FORWARD oNcEs MORE.

Now, comrades, we have won a sweep
ing, glorious victory. The Philis-
tines fly; the hosts of sBaal are over
thrown and scattered.
We have gotten together once more,
with the best results Let us keep to-
gether until we reap the fruits of vic
tory. We need more pension legisla-
ton to round out and perfect the work
of the Nations justice to its saviors.
We need, first of all, that the legislation
already on the statute books shall be
carried out in exact and just fulfilment
OF its intent and purport. We want to
begin by having every man and woman
entitled to place on the pension roll
put there with the least possible delay.
Let us begin the struggle for this act of
justice at once. 1t should be done, and
we can secure it, if we demand it with
mistaken unanimity.
Let all the veterans and their friends
rally under THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE's
banner for victorious struggle for this
righteous act. We do not want to wait
until the new Congress assemblies. The
needs of our comrades are far too press
ing to admit of such delay. We must
have the session that is to begin next
month take appropriate action TO right
this cruel wrong, and give us the justice
to which we are entitled.
Comrades, come into camp at once
with THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE, and
form up" for decisive struggle.
We feel sure that we can secure justice
for our comrades this Winter if we
are properly supported by the solid ranks
Of the veterans. Let every one enroll
himself with lis, and give aid and COM
fort to the cause by sending in his sub
scription. Now is the time to act Get
up clubs everywhere, and THE Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE wiIlqdo the rest. You
know what we have done in the past.
If we can show thatiwe are speaking in
the name of a quarter Of million COM
rades actually on our subscription rolls,
there is nothing that il right that we
cannot get for the comrades.
Show your interest in the matter by
sending us in clubs from every part of
the country. @
Do this at once before the meeting Of
Congress.

A COMRADES SUCCESS.

One of the successes that all comrades
can rejoice over is the election of Com
rade Henry Clay Evans as Governor Of
Tennessee. He is a fine type of the
volunteer soldier who cast his lot with
the South at the close of the war, and
devoted his energies to the upbuilding
of that section. He served, when q
mere boy, in the 41st Wis, and on
being mustered out settled in Chstta-
nooga, where he embarked in manu-
featuring, and achieved unusual success.
His high character, his business abilities
and his popular qualities brought him
TO the front in Tennessee politics, almost
against his inclination, for he never
sought office. He was twice elected
Mayor of Chattanooga, and gave that
city a model administration. He was
persuaded to accept the nomination to
Congress against a popular Democrat,
and was elected to the 51st Congress by
vote of 1854 to 1858 for his
Democratic opponent, and 295 for the
Prohibitionist. He was renominated
for the SD Congress, but defeated by a
plurality of 523 in a total vote of 81
407. He was renominated for the SD
Congress, and made a fine run against
the landslide of that year, but was de-
feated by plurality of less than 1000.
His campaign for the Governorship
of Tennessee was phenomenally bril-
liant. Though the Republican vote in
Tennessee has been growing, yet in 1892
it was less than SO per cent of the whole,
and Cleveland carried the State by &c.
5O4 plurality, and Judge Turney, the
present Governor and candidate for re-
election, had a plurality of 26,618.
Gov. Turney relied largely on his record
in the rebel army to aid him. He took
frequent occasion to say that the only
inscription he wanted on his tombstone
was was Confederate soldier" On
the other hand, Mr. Evans appealed to the
young, progressive element, who desire to
put Tennessee in her proper place in the
front rank of States. Judge Turney
and his friends made the mistake of de-
Evans as carpet-bagger."
This did not please many young Demo-
Gratis who had immigrated into the
State and worked hard to build it up,
and was singularly misfit when APP
piled to a man who has lived 80 years
in Tennessee, has there every dollars
worth of property that he owns, and
has done more every year for the devel-
opment of the best interests of the State
than Judge Turney has in all his life.
Another great advantage enjoyed by
Mr.. Evans over his competitor is that
he is an unusually graceful and per-
suasive public speaker, while Gov. Tur-
ney is not at all at home on the stump.
Public speaking goes for far more in
Tennessee than in Northern State.
