Fifteen or twenty years from now we
really believe that the results of = cam

cause Of the immense independent vote

be influenced by bombast or political So
phistry. Things point distinctly TO greater
independence of American voters and il

dent intelligent vote will put all parties

So much betting on the result of an elec-

estimation.

JTHERN STANDARD McMlNNV1LLE. TENNESSEE JULY 49,

the streets of McMinnville and con-
fer with the voters of the county. A
reliable gentleman from Collins river,
who opposed the STANDARD in the
prohibition race, informed us yester-
day morning that if Mr.. Snodgrass
should be the nominee he would lose
twenty-five democratic votes in the
Collins River Valley. The same
kind of news comes to us from all
parts of the county. The friends
of Mr.. Snodgrass in this county
know full we'll that there is broad
spread dissatisfaction all over the
county with the action Ofthe conven-
ton in instructing the county as a
unit for Snodgrass. Admitting for
the sake of argument that Mr.. Snod-
grass has a majority of the county,
land we feel perfectly satisfied that he
has mott, he is only entitled to a fair
proportion of the county in the
Congressional Convention. Mr.. Bates
has a strong and enthusiastic support
in this county, and is justly entitled
to it in convention. The Era, in its
partisan advocacy Of Mr.. Snodgrass,
has taken particular pains to suppress
the opposition to him in this county.
If the Era will interview the people
of the county as they come, it will
find abundant reasons why Mr..
Snodgrass should not be nominated.
He cannot carry the Democratic
strength of this county, and it is
folly for his friends to try to force
him upon the county or upon the
District.

CONSPICUOUS figure in every move that
would advance the material prosperi-
ty of the people of his county.

The result of the balloting so far
in the convention shows that the
Hon. Creed F. Bates has clear ma
jority of the convention, having led
Mr.. Snodgrass by twelve votes, omit
ting fractions, on every ballot. Per-
feet harmony prevails in the ranks of
his followers, and he has developed
staying qualities" which cannot be
doubted or shaken by the Snodgrass
men. While we have lost none of
our admiration, for Hon. John R.
Neal, and would be only too glad to
have him for the nominee, we know
that he is sincere in not desiring the
race, and we now think Mr.. Bates is
clearly entitled to the nomination,
and can give him most hearty and
enthusiastic support. We are salts
fed now that the democracy of the
entire district will rally to the sup
port of Mr.. Bates and elect him in
November.

A Gallant Fight for Clean Politics.

The Sacramento RECORD UNION deserves
the thanks Of all good citizens for the gal
liant fight it made for clean politics and hon.
est municipal government. There is some
thing besides mere names in politics.
First, and above all things, honest and
capable men should be placed in charge of
public affairs. While men may differ as to
policies, there can be no difference among
good citizens as to the necessity of honesty
and devotion to public duty in the admin
istration of government. The soundest
political principles cannot avail if corrupt
and incapable men are invested with pub
lie office, and the administration of affairs
is left to those who regard the body polite
as legitimate object OF plunder.-iSaa Fran
