armed SO
strong in honesty in his gallant fight
to maintain the honor and credit of
Tennessee thatsuch animadversiOns
pass him by as the idle winds that
he regards not.

he DEMOCRATIC PRESS.

1t cannot fail 10 be interesting
to our readers to note the uttPrances
of the Democratic press of the State
in regard to the action of the late
convention. With view to satisfy
this natural curiosity, we have this
week clipped the sentiments of a
number of our exchanges and give
them on the first page of our paper.
We would ask your careful perusal
of those extracts, believing that the
many clear and uncontrOvertible
reasons why this Readjuster move
ment should not be encouraged,
which are so fOrcibly presented can
not fail to commend themselves TO
your sound sense and Judgment.
These are only a very few of the
many similar expressions which we
might have expected from our eX-
changes from all parts of the State,
but we believe these are enough to
show the drift of at least an intclli-
gent public opinion, and will also
serve in some degree to refute the
mfOunded assertion that almost the
entire Democratic press of the State,
outside of the Nashville and ClarIs-
vile papers, is supporting the nomi-
nee and platform of the Rcadlustcr
Democrats. So far as our exchanges
go, we believe the press is about
equally divided.

sENAroR HOWELL E. JACKSON.

At an informal meeting of dele
gates, held at the Masonic Theatre.
during the recent Convention, Sen.
ator Jackson was called upon TO
make speech and gave utterance
to the following noble and patriotic
sentiments which. ought to find a
responsive echo in the heart OF
every true Tennessean:
There is a right and wrong i'm
this matter, and rs long as God
gives me mind and will, | am for
the right would not rob Tennes;-
see OF her good name, Or cause BUSH
ness men to feel they were suspect
ed of MT possessing that honest
manhood which comes from keep
ing an unbroken word.
And | say to the people, we must
respect ourselves, the land we live
in. and the public sentiment of the
world. We cannot ignore these
things and prosper | believe in
the payment of our debts and the
preservation of the good name OF
the State, yet | never intend TO lift
the party above the honor of the
State of Tennessee.
Whenever the Democratic party
STILES the free discussion and eX-
preston of opinion, then Democracy
is gone. / do not intend to thrust
any opinion upon you, but | do in
tend TO plead for the honor of Ten
neSSee. There IS where / stand up
on this question, and l urge you in
the spirit Of harmony to deal with
it. 1t can be dealt with in way
50 as not to offend, not TO cramp,
not to drive anybody from your
camp, and we ought to consider it
in that light, and deal with it accor-

THE Memphis Appeal boldly and
unblushingly asserts that of the
eighty Democratic papers in the
State, seventy are in favor of the
Readjuster movement. This is not
true, nor anywhere near the truth
and the Appeal knows it, and we
defy it to make good its assertion.
There are not fifty Democratic pa
pers in the State that support the
Readjuster movement, and mum
Der of these only support Bate
and scratch the platform" OF the
eight daily papers in the State, three
are outright for sustaining the COG,
two are on the fence and three for
the Readiustment, and about the
same ratio may be found among the
country press.

We will not deal in examinations
or reciminations. We have ma
harsh or unkind word for any man
who honestly differs with us. We
recognize the inalienable right OF
every man to speak and vote his
own convictions, but the CHRONI-
Gle shall endeavOr by honest, firm,
quiet, conservative views, candidly
amt openly expressed, to persuade
Democrats to stand firm by the
time hOnOred and fundamental
principles of the party. We hope
to convince them that they owe it
to themselves, as well as 10 the
party, to use all fair means to up
hold the fair fame and reputation of
Tennessee by sustaining the recent
honorable and equitable adjustment
of her State debt. We are true
Democrats and do not propose to
be read out of the party by those
who choose TO apply to Us the silly
epithets of "boIter" and irene
grade" We know we are Demo
Gratis and shall labor earnestly for
the best interests of Democracy.
We cannot afford to throw our con-
victions and principles to the winds
for mere unstable, temporary sue
cess and party expediency. Dem
ocracy is broader and has higher
aims and ends in view than getting
temporary possession of the State
offices. We believe that on its per-
manent accession to national power
depend our civil rights and liber-
ties, and this we can never attain
so long rs its tendency is towards
Reputation of just and honest obli-
cations. We had rather see the
Democratic party suffer defeat, bat
Ting heroically for honor and right
than victorious upon any other
platform. We do not believe the
fOrciblp REIMBURSEMENT of our debt,
allowing no voice to our creditors,
is justified in law, in equity or in
morals and the CHRONICLE cannot
lend its aid to such an unwise
measure.

