GREETING.

II is done; the battle is over white
Democracy has won again! Truth is
mighty and will prevail; flood is
thicker than water and principe is
greater than prejudice! And no"
across the deep blue river, and over
the emerald hills, Tennessee throws
q greeting aud kiss to the fair bride
to Alabama and DemOcr acy. They
were welded yesterday.
We envy your happiness; we ac'
knowledge your bravery, in that you
are the first OF the Southern states to
step out from among the traitors and
imbeciles, the secret foes aud avOwed
enemies of good government and
white supremacy, aud stand un-
daunted and unscathed in this great
danger-a danger greater than that
through which you have ever gone
more to be dreaded than the reign OF
the alien; more to be dreaded than the
rule of che radical; more to be dread
ed than the howl of the negro mob
the disruption of your own peO-
pie.
But you did not break a single
golden heart-truth with q daily; nor
color, for a single second, when the
hour and the tempter came, the
virgin purity of your fair cheek with
even the shadow OF q doubt or hesita-
ton! You defied the tempter and
drove him from you with the flash OF
an indignant eye and the scOrn OF q
virtuous wrath!
Tennessee thanks you. You fill
her soul with courage and her heart
with honest endeavor. She has the
same battle to fight that you have
fought aud 50 calamity wOn-the bat
tie for white Democracy, uncOntami-
mated aud indebted. Asking no IA
vors from traitors from within OF
enemies from without, we send you
greetings with the words: "Wel
be with you soonW

A COMPARISON between the cleo
ton held yesterday and the
county elections heretofore, demon
strates what organization among
Democrats will do. Heretofore the
candidates were bled to death by
political leeches; the merchants
were greatly annoyed and their
trade interfered with by bowling
hOOdlums and excited crowds in
turn; the farmer and his labOrers
were harassed by a multiplicity OF
candidates and Sheir paid electors.
To-day everything is quiet, and to-
! morrow the Democratic nominees
will have walk-Over and good men
will be elected without any faint OF
fraud, bribery or corruption. All
this comes from Democratic organ
ization, and the HERALD proudly
reminds the people OF Maury County
that it was the HERALD who first
suggested this organization and was
its champion through the doubtful
stages when others were trimming.
This illustrates the difference be-
tween AL aggressive and clam
policy. One accOmplishes something
for the people. The other works
entirely for itself.

THE election passed off quietly
all lover the county, as far as we
have been able to hear. The
nominees had walk over. II there
was any money spent at all, it was
given away, because the Democratic
nominees had votes to spare without
buying any. 1t vas an election
without fraud, bribery or corruption.
1t was the first general election
without bribery and corruption held
in this county in many years. Such
an election could not be held with
out Democratic organization, and
the COLUMBIA HERALD brought
about that organization. That is
what the Democratic party and its
organ, THE HERALD, have done for
Maury County. Now is the time to
show your appreciation of its serv-
ices and subscribe. Semi-weekly,
Que year, one dollar.

BECAUSE one of the State troops at
Homestead expressed sympathy for
the fellow who came so near killing
Frick lately, he was tied up by his
thumbs by his commanding officer
and whipped. This was done with
out trial by cOurt-martial. He has
sued for heavy damages, instead of
doing as he should have dOue-try-
ing a stick on the head of the com
manding officer after being released.
Admitting the soldier was wrong,
such proceedings are inexcusable; for
in this country, even q soldier may
have an opinion Of his own.

Oh, the bluegrass plot in the old back lot,
Where played in the days long gone!
Where the sweet grass grew meath the morn
ing dew
And my life was a summer morn.
The wiId-rOse spread DER the porch overhead,
And the wrens twitter'd low in the caves
But the birds are fed and the roses are dead,
And around lie the heaps OF the leaves.
Oh, the bluegrass plot in the old back lot,
How long 10 be there once more!
With the calves in the shade the elm-tree
made,
And my mothers form at the door.
Where the brook brawled along with a
sweet glad song
And played with my dog in his gIee,
Till thought all the CLEAN or the sun and
the stream
Was made for my dog and for me!
Oh. tho bluegrass plot in the old back lot
How long for your cool, quiet shade,
When the sun went down and the crescent
crown
or the moon rose over the glade,
How we played the sheen OF thy dewy
green,
With a shout and a laughter wild,
Till called to our beds where three weary
heads
Soon slept the sweet sleep of the child!
! Oh, the bluegrass plot in the old back lot!
Oh, the mem'ry of childhood days!
IT'S bright as light in an endless night,
And sweet as the hearth-stone blaze!
1t comes with the thrill of voice that is
still
And a form that made us culver,
To point our soul to that better goal
