THE LAMB" STILL LIVES.
Wolf Feast Over the Mountain Has Been
Very Disappointing.

The two weeks of campaigning in
Middle Tennessee between Gov. Pat
terson and ex-senator Carmack closed
with debate Thursday at CoOkeville.
When the distinguished speakers came
over the mountains it was loudly pro-
claimed by Senator Carmack's friends
that he had overwhelmed his adversary
in the eastern division, and would next
put him to rout in the democratic
strongholds. But the wolf feast over
the mountains had really been very dis
appointing to those who we're about the
table, and IN the middle section the
wolf has had to make heroic effort to
save himself from being slaughtered by
the lamb. In fact, the wolf has been
whipped from stump to stump, from
position to position, until there is prac-
tically little of him left.
Patterson, known to his intimates as
whirlwind speaker, logical debater,
and master of investive and sarcasm,
has met his adversary on his chosen
ground and completely routed him. On
every question dividing them the gov.
ernor has had the advantage. On the
only issue, if it can be called an issue,
between them, that of statewide prohi
bition, the democratic candidate has
triumphed over the prohibition leader.
From Gallatin to Cookeville, through
Wilson and Smith, from the bluegrass
to the mountains, the "Little Giant
has marched in triumph, leaving in his
wake the wrecked hopes of his enemies
and the enemies Of democracy.
At Gallatin the opponents of democ.
racy saw their champion crowded and
confused, at Lebanon the sledgehsm.
mer blows had telling effect, at Car
thage, the home of as pure democracy
as ever graced the state, the white easi.
ly triumphed over the red, and al
Oookeville, where the sturdy yeomanry
of the mountain section had gathered
the Patterson followers gave theil
champion a welcome not to be forgot
ten in this generation.
AS it was two years ago, Patterson
clinches it wherever he speaks, and hi
friends now enthusiastically claim hi
denomination by an overwhelming ma
jority. They say he will not only hsv'
a majority of the votes in the conven
tion, but that his popular majority will
be not less than $4,000 Nashville

CamDaign Shots.

If ever prohibition is adopted in Ten
nessee the Rev. E. E. Folk will have to
go to work for his living.
The prohibitionists had better strap
Carmack down, or he will be jumping
back into the local option reservation.
OarmaCk doesn't seem to be aware of
the fact that the four-mile law has al
ready been extended throughout the
state.
If some of these howling reformers
had their own way they wouldn't allow
echoolhouse within four miles of a
saloon.
The New York Herald suggests a
campaign of cheerfulness; but in this
state Gloomy Ned fears the worst if
Happy Ham is elected
1t looks as if some of the prohibition
champions did not want to have prohi-
bition adopted. They would be with
out an occupation in that event.
Some Merry Andrew has suggested
that Gov. Patterson is ready to aban-
don the joint debate. In what race he
ever made, did the governor take the
role of quitter?
Dyer county has just thrown the har-
poon into a candidate who was one OF
the bitterest opponents Gov. Patterson
had in the last legislature. He may gel
over it, but he'll never look the same =

sympathy with it. Valuable and inter
esting programs are being prepared for
both meetings, and it is expected that
the attendance will be very large.
AT the meeting of the Middle Ten.
nessee Educational Association at
Nashville few weeks ago more than q
thousand teachers were present. East
Tennessee should send at least as many
to this meeting at Knoxville,
The association is not for public
school teachers alone, but for all teach
ers, whether in public or private, city
or country schools or in colleges and
universities, and also for all school Of,
fcers and all others interested in edu-
cation and the improvement of educa-
tional facilities. All are cordially in
vited and urged to attend and take
part in the discussions and other pro-
ceedings of the meeting. The railroads
have been asked to make a special rate
for the meetings and it is expected that
the rate will be made.

cOunJles Oe roaseeSsed,
1t is alleged by Attorney Hudson that
the commission has for long while &C.
cepted without question the statements
of the railway regarding the valuation
of its property, its earnings and mile
age and in particular claims that in
Greene, Hamblen, Jefferson, Washing.
ton aud Claiborne counties the assess
ment of railroad property has been
made on such information.
1t is claimed these statements as to
valuation are not as full as should be
procured and the petition therefore
asks another assessment in these coun.
ties.
Attorney Hudson also has presented
petition from Campbell and Hamilton
counties, requesting the commission to
consider again the Knoxville and Ohio
railroad case.

Is Now a-GObbling Himself.

To the Editor of The American:
Mr.. Carmack has been of late "fabri-
eating" prohibition record for himself
by quoting some ancient sayings of his.
He judiciously left out part of what
he said back in 1892 about prohibition.
lists. In an editorial of February 90,
1899, from the Commercial-Appeal, the
following is quoted:
GAS motley a crew as ever trod the
deck of privateer ship or huddled to-
gether in the cave of Adullam will as
semble today at st. Louis. Represen-
tatives of the peoples party, democrat
republicans, republicans. greemback-
ers, knights of labor, prohibitionists,
delegates from the citizens alliance,
from the colored alliance, and all the
political vagrsnts and tramp patriots of
the country will be on hand intent on
perfecting arrangements for q saving
of the country and gobbling of the
offices thereof" "
In another editorial of April II, 1899,
he writes of his disgust of the prohibi.
tionists in politics, as follows: "The
follies and crankisms OF prohibition
lists "
Writing further OF his so-called
"motley crew" he said in an editorial
of July II, 1892:
''The peoples party was invented for
the especial accommodation of all the
misplaced and partyless patriots of the
country; the stragglers and deserterc
of real, live, sure enough parties. II
is a sort OF cave of Adullam for all cue
rulous and unsatisfed politicians

swear off their wrath in ornate and pic

will be cleaner, and the political atmos
phere will be cleaner, after all the JohE
McDowells have been flushed out o
the CUTTERS"
Mr.. Carmack gives women in politio
a passing lick in the following editoria
Of February 26, 1899:
"The Indianapolis convention defer