TIE calm, sober, intelligent
thought of the Democracy of Ten
nessee has been sadly disturbed by
the wild advice of some of its
would-be leaders and ill-advised
newspapers, but those who are
manly enough to stand bravely up
i'm this trying hour for the right, for
their States honor and credit, will
be proud of their record before ma
ny Yeas have passed. The late
settlement of the debt is just, hon
orahle and equitable compromise,
offered voluntarily and without
coercion by our creditors, and, rs
the best terms obtainable, must be
sustained. Our cause may look
dark now, but rest assured, state
credit Democrats, that right is
might and must prevail.

LETTER ERom Hopslxsuile ~


EDITOR CHRONICLE The peo-
pie of Kentucky seem to think that
Hopkinsyille is the place to hold
their conventions. The first to come
was the "Baptist State General AS
sociation," with its three or four
hundred delegates, which convened
here on the 18th of May last. This
Was followed by the Sunday School
Convention of the Christian church,
on June 10th, and the climax was
reached in the assemblage OF the
delegates of the first Superior court
district, last Friday, and we still
have State Teachers Association
in prospect for August. g.
Yes, our people have listened to
the theologic tilts of the preachers
have been charmed by the elo-
quence ofstatesmen, and have heard
patriotic bursts" from the politi-
clans, and not content with this,
we propose to serve up an occasion
for the pedagogue to tell what he
knows of the "young idea."
The last few days found our town
full of delegates from a district en-
bracing one-third of the State. The
Office was anew one, and the can
didates. were all men CT distinguish
ed ability. Judge Bigger of Me
Cracken came into. the conventio n
with a heavy backing from the first
Congressional district. Judges Will
liams and Bunch divided up the
second, while Judge Bowden OF
Logan brought with him the third.
After great deal of excitement and
caucussing, Judge Bowden was
nominated on the fifth ballot, amidst
the cheers of his friends and with
the admiration of his opposers. 1t
was the triumph of merit, and the
first Judicial district will see the
day when she will be honored by
her nominee. 1t is conceded by all
that Mr.. Browder's speech, in NOM
mating Judge Bowden, was the
speech of the convention. A reso-
luton was introduced and adopted
pledging the support of the district
to Tom Henry for the appellate
clerkship. There seems to be u
strong feeling with the leading men
of the State that the Jacobs move
ment is IA complete failure.
Substantial improvements seem
to be the order of the day for Hop
kinsville. Hollands Opera House,
erected at cost of $25, 900, will be
opened some time in September.
1t is a marvel of beauty, an Orna-
ment to the town, and a compile
pliment to the push and vigor of its
owner, Mr.. r. III. Holland.
The gas company promise to give
us gas during this week. They are
II month or two behind, but suppose
the generosity of the company do

time to learn the use of it. ..s..

having them.

GEN. LUKE WRIGHT.

The Memphis Avalanche pays
the following high compliment to
the distinguished and talented
young Tennesseean whose name
heads this article:
If the State-credIt Democrats WISH
to nominate man who will lead
them as no party in Tennessee has
ever been led let them nominate
Luke Wright for Governor. He is
not only intellectually the peer of
any man in the State, but he is a
man of political experience. He
will do the business for the orators
of the ten cent regulators. His
nomination would be Il guaranty
that the people of Tennessee cannot
repUdiate their debt without doing
it with full knowledge of all the
facts. If he should be defeated by
Hawkins or Bate his work would
be well worth the canvass and do
him and his party.nO injury. Ten
neSsee deDt-payers need a bold lea
der and Luke Wright is their man.
If nominated the avalanche pre-
diets he will make the most bril-
liant canvass ever made in any
State since the war. The opportu-
nifty for such a canvass is before
him and he should not hesitate.

THE Jackson Tribune and Sun,
one of the brightest and best edited
weekly papers in the State, and
which up to few weeks ago, stood
manfully and hOnorably for sus
tanning the settlement and thereby
eliminating the veXed question from
the politics Of the State, although
now warmly supporting Bate and
his Readjusting platform, has the
candOr to say:
ave frankly confess that the
platform adopted is not what we
wanted. To our mind no policy of
the State debt other than what at
one time or another had been ten
dered by the creditors, should have
been adopted. Within whose
boundaries there was all of justice
and consistency that any party or
faction in Tennessee can gightfully
claim on the subject. Within those
limits was certain strength and
well-assurCd victory" .
And further it says: "Those
who oppose the Democratic plat
form (meaning the SOB platform
lately adopted by the convontion)
insist that it will not settle the debt.
This may be true. We recognize
the fact that the consent of the
creditor is necessary to any settle
ment."
1t is hard to understand how a
paper entertaining the above Opin-
ions can conscientiOusly support
the 1913 platform of the Readjuster
party. 1t passeth our understand
ing. We can only eXclaim in the
language of the Divine Nazarine,
"Father, forgive them, they know
not what they do"
