To the Editors Of the Union and American
We have no party race in the election
for Judge to-day. As between East, Brien
and Rexford, it is enough that the voters
consider the question of ability. But let
us not lose sight entirely of the election
for Supreme Judges. The people may not
all understand that under the constitution
one Supreme Judge is t0be elected from
East Tennessee, one from Middle Tennes-
see, and one from West Tennessee. Haw-
kins is running without opposition for
West Tennessee; Nelson is running against
Andrews, and against no other candidate;
McClain is running against Shackelford,
and against nobody else.
Let not those who wish 10 see ability
aud learning on the bench fail 10 vote for
Thos. A. r. Nelson. As to the race be-
tween Mccain and Shsckelford, 1 would
say that if the latter has supporter who
will say that he is either honest or capa-
Bile, have not met with such character.
And as the enemies OF McClain seen 10
admit his honesty, and that he is man OF
considerable ability, why not vote for
him? The change could not be for the
worse. Af j. IL.
