THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DIS
PATCHES.

The editor Of the Dispatch con-
cludes that we Informed Mr.. Simon~
ton, the general agent of the As
ISOLATED Press, that that paper is a
mushroom or campaign" paper.
This is untrue. We never mention
ed the name Of the Dispatch or any
other paper, to Mr.. Simonton, Ell
Their in conversation or by letter, dl-
rectly or indirectly. When we had
a conversation with Mr.. Simonton
at Atlanta, a few months ago, moth
lug whatever had been said, so far
90 ~n know, about the Dispatch
ever becoming a morning paper.
We have had no correspondence
with Mr.. Simonton, of any eharac-
ter, since anything has been said
about the Dispatch becoming a
morning paper. In short, we have
never indirectly or remotely had any
conversation or correspondence
with the Associated Press Agent
which contained even a hint about
the Dispatch. From anything We
have said or written to that gentles
men, he could never have known that
such a paper was in existence.
As We have before remarked, IN a
former issue, the Associated Press
Is q private corporation. It is in
no sense a political organization
Its business is directed by an exec
utlve committee, of which Hon
Erastus Brooks, editor and princi
pal owner of the New York Elk

Gle, have been taking and paying
for these dispatches for more than
ten years, having in that time
paid for them more than twenty
five thousand dollars. It has
always been the policy of the
Association to protect its regular
patrons against temporary enter
prises. The Nashville American,
for instance, has an exclusive right
to the news of the Western Associ1
ated Press at Nashville, and no new
paper can get it without paying the
American o bonus. The Knoxville
papers have not the exclusive right
to the press dispatches in that sense,
but any new daily paper started
here must give guarantee that IL
will take the press dispatches for as
much as twelve months: 1t is fair
business transaction. So far as we
know, no one has said that the Dis
patch is q campaign paper. The
strongest evidence we have seen
that it is, is the childish manner IN
which is kicks against furnishing
the paltry bond of one thousand
dollars. that il will take the press
dispatches as much as twelve months.
IF it takes them twelve months, no
I one is hurt-if it does not, it will
resemble a campaign sheet.
We are compelled to believe that
the editor of the Dispatch under
stands this matter more clearly than
he pretends to. We are forced tC
the conclusion that he exaggerates,
misrepresents, or suppresses the
real facts, in order to create SYM
pathy. He whines about persecution
and prescription, when he ought, al
an eDterprising newspaper man
assume the responsibilities created
by rule adopted by the Associated
Press, and which any fair minded
business man will admit is right
So far as we are concerned, we have
not the slightest objection to the
Dispatch receiving the news fur
nished by the Associated Press, but
We never supposed that that organi
cation would establish a rule and
then break it, for that paper or any
other.

THE DEMOCRATIC CRISIS IN
TENNESSEE.

What will oe the outcome Of the
present crisis in the democratic par
ty in Tennessee? The leaders Of
the state credit wing of the party
having possession of nine-tenths of
the democratic press of the state,
prefers to believe that their candi-
date, Judge Wright, will certainly
be elected. They are not so conf
dent however, as they were three
weeks since, when in the enthusi-
asm epgendered by their convea~
ton, they made their nomination
A great many discotraging rnT>-'-
arc UUmIng IN; as we learn, from
different portions of the state. 1t
Is dawning upon them that the fact
that Wright is the regular nominee
has not changed the minds of the
voters. Men who were for repudi-
alton four weeks ago are still for
reputation, and the prospects are
that they will not only hold their
own, but if an aggressive campaign
is made, there will be converts to
their views. That Wilson will
make an aggressive campaign is
now certain.
And then, there are not few
prominent democratic politicians
who are still on the fence, waiting
to jump down on the winning side
These men are far from being con
vinced that Wright is stronger thar
Wilson. Their information is thai
Wilson will poll 10000 votes, anc
if he does, Wright's chances are
hopeless. An examination of thu
grounds of their belief shows tha
they are not "countiDg without
their hosts"
The facts are that Robertson

populous counties, he viii get about
half the democratic vote. ~
West Tennessee has been sending
low tax representatives to the legis-
iature for years, and can reasonably
be counted upon to give Wilson
strong vote again, if not actual
majorities.
In East Tennessee, Wilson can
count upon good vote in Bradley,

among Nathan Gregg's constitu,

This makes allowance for an IN
creased vote to Hawkins of less
than 500 votes. He is certain to
get more. Then we have left,
$4,000 votes to divide between
Wright and Wilson. If Wilson
should get only $4,000, then Haw-
kins beats Wright $1,000.
The strongest and most hopeful
state credit democrats at Nashville,
we are informed, believe that Wilson
will get not less than $4,000 votes,
which leaves Wright behind Haw-
kins, while if Wilson gets 10000,
and his friends claim more, the
egular nominee has only 55, 900
