ruthlessly stricken down and manacled
in her w temple.
That "purging" business was a rot
ten, hell born scheme, not "to preserve
the integrity of our election laws" but
to count in" an old compound of
moral wreck and imbecility and to
count out' the ~rightfully elected
Governor, who would have opened the
Augean stables of our State govern
ment to public inspection, This scheme
was c%oncocted in the brain of o man
fertile in the of fearful evil,
whose whole life has never known an
honest political emotion and whose
heart is as void of political virtue as
the Desert of Sahara is of fountains,
fruits and flowers.
And now we are told that Bob TAYLOR
was nominated because "he is a clean
man." he had no connection with the
larceny of the Governorship and has
no mix" in the scandals of the Tur.
ney Administration, In short, he has
no political sins to answer for and can
hold up before the people of Tennessee
an escutcheon IS stainless as a seraph's
soul. A man may not kill his neigh
Dor or burn his dwelling, but if he en-
dorses the act, either before or after its
commission, he is particeps criminis
and is just as guilty as if he fired the
gun OF applied the torch. Upon the
application of this well defined and
universal principle of law how can
Robert, or his friends for him, plead
guiltless of Turneyism and all that the
odious term implies? Robert accepted
the nomination, silver platter and all,
though he once said he wouldn't; he is
the machine candidate and champion
by reclamation of a platform that
w~hitewashes old Pete and gives him a
certificate of good character; that en-
dorses his larceny of the Governorship
and appropriation of Coy. Evans sal
airy the crimes and scandals of his Ad-
ministration and the lawlessness upon
which his usurpation is founded.
If all these things do not bring
Robert into the mix" we would like
to know what tyranny of circum-
stances could force him to openly
align himself with his own-the very
men, who, unwittingly and to their
present chagrin, brought about the pc.
culiar ~exigencies that forced them to
call upon Robert Ito help for help
again" If Robert is pure, innocent
and guilele5s, he is a tender lamb
among a pack of ravenous wolves. If
he is what he claims to be end his
friends claim for him, he must have
been laboring under a very strange in
~fatuation when he selected his present
company. Even the rude mountain
GERS in ''back counties" understand
the unfortunate dilemma in which
Robert has placed himself, and when
his circus tent arrives among their
mountain Businesses they will ask him
some very knotty questions, that he
can only answer by a jig on the fiddle,
a contortion of the face, or "a yarn"
on some picturesque character who
dwells, or dwelt, in the regions of the
historic and beautiful Watauga.

men who are Democrats unquestion-

men who are Democrats unquestion-
ably.
Here, there and in every section of
the State are Democrats, who are ir-
reconcilably dissatisfed-.mortified and
Inundated by the fact that the party
is chained to a platform which en-
dorses crimes of the most fearful mag
nitude and to a candidate who must
defend them if he regards the pledge
he has made to the men who nomi.
mated him. These Democrats consti.
tute a dangerousif not a fatal minority.
We had a conversation with one of
this class a few days ago. He is a 70.
bust, decided, obstinate party man. He
Is a man of sterling honesty and thor
ough culture, a student of history, well
Informed on current politics, thinks
for himself and has the courage of his
convictions.
His Democracy is of the Josiah Pat
terson stamp and he regards the free
silver movement as a delusion
fraught with unutterable disaster and
will support no man who advocates it.
He will vote for no substitute of Pete
Turney and for no man who has the
least faint of Turneyism upon him. He
places low estimate upon Taylor's
abilities as a statesman and says the
only business he ever knew him to
prosecute with unwearied industry was
emptying the penitentiary of its con.
victed felons." In his opinion a party
that had to call upon him to save it
from destruction wasn't worth saving.
If it had got that poor and worthless
it deserved death. 1t was his judg.
ment that Turney with the crimes and
scandals of his usurping administra.
ton on one hand, and the profane and
irascible Isham G. Harris with his free
silver vagaries on the other, who is en-.
ragged because he can not control the
patronage of the State, had brought
irretrievable disgrace and disaster upon
the Democratic party.
The Democrat aforesaid is sure that
he is not SOLITARY and alone" in his
deep disgust and dissatisfaction; that
there are hundreds and thousands of
honest and independent Democrats
who love principle rather than policy;
who will be guided by their convic.
tons rather than by the stultifyipg ex-
pedients provided for them, and who
will never bow the knee at the shrine
of political crime and financial folly
that victory may follow self dishonor.
Though they may not vex the public
ear with their grievances they will
maintain a silence and retiracy that
will make themselves felt when the
proper time arrives.
lne oase Wnlcn this Democrat occu-
pies is common sense and common
honesty, and we think he makes no
mistake in his estimate of the number

themselves to be dashed like dumb.
driven cattle'into the support of men
and measures" wholly obnoxious to
them.
Robert quailed once before when the
solid delegations of thirty five counties
withdrew from a convention and al
lowed him to be nominated, and he
will quail many a time again before
his circus tent and his wax figures of
Old Pete Turney reach the mountain

Gently adopted in this State, his title
