readers to-day, is one Of the true stripe
nominated by delegates, everyone OF
which are true and loyal republicans.

ideas, is identified with no ling. clique

celebreted as such within the limits Of
the United States. We might as we'll
celebrate two or three "Independent
Days" as more than one Emancipation
Day. So many men looking back to
that September day in 1862. the great
event IS seen dimly. 1t is ditficultto
recall the attending circumstances.
It was g time Of proc!amations, Every
General big and little issued a procla
nation. Many thought, Nseems to
is now, that this was only Vanother
proclamation,' certainly Of little worth
Deyond the lines Of the Union armies.
We see now how little we knew about
It. A great deed, like the singing of
The Emancipation proclimation, is
heralded and carried abroad by the
invisible powers. Librety walking to
and fro upon the earth, stays at no
picket line.
The Emancipation Proclamation did
ne thing Immediately. 1t forced men
O take stand. Men then were forced
% decide for or against their country.
More parties ties were severed by the
emancipation Proclamation than by
any ttler paper written by man. 1t
It was then Union man or Rebel, or
Rebel sympathizer. Then the mower
moved on and the Copperheah coiled
ound the blade Of the scythe.
The black people, the slaves, were
nancipated on the 22nd ofSeptembes,
1852. There never was a slave bought
II sold for good money after that bate.
The date Of the slaves departure from
tie presence and authority Of slavery
may have been delayed for few
months, hut master and slave knew
nat the end had come.
Many people have said many times
ince the 22nd Of September, 1862
hat the slaves were not emancipated:
at one form ofslavery WIS substituted
r another. Circumstances hav
eemed at times to justify this gloomy
ak, but, after all, there has been
reedom, growing and frightening like
ne dawn, from September, 1862, to
september, 1886.
The time has now come when the
emancipation Proclamation seem:
withdrawn in 9 times vemotest blue
The child born on the first Emancipl-
:on Day, ifa man. will vote at the mex.
Presidential election for the second
lime. A generation has grown up to
manhood andwOmanhood, suffrage and
;itizenship,who know nothingofslayerl
Except from tradition. Weare coming
% the time when the equality of men
will be so far recognized; that we shall.
cease to classify men, there by recogniz-
ing inequalities. Emancipation Day
when that tine really comes. will still
be celebrated, but we shall have no
more race" conventions. and no mere
talk about the special color oft OF
that citizen, as requiring q different
treatment from another citizen Of some
othe color.

The republican party is no more
proof against mistakes then any other
party, and if we mistake not, the press
Of the state is making a great mistake
in its abuse and slang phrases ofKelley
the colored candidate for Auditor, on
the democratic ticket Color strikes
closer than party ties, and this abuse
ofKelly on account Of his color, will
have tendency to ALLEVIATE colored
republican voters. Let up on it.

The War Of Roses.

COLUMBIA, Tenn, Sept. 22.-The
Republican candidate spent last night
at the residence Of A. M. Hughes, a
beautiful spot in the suburbs Of this
city. Mr.. Hughes was one OF the
Railroad Commissioners on the Re
publican ticket in 1884. His son is
Chairman Of the State Republican Ex-
ecutive Committee, a leader in the
Houk faction, which is dominant in
that party at present.
Bob, the Democrrtic chieftain, was
met on his arrival on the outskirts Of
the town by platoon of mounted
guards bedecked in white sashes and
rosettes. They were 1000 strong, and
escorted Bob in a four-horse landau to
the speaking place. Following these
came the Witt Rifles and a huge train
OF the unterrifed Democracy OF Maury
County.
The Cantrell Light Artillery had
been stationed on Reservoir Hin, and
as Bob advanced they fired salutes in
his honor. The pike, which traverses
a garden spot of middle Tennessee
was lined on either sibe with ladies
who cheered the handsome Bob al
with barred head he passed forward
The discipline of the horsemen wa
superb. They formed in military pa
rade, and, though not exactly in dres
parade, presented handsome ap
pearance. The procession file'
through the suberbs and into the cit
at o slow rate of speed. The spot
historic in the politics of the State
1t was the old home of James K. Pol
and the scene of many bitter can
paigns.
| The procession was mile and
| half long, the largest that ever assen
bled in the country. Over five thol
sand were on the grounds when th
speaking opened. The brothers d
clared they loved each other, and the
plunged into hot debate. They spoil
, for four hours. The Democrat had d
