will bring back the whole democracy
and absolutely assure the triumphant
supremacy of our party in the state,
and maybe the nation. To their logic
The Comet does not agree, but to the
end, to their earnestness, to their hon.
esty of purpose, we bow, because we
are truly democratic. It is useless to
talk of progress in matters Of state, or
to hope. for reforms except through the
united efforts of all democrats working
as great party. Party harmony and
party unity stands as prerequisite to
all other things, and without which
chaos, political, industrial and moral,
stands as a black sentinel at every door
of hope.
Men may hug the phantom of fusion
for little season, and honestly so, hop
ing for better things therefrom. But
fusion is essentially political disorder,
a turmoil, an upheaval. 1t is not from
the tempest we must calculate, but all
heights are reckoned from the calm
level of the sea. Let us therefore have
a primary once again, overlooking and
safeguarding and minimizing its evil
with every known provision against
corrupt practices, fixing our faces to-
ward the morning, from whence COM
eth the light. If man be true dem
ocrat, there is no sacrifice he will not
make to put the old Volunteer State in

tional democracy in its onward march

Whenever you see a man running
with a banner of reform in one hand
crying aloud from the corner, and a
the same time he has bride money ir

attempting to bride his way to power
set it down that he is not only dema

man to run at large. He is not only q
hypocrite of the worst type, but a
criminal at heart, and only an oppor.
tunity is needed for the commission OF
dark and desperate deeds.
1t is rumored that a certain politician

Save us from that reformation which

as a member of such committee a GER

not only the condemnation of every

having honors heaped upon him he
ought to have stripes and do service

man who would pay price for polit-
ical service by deliberate bargain and
sale, who would corrupt his fellow
man and steep his soul with the dregs

BLOOD ON THE MOON

The bad men at the head of Bitter
Creek are on the warpath, as is theil
wont, and are growing more turbulent
every day. That is to say, the repub
licans of upper East Tennessee arr
building campfires, sharpening knives
and organizing their clans. Wher
Brownlow died, there was not mar
among his followers to carry his spear
bend his bow, wear his mantle anG

lars for his district, was luid under the
sod, the organization went to pieces,
and the man who had fought him so
long and so bitterly became his sue
cessor, though sort of compromise as
rirant was elected to serve out the un-
expired term. But Sam Sells, the ora.
torical cyclone who had given Brown
low more trouble than any and all
other contestants who essayed to de.
throne the "Easy Boss" walked away
with the crown.
Sells has been a new man in house
that is democratic. During the short
session he had no chance to do more
than get acquainted, learn some of the
ropes, and familarize himself with the
short cuts from one department to an
other and the way to be admitted with
the least possible delay. There was
nothing in the way of appropriations
to be had at the prolonged extra ses-
sion, but Sells was not idle. Some of
the offiiceholders had been overly Off
cious in opposition to him and he bust
ed himself taking their scalps and
placing his own friends and supporters
in conjunction with the succulent
fleshpots. Sells won his nomination
in primary election, as has been the
custom in the First district since 1894
though several times Brownlow was
declared the nominee without opposi.
tion-but there was no election of Con-
gressional committeeman at that time,
or, if SO, the. majority was against
him.
Another election is coming on next ,
fall and the republican appetite for po-
litical PIE in the mountain country is
shaping up for fight to finish. The
Executive committee has been called
to meet on November and determine

All this can be avoided by the use of DR..
