OUR SENATOR'S.

At an informal meeting of dele
gates to the Democratic State cons
ventiOn, held at the Masonic Theatre
Monday evening, Senator Howell E.
Jackson made a speech, and some of
his utterances grated harshly ON the
ears Of at least a portion of his au-
dience. Among other things he
said - There is right and d wrong
IN this matter, and as long as God
gives me mind and will, am for
the right; | would not rob Tennes
see OF her good name, or cause bust
ness men to feel they were suspect
ed of not possessing that honest
manhood which comes from keep
ing an unbroken word. And again,
he said:
And I say to the people, we
must respect ourselves, the land
we live IN, and the public senti-
ment OF the world. We can
not ignore these things and
prosper. L believe in the payment
OF our debts and the preservation of
the good name OF the State, yet l
never intend to Int the party above
the honor OF the State of Tennessee.
It is no wonder that after such
plain talk as this, the mob of disors
derby repudiators became noisy, and
commenced calling for Elk Gov.
Marks, who they were sure would
talk more in accordance with their
yitiated tastes. But the Senator

IL his remarks before the Demo
cratic meeting Monday night, Col.
John II. Savage said his policy was,
first, to save the people of Tennes,
see; second, the Democratic party,
and third, he would like to do some-
thing for ''old man Savage" He was
in favor of settling the State debt
proper, and leave the railroad bond
question for the Supreme Court at
Washington to shed it's light upon
it. ''One thing" he said, they were
all agreed upon, and that was that
they want to beat Hawkins" Now.
if Savage and his crowd, who sup
ported Wilson in the last cam
campaign, on a platform
which opposes the payment
of any of the railroad bonds, are
willing to compromise on 50-3. they
want to cheat Hawkins mighty bad.
They would be willing to saddle
upon the people of Tennessee twelve
millions OF dollars, drawing three per
cent. interest until paid-a debt
which they say the people do not
owe-merely to ''beat Hawkins" In
other words, they would be willing
to pay twelve millions of dollars, or
have the people pay it, to cheat
Hawkins. l." A pretty good price to
pay for harmony.

HuntingiOn's Plans

ST. LOUIS, March 25.-C. p. Huntington,
IN an interview regarding railroad affairs,
said there will be no change in the policy OF
the st. Louis and San Francisco railroad,
The road will be extended as originally de-
signed. He stated that he intends building
a rallrod from Eagle Pass, Tex, to the Gig
OF Mexico, AMI believes it will be first, as the
route selected offers less engineering diff
culties and passes through amore productive
country. with populous towns, than the other.
The Galveston, Harrisburg and San
Antonio road will be placed in Grst-clsss CON
dition, thoroughly ballasted and the present
iron rails replaced by steel rails. He will
also have a line completed from San
Francisco to New Orl ans and Galveston
about September. Mr.. Huntington expressed
the opinion that the ownership in railroads
means control, and that attempts to regulate
freishts by legislative action will lead to
disaster. He favOrs laws to prevent freight
discrimination, aud said It was always his
policy TO make uniform rates properly
classified.
