The Tennessee SematOrsilip.

WHAT COL. BURCH, SECRETARY OF THE SENATE,
Col. Burch, Secretary of the US. Senate, said
to STAR reporter to day that the talk Of elect
ing republican 10 the Senate from Tennessee
was ridiculous. 1.-THE democrats said he,
"have majority OF six over all, and will elect a
democratic Senator"
HAS MIR. Maynard any chance?"
None In the world. Why, il the legislature
was republican there are fifteen or twenty re-
publicanS in Tennessee who would have
better chance than Maynard. The fact that
Mr. Maynard is the Postmaster General raises
the hope In certain republican circles that he
can, BY giving certain democrats croSs-road
post offices, induce some of them to vote for
him. In this view the republicans seem to
measure the democratic corn With their own
suits through official patronage that 1T Is con-
sidered lever to accomplish almost anything,
but 1t will not avail in Tennessee
''WhO will be the SenatOr?'
'Well l think Senator Bailey will succeed
himself This for two reasons. II the demo
Gratis caucus for the candidate he is sure to be.
II they refuse to caucus for selection and the
contest Is an open one, republicans. In such
event. would vote for Bailey rather than have
him beaten by democrat. His chance OF the
election is better, decidedly better. than any
candidate know Of"
ABOUT MALONE
Will Malone act With the democrats asked
THE STAR reporter.
Il feel assured" said Col. Burch. THAT he
will. Malone is In position to expect favors
at the bands OF the democrats, and II he is
treated with consideration he will act with his
party"
