but there will be one of them that
will not have much voting strength
The strong parties will be the Repub-
hsan party, which advocate the pay
ment of the debt of the State, and
the low-tax' faction of the Democratic
party, which will advocate the re-
pudiation Of a portion, or the whole
of the debt. The State Credit Dem
Ocrats will be divided between the

Democratic party. ! do not see any

KEY NOTE

Everything tends to unihcatian
Of the Democratic party in the next
Gubernatorial election. To retain
power the Republican party is willing
70 form a coalition with the low-tax
Democrats in favor of reputation, or
the hightax Democrats in support
Of the 1908 bill. Indeed, il is whis-
Pered around Nashville that all alliance
Of this sort will be formed before the
election in November. The Demo
cracy of Tennessee Is determined in
the next canvass TO put down the SER
pent Of faction wherever it raises its
venOmous head. There have b en-
struggles, but the struggle now should
be in generous rivalry of devotion to
the common cause and common sue
cess. If any leaders Of either wing
Of the Democratic party contemplate
a coalition with Republican party
IN the hope of securing Office by play
ing the part Of a Tennessee Malone,
We would say to ali such, bewarel
You may contemplate the murder of
the Democratic party, but in the end
ySu viii discover that you have only
committed suicide. Such treachery
would simply beyOur own ruin; it is a
two-edged sword, and it would fall on
your own heads. The people have
memories and the spirit of righteous
retribution would inevitably follow,
besides, the plan could not succeed;
any such design would betray itself,
and when the people found such a
purpose insiduouslv plotted they
would rise in their might, overwhelm
the conspirators and carry the ticket
triumphantly through on the crest of
an irresistible popular wave. But we
do not believe these stories. If there
was ever any such threat it was the
passionate expression Of momentary
disappointment. The tide of mighty
events has swept away the differences
the feuds and hatreds of the last can
vass, and in the next election the
Democrats will unite on a common
platform and follow the common flag
to vicory' Thus the outlook for the
next campaign is suspicious. All the
signs are Propitious, and all the in
huences are ripeniRg brilliant success
Antagonisms are mellowed and sub
dued. The Democracy Of Tennessee,
with all its traditions and momentum,
its past and its prestige, its discipline
and fidelity. its future and its oppor-
tunities, will prove that it is still ca
pable Ofruling wisely and well. This
is no time to disband the Democratic
party of Tennessee no time to 60 out
Of the Democratic camp. We have
had battle within the party, and
now let US unite and battle against the
common enemy. [ Memphis appeal.

The Destruction Wrought by the
Floods.

Little Rock, March3.-A gentlemen
from Southheart, Arkansas, reports
a deplOrable state OF affairs, the river
Is fifteen inches higher than ever known
before. Much stock has been drown
ed, fences and other improvements
have been washed away; the levees
are gone from Hushahacking to Wick
sburg. This involves loss which will
reach nearly n million dollars. At
Catfish Point, Miss, the levee gave
way Wednesday night, sweeping away
stores, residences and out buildings.
Several negroes were drowned. There
was no warning given. The loss of
lite Was great. None seemed to realize
that the food was upon them hence
they failed to take precautions. Gaunt
hunger stares the people in the face.
A big rise has swept thousands of tiers
ST logs either into the river, or bayoLs
and lagoons inaccessible at ordinary
stages Of the water. To cum ar 200,-
600 people are left without present
means of sustenance. No stock, no
seed. no fence, to make another crop.
Every body bereft of money, or
credit, nothing is left except tina
under water from four to twenty
feet.
