ries with il the certainty of election. as
the democrats have more than two-thirds

politics. His nearest opponent was j. c. s.
Blackburn. the incumbent, who represented
Kentucky in the house and senate with
but one intermisson for nearly a quarter
of century. Until two days ago It was
generally believed that there would be a
deadlock in the caucus. When the house

organizing these bodies were held last
night il became apparent that Judge Pawn

nights strength. but received an accession
of two votes
Senator McCreary was Senator Black
burns chief supporter and in this connec-
tion politicians already foresee one Of the
fiercest contests in Kentucky politics in the
future. Democrats expect that McCreary
when his term expires will have to nut
up fight for reelection as Blackburn
did with Governor Beckham as his chief
opponent.
Thomas Fl. Paynter was born in Lewis
county, Kentucky December 49, 1851. He
has served three terms in congress and is
