Reynolds Opera House seats ex-
actly TAG in the auditorium, includ
ing the lower floor and balcony.
Every seat was filed Monday and
the stage, which is two-thirds as
large as the lower floor, was seat
ed and every seat occupied. All
the aisle room in the rear, both
up and down stairs, was packed,
and people kept coming as long as
they could get a glimpse of the
speaker. Many were turned away.
We go into particulars because all
sorts of reports will 60 out about
the size of the crowd. From the
foregoing it will be seen that the
crowd who heard Bob Taylor last
Monday afternoon in the opera
house numbered from 1000 to
1900.
Now, we see some top heavy
genius turn around to remark that
Taylor's audiences are women and
children. The committee made it
their duty Monday to give the peo-
pie from the country chance to
hear Taylor and issued printed
notices asking the town peo-
pie to wait until Monday night
when Taylor would make another
speech. In order to see how we'll
this request was observed the re-
porter went down to the opera
house and found an audience com.
posed principally of men residing
in the county outside of Union
City's corporate linn its. There
were a few ladies present, but most
of these lived outside of town.
This is the sort of greeting Bob
Taylor had on cold, raw, disa-
greeable March day in Union City,
and we have studiously undertaken
to avoid any exaggeration ia this
statement.
Bob Taylor was escorted to the
opera house at / o'clock, accom-
panied by the reception committee,
the Second Regiment Band and the
Union City Concert Band. The
Hornbeak Band also travelled over
land all the way from Hornbeak
to be on hand and take part in
The welcoming. The speaker was
introduced by Hon. +. j. Smith,

landed in a far away town, hoping
that my titles had not preceded
me. But my dream was dispelled
when an absent minded old gentle
man with throat whiskers intro
duced me to my audience and said:
Ladies' and gentlemen, | have the
pleasure to introduce to you to-
night ex. Bob Taylor, of Tennes-
see." This is the straw that broke
the camel's back, and determined
that fate was carrying the joke too
far, and | resolved then and there
to return to the old Volunteer
State and shift my burden of ex's
to the broad and ample shoulders
of the ex champion of the saloon
power in Tennessee. Therefore /
am again in the whirl of a politi-
cal campaign, fully sensible of the
formidable in fl u noes at work
against me, and of the mighty in
tellectual power that confronts me.
During my administration we
began the temperance movement
in Tennessee. The original four
mile law banished whiskey from
communities which had incorporat-
ed institutions of learning, and we
amended that law and made II ap-
ply to every schoolhouse, whether
there was school in session or
not, or whether the same was in
corporated or not. This was the
best temperance measure ever in
angurated except universal prohi-
bition itself, but we did not stop
there. The bill submitting con.
stitutional amendment to the peo.
pie prohibiting the manufacturing
and sale of intoxicating liquors
anywhere within our borders was
passed by the Legislature of the
State and ] signed it as Governor.
But where was the Senior Senator
from Tennessee in those strenuous
days when the temperance cause
was weak and unpopular and when
1t required courage to advocate it
and give it the sanction of the
representatives of the people.
Where was the giant of the weav-
ers' beams Let the record speak
again. In the preceding Legisla-
sure of which be was a member he
vas hurling his spear at the pro-
posed amendment and voting
Igainst the cause of prohibition.
5ut he did not pause there. In
SS7 when the amendment banish-
ng the saloon power from the
'tate was submitted to the people
or their ratification or rejection
. was on the stump denouncing
as an infringement upon the
lights of citizenship and an en-
roachment upon personal liberty
fter he and his associates had
inned the measure to the wall
hich would have forever settled
le temperance question. When
was struggling for second nomi-
alton for Governor in 1883 the
aiding whiskey men rose up
yainst me, remembering that |
I'd signed the bill which was
med at their destruction, and in
e front rank of their battalion

heart feared. / was guided by the
example of VIM. B. Bate, whose
courage was never doubted and
whose body was full of scars bear
ing evidence that he was not afraid
to face the foes of his country and

of duty to organized Democracy,

en- by the red plumed Knight of
the Plains, whose height is six
cubits and span and whose coat
of mail weighs 5000 shekels of
brass. My letter of declination
was couched in most respectful
terms without shadow of bitter
ness, and | cannot account for the
biting response | received, so full
of unjust accusations, unless it be
that my former arraignments of
the conspiracy which defed the
will of the people and gave the
Senior Senator two seats in the
Senate was a blow upon his he'll
met. | cannot account for it un-
less the lance aimed at the bene-
ficiary of that conspiracy pierced
the joints of his armor. ! do not
charge that he had any personal
part in that conspiracy, but can
not escape the fact that he knew
all about it, for his friends and
lieutenants were it's chief mana
gers and one word from him could
have prevented it and saved the
State from shame. Can it be that
Just at the very moment when the
mantle of leadership had fallen
upon his shoulders his closest
friends and advisers would shut
him out from the counsel and con-
ceal from him all knowledge of
an act which carried with it such
tremendous i'm porta nee to the
party and to the State? And if
he did know what they were do
ing his failure to expose ii with |
oil the might there was in him
ieaves him party to it. And the
man who was elected by that con-
spiracy now goes before him bear
ing shield of brass.
