awe nemecralIe Nominee.

The Brownsville States Democrat re-
ferring to the nomination Of ALI. Tay
Tor by the Republicans for Governor
makes the following well timed sug-
gestions which we trust and believe
the Democratic party when it assem-
bles to nominate candidate will heed,
1t truly says that "the Republican
convention having nominated Hon
A. A. Taylor for Governor, it Incomes
the duty of the Democracy to nomi-
nate the very best man they have to
carry their banner to n glorious Veto,
Try in November. Not that there is
any reasonable fear of Republican sue
cess, but because Taylor is Il very pop
ular stumper, ready and able debat-
err and thoroughly familiar with
State and federal politics, aud his
opponent therefore, should be able to
cope with him, and manfully sustain
the cause of Democracy in the canvass
The Democracy cannot afford to nom
mate weak candidate, who will make
himself the laughing-stock of the
State. We must have brainy man
alert on the stump, and with exper
fence in public debate, regardless o
what section OF the State he comes
from, who will not only carry the ban
ner to victory but reflect honor digni
ty and credit upon the party. w
have score of men in public life in tn
State who are abundantly able to sue
cessfully and brilliantly uphold tn
Democratic cause. Let us put fol-
! ward our best man.

A correspondent of the Rogersyille
Herald, concludes a lengthy commun-

That is untrue, and the writer krew
it was false when he wrote it. He
has since boosted on the streets OF
Rogersyille, that he knew it was not
true but that Judge Hacker would be
afraid to deny it,
We are not authorized to speak fol

Enthusiastically support the man who il

express the wishes or sentiments Of tn
Republicans OF Hawkins county; OF
the contrary, it was manipulated 10
Brown against the wishes of the peopl
who actually instructed for Judge Hac

ciary of such rascality, is asking hir

The Rivers and EHarbOrs.

The River and Harbor Bill with
New York Harhor, which is needing
attention, left out, would be rather a
singular document, and the Senate
has done wisely to insert the provision
of 81 100000 to make good the omis-
sion of the House, provided the bill is
to become law. There is only one
good reason for generating the
House for leaving it out, and chat is
the idea that it would give the bill
sufficient strength to carry it through
with all its imperfections, but since
the House placed the imperfections
there it can scarcely plead that excuse
1t is to be hoped that the insertion of
the clause will not have that effect.
New York City would prefer to take
its chances Of getting the needed APP
preparation in some other way to put
ting the country to the expense OF
wasting millions in the country at
large in order that this harbor may
receive attention.
River and Harbor bills have been
repeatedly defeated because OF the
ridiculous practice OF making useful
expenditure dependent upon the pros
ecution of unwarranted work. Year
after year the same trouble arises.
Congress makes up a bill largely with
reference to district distribution as OPP
posed to national necessities, and the
President must approve all OF it OF
none. Sometimes its character is SC
conspicuously unreasonable that he is
compelled to interpose a veto. Thus
partially completed work is in some
cases brought to standstill and the
value OF what has already been expend
ed is to q greater or less extend lost
We had no appropriation last yea
and probably shall have none tlii~
Congress should either eend up s"pAr
ate bills for each improvement, rs j
does in the case Of public buildings, o
the President should be empowered, AZ
the Governor Of this State is, to get'
clauses, or, what is practically thC
same thing as the latter, be granted
discretion as to whether the money
should be expended or not. Blu
Congress has lever on the Presiden
as the matter stands which it prefer
to let the public interests suffer rathe
than give up.-New York World,

Special to the Nashville American
BRISTOL, Tenn, July 5.-The full
lest convention ever held in Sullivan
County assembled at Blountville to-
day. The Old Guard will be there in
August with locked shields The fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the Democracy Of Sulli-
van county have the utmost conf
dence in the honesty, fidelity and
ability OF the Hon. r. l.. Taylor; that
he possesses all those qualifications
which the great dignity and RESPONSE
bility of the high Office of Governor
Of Tennessee demand Of its occupant ;
that he has the native vigor of intel
lect, with an earnestness of disposition
qualifying him in an eminent degree
to discharge the duties of said posi-
ton that as popular orator he
stands unrivalled and would, in our
opinions, make an able canvass Of
the State, carrying the proud armour
oil Democracy from the mountains Of
Johnson to the waters of the Missis'
sippi in GLORIOUS triumph that his
life has been pure and upright and
party service greater and more valua
BILE, perhaps, than any Democrats il
East Tennessee.
Therefore, as an evidence OF oul
high reward for his honesty, ability
and political services, be it resolved
that he is Sullivan County's frs
choice for Governor OF Tennessee, ant
the delegates appointed by this con
vention to the Nashville gubernatoria
convention are hereby instructed t.
: cast Sullivan's solid vote for him TO
, Governor first, last, and all the tim
: while his name is before said conven
l ton, and use all honorable means t
insure his nomination.
! Be it further resolved, that tn
Democratic party of Sullivan Count
heartily endorse the nominees Of tn
Democratic judicial convention, an
pledge our support at the ballot box.

The Senate is not wise in attacking
the President on account OF his vetoes.
1t is true that the amount OF money
saved by these is small, but Mr.. Cleve-
lands action upon them shows the
right spirit, a sesolve to prevent, as
far as he can, extravagant legislation /;
and many Of these private pension
bills is an unnecessary and uncalled
for expense, and the aggregate of un-
justifable pension bills is large.
Mr.. Clevelands course has here
been in the true line of Democratic
profession, whatever may have been
his divagations in point OF theory
His vetoes OF the pension bills art not
only popular in themselves, but they
will be thought to indicate a resolve
to veto extravagant big bills, since he
is so careful about small ones.
The Republican Senators seem still
to labor under the delusion that they
can dig some campaign material out
of his action, as if the country could
be persuaded that every man who ap
plies to congress for pension ough
to get it if Congress, without any AIDE
quate knowledge or examination o
the facts, is pleased to grant him one
The Republican Senators will proba
bly, find out that the American peopl
want common sense applied to tn
granting Of pensions as we'll as to otl
er matters.-N. Y. Sun.

A correspondent Of the Knoxville
Tribune last week wrote letter con-
tanning charges or rather insinuations
against Jno. P. Smith, Esq, Republic
can candidate for Chancellor. We
are not espousing the cause Of Repub-
lican candidates, but honesty and fair
play demand that justice should be
done Mr.. Smith. 1t is true he was a
Clerk & Master at Taylorsville several
years ago, and that he left and went
to Washington without letting any
one know where he was going. While
he was gone his books were examined
and his accounts found to be correct
and his Office in good condition. He
returned in month or six weeks and
being tired Of the position OF Clerk d
Master resigned, He want to Wash
ington to get government position
and failing in that returned home
That is all there is in it, These are
the facts as we have always under
stood them. We presume the Irib
