TRy telegraph 10 the Dispatch,

NASHVILLE. INN, July 2S.-To-day in an
interview with an Am05cdH reporter con-
ccrning the Federal elections bill Governor
Robert l.. Taylor. Of Tennessee, said; The
force bill is an envious stab at the pros
peritv OF the South. There is no need in
any State for legislation that is designed
tofoment strife. murder, and riot. Even If
II were legitimate and constitutional legis-
lation there IS no need for it in Tennessee.
II is based on the false assumption that all
the negroes always vote for Republicans. II
there is a State where bribery, intipda-
ton, and false counting are resorted TO
this bill will not cure it, because the peo-
pie are persuaded that 1t is all unconstltu-
tional interference with the right TO elect
their own representatives,; Is designed to
disrupt the peaceful relation of the races
and reinaugurate the atrocities that char
acterized reconstruction times, etc.
