An now it appears that the people of
the First Tennessee senatorial district
are preparing to visit the sins on Con-
gresham Brownlow upon the Hon.
John l. Cox, who was an active worker
for A. J. Tyler, Mr.. Brownlow's candi-
date for circuit Judge. Mr.. Cox's dis
trict is composed Of Sullivan and Haw-
kins counties, both of which gave sub
stantial majorities for Harmon, the
democrats in each county being largely
benefciaries by reason of the republic
can spit. 1t is stated now that the
Harmon republicans will ask the dem
ocrats to put out a man for the state
senate against Cox, whom they can
support, and that as result the Hon.
John l. is liable to get a black eye. Mr..
Cox has always been suspected of being
a part of the Brownlow machine, and
his attitude in the late fight seems to
give color to the suspicion. Democrats
generally in the First circnit were in
terested in breaking the force of the
Brownlow organization, and Mr.. Cox s
efforts in the opposite direction may cost
him his influence as a factor in First
district politics. Chattanooga Times.

A Case In Point.

Since the morning paper is profess.
eddy so anxious for fair elections we
would like to know what it thinks of
the suppression of returns by republi-
can postmasters i'll the First circuit, by
which Dana Harmon is prevented from
receiving a majority ON the face of the
returns for circuit Judge. Tyler was
the nominee of the Brownlow machine,
sure enough ring that ought to be
busted He has been given certifl-
cate OF election by the holding out of
the returns from the Twelfth district of
Hancock county and district of Clai-
borne county. The democratic commits
slons and returning boards are ministe-
rial. The returns were not in hand.
They certified to those received. The
returns had been properly mailed, but
were mysteriously missing. Does the.
journal and Tribune favor permitting
such trick to win? Harmon possibly
was bolter. But a majority of the
people of his district voted for him.
Who are the election ''robbers" and
thieves, and does the morning paper
wear the collar of this ring, so that it
refuses to critizise it? We have always
had a high respect for Mr.. Tyler and
we may also express surprise that he
should allow himself to profit by this
trick. We feel yet that he will let the
office go to the person receiving the
largest vote. Knoxville Sentinel.

An Election Puzzle.

They are swift politicians up in East
Tennessee. In the First circuit Tyler
and Harmon were candidates for the
circuit judgeship. After the election,
from the returns sent in, it appeared
that Tyler had majority of 1902 votes,
with few districts, however, yet to be
heard from. Without waiting for these
districts, the returns were sent to Mass
vile, and q commission was issued to
Tyler. Since then the missing returns
have shown up, and it appears that Har-
mon received majority of SO in the
election. In other words, if these re-
turns are straight, Harmon was elected,
but Tyler has gotten the commission.
1t will probably take alawsuit to decide
the case. The missing returns are the
crux of the case. Are they genuine?
Were they held back that they might
be doctored so as to give Harmon ma
jority? or were they held back beyond
the time for returning them, in order
that Tyler might get the commission?
If the returns were purposely held back
by Tylers friends, it is evident that he
ought not to profit by his own wrong.
If the delayed returns have been tam
pered with they, of course, ought to be
thrown out altogether, We are afraid
that under either state of the case, East
Tennessee will have the recent election
with her for some time to come. But.it
would seem to us that the two candi-
dates for the judgeship ought to be
men of such character that they could
decide this matter between them, and
thus prevent a disgraceful squabble.
No honest man would care to hold an
Office to which his opponent was elected
