Wallace's Great Circus in Ohio.

There is no gaiusaying the fact
that the Wallace Circus is on the
top crest Of the tidal wave of popu-
larity. To be overcrowded and turn
away hundreds and thousands of
people is a frequent occurrence.
The Dayton CO., Journal said:
"The Wallace Shows visited Dayton
yesterday for the second time in its
history, and to say that it was as
good as one year ago is giving it
well-merited praise, but the truth of
the matter is that it was better than
last year, and those who atteL d ed
either performance were highly en-
tertained.
''The tent was filled at each per-
Torrance, despite the threatening
rain, and a tent of much greater
seating capacity could easily have
been filled. The crowd was thor
oughlY good-natured and demon
strated its approval of the program
as a whole, and the numerous feat
ures of the performace were given
merited applause.
The date for the exhibition in
Bolivar of the Great Wallace Show
is Monday, Sept. %.

NEWLY ELECTED ATTORNEY GENERAL

The Supreme Court has made a
very popular selection in the election
of Charles T. Gates, Jr., to be At
torney-General and Reporter. Mr..
Gates is a son of Charles T. Gates,
ST., practicing attorney of Mary
vile, who was the first democrat
sent from Blount county to the leg.
isl&ture after the war, coming in
1875. Mr.. Gates is about thirty-eight
years Of age. He received his edu
cation at Maryville College and the
University of Tennessee, and has
been practicing law about fifteen
years. He was a delegate from the
state at large to the Kansas City
convention in 1900, and is now
Chairman of the Knox County Dem
ocratic Executive Committee, and
in August won splendid victory
against overwhelming odds. Mr..
Gates is a successful lawyer, having
as fine a practice as any lawyer in
East Tennessee. He is splendid
speaker, clear, concise and forcible.
Though not tall, he is a man of
splendid physique, and as handsome
a man as the ladies would care to
look upon. He is of a genial, sunny
disposition, ever winning steadfast
friends, and has no enemies, except
in politics, for he is a party man
strong, fearless and aggressive. He
is a man who was never known to be
IN the doubtful column. He is for
his friends first, last and all the
time, and his money and time are
always at their command. While
the other candidates had warm sup
porters and friends, even with these
Mr.. Gates was warm second choice
and his election will give general
satisfaction in legal, as well as polit-
ical circles. -Nashville Banner.

Weekly Crop Report.

The weekly crop report as
issued Tuesday, Sept. 10th,
by the United States weather
bureau, at Nashville, shows
that the frosts last week did
little damage except to to-
bacco, which was slightly
damaged. The bulk of the
crop is now being cut, and
the first cuttings are being
fired.
, Cotton is opening up we'll,
in some of the western coun-
ties rapidly, in others slowly 7;
picking is becoming general
and is in full progress. The
crop in most sections is below
the average and not up to the
expectations of three weeks
ago. Rust is prevalent and
in the middle section the crop
is barely all opened, with lit
tie or no top crop.
Farmers were busy during
the week cutting corn, saving
hay and fodder, grinding sor-
ghum, and where the soil was
favorable, blowing and pre-
pairing for the fall seeding,
and many are now ready to
to SOW wheat. In many sec-
tons an increased area will
be seeded to wheat.

LuVernites Stirred up.

People at Luyerne are considerably
stirred up over the marriage of Lou.
Use Hofeman, white girl, to Thos.
Woodford, a negro. A special says:
"Both parties are well known in
Luverne. The young girl is the
daughter of Henry Hoffman, of
this city, a highly respected and
wealthy citizen. The girl disap-
peared from her home about the
middle of last week, and while her
frantic father used every possible
effort to find her no trace was OBJ
tanned until the news of her mar
riage to the negro was given in the
Sunday morning papers. Woodford
is the colored boy who was ordered
to leave Luverne by an ANONYMOUS
letter some months ago under the
penalty of being hung to telephone
pole. While at the time the threat
as made the majority of the people
of Luverne strongly resented it I'M
der the impression that it was un-
warranted, developments since he
left town a few weeks ago have
shown that whoever sent the letter
was seemingly justified in so doing.
1t is alleged that the girl is only Il
years of age, and that her father
will commence criminal prosacu-
ton against Woodtord. "-Luverne
(Min.) Journal.
The Tom Woodford mentioned is
a Bolivar negro and went from here
several years ago, going north with
a man by the name of Hinckle.

reached a personal stage in
which principle seems to have
been lost sight of. The graf
ification Of personal spite
seems to be of far greater i'm
portance to some than the
good Of the party.
Mr.. Tuten has been de-
clared the nominee. We dis
like and deplore the meth
DDS by which he secured the
nomination, but he got it and
we accept the result and put
his name among the list of
democratic nomin ees.
Hereafter, however, we
would suggest to the demo-
Gratis of this county that they
be more careful about the Sc
lection Of delegates to con-
ventions, and the delegates
when selected should be ex-
tremely careful as to whom
they give their proxies.
The abuse Of political in
structions, while not punish
able under the law, is none
the less crime and a grave
and serious one.

THE SENATORIAL CONVENTION.

The principal subject dis
cussed for the past week by
t h e people Of Hardeman
county has been the action Of
the convention at Savannah,
which declared Mr.. w. r.
Tuten the nominee for State
Senator.
The manner in which his
nomination was secured is
we'll known-he received the
necessary two-thirds by some
of the Hardeman county del
egates, and others who held
proxies, dIsobeying instruc-
tons, which were to vote for
jackson so long as his name
was before the convention.
Feeling runs high over this
breach of faith, and those
who refused to obey the voice
of the democracy of the coun-
ty are being censured as they
justly deserve to be.
Many of Captain Jackson's
friends, and they are among
the best citizens and most
loyal democrats in Hardeman
county, insisted that he make
the race through for the State
Senate, regardless Of the con-
vention which nominated Mr..
Tuten, honestly believing that
they are not bound by its
action, and he has decided
to do so, as will be seen
from his announcement pub
lished elsewhere.
The BULLETIN was a sup
porter Of Captain Jackson's.
Hardeman county rolled up
a handsome majority for him.
Other counties shortly acted.
McNairy instructed for him
and he received a sufficient
number of votes from Hardin
to give him a majority of the
convention. But when the
convention assembled a two
thirds rule was adopted.
This method of reaching a
nomination has been obsolete
for years and is never resort
ed to except by politicians to
defeat the will of the majori-
ty. After balloting at Sell
mer over 1900 times the con-
vention made no nomination
and adjourned to meet at
Savannah.
When the convention re-
assembled at Savannah sew
eral hundred ballots were
taken without result, jackson
leading on every ballot.
Finally a part of the Har-
deman delegation brought !
about a nomination by DISC
beying the expressed will of
their people, voting u of it's
20 votes for Tuten.
These men may be able to
explain their course to the
democracy of H a T d M n
county-the burden of proof |
is most certainly upon them.
We regret to admit it, but
it is a fact that the political
situation in this county has
