There is q fierce contest now going on in
the Eighth Congressional District Of Ten
nesseo for the Democratic nomination for
Representative In the next Congress. This
district was formerly represented by Mr..
Atkins, and in the present Congress by
Mr.. Taylor. In the contest for the nomi-
nntion now going on one Euloo is the chief,
IL not the only, opponent Of Taylor, tho sit
ting Member, and stands good show for
success.
This man Euloe has history which Is
worth recalling at the present juncture,
Along about 1869 or 20 he was elected TO
the Tennessee Legislature from his county.
During the session of that body following
his election this man Euloe introduced
joint resolution directing the gentleman
who had charge of the Tennessee Capitol
to remove from the Historical Room Of tho
Library the portraits of General Thomas
and of OK. Governor William g. Brownlow.
Another Member seconded the resolution.
but wished 1t to be SO amended as to direct
that the portraits be cast into the Cumber-
land River
Among the other portraits hanging in tho
anne room were those of tho Butcher of
Fort Pillow, Forrest, aud of General Zolli-
Golfer, rebel general from Nashville, who
was killed at the battle Of Warm Springs in
Kentucky early in the war.
When General Thomas, who was then
stationed at San Francisco, heard Of Euloe's
resolution, he at once telegraphed that If
his portrait was shipped to him he would
repay the State its cost, with interest. But
some of the more decent Democrats COM
PEELED Euloe to withdraw his indecent
resolution and the matter dropped.
At the same session this same Euloe in
troduced resolution prohibiting negroes
from drinking from the water-coolcrs
placed for the use Of tho public in the cor
ridors of tho Capitol building. If elected,
will he introduce the same kind of roso-
luton in Congress? Why not? We will

ONE can scarcely pick up Democratic
paper without finding in it call to the
people to "rise up in their majesty aud
thrust out the rotten crew who have SO be.
fouled the Departments at Washington"
If you want to close the mouth of one of
these rousers just ask him to specify where
in that foulress consists. The fellow will
stutter and stammer, aud choke and gasp,
but he'll never give you point-not one.
All such talk is mere froth and sound, and
is only intended to split tho ears of the
groundlings. There has been less stealing
from, less frauds perpetrated on, the Govern
ment since 1861 than in any other twenty
four years since tho foundation of the Gov
ernment. And, considering the enormous
receipts and expenditures during the last
twenty-four years the percentage of Re-
publican thefts compared with the per-
centago of thefts during the same length of
time under the Democracy is as a molehill
to mountain THE CRITIC feels sure that
the official figures would silence tho howls
Of the Democrats about Republican dis
honesty forever, if they were given to the
public.

HERE is another strong reason why our
Irish and all other foreign born citizens are
in favor Of James G. Blaine with whereas.
When he was Secretary of State Mr.. Blaine
had occasion TO interfere more than once In
behalf Of ish-American citizens, and
always did 1t with so much energy and tact
as to secure them in their rights. In re-
ferring to these services George William
Curtis, then and now editor of Harper's
Weekly, said Secretary Blaine's prompt
and energetic action in defense of natural
lied citizens, and of threatening, hostile
commercial policy toward certain American
exports, showed admirable vigilance"
This was written by Curtis in June, 1881,
and is one of series of eulogies by Curtis
on Mr.. Blaine, because the latter possessed
what Curtis calls "the true American in-
stinct'-that is, he always finds and main
tains the American side of all diplomatic
questions. This was pre-eminent charac-
teristic OF N.Y. Blaine's administration of
the State Department under General Gar
field. Mr.. Blaine ;s the same now that he
was then. But Mr.. Curtis now opposes
him. Why Is it because Mr.. @. is not as
much Of an ldmirer Of "true American in
stinct as he was then 2 II that is not the
reason for the divergence of these two inen,
will somebody tell us what is tho reason !?
Surely Mr.. Curtis will NOT admit that fs Is
now opposed to vigorous American policy
And if he Is not, will he tell Us why no is

The Kansas City Journal says that
prominent Democrat of that city who at
tended the National Convention of his
party, and afterward went to Indiana on a
tour of observation, returned home the
other day and replied to some who were
anxious to hear the result of his ob,crva.
tions that "There is no show whatever for
Cleveland to carry Indiana, and there Is no
hope Of his election at all. We must re-
main out in the cold another four years."
Why, you needn't remain out in the cold,

AND still the New York Times is not
happy. 1t kicked on Blame and Logan

Hendricks. 1t could swallow Cleveland
and his vetoes and his alleged or supposed
or imputed family, and Hendricks and his
secession speeches and sore toe, but when it
comes TO lying down with Watterson's
star-eyed houri on one side and Barnum
and his mules on the other, the gorge of the
Times rises, and it heaves and gags like a
greenhorn on his first saltwater trip. 1t
may heave and heave and gag aud gag but
it won't help its sorry case. Those who lie
with dogs must expect to get up with neas,
just as the Times has done, and it may rub

scratches the more it will be Stunned by
right-thinking men of all parties.

