SENATOR-ELECT LUKE LEA.
After wrangle extending back
to the time when the late Sena-
tor Carmack was assassinated, the
democrats of Tennessee finally got
together and elected Luke Lea to
the senate, to succeed James B.
Frazier.
Luke is young, thirty-two, and
will be the baby of the senate, but
he has a "scrapping" record going
back to the time when he discard
ed long dresses. He's big and
strong, which got him into the
limelight some years ago when he
took the gavel away from the
chairman of a state convention
and nominated his own man for
governor. Since then he has ruled
with an iron hand. He owns a
newspaper, and his father-in-law
is the Nashville traction and light
boss.
