The republican convention Of Tennes-
nee has been IN session for two days and
yesterday nominated Gov Hawkins, the
presout incumbent, for reelection. They
also passed resolutions fuvoriug the set

mean great deal or nothing at all.
Tennessee politics are SO mix i that
outsiders ind it difficult, if not impossi-
ble, to form a correct idea of the situa-
ton. The democrats have several fac

their dissensious.

a sCENE ON THE BRAZOs.

There was happy suggestiveness in
a scene witnessed by thousands of peo-
pie yesterday afternoon. The iron
bridge of the Texas and st. Louis rail
road, spanning the Brazos at Waco, was
completed. Thousands watched the last
rail laid, the last spike driven and as the
workers stepled aside the iron horse
came slowly after them At the same
moment an engine of the Gould road
halted on another railroad bridge, but
a few rods further down the river,
and its whistle woke the echoes
from bank to bank. Clearly and
brRvely came the response from the
Texas and ST Louis engine, aud as it
moved steadily to the west bank of the
Brazos, moving toward the Great South
west and to Mexico, there was we say, a
happy Significance in the event, for it
told of pluck, and progress and compe-
tition. 1t formed another link in the
grand chain of events that is revolution
izing industrial and commercial condi-
tons in this state. Yet a few
months and this plucky Texas
and ST. Lousis road will have
spanned another state, as it did
the Brazos yesterday, and from Chicago
via. St. Louis to far beyond Waco, with
superb connections, there will be plant
ed forever a system of road that is des-
tined to play an important part in the
development of the south-west-a
plucky powerful and yet calmly reliant
road, that can hold its own in the strug-
giles Of the future. As Gov. Hubbard
said for the people would have him
talk the Texas and st. Louis has re-
deemed every pledge. 1t has pushed
steadily forward, asking no favors, max
ing no war-kuowiug its rights, know
lngits strength and competent to main
tam the one and assert the
other. We might write at length
and enthusiastically of tins road that has
grown from d bantling to a giant, but
time forbids. 1t is an active, potent
fact; It Is no longer a local line, but a
transcontinental, an international line,
and It's operation will solve the problem
for this continent of the practical value
of system of which it is the leading
representative.
