To he Eihov Of me DispoaA:
At the first opportunity I reply to your
specific request that I give my opinion
| as to the extraordinary attacks made on
Senator David d HILL This request has
been reinforced by letters Of similar nature
from number OF my constituents. My Demo.
cratic brethren are entitled to have my views
for what they may DO WORTH and give them
candidly.
Ihave no interest In the matter save that OF
citizen who believes Democratic success
necessary to the country's welfare and the
south's safety. Nothing but the conviction
that the attacks on Senator Hill are grossly
unjust. that the people are beirg misled by
them. and that tboy imperi our success could
induce me to take part to repel them.
