THE NOMINEE.

The greatest convention ever held in
Tennessee or that ever will be held is
now a matter of history. 1t was great
for many reasons. It was the largest
ever held in point of numbers and was
certainly the most deter mined body of
citizens that ever assembled in Tennes-
see, unless it be their ancestors who
rallied around Sainted Sewer and
Jackson, determined to win or die.
These people were more peaceful in
their purpose, but they had a duty to
perform and were determined to do it
properly.
This immense throng was made pos
sible because "Ham" Patterson had
been subsoiling the politics OF the state,
so to speak, and had stirred it to depths
never before reached. Tennessee has
not known his equal as canvasser
since the days of East Tennessee's IL
lustrious sold Commoner," Andrew
johnson. The force and fearlessnesE
Of his arguments go straight to the
hearts Of the plain people and make
him easily the most convincing speaker
in the state. He has made one of the
most wonderful campaigns in our gu
.be.natorial history. With relentless
machine running at full speed trying
to crush him, he boldly stood upon the
track and tagged it to a full stop and
headed it for the repair shop. This
would have been done only by mar
who stood for something and to thil
only is Patterson's success due. II,
was personally unknown, but he repre-
sented reforms the people are deter
mined to have, and he had no trouble
convincing them that he was very mucl
in earnest and was not using pleasing
pIatitudes to catch puny persons.
1t was a great victory and could hav
been accomplished by no other man il
Tennessee, and in no other name
than that persistently pursued by GU
next governor, Hon. NJ. r. Patterson.

During tie entire campaign Gen.
Patterson never uttered one word of
abuse of Gov Cox, and we defy any
man to produce it. He read from leg
islative reports concerning Cox's rec
ord and confined himself to that IAN
guage. If the Courier got the idea that
Cox was not altogether an angel it was
only by natural inference.

matter of fact, the Greene county

the governor had so much faith in Mr..
Allen, why didn't Sullivan county in

not make such solemn promise to the

a graduate of the Cox school of politics

INSPIRING PICTURE.

When all contested delegations had
been seated an adjournment was had
until 500 p. M, when the convention
assembled and perfected organization.
The great auditorium was filled from
pit to dome, and the assembled thou
sands remained, in defiance of the ex-
treme heat. The picture presented
was an inspiring one. Enthusiasm ran
high. Efforts were made along various
lines of procedure, but the convention
would have none of them, and the spell
binders were howled down. The as
senblage wanted Patterson nominated,
and wanted it right away, and compel
ed the suspension OF all other business.
Hon. Tully Brown, of Nashville, was
sent to the front in response to the
clamors of the multitude, and in a
timely, graceful and well.considered
speech presented the name of Patter-
son, This was seconded and then q
motion was made to make the nomina-
ton by reclamation, and this was carri-
ed with Niagara roar, in which the
ladies joined. One young gentleman,

ond marriage ceremony was the same
kind as the first. Defendant said it
was.
She was afraid to say anything to Capt.
Brown or TO the priest about the first
marriage, because the Porto Rican told
her not TO say anything about it.
! Mr.. Breckons offered to submit the
case without argument, but Mr.. Noar
declined the proposition. Mr. Breckons
then addressed the jury, speaking about
a minute. He said the prosecution
rested the case on proof of duplicate
marriage and on the two marriage Ger
tifcates filed in court.
Mr.. Noar submitted TO the jury that
neither the first marriage nor the sec
ond marriage had been proved He was
about to read authorities, when Mr.
Breckons objected that authorities
could not be read to the jury in Fed
eral court. Mr.. Noar contended that
Mr. Breckons, in the trial. had read
portion of the authority he was about
to cite and that he had right to read
the entire clause that Mr.. Breckons had
only partly quoted.
Judge Dole ruled that counsel should
cite the authority in his request for in
structions. Usually the jury was ex-
cused when long argument on the law
started but that could not be done
every time law point arose for slight
discussion.
Mr.. Noar concluded by arguing on
the defendant s state of intoxication at
the time of the alleged Hilo marriage,
the simplicity of native Hawaiians rel
ative to the laws and the threats of
violence uttered by the Porto Rican to
force defendant to marry him.
Mr.. Breckons replied almost as
briefly as he had opened, emphasizing
the simple proofs of the two marriages.
Judge Dole began charging the jury
precisely at ) O'Clock and concluded
was that it was for the
jury to consider whether the Porto |
Rican s threats were such as destroyed |
the defendant s will power so that she |
went through the marriage ceremony |
without her free consent.
After an absence of about fifteen |
minutes the jury returned a verdict |
finding the defendant guilty.
In the absence of the Interpreter,
John E. Bush, the verdict was inter
preted to defendant by Judge Dole.
Sentence was set for Monday.
Special jurors were excused until
jailed and regular jurors until June Z.
