TENNESSEE SENATORSHIP.
the baltimore sun of yesterday.

From the Baltimore Sun OF yesterday.
In speech in Pulaski, Tennessee, last
week Governor McMillin announced
that he was candidate Tor renomlna-
ton for Governor and would also be
candidate for United States Senator to
succeed Mr.. Turey. He said he wanted
a reelection az Governor as vindlcation
of his present administration, while he
wanted to round out his national political
career, having served ten years IN the
House OF Representatives, with at least
one term in the United States Senate,
for which he felt his experience In the
House we'll fitted him. The Memphis
Commercial-Appeal thinks Mr. McMillin
has made mistake i'll not selectlRg one
Office to run for and let all other offices
take care OF themselves. ut is not
likely" says the Commercial-Appeal,
'that the people OF Tennessee Will be
fascinated by the idea of electing MIR.
McMillin Governor and holding the
Senatorship open for him, and then
having the Governorship lapse to some
member of the Legislature who should
be elected Speaker OF the Senate. They
do not care to vote for one man for Gov
erfsor and then have another man whom
they never thoughtof in connection with
the Office succeed to it. Mr.. .McMillin 6
announcement takes him practically out
of the Senatorial contest" On the other
hand, Congressman 4. w. Carmack, who
will probably be Mr.. McMillin's most
formidable opponent for the Senatorship,
has announced that he will not be can
didate for reelection to Congress. In 8
few weeks he will take the stump in
Tennessee in advocacy of his Senatoria
claims and, being one of the ablest
speakers in the State, he will, doubtless
make effective use OF what most OF the
Tennessee papers regard as grea
political blunder on the part of Governol
McMillin.

GETTING BACK IN THE FOLD
Fromthe Morning News Of Yesterday.

Isaac N. Stevens, OF Colorado, vice
chairman of the National Silver Com
mittee of 1896, has shaken off the dust
and moss of free silver and gone back to
the Republican fold. He has had enough
of Organism and free silver, and while
he makes no excusce for his action four
years ago, he finds that it is time for Re-
publicans to stand together.
Other silver Republicans in Colorado
are doing the same thing, and perhaps
the Centennial State may give the Re-
publican candidate for President this
year solid majority.
