ready to JOIN any party or faction
which gives assurance of success;
on the other hand many Generals,
Colonies, etc., of the Federal army,
are in The Democratic party and
many in the Republican party, so
no mans military record is prop
er test OF his politics, what he is
now and the policy which he advo-
Gates is what should be considered.
What party is this that requires
a man to vote blindly for its candi-
date on the plea of gratitude, and
denounce as renegades from DemOc-
racy all who refuse to do its bid
ding? 1t is the party, which arro-
gates TO itself the entire and exclu-
sive custody of the State honor, and
Immediately does all in its power to
violate its plighted faith, nullify its
best laws and rob widows and Or
phans by the higgling process it Is
the party which assumes to itself
the right to arbitrarily sit in Judge
ment on the claims of the creditors
and without their consent or the
consent of those who differ from it,
decide as to who shall be paid and
how much, regardless OF anything
further than an understanding to
nov, Tho y,o0of In a Y,oonnor RI oot0h
the most votes; it is the party which
while calling In question the De-
mocracy OF every CHE else abandOns
the principles, declarations and
pledges of the Democratic party,
among which are prominent "equal
and exact justice to ALL" and "a
maintenance of the public faith ana
credit, State and Nationally" it is
the party which, while denouncing
State Credit Democrats as "Repub-
lican aid societies." boldly and un-
blushingly forms a coalition with
the very lowest and worst elements
of the Republican party, putting
two of the most notorious OF the
Memphis mob on the joint ticket
aud pledging their support, in con-
sideration of promises from the
communists to vote for Bate; it Is a
party which has made no profession
which it has not cOntradicted, which
has put forth platform, which is
in itself bundle of contradictions
and a palpable fraud il Is party
which refuses to let its supporters
discuss its merits and dement's with
its opponents; in short 1t is party
whose success means shame and
continued strife to our State, and
defeat to the Democratic party in
the next Presidential campaign.
And yet this is the party which
demands of Tennesseans to lay aside
all other considerations, to pay a
debt of gratitude to a chivalrous
statesman who dare not meet his
opponent on the stump, but iocks
off by himself whose services to
the Democratic party consists in
spread eagle speeches at conventions
and in conspicuous absence in pub
lie discussions, whose craftsmanship
at three score is yet to be developed
and whose only valid claim is that
he is personally very clever gen.
tleman, and while soldier did his
duty as such. We cannot afford to
ruin a State to reward a soldier, it
would be better to pay him PEN
sion or a bounty and be done with
it. The Office of Governor of Ten
nessee is not to begiven as a person
al reward, but should be bestowed
on the man whose policy and adj
ministration will best subserve the
interests of the State and add to her
prosperity and the happiness of her
people.

/ SAW the Democratic party be-
come the organ of oligarchism, the
advocate of slavery, the promoter
of weak, costly, splendid and cor
rupt government, and finally, saw
it so powerful that it was able to
make it's exit from pOwer-which
had only been brought about by
division in its own ranks-the sig
nal for the greatest and most useless
war of modern times. / saw all
this. / was victim to it, for |
loved the Union and hated slav
cry, and yet, with thousands of
other young men of the time, was
borne down in the vortex and made
not by Democratic principles or
traditions, but by irresistible con-
ditions created by the devil of party
spirit-tO raise sacrilegious hand
against the flag and the honor of
my country. Thank God, | am
here to-night to confess it.-Speech
of Henry Patterson, editor Louisville
COiaier-JOuu7aal, delivered at Toledo
Oct. 7, 1882.
How does the above set on the
stomach of Southern Democrats and
ex-confederate soldiers, whom the
Hon. Henry is draggooning into
the support of Gen. Bate against
their convictions and the principles
and traditions of the democratic par
ty? Has not the devil of partisan
spirit or the fiend of personal spite
got control of him? Read and re-
fleet We sons of Tennessee, who
swear by the Courier-Journal. Is
the man who would utter such sem
timents at this late day a safe polit-
zeal guide? Why make such dec
now, or why conceal his
real feelings for twenty years? 1t
is only another turn of this political

THE Readjusters advertise the
notorious colored communist Of
Memphis, Ed. Shaw, as "The Hon.
Edward Shaw, the celebrated color
ed orator of Memphis" He is now
a Bate electOr, for which service the
Half-breeds agree to pay him by
voting for two of his henchmen.
This agreement was made In open
convention and is the most shame
full case of bargain, intrigue and
corruption of modern times. Who
are aiding and abetting the Repub.
licans now? Shaw's faction are the
most rabid and worst elements of
the Republican party in the coun-
