Monday afternoon, presided over

mestic girls Of the present gener.
alton in Lexington. With all
our heart we can congratulate

The Board Of Election and
Registration Commissioners for
Madison county have recognized

new" board to the extent Of
going in with them in. the ap-
pointment Of registrars, They
do this it seems for harmony"
and as sensible men" to avoid
the strife, confusion and an
noyance that would result from
having two sets of registrars.
Suppose a half dozen other
lunches of three should spring
up and claim to be election COM
missioners, what would the real
board do? No set of men could
set up q more illegal claim and
according to the latest opinion
Of Chief Justice M. M. Neill Of
the Supreme court, whatever
may be done by the men put in
by the new board will be illegal,
if the Supreme court does
not uphold tee whole nefarious
action Of Stanton, Speaker Of
the House by virtue of indepen-
dent and Republicad votes, and
the none too intelligent tool of
Crump Of Memphis. We don't
know what will happen in the
election line in Lexington and
Henderson county, but we are
sure that no sort Of action will
be taken by the election com.
missioners in recognition of the
fruit Of the attempt to put the
elections of the State into the
hands Of the whisky element.

It is amusing to hear the tools
Of whisky, the whitewashers Of
graft, the supporters of anar chy
and the advocates of an election
law that would disfranchise the
honest man, talking railroads,
railroad rates and the interests
of the people being protected
from the outrages of other corpo-
rations. We would turn the
whole state over to the railroads
before we would trust for a min
ute the bunch of political crooks
that are making the welkin ring
with their protests in behalf of
the people. The people Of Ten
nessee are On to Crump, Stanton

chance to turn them down good
and strong, when the chance
comes in the election Of the next
