To the Voters Ninth Judicial Circuit of Ten
nessee.
Being confined to the Court House all the
while is why write to you, and do not come
in person to see you, to announce | am a
candidate for reelection to the Office of At
torney General.
1t has been the custom Of the country to
give man a second term if he performed
his duty well the first term, and made good
officer; and besides, an officer who has had
the Office one term is better qualified to per-
form its duties than any new man-the best
service for the country is what the people de-
manipulating my claims on these and other
considerations, l earnestly request your valu-
able support, and will ever remember your
kindness in this respect.
Attention to my daily duties at the Court
must plead my fitness and faithfulness to the
Office more than leaving the office TO cleo
tioncer for my reelection.
A convention or primary will be held to
send delegates TO judicial convention. My
CLAIMS are subject TO the action Of the Demo-
cratic party, and if elected will, as heretofore
perform my duties promptly, and with kind
ness to all.
Hoping for the endorsement Of youisel
and friends, am, Yours Truly,

SENSATIONAL LAND SUITS.
Story of an Old iowa Prospector and
His 1900 Acres.

Council Bluffs, Ia, Oct. 1.-TWO
hundred civil suits will be fixed next
week by the heirs of the late John
Irwin, to recover 1000 acres of land in
western Iowa, valued at million dol
lars. The story of the title, when
stripped of the legal phraseology, is an
interesting one. 1t starts back in the
early sos, when John Irwin, an active,
vigorous pusher from Ohio, with keen
foresight as to the possibilities of the
then virgin west, came into Iowa and
began entering land on military bounty
warrants. He gathered up a mass of
patents, securing the title to many
acres. and then settled back into life
of mental inactivity, so far as his
rights to the property were concerned.
Broken in mind, he seems to have paid
little or no attention to business, and
in the course of time these thousands of
acres slipped from him, being sold for
taxes. From these tax deeds, other
transfers were made, and owners set
tied upon the farms, and Improvements
and increased valuation have gone on,
and yet the demented and eccentric old
man made no voluntary relinquish-
ment of his title by deed or otherwise,
but simply let it sleep. There are about
$1,000 acres involved, embracing some.
of the choicest land in Iowa, scattered
along from Missouri to Minnesota.
Irwin died several months ago and his
heirs have his papers arranged so that
the suits can be commenced at once.

are brought from various places along
the road and frequently three or four
are taken aboard at Richmond.
After looting the car of all the mon
ey, the robbers uncoupled the engine
from the train and ran it several miles
up the road until a coal chute was
reached, where it was wrecked. The
train was left standing until an en-
CINE was brought from Quantico. The
train remained at the scene of the rob-
berry two and one-half hours and ar
rived here at PIG a. m.
The door of the express car showed
evidence of the dynamite and all the
glass panes in 1t were shattered. 1t
was, however, allowed to proceed to
New York, and the express messen-
ger, Crutchfield, who was in charge,
accompanied it. The robbers escaped
With their booty and up to this hour
have not been apprehended In fact,
the police department of this city at
2 a. M, have not been notified of the
hold-up. 1t is thought the men es-
capped across the Potomac to the Mary
land side of the river.
Within the safes were six registered
packages and each one of these were
opened by the robbers and their con-
tents looted. The two men who entered
the car showed some familiarity with
shipping practices, as one of them de-
manded the production of the waybills
when told a safe was empty. It is
thought the estimate of money secured,
as given by an employee at S150,000, is
much too great.
