Only Possible settlement.

Elsewhere is a communication upon
the debt question which bears upon its
face evidence of thoughttulness and
needs no explanation. We urge the
people TO read it. 1t follows out the
suggestions made by the CITIZEN in
effect. 1t is the only possible way out,
and by far the best. 1t is all compre-
hended in the suggestion to BUY and
BURN. Until We adopt some eliminat-
ing method the question will be used
by politicians and demOgogues to adj
vance themselves. This crowds down
demagogues and winds up the question
surely and in the cheapest and most ac-
ceptable way. We commend it to
democracy. lhe suggestions are in
choate as yet but they may be reduced

The Republican Convention.

The most respectable republican con-
vention that ever assem- bled in Tennes-
see met in Nashville last Thursday.
Judge r. r. Butler presided and the
platform is the usual bundle of plati-
Iudes and insinceritieE. Horace May
nard and HOuk were there. Gov. Haw-
kins was nominated by acclammation
without a single dissenting vote. 1t
developed one fact that is not to be
deplored-that the colOred man is learn
ing more OF wisdom and moderation
and is making creditable strides to-
wards useful citizenship. He is coming
out from under the bosses and thinking
and acting for himself. The convention
took the highest state credit ground,
favOring the go cents proposition, This
does not mean that they are sincere,
but that this position is the one that
affords them the best opportunity to
win. They would not scruple to take
the other side if they saw more promise
of allies from low takers. They did
it in Virginia. This fact is sufficient to
deter any democrat from falling into
the net so skillfIlly set. 1t is a ''snipe-
hunt by moonlight" Some democrats
will consent to hold the bag while the
republicans pretend to drive snipe.-
Hawkins Will be beaten this time.
If he is elected by the assistance Of high
tax snipe-hunters, he will disappofnt
them. a man with sense enough to
form an opinion upon the debt question
Is certainly wise enough TO see through
this scheme. There will be no consider
able going over of high takers.

The Meeting Monday.

Mondays meeting was representative.
1t is perfectly apparent, as we said last
week, that the people do not wish this
legislature to settle the debt. Senator
Matthews declined to appear at the
meeting and it is considered certain
that he will vote for COG. Representa-
tive Lester answered the invitation and
made a speech, sensible and moderate,
but not indicating that he would yield
to the voice OF instruction. 1t Is not
claimed that representative is bound
to obey instructions, and il is not right
that he should do so always, for the in
structiOns may come from minority
and you cannot always ascertain the
wishes of the majority; but in this case
there is no installing the popular wish.
1t is almost If not absolutely universal.
Then, should Capt. Lester yield to the
expressed will of the people! We hest
tate not to say that in our opinion he
should. We admire the stern tenacity
with which he clings to his opinions be-
cause he believes them right, but we can
not see that yielding here would COM
| promise him. He says he was elected
| upon platform that furnished him all
necessary instructions and iC is not re-
| quiz ed OF him that he should depart from
| the doctrines there laid down and that
was the democracy he was elected to
/ represent, and il 1t has changed it ought
| not TO require him to change with it.
! This is plausible argument, but defec-
| tive, we think. He was elected to repre-
sent the people in the usual way and 10
| the usual time. 1t is not usually the
case that so many extra sessions are
called and questions assume SO many
shapes. The extraordinary change in
affairs required extraordinary sessions,
and Tow it is but fair that we should
have an extraordinary addition to the
| platform to meet these changes. De-
mocracy has not changed--it is a
| change OF circumstances-and it be-
comes necessary to meet these changed
conditions and the old platform makes
no provision for them. Then what shall
we do: Go TO the people who made the
other and see what their wishes are in
this instance, and then do it. Capt.
Lester is an honorable, conscientious
man, and whatever his action is, it will
| be prompted by what he cOnceives to re
| the right. He cannot compromise his
! honor by rejecting the wishes of his
constituents. He was elected to do that
and we hope he will do so, as he has not
| positively said he would not.

We hear some complaint OF
bad stands of cotton that was

it as yet, and trust there will be q
good crop made. LEON.

There are as good demOcrats and as
honest on one side as the other. Free

opinion is right and does not AVA
ken our animusity if the opinion is
contrary to ours. 1t does not follow
that any mans opinion is right because
il is his opinion. II democrats will con-

their opinions and draw out moderate.

The Americans charge that there is
coalition between the republicans and
certain democrats is frivolous and alb
surd and is not warranted by what
Judge Butler said. He said and meant
that there exists q similarity of opinion
that may result I'm high tax democrats
voting with republicans. He did not
say, and no construction of. his Ian
guage warrants the assertion, that there
is an alliance, an agreement, trade.
The Americans frivolous persecution OF
every one who dares to differ with il is
calculated TO force the very thing it
condemns. Who would say that the
American has taken the contract TO run
some democrats over to the opposition?
4 nd yet such an inference is as plausible
rs It's charge against the Banner. All
this is damaging. The country people
must take these matters in hand. These
fellows who want office for themselves
or friends are getting things into a dis
