FOR GOVERNOR.

This represents about half of the
State. 1t is quite probably that Bax-
ter will get larger proportion of the
remainder than either of the other
candidates. The indications now are
that Patterson, Buchanan and BaX-
ter will go into convention with
approximately four hundred votes
each, while Taylor and Daniel will
have the remaining two or three
hundred. Under the two-thirds rule
about ono thousand votes will be
necessary for a choice, therefore to
secure the nomination either of the
leading candidates will have to rally
almost the entire strength of the
three others. If Taylor should fall
early in the struggle it is more than
probable that his strength will go tC
Patterson, and if Baxter stands up
longer than Buchanan, he will gel
most of the latter's vote. Patterson
is in all probability the ablest mar
in the bunch, and would make the
most vigorous canvass, should he
receive the nomination, but there are
thousands of good Democrats in the
State who don't like the odor of hi!
record on the Bank depositors' bill
Buchanan stands nearer to the masse
of the people than any of them, bu
his craftsmanship is Of the weaklin!
ordor, and he is not capacitated TO
a very brilliant canvass. Baxter ha
been welded to the railroads anC
speculative rings all of his life, ant
has made a fortune out of them. Hi
democracy was not very well devel
oped until he became candidate 70
governor, and is not any too wei
authenticated now, We know little G
Mr.. Taylor, but understand that h
has a clean record. MIR. Daniel ha
only one county for him-Montgom
ery--and his name will probably nc
be presented to the convention.

About the Census.

The newspapers of nearly every
city in the South are complaining of
the loose manner in which tn ecensus
is being taken. Hundreds of ignorant
and incompetent enumerators have
been appointedin the South, and the
following special from Memphisto the
Nashville American of Thursday,
gives an idea of the way the work is
being done in many places:
MEMPHIS, June 19.-The census
enumeration here, which closed to-
day, has been the most outrageous
farce ever heard of. The enumera,
tors for the most part were ignorant,
many of them negroes, and they have
not attempted to do any work. The
Commercial Association has made an
investigation which shows that scores
of houses, including two of the prin
cipal hotels, were not visited at all,
and whole neighbOrhOods of the resi-
dence part of the city have not been
enumerated. Division Superinten-
dent Walker has been applied to, and
he telegraps that he will arrive here
tomorrow. 1t is thought he will ex.
tend the time of the enumeration and
appoint other agents.

THE manner in which the Senate
sat down upon the House silver bill
gives Democrats some hope that that
distinguished body has not yet sur
rendered entirely to Reeds domina-
ton, and a Federal election law is
not so prominent among the prob
abilities as it was a few days ago. 1t
is also more than likely now that the
Senate may tear some of the filling
out of McKinley's little tariff bill,
and the Senate may even squelch
Tom Reed altogether before it gets
through with him.

The census enumeration of the thir-
tenth ward of Nashville found three

One of them, Mary Talley, colored,

white woman to seventeen. No Won

WE CALL the attention of Tennes-

"Farm Interests" page on "The
Growing Wheat Crop" 1t is a letter
to the Country Gentleman from Mr..
c. Wood Davis, who appears to be
perfectly familiar with the worlds
supply, production and consumption
of wheat, and he presents figures,
based upon the experience of the last
decade of years, which appear to show
conclusively that wheat can never
again get below its present value.
We want our farmers to read and
ponder this article. Every indica-
ton now points to wheat as a profit
able crop to raise, and the season is
near at hand to begin operations if
wheat growing is to be made a sue
cess. The future certainly looks ia
vorable for the wheat grower, if he
will only bring all possible industry
and intelligence to bear in bringing
his land up to its greatest possible
Weld.

CLEOPATRA's BONES.

A Chicago despatch of June 18th, says
"A citizen of Alexandria, Egypt, Alex
ander Taglieferro, has written to the
committee on foreign exhibits of the
Worlds Fair. He has an entirely new
scheme, which differs materially from
the projects for hanging gardens, towers,
pyramids, and the like. In fine he says
he is sure he is in possession of the body
of Cleopatra, the famous Egyptian
Queen, and has sent the officials at FaiI
headquarters photograph of the sar-
cophagus, which he believes and claims,
is that of Cleopatra.
1T was recently discovered in Caesar s
camp near Alexandria by archeologists
After paying the Egyptian Government
its dues, the writer says he sold it to a
friend for speculation. When the sar.
cOphagus was opened, the contents fell
in ashes, with the exception of the skele.
ton, which is still preserved. Mr.. Tag
lieferro says he is prompted to negotiate
with the exposition authorities from no
tees which he has seen in newspapers OF
the United States announcing that the
Khedive of Egypt has been asked by the
directors of the exposition for the mum
my of Rameses.
"The AleXandrian antiquarian says
bluntly that he desires to offer the sar
cophagus and skeleton for sale for tht
modest sum of $4,000, the delivery ot
the goods to be made at Alexandria. Ii
explaining the features of the tomb, Tag
lioferro says that the flve faces on the
three sides are positively the images o
Cleopatra. He encloses local newspa
erwith a description of the sarcophagus
and a small Dappr packape containing
pulverized bone, which he alleges is par
and parcel of the remains of the Egyp
tian queen, and suggests that any gooC
spiritual medium will be able to know i
it is really part of Cleopatra's bones,
ut is understood that the eommitte,
thinks very favorably of the proposition
and if the sarcophagus is proven to b.
that containing the bones of the famous
queen, the sum asked for will be readil,
and cheerfully paid. 1t would add t,
