Democrats Uncertain, Too.
Among the democrats there seems
about as much uncertainty as among
the republicans. 1t is said that all the
democrats in the senate except Nc
Carly and Tilden would vote for the
kleckner bill. These two democrats
are standing firm for the mainten-
ance of the county option law and say
that they will stick to it to the end
But there are some others who would
vote for the kleckner bin who may
not be killing to support the Tomlin-
son bill in any form. For instance
| there are Senators Long and Yarling.
They admit that the kleckner bill is
in conformity with the democratic
platform declaration and for that rea-
son they would probably vote for It.
but they are not telling ony one
whether they will support the Tomlin-
son bill Or not. And the democrats
are not sure about Senator Mcdowell.
He has it in for Bland, and If Bland
supports the Tomlinson bill it is be-
lieved Mcdowell will vote against it.

for the separation of Greene and Sulli-

same time Bland introduced a bill to
ton and Sullivan. Bland succeeded in
getting his bill out Of committee early
and had it passed in hurry. The

McDowell's bill. This made Mcdowell
sore. And now there is no telling what
he will do on the liquor bills.
