THE SOUTH IN FAVOR OF HILL.

Concerning the recent Tilden Club
meeting and the abusive language and
Incorporate criticisms of Bryan and
Watterson, the Chicago Chronicle
says: "No great amount of discern
ment is necessary to grasp the fact
that the New York meeting was in
tended to introduce David Bennett Hill
as a modest aspirant for the presIden-
tlal nomination of united Democracy.
Whatever else may be said about him,
it cannot be denied that Gov. Hill is
representative Eastern Democrat II
New York is to present candidate to
the national Democracy with any hope
OF success, he must appear to have
the support Of the party in his own
State and section. The Tilden Club
function developed another fact very
conclusively, and that is that the
Cleveland and Hill factions OF the
Democratic party, long estranged, are
willing to cooperate hereafter. If
things have come to such pass that
the veteran Democrats of the East,
with Grover Cleveland appearing as q
private IN their ranks, cannot propose
to the Democrats OF the nation such a
fighting leader as Gov Hill without
causing a volcanic eruption of mud
in other sections of the country, we
will have to assume that too many
Democrats need to learn again the
first principle of Democracy, which is
federation"
Federation Is a virtue which is ut
terly foreign to the natures of some
men. In the fierce criticisms of the
Tilden Club meeting which have en-
anated from some quarters personal
disappointment, spite, revenge and
hate have been too clearly apparent to
be concealed or effectively denied
As to Gov. Hill, he is regarded as a
presidential candidate with more favor
by the South than any man who has
been mentioned, BE is more popular
with Tennessee Democrats than any
| Democrat who has been named as a
possible candidate for President. No
body doubts Hills Democracy; no.
body questions his ability. He is a
very poor Democrat who could not
cheerfully hail Hill as the Democratic
nominee for President Where is the
Democrat of whom it can be said
that he would make stronger can
dldate or command larger vote, than
Hill?
LII may De that the party Will deem IL
advisable to take up Judge Parker,
of New York, or some man who has
not yet been mentioned or even
thought of, when the time comes to
make nomination; but if it decides
to nominate a man of national reputa-
ton, whose qualities as leader have
been demonstrated, whose Democracy
is unquestioned and whose ability is
universally conceded it can find no
available man who would more COM
mand than David b. Hill. Nashville
