THE oowAN-pRowsE CONTEST.
Quite An Interesting Election Contest
Case At Hopkinsville.

The COwan-Prowse contested cleo
ton case was taken up in the Crimi-
nal court at Hopkinsville yesterday.
The Kentuckian says that the case
has the most voluminous "records
ever filed in any case in this Judicial
district. 1t contains nearly 500 depO-
sitions and more than 5000 pages of
manuscript. The pile of testimony
on legal cap paper is a foot thick.

able example of his capacity for
work and his faithfulness in the dis
charge of duty. To do this it has
b 'en necessary for him to take every
spare moment in the day time and to
read for several hours almost every
night since the 10th of March, when
he took up the case. Upon many
occasions he has read till far past
midnight. One night while thus en-
gagged his lamp turned over and sew
eral Of the papers caught on fire, but
the Judge threw his coat over the
flames and saved the valuable docu-
ment5. The calling of the case yes
terday was for hearing argument and
the time of the court will not be taken
up reading dispositions. The main
point now up is the admission of the
new evidence taken subsequent to
the last decision. Mr.. PrOwse's at
tOrneys claim a gain of eight or ten
votes on this evidence, and also want
to throw out several whole districts
upon technical errors claimed to have
been made in their formation from
twenty to thirty.tive years ago. AT
ter these matters are disposed of the
case will be heard ON the appeal
from the lower court, which gave
COwan fourteen majority. Mr..
Cowan's attorneys are hopeful of re-
versing some of the rulings Of the
lower court and securing a majority
of about forty votes for their client. "

These very able journals have been

Worlds Fair Suggestions.

A good suggestion comes from the
Knoxville Journal, the Memphis
Ledger and several other papers, that
cities and towns interested in indus
trial enterprise, take some cps for
organizing and raising fund TO have
Tennessee products displayed at the
Worlds Fair. Ii this is done, form
ing nucleus, private subscriptions
and contributions will swell the fund
to the capacity of respectable eXhi
bition. The way to do this is to call
a meeting at Nashville at an early
date and invite all town and counties
to send representatives and also in
vite individual enterprises. Thus an
organization can he effected which
will soon ascertain what amount can
be raised and tn@ character of exhibit
to be made. There are at least
twenty counties in the State that will
make liberal appropriations and still
more towns, which can be largely
supplemented by individual enter
priseS.
