certain that the Democrats and Peoples
party, which fused in this state. will have
a majority on joint ballot in the leglsls-
turc. The vote for United States Senator
will be q fusion and % Republican.
There will be contests in two counties
where the canvass is to he made Wednes-
day Of this week, The fight will be ON
members for the house of representatives,
which will be fusion, while the state senate
will be Republican. These contests will
be carried to the Legislature. The state

parties have an even show in the pivotal
counties.
The Republicans are 'straining every
nerve to return T, T.. Warren to the United

wealthy Tennessee MacGhee; A. l.. New,
nephew of John c. New. and the man who

judge in territorial days, and Nellis Cor
thcll, a young lawyer who has grown up
with the country.
