WHAT THE rAYToRs WILL DO.
ALI and Bob Continue to Unfold Their
Their Ideas of Statesmenship.


NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct 23.,-Early this
morning Clarksonville, the center of the
tobacco growing region of Tennessee and
prettiest town in the State, was noisy with
brass bands, and the yells of the young
Democracy and the booming of cannon.
The streets were packed with people anx-
ious to see the distinguished brothers, ALI
and Bob Taylor. Together, in a carriage
drawn by four white horses, they were
taken to the Gracey tobacco warehouse,
and in short time the large building
was filed to oyerfowing.
Bob was introduced by Judge Quarles.
After the long and loud applause which
his appearance aroused had ceased he said:
-'I come to talk to you about great
questions which involve your material in
terests. Next to your religion is your poll
tics The one concerns your happiness
hereafter, the other your welfare in this
world. l am proud that the day has
dawned when brothers of the same flesh
and blood can discuss before a vast audi
ence like this the great questions which
involve their,interest without even disturb
ing the delicate relations which exist be-
tween them"
On the tariff Bob said: Republican
orators make long spider web
arguments, confusing the tariff ques-
ton, and the farmers cannot tell whether
he is for it or against it. The Republican
party has deceived the farmers and laboI-
ers of this country under the pretext of
protecting them. They have built up
great monopolies. If there be strikes,
riots and labor troubles, lay it at the
door of this party"
The speech was applauded from begin
ming to end.
Alf was introduced also by Judge
Quarles. He said: IF you will allow me
to indulge in little pleasantly will say
that don't expect this audience TO ap-
plaud me, because cannot make faces.
You have been entertained and | have
been very highly entertained myself. You
have cheered him Justify and given him n
grand demonstration, but am none the
less proud of the cause which ] advocate
do not want vote Mhich is not guided
by the torch Of reason"
Just here some one said, Then. you
won't get negro vote in the State" A
crowd of people started out. Bob arose
and said; ~ beg that you have enough
respect Tor Inc to remain and hear my COM
petitor, as his friends always do for me.
The utterance was generally applauded,
and Alf proceeded: For my part want
to quit the past want to bury the . ha-
treds of the war and discuss living ques-
tions. 1t makes me sorry for
my brother when expose the
weakness of his position on the
tariff and on the Blair bill. He says TINT
as Governor he will have nothing to do
with the Blair bill agree with him.
He won't have anything to do with it
But when become your Governor | pro-
pose to recommend that the Senators be
instructed to vote for the passage of the
bills
The discussion to-day was the most
spirited which has been made in the can
vass and evoked great interest. After
the Speaking Joseph f. Washington, who
will be the next Congressman from this
district, presented in an eloquent speech,
Alf with boquet of flowers and Bob with
q large ship of white roses, nominating
both for the second place on the next
Presidential tickets.
