Eleventh Senatorial Dist. Politics.
Special to The Nashville American.
MEANWHILE, Tenn, Jan. 2S-Much
Interest s manifested in the coming Sen
atorial convention OF this, the Eleventh
District, composed Of the counties of
Franklin, Grundy, Marion and Warren,
which assemblies IN McMinnville on Feb
2s, as it will be the first Senatorial con-
vention of the present campaign. Under
the rotation agreement entered into at Nc
Minnville in 1892, this year Grundy
County is entitled to name the Senator.
but IL seems practically certain that an
effort will be made to break this agree
meut and nominate a dark horse from
either franklin or Warren County, which
are the controlling counties OF the district
1t is said that there is plan on foot to
have both Of these counties send unin-
structed delesa lions to the convention, and
then caucus tog.iber and agree on the
"dsrk horse" However, there are great
many Democrats in both of these counties
who are opposed to breaking the rotation
agreement and who will insist that good
faith and fair play demands that the agree
meut be adhered to until the Senatorship
has been passed around the second time.
Should there be no break in this agree
ment Grundy will name the Senator this
year aud next year Warren's choice will
be the nominee, thus giving each county
the Senator twice since the agreement for
rotation was made. The Grumpy conven-
tion has been called for Feb. 20, to select.
the Senator. Thus far there are but two
candidates announced-Levi V. Woodlee,
who represented the county in the Legisla-
lure Of 1897, and R. NJ. Payne. merchant.
Of Monteagle. 1t is rumored that ex-sen--
ator Hamp Gum, Of Pelham, will also
enter the contest, in which event there will
no doubt be pretty struggle in the county
convention. Woodlee is very popular,
however, aud it is believed that he will be
the winner, and should he be the choice OF
his county The chances for breaking the
rotation plan are regarded as very slim,
since he is very strong in Warren County
and would receive part il not all, Of that

EX-GOV. SAVAGE
URGED LOYALTY

The excursion to Elbe over the Tacoma
Eastern railway yesterday was great
success. It was given by friends Of the
Ferry museum in the interest Of that in-
stitution, aud was patronized by over 700
citizens ot Tacoma.
Among the speakers at the grounds was
ex-Goyernor Savage of Nebraska, who de,
livered an excellent address on loyalty
to state and city, lie urged the people Of
Tacoma to be loyal to their own town and
to do all possible to advance its interests.
He spoke in high terms OF the Ferry nut
scum and said that it wasn't appreciated
at anything like its full worth by the
public. He ended by stating tnat he bad
himself a collection Of rare old coins, some
OF them dating back 1000 years, which
he proposed to turn over to the Ferry
museum az a gift.
The remarkable scenery along the Inns
of the Tacoma Eastern, which has Just
been opened up, was a subject for admira-
ton and wonderment upon the part OF the
excursionists.
Il equals anything to be seen in Col
orado.

VETERAN HEARS
THE LAST CALL

SEATTLE, May 3l.-After marching
with his comrades of the G. A. R. and
decorating the graves of those who fought
with him in the civil war William E.
Wilson died last evening at his home, 500
Tenth avenue north. The strain of the
march and the excitement proved too much
for the old soldier, who was 81 years of age.
He made brave effort to keep up until
he reached his home, but had to be sup
ported between two comrades.
He was taken to his home at 5 o'clock
in the afternoon, and shortly after 6
O'Clock he breathed his last. Death was
caused by a general breaking down, due
to chronic ailment. Until yesterday,
however. he had been strong for man
of his years.
During the Decoration day exercises he
look as much interest in the ceremonies
as any OF the old soldiers. and was as
,ctive as any of them The marching and

Taylor appeared sullen and defiant dur

Pasqualc, on the other hand, was alert

show any indication OF nervousness.

the murderer.
Gray was shot down while walking
