The result ef the election with
reference I'd e Office of Judge OF
the Circuit Court of Appeals is
yet indefnxo with strong indica-
tions of Judge Lambs reelection.
Judge Lamb stated Sunday after
noon that while it had been some
what difficult to secure definite in
formation in many instances, he
felt confident of his election by a
substantial majority.
He stated that the returns in
hand show that he carried most OF
the counties carried by Gov. Pat
terson, losing few, however, and
gaining few on the ,9ther hand.
He said that he carried the greater
part of the Eighth Congressional
District, losing the greater part OF
the Ninth to his opponent, and
that he held majority in the
Western division of the State,
having carried Shelby, Madison
and other large counties. He
feels confident of even stronger
support in Middle Tennessee anC
believes that the full returns from
this and other sections of the State
will guarantee his election by {
handsome majority.

THE lPRIM AIRY

Unoffpial returns from every
county in Tennessee show that
Gov. Malcolm R. Patterson has
been re-nominated as the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor of
Tennessee, defeating Senator E..
W. Carmack in the party primary
by a comparatively small, but deci-
sive majority.
The returns are by no means
complete, many counties sending
in little more than an estimate as
to the majority in the gubernato-
rial contest, but the complete and
official returns will not change the
result.
Reports to the Banner show
that there is probability OF con-
test in some counties as the result
of charges of illegal voting or
OF her allie ged irregularities.
Whether these charges will mate
rialize or not, and what the result
will be should they be prosecuted,
remains to be seen.
There is no way of estimating
accurately the total vote polled in
the State owing to the incomplete
ness of the returns. In many
portions of the State, however,
the vote was not as full as was
originally expected, an exception
ally full vote having been expect
ed.
Some counties are so close that
it will require the official count to
tell the exact result. 1t may be
that the official count in some
counties which are shown on the
face of the returns to be very
close will slightly change the total
figures, but not sufficient change
in the result as announced is prob
able which will affect the renomi-
nation of Gov. Patterson.
The returns as received from all
over the State are given below and
the tabulated vote of Gov. Patter-
son and Senator Carmack in the
convention, together with their
actual or estimated majorities in
each county, are given in tabulated
form in this issue. Nashville Ban

SUPREME JUDGE.
Final Count Will Be Required to
Decide the Race.

The race for the Supreme
Judgeship, it appears, will have
to await the final counting over of
the returns for decision. As
stated elsewhere, Judge Bells
manager claims that Judge Bell is
elected beyond a doubt. 1t is
claimed that Bell will 90 into the
convention with $50 votes instruct

Tulane appear just as confident
that Judge Lansden has won.

the Lansden column. They con-
ceded 500 votes to Bell, the vote
of twenty-five counties. The

Hamlet As A Good Risk. y

Truth is stranger than fiction if
only for the reason that the facts
of life are continually changing,
while fiction is still being written
on the model of $500 years ago.
There is no invincible reason why
Hamlet should have died. A ma
ture like his, given to depressed
self-analysis, is really great pre-
servative of life. 1t restrains a.
man from entrance to quarrel,
from embarking on dangerous yoy-
ages, from specuIating in Wall
Street, from patting strange dogs
on the head, from experimenting
with cheap Italian restaurants.
Hamlet's mode of life should
have brought him ripe old age,
and we are inclined to believe that
if the Elizabethan audiende had
not been SO fond of a stageful of
dead bodies at the final curtain the
author might have easily managed

PORT LOS ANGELES. Sept. s.-Al-
though the extremely high tides have

days.
The former have appeared in mum
pers' and some large catches have been
made. II. M. Good of Ocean Park took
one hundred and four, which weighed
twenty-one pounds, besides landing a
number of trout and ha1ibut.
A small sailboat containing Spence
kinley and two companions put in to-
day from a point about three miles
above Point Dune. It's occupants re-
ported a rough passage, and all were
drenched TO the skin by the heavy seas
which broke over the little vessel
Each asserted with great emphasis
that he would not return until the
seas became calmer.
Last evening the waves registered
several inches higher than the point
indicated for this date by the govern
ments tide table. All indications point
to a severe storm out at sea, and the
present high water is attributed to its
influence.
No perceptlble damage had been done
to the wharf.
An innovation inaugurated last even
ing is the complete lighting of the
wharf from end to end, so that 1t now
becomes a part with the other
wharves, of the general scheme of IL