ITsappears that the Louisiana sugar
planters had their scare about tho Mexican
reciprocity treaty all for nothing. Under
that treaty Mexican sugar is on our free
list and as the sugar fields of that Republic
arc very fertile the Louisiana growers feared
the competition. But each Mexican State
has the right to levy export duties, and
they arc all so poor that they will put such
duty on sugar that the competition of tho
Mexican with tho American product will
IN fact be no competition at all.

Hon. WILLIAM A. FOWLER, once Com
missioner of Public Works under tho city
government of Brooklyn, N. Y, aud one of
the most prominent Democrats of that city
was interviewed by the Brooklyn Daily
Times on Wednesday last, aud ho thus
summed the prospect of the Democracy at
the coming election:
He was asked for his views upon tho politi.
cal situation. He said there was a growing
sentiment against the local Democratic organ
izatlon, familiarly known as tho machine,
particularly since the party In the county
was so glaringly misrepresented al Chicago.
He saw disaster for the Democracy next fall.
II poor nominations we're made for local oGIicos
II would add TO the dissatis -@ction engendered
BY tho result at tho Nationei Convention and
the reform element OF the Democracy, which
already opposed the Governor, would carry
their opposition to the extreme In boiling tho
entire Democratic ticket. What rendered the
situation more gloomy for the Democratic
managers was the probability that Butler was
likely TO run as Greenback and labor candl-
date. Butler would make heavy inroads upon
the vote OF Cleveland, here and elsewhere,
and probably lose New York and Connecticut
TO the Democrats.
TIT is certainly a gloomy outlook, but
il is a correct delineation of the situation
just now.

befell Matthews, OF Copiah County.
That is, whoever undertakes to carry on
an aggressive campaign for Blaine and Lo-
gan in Mississippi this year will bo shot to
death. That is plain and cannot be mis-
understood. Red handed murder is to be
resorted to to seat in the chair Of state the
nominee of the Democratic party. Well,
if that is to be the issue and the game, let
the people so understand it, and the fate of
Cleveland and Hendricks may be con-
sidered as settled now. This Mississippi
murderer and all his co-partners must be
taught that the day has gone by when the
shotgun and the dagger will be permitted
to decide elections in this country; and no
man will ever be permitted to tako posses
sion of the chair of state whose title
thereto Is sauthenticated alone by tho blood

just rights as American citizens. Any

tion are not fit to bo freemen, and are not
free indeed, whatever they may be in

Hon. CAssIUs NJ. CLAY, who supported
Hancock four years ago, to the great sur
prise and grief of his friends and admirers,
has recently declared for Blaine aud Logan.
In the card announcing his return to the
fold where he won all his honors, and where
he naturally belongs, Mr.. Clay very forcbly
says:
The Republicans have shown extraordinary
leadership In nominating James q. Blaine, In
my opinion, not only the hrst Republican, but
the first living American statesman. What is
his opponentsq II is that abnormal imper.
sonation where the highest Intellectual, senti.
mental and physical forces are happily
united. A man OF tho profoundest philosoph-
ical thought and culture, he adds all tho
qualities which have made all the great lead
ers of the world. In o bad cause such man
would be hard TO beat; but representing all
those great forces snd principles which every
lover OF liberty has 30 enthusiastically appre-
ciated, he is invincible.
Let me say TO that very respectable and no
doubt patriotic detection from the Republican
party, calling themselves "Independents,"
who propose TO vote the Democratic ticket and
70 make the great issue personal one, that
the voice OF reason and OF experience unite In
the old apothegm "that you cannot pull out
Leviathan with q hook" respectfully ask
these learned gentlemen, Is this issue big
enough? VIII all the genius OF Thomas Mast

who kept step with him in tho old, old

him again, and strike perhaps their last
