GROVER CHEERED.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 15.-The dem- ocratic state convention was called to order at 10:30 o'clock by W. H. Carroll, chair man of the state committee. James D. Richardson was made temporary chairman. Ia taking the chair he said harmony and victory were the watchwords of the party. References to Senator Harris and Hon. Benton McMillin brought fourth applause, but when the name of Grover Cleveland passed from his lips there was a burst of cheering that lasted for some time before Mir. Richardson could resume his remarks. "In finances, y said MT. Richardson, i've favor bimetallism. He reviewed the course of congress in regard to the tariff bill, exonorating the house from the fail ure to carry out democratic pledges.

SOME STRONG WORDS

PRINTED BY AN IRISH PAPER ON THE AC-
 TON OF THE MAJORITY.
 DUBLIN, Aug. 15.-The Freeman's Jour- nal, commenting upon tue rejection of the evicted tenants bill by the house of lords last night, urges Ireland to resent those "intolerable insults." It says that peace can no longer be preached "to the evicted tenants.'
 Now is the time, the Freeman's Journal adds, for the people to make their power felt in strong, united agitation. Justice and mercy fail to move their Irish land lords. Their vulnerable place is fear. Let the pressure of public opinion be applied in practical form.
 The Independent says: The government has made series of mistakes, the first and the greatest being it's failure to take earlier action,

CRENsHAW RELOICEs
OVER THE VICTORY OF STRAIGHT DEMoC
 RACY-THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

OVER THE VICTORY OF STRAIGHT DEMOC-
 RACY-THE NEXT GOVERNOR.
 LUvERNE, Aug 14.-[Special Corre- spondence. ]-Now that the election is over our thriving little city has regained it's nor maj condition and has settled down to busi- ness. At the same time our entire citizen ship joins Ala hama in rejoicing over our grand and glorious victory in electing the Gone armed hero of Henry,' with his able corps of subordinates. Our county is still under the stigma of having elected democ- racy's opposition candidates, but we feel elated over the fact that the combined ma jority was educed last Monday from 775 in 1892 to only 63; that was Kolb's majority in Crenshaw. The death knell of the third party has been sounded, and it will be an easy matter to bury the entire gang when we get another opportunity.
 The folks down here have already named the next governor of Alabama. He halls the whole southern part of our state, the leading statesman of Alabama. His mag nificent work in the campaign just passed has been by far the most efficient of any of the distinguished speakers we have had on the stump. The whole southeastern part of Alabama insists that it will be an out rage to try to defeat Capt. Joseph F. John- ston for goveI )r next tims, and we think twill be very toolhardy in any over ambi- tious aspiraut to try 1t on.
 To our next governor, Captain Johnston, we doff our hats, and will welcome the day for him to take the oath of office with a great gladness of heart, although we were against him before.

LIVING ON BLOOD MONEY

WAS THE CHARGE AGAINST CLANR:CARDE
 BY CHARLES TANNER.
 LONDON, Aug. 15.-After the division in the house of lords last night on the evicted tenant bill, Charles Tanner, Irish nationa- list, member of the house of commons for Cork, approached the Marquis of Clanri- carde in the central hall and in a menacing manner told him that he was living on the blood of his tenants. He also used other strong expressions.
 The Marquis of CIanricarde was cool, but talked Of having Tanner arrested. He did not do so, however, and the incident was allowed to drop. Clanricarde's speech in the house of lords during the debate on the bill was much cheered. A large crowd was waiting outside the house of lords for news of the result of the division, and when Lord Salisbury left the house he was loudly cheered.
 split has occurred among the members of the house of commons com mittee, which is considering the Irish land acts, and minority, representing the views of the landlords, have seeded.

LACKS CONFIRMATION.

LONDON, Aug. IDA telegram was re- ceived here today from Yokohama, Japan, saying. that seven Chinese vessels were sunk in recent engagement with the Jap anese. This report lacks confirmation and probably arises from the statement cabled news had been received there of battle which took place on the 11th instant be- tween the Japanese and Chinese fleets, and that the Chinese were driven off. Inquiry being made at the Japanese legation here fail to elicit any confirmation of the re- port. The French gun boat Lion, which was present at the sinking of the transport Row Shing and which was reported to have rescued some of the latter's men, has arrived at Tien Tain.

and what pleases the boys as well Is
the hearty sympathy the Elder accorded
them. The speaker said he was born
during the war and was not interested
in it.; that is, the war; but he honored
the soldier and always felt like dotfing
| his hat when he met one. Forty-three
soldiers marched TO Robinson cemetery,
one mile out of town, led by the Gobe-
vile cornet band, discoursing appro-
pirate music, and it is we'll known that
| a soldier can endure much more march
| ing when led by good music than with
out it. Seventy little girls and boys
carried and distributed flowers. The
usual services of Memorial day were
performed over the grave of Comrade
Elder Walker. The procession re-
formed and marched back to town,
preceded 10y the band, broke ranks, and
proceed To do Justice to the viands pro-
vided by the Ladies' Relief Corps. Ia
bles were found spread i'm the rink and
everything necessary to regale the inner
man, both meat and drink and and all
the attending luxuries, were found in
superabundance. After attending To
this most necessary part of the pro-
gram, the tables were removed and the
hall was soon seated and every seat
filled as soon as placed, so anxious was
every one to feast the mind as they had
the body. The speaker did not disap-
point his hearers and all were we'll
pleased. The Glee Club were ut the
front and did their share to make the
occasion interesting. After the address
by Ed Holley, Commander Elder Hart
made a brief speech in his usual happy
style, with an occasional joke OF the
war thrown in. 1t was intended that
the cornet band should have occupied
the stage, but the crowded condition of
the hall precluded this. Notwithstand-
ing the solemnity of the occasion, every
one enjoyed themselves, the weather,
which had threatened rain, remaining
favorable, although rather cool for ice

To the Editor - Kindly permit me

would like to convey the idea that am
still insane-not satisfied with my eight
years incarceration in the asylums of
the state, over one-half of which time
my detention was unjust, and which |
stand ready to prove, and prove strong.
But this only comes from those who
tried to hold me there through motives
of commercial nature-dollars and
cents, and to-day if they could get me
back there again it would be all they
would ask. | do not wish to carry the
idea that it is my own flesh and blood
who seek to east such misfortune upon
me, but those who ought under all cir
cumstances to lend helping hand and
assist me to bear my Affections rather
than heap more upon me. But my en-
emies are SO few that give myself no
uneasinesS with regard to my welfare.
think am equal 20 any emergency.
Ii there are any in doubt as to my
sanity, let them come and talk with me
before they make up their minds on the
subject. i am open for interviews at
any time. If these people wanted to
NEEDLE with my affairs, they should
have done so while / was in the asylum,
and not have waited until my life was
Slapped by my long and unjust incarcer-
alton, and when it was left in the hands
OF my neighbors to have one of the
greatest wrongs ever perpetrated on
man, rghted. +. BULHAND.
