4 found that ! had enough and five
or six to spare to pass it over his
veto.
81 knew that if he vetoedit we
would pass it anyhow, every polit-
ical friend of the Governors. knew
| it, and the only way the Governor
could keep from knowing itwas to
shut both ears, both eyes, and his
mouth, and get off Of Capitol Hill.
Then there came fight to delay
the signing Of the bill. Under the
law of the State if the Governor
does not sign bill within certain
number of days, it becomes a law,
but if there is a recess Of the Leg
islature III the meantime that time
does not count.
"It is the usual practice to adj
journ from Friday over to Monday,
and on Tuesday a resolution was
introduced into the House to take a
recess of q month. The temper
ance leaders did not suspect any
thing, and theresolution was pass
ed. 1t came to the Sci ote and
saw immediatly that it was design
led to give the Governor month in
which to make friends enough to
sustain his veto, and in the Senate
we refused to concurin.the resolu-
tion, bat amended it so that the
months recess began on Friday
week instead of on Friday.
ave sent it back to the House
and explained the meaning of the
original resolution, and the tenn
perancemen in the House concur
red in the amendment and the res
olution was passed as amerded.
"This forced the Governor to
sign the bill or have it become
law anyway. On Friday, the last
day of grace, he sent it back to the
Senate with his signature.
"Then he called it vicious legis-
lation, and the most vicious that
was before the Legislature. Now
he calls it wise and takes great
credit to himself for signing it,"

TRIBUTE 10 LEE.

Senator d. w. Carmack was one
of the principal speakers at the
memorial services held at the
Central Baptist Church in Mem
phis Sunday afternoon in honor
of the late General Stephen d.
Lee, who died at his home La Mis-
sississippi last week.
The Senator spoke of his last
meeting with General Lee, vi Ian
the stood together in Richnend
last June at the unveiljng Of 4Ae

which occasion the Senator was
the spok esman for the Daughters
of the Confederacy.
He said that the pressure tof

He spoke of General Lee fidel-

loved and the.fag he had followed
but that he had accepted tne1nev-
liable with that heroism which
suffers and endures misfortune
with patience and fortitude.
General Lee was Christian
hero" Senator CarmaclS said.
"who fought, not from any savage
desire for blood and battle, but
because he loved his country and
hiscause, and was all the greater
IN war because he was d5sciple
of the Prince of Peace.

PENDLETON BILL.

At meeting of the I'VE Nash
willie Carmack Club Monday night
Senator [. l.. Fendleton was the
hrst speaker, says the Tennessean.
Senator Pendleton made his first
public statement during the cam
paign Of the inside history Of the
passage of the Pendleton bill and
the measures resorted to by the
Governor and his friends to kill it,
and later to secure enough votes
to sustain his veto. In referring
to the bill Senator Pendleton said:
"In the first place / made the
mistake of introducing the bill
without consulting the great po-
litical II Am" on Capitol Hill or
his satellites, and anyone that
knows legislative proceedings will
recognize that this was "a grave
breach.
II was Immediately called to the
Office Of Governor Patterson, and
he told me in a very fatherly way
that [ had made mistake, and that
the public was satisfied with the
law as it stood, and asked me to
let the bill die in the committee.
81 respectfully declined to fol-
low his advice, but | found that
the committee was determed toilet
it die anyhow. The chairman of
the committee had all sorts of ex-
cuses for not bringing the bill up
for consideration, and finally | ex-
ercised my right Of calling a bill
out of the committee after they
had failed to act on it aftera lapse
, of time.
r. >"Thus the bill was placed on the
calendar of the Senate for consid-
GRAFTON without a recommends
ton from the committee, one way
or the other.
1The Governor again called me
to his Office and told me that he
considered the bill breach OF
the Democratic platform, and OF
his pledge to the people, end asked
Aae to amend it so that it would
apply to the cities Of ten or twelve
thousand, but would leave Nash
VILE, Memphis, Knoxville, Chat
taauooga and jackson out.
II again declined, and he then
told me that if the bill was passed
lae would have the courage of his
convictions and would veto it. |
was SO convinced that he would
veto il from what he said that as
noon as the bill was passed the
Jnext day / polled the Senate to-
see how the vote would stand on
arerruling or sustaining his veto.

Has Look of a
Bold SWindle

What looks like a bold real estate
swindle of sensational character has
been brought TO attention in the last
few days through pamphlets sent to
East Ely with letters Of inquiry from
people - Salt Lake and other points.
The pamphlets received purport to
represent Butler addition to Ely"
A map accompanying the pamphlet
locates the addition across the rail-
road track from East Ely, the plat
lying east from the Nevada Northern
depot.
Inquiry yesterday failed to locate
any one with knowledge of a Butler
addition Further support for the
gives is found in the fact that illus
'trations which It carries show a
street railway line from the "addi-
ton to Smeiter. which the picture
represents as very close in TO East
Ely.
The pamphlet is literally illustrat-
ed with cuts which have evidently
been worked over from views printed
in Watch Ely Grow the fact of
the confiscation Of these views maxi
ing the proposition look still more
shady.
Those who have received inquiries
here as to the location and value of
the property which il is the aim of
the pamphlet to sell. have made reply
that they know nothing of the ground
and that as far as their knowledge
goes the addition is myth.
