will happen if Senator Cannack
and Governor Taylor meet in joint
debate:
'"And his opponent will say to him
face to face on the stump Gf he ever is
given a.chance) you sent for me AFTER
Senator Bates death and burial, to call
to see you, and did so aud without any
suggestion upon my part you said to me
that you thought deserved to succeed
myself in the Senate; that YOU thought |
the people of Tennesaee owed it to me;
that whether elected or defeated III the
race then pending, you would support
me, and that all you asked was that | |
should take no part IN that fight between
you and Mr.. Frazier. gave you my
word that Iwould not take any part in it.
faithfully kept that promise. | chal-
lenge you TO name man ! spoke to, or
w Sito S'tNuhtHtehSO PotHVihS W euO
Slightest effort upon my part to influence
any member Of the legislature. And
having kspt NY faith with you ] now
impale you before your countrymen as
man whose personal word is not to be
trusted.
Our Bob knows these things are being
said OF him and will be said to him if he
meets Mr. Ca-hack in joint debate,
Aence he is tryin./to expedite mat
tiers by the county primary plan,
and thus avoid theissue."
The Carmacll men lose no OPP
poEtunity to predict the dire re-
suits TO Taylor of II meeting face to
face Of the Senatorial aspirants.
We think this is the first time that
y statement has been nrade OF the
particular methods of annihilation
TO be used. And its "beaut,"
now isn't itf The frenzy Of fear
that Carmack followers display at
every move tn expedite a popular
expression is rather aughNble, W,
give the aboveexcerpt to our read
ers to show whathls home paper
says will be the thunder bolt Of the
Senior Senator's much Wanted
battery Of ipSeetive, as it has abou
it the merit of genuine humor
funnier still because the Herald il
so simply earnest about it. W.
wonder, truly, if any body except
a.x the Herald, really believes this tail,
n OF 1uylors sending for Carmack t.
l beseech his nonrinterference an(
pledge to him his support forever
and aye if the Senator would onl,
do what the Senator was proclaim
ing from the house tops, that h,
( WAS doing any way? Carmack ha
roared and hammered it int
everybody's ears that in the snap
caucus matter he was always hand
Of always intended to be hands OF
4 and neither powers nor principal
tvs could sway him from thi
noisy purpose, He was doing tn
same thing when Taylor is said t
| have.sent for him to beg this net
| tra!ity at the price named above
| It's real funny. No un-fear frer
lied man believes it Of course. Yt
the story has significance. TIL
Herald says that Our Boo know
these things will be said to him
he meets Carmack in joint debate,
Is Z possible that the Heral
knows whereof it speaks? If Cal
/ mack really means to place h
I .scampaisn on this low plane of muC
Il Singing misrepresentation an
n hillingssate it is indeed fortQna'
Ill that ii is known to Taylor SO tn;
he can refuse to attract crowds
liigh- minded Tennesseeans to
II insulted by such lndecency,
Taylor does know this he ought

M Joint discussion with Mr. Carma,
