Hon. A. J. Tyler, the republican
nominee for circuit Judge in the First
circuit is a splendid man, but the revolt
against the Brownlow ring in that region
has pretty nearly wrought his undoing.
And, by the way, the form of the Hon.
Alfred A. Taylor looms up for a con-
gressional nomination two years from
now. The Brownlow machine was prob
ably slightly overworked and strained
a cog. The "Boss" is great congress
man, but he has been slightly OVERRIDING

RAILROAD RUMORS.

just now the air is filled with rail
roads and rumors of railroads, and we
print elsewhere in this issue several
articles concerning the proposed Sea-
bord Air Line extension to the coal
fields. A dispatch from Baltimore says
this road has bought the Virginia Iron,
Coal and Coke Company and pretends
to give details. The Norfolk Virginian-
Pilot of the gath says the Seabord has
let its option on the V. L., @. n G. Co.
expire since it bought the Cranes Nest
coal fields, but adds that "there has
been some speculation as to whether
the lands OF the V. L., G. & Co. would
not eventually be included in the deal
if it is found that rival mining COM
pany and q rival road is about to enter
the field" The Detroit Tribune says
the Detroit Southern and the Seaboard
have entered into an agreement to build
a road from Lincolnton, N. c., to
Ironton, Ohio, using the South and
Western (the old Three C's) through
this section. Speaking of this rumol
the New York Wall Street Journal Of
the Goth says editorially:
In connection with recent activity il
Detroit Southern there has been ru
NOR to the effect that plans were under
consideration for an extension of the
road to connection with the SeaboarG
Air Line, a small road already in ex
istence supplying some of the necessary
mileage, so that a through system nigh
be formed from the Atlantic seasoart
to the Great Lakes. The origin of the
story was doubtful, and no one coult
be found in Detroit Southern quarters
to give the report any confirmation

toned in regard to the matter, replied
$50 far as | know it is absolutely with
out foundation.

Raised OH "Chawed Guzzle."

Senator Carmack, of Tennessee, who
was conspicuous during the last session
of congress for his attacks on the con-
duct of the war in the Philippines, used
to be newspaper man before he enter
ed the arena of politics. He was asked
the other day if he was sensitive to the
bitter criticisms made by some of the
newspapers on account of his arraign-
ment of the American soldiers in the
Philippines.
"Not in the least, he replied, "and
that reminds me of a story. There
used to be man in our town who was
not very tall and who was so bow-leg-
ged as to appear deformed or crippled.
But he had plenty of muscle and good
deal of grit. One time the legged
man became involved in dispute with
husky six-footer who, becoming tired
of the verbal argument, advanced upon
his opponent with threatening ali
and said:
"You little runtl I've good notion
to chaw your guzzle" whatever that
may mean.
At this the bow-legged man immedi-
ately gathered himself together, squar-
ed off and said; "Alright, I've been
mostly raised on chawed guzzle, SO
sail I'M"
las was once newspaper man, 4"
concluded the senator, 81 don't much
care what they say about me. Besides
I've been raised on that sort of thing.

The Chattanooga News claims to be
democratic, but it has such an insane
desire to oppose everything the Times
says that it can't treat the democrats
of the First district with consideration.
1t is not only not in sympathy with the
democracy of this district in its attempt
to elect democratic congressman over
W. Powerful Brownlow, but it is try
ing to discourage the effort. The News
simply does not know anything at all
about the feeling up this way against
the Supreme Boss or it would not claim
that he can not be beaten by any re-
publican in the district. Hon. A. A.
Taylor or Hon. Dana Harmon could
win over him hands down, but the
democrats are going to run a candi-
date and the ami -Brownlow republicans
are more than anxious to assist in de-
feating the boss. If the News can not
help the democrats up here elect con-
gresham it ought not to put a straw in
their way.
