does not speak through its organiza-
ton who may speak for it? You
represent "mass meeting of Dem
ocrats; )" then why may not other
"mass meetings of Democrats" with
equal right call other primaries and
appoint other committees to open and
hold them? You cannot fail to see
that such a course would produce
utter confusion in the party ranks.
AS the nominee of the Democratic
party of your county / am bound to
recognize its organization, and as you
do dot claim to be acting by it's au-
thority, l, as its candidate, cannot
pledge myself to abide by the result
of your action.
Independent of the authority by
which it is called, find another seri-
Gus objection to your primary. You
propose, if any candidate for the u.
S. Senate shall in your primary, re-
ceive more than half the number of
votes / receive, that / shall pledge
myself to "do all in my power to
elect such person to the Senate"
You certainly could not have con-
sidered that such a pledge would
place before those most interested in
the election OF particular candidate
to the U. s. Senate the temptation to
scratch your Legislative ticket in
order that their candidate for the
Senate might stand the better chance
of receiving more than half as many
votes as may be cast for your Legis-
lative candidates, and it would give
to any who saw proper to scratch my
name from their ticket equal weight
in instrIcting me, with the Demo-
crat who votes the straight ticket
from end to end.
/ desire to add, gentlemen, that |
am not running for the Legislature in
the interest of any candidate for the
United States Senate. My sole in
terest is the success of Democratic
principles. If / shall be elected a
representative in your State LegisIa-
ture it will be my desire and en-
deavor to reflect the will of the Dem
ocrats who elect me in the choice of a
United States Senator.
You have right to express your
preferences, and to express them in
any way you choose. If you hold
your primary, will consider its re-
suit, whatever it may be, and under
take to place a just estimate upon it.
But as the Democratic party has not
instructed me as to its will, the re-
possibility Of representing its rests
wholly upon me, and it will be my

respectable Democrat in all these
United States of America, of National
or State reputation, who would make
a speech in the county and advise
Democrats to vote for any other than
the regular Democratic nominees, and
he would name them Cleveland and
Thurman, Taylor, Washington, Stout,
Richardson, Corban and Goodpasture.
Phelan, ina speech in Memphis but
a few days ago, said that che did not
wish any man to vote for him for
Congress who did not vote for the
candidates for the Legislature who
were the regular nominees of the
party" and your own candidate
Harris, for whom you are willing to
endanger for the success of the Demo-
cratic party, has advised in his speech
here and elsewhere the Democrats to
vote for the regular nominees of their
party. 1t remains, gentlemen, for
you and you alone of the millions of
Democrats in the United States to
advise the people otherwise. While
we have our preference for United
States Senator, as every man has a
right to have his, we are not pressing
the claims of our candidate, nor have
we enquired into or know how the
candidates for the Legislature stand |
on the Senatorship, but we are speak
ing for the Democratic party of the
county. Unless the people stand by
the organization of the party we can
never have any success. 1t is alone
by organization that the Democrats
can carry the county. If the boilers
should be successful now we may
look for boilers from all of the con-
ventions to be held in the county in
the future. The Republicans have
been waiting patiently for this split
in the party and will be quick to take
advantage of it. This cry of the
bolter in behalf of the people and of
their being misrepresented in the con-
vention is no new cry. tits the same
old story that has been told over and
over again by every bolter that ever
bolted convention. Wehave heard
it over and over again in this State
and county, and will continue to hear
1t as long as the minority will refuse
to submit to the will of the majority.
We call upon the Democratic party to
rise in its might and say to these gen.
the will of the people, the
will of the party, in convention as
sembled, must and shall be obeyed,
and when it names by the two-thirds'
rule the candidates, they must and
shall be respected as the candidates
of the Democratic party-just as the
named by the National,
State and Congressional Conventions.
Better, thousand times better, the
loss of a favorite candidate for United
States Senator than the loss of party
organization, for without it you lose
not only Senators but Representatives
in the Legislature, and turn over the
government to our political enemies.

HON. THOMAS M. REYNOLDS,

Who would have thought in the
year of our Lord 1878, just ten years
ago, when they saw the Hon. Thos.
NJ. Reynolds canvassing the county
of Montgomery as the regular nomi-
nee Of the Democratic Party, nomi-
mated by a convention called by the
Democratic Executive Committee,
denouncing boilers, Independents
and repudiators, when the whole
committee and party turned out to
pull him through the canvass, that
they would see him now trying to
depose the regular Democratic Exec
utive Committee, assuming its powers
and the independent candidate for
the same office. The situation is eX-
actly the same to-day as it was then,
except that the regular convention
duly nominated another and not him
self, and he has assumed the roll of
Esq. Slaughter without one-half the
excuses of the latter At that time
the issue of the State debt divided the
people, Capt. Reynolds representing
the State credit party and Esq.
Slaughter the Glow tax party" The
latter claimed to he a separate and
distinct organization from what Capt.
Reynolds then claimed to be the
regular Democratic party, 1t had its
