HAYNES MENTIONED TO
SUCCEED JUDGE SHIELDS

Bristol, Tenn, Jan. 24.--Chancellor
Hal I'll. Haynes of this city seems to
be the one thought OF the upper East
Tennessee in connection with the su-
preme court vacancy occasioned by the
elction of Judge John .IE'Shields to the
United States senate Chancellor
Haynes is recognized as one of the
abiest lawyers and jurists in the state.
His temperamenf and lhissalalities asa
jurist and a man emihentIy fit him for
a Eplaee on tine supreme court bench.
Not only is his fitness recognized
among his acquaintances In this end of
the State, butfn eSeryldiJision of the
state well informed men recognize I'm
the distinguished East Tennessean,a
man who would meet every require
ment of position on the supreme
bench. lie is not a politicion and has
never been an Office seeker, having pre-
ferred TO follow his profession as alaw-
yer, but now that he has for number

of years mad upon his shoulders the
burdensome duties of one of the largest
chancery divisions in the state, many
persons in this end of the state feel
that he is all the more entitled to the
appointment to succeed Judge Shields.
Chancellor Haynes is in Florida at
presentshaving gone there to temperate
after an illness of grip. His friends
here know nothing about how he may
viewthe matter of position on thes SUI
preme court bench, but his appoint
ment would give satisfaction 10 men of
all parties. That Gov. Hooper could
not make more fitting selection isIhe
view taken here. IT would be viewed
by men of all parties and actions in
this end OF the state, not as political
appointment, but as looking to the
highest and,best possible service to the
people Of the state; for Chancellor
Haynes ideals as reflected in his every
day life are above the standard Of pro-
fessiai;sii politics.

GEN. GATES HIS OPPONENT
Attorney General Was Thrown
Into the Race Without His
Consent and He Came Within
Two Votes of Election Before
a Series of Changes Turned
the Tide.

After battle which viii long be re-
membered, John X, Shields chief
justice of the supreme court Of Tennes-
see was elected United States senator
for the term beginning March 4, 1913,
by fusion OF regular Democrats, Re-
pablicans and Independents.
On the seventh and final ballot Judge
Shields was opposed by Charles T..
Gates, Jr. encouragement of The state,
who was entered in the race by the In
dependent democrates, the majority of
the republicans and the Shelby County
delegation. General Gates final vote
was 81.
The final vote, however, does not
show the closeless Of the race between
The candidates, or express the intense
interest that was shown in the contest.
Albert E. Hill Of Davidson county was
absent on account of illness. making
the number necessary 10 choice IS,

call, and when the clerk ended the call
of the house The vote. as it stood was
exactly 66, enough to eject Judge
Shields, while General Gates had 81.
There were many persons in the house,
including members, however, who
thought that the vote AS it stood
was tie, and who were calling for
the deciding vote.
However, in this situation, Repre-
sentative Parkes of Fayette county,
Representative Shaw Of Haywood and
Senator Maxwell of Haywood, who
had voted for General Gates on call,
changed their votes to Judge Shields
and removed all doubt of his election.
Judge Shields was officially notified
Of his election by committee, as soon
as the result was announced, and was
escorted from the Maxwell House 10
the capitol, where he addressed the
joint convention, expressing his ap-
probation 10 those who, had support
ed him, and promising that he would
not be found an migrate.
The breaking of the deadlock was,
In one way, reminiscent of the break
ing of another senatorial deadlock, oc-
curing on the second anniversary of
the election of Senator Luke Lea, who
was chosen on January %, 1911, on
the ballot.
In view of the disturbed condition
Of the legislative affairs il is difficult
to classify the vote received by the
candidates. Judge Shields received
the vote of all strictly regular demo-
Gratis, on Shelby county member, eight
republicans, and nine who voted with
the independents on organizations of
the houses. OF these nine, however,
not all may be considered to be inde-
pendent democrats, as they do not
participate in the independent meet
ings.
General Gates vote was ascomposed of
26 independent democrats. "a republic
cans, 10 members of the Shelby dele
CATION, and one member who voted

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 2T.--Just be-
fore noon today Gov. Ben w. Hooper
was inaugurated for his Ccond term on
Office before an audience which almost
filed the Ryinan auditorium. His
speech was a mastery effort and re-
ceived much applause throughout.
He was administered the oath Of Of
flee by Chief Justice John X. Shields,
Speaker Newton IL. White presided
and introduced the governor and Rev.
J. NJ. Anderson offered theinvocation
The governor was accompanied TO
the auditorium by his staff and menu
berS of the reception committee, also
the Judge of the appellate courts, mem-
bers of the railroad commission, the
adjutant- general and his staff, together
with Mrs. Hooper and several ladies.
The members OF the Legislature bad
previously arrived in body and had
been seated on the platform. All the
female schools of the city had sections
of reserved seats for them. The In
dustral school band and the first regi-
mcnt band offered music for the occa-
sion. Company L was on duty at the
auditorium looking after the seating
arrangements.
At the conclusion ofithe inaugural
address the governor held a great re-
ceplion on the stage. 1t seemed that
every one in the house pressed forward
to shake hands.
In his address the governor said in
part: @
"l.adies and Gentlenen:--it Is not
necessary on this occasion toenter into

partisan does not coincide with the
sober though or the sincere estimate pI

OF furnishing water to the Southern
railway at > cents per thousand gallons
and II the railroad accepts the PROPOSE,
ton as it now seems likely the town
will have established good source of
revenue. A letter from Mr.. Simpson
was read lin which he stated that if the
water was taken at Newport, that the
tanks would be abandoned at Bridge
port and Leadvale which would mean
that every tain passing through New
port would take water here.
The fiat rate the question when was
aired considerable during the recent
campaign, came up while The alder

Manufacturers, whether in the cor
poration or not, will be entitled to the
manufacturer rate. This subject
brought forth considerable discussion,
Houston Fancher contending that the
demanufacturersh should becharged
more than the manufacturer OH the in
side. The other aldermen argued that
revenue was the thing sought, and that
the manufactures should be catered to,
in order to make him cease pumping
his water and turn his money into the
corporation treasury. The rate for
parties living outside OF the corpora
ton was held the same as the old board
had fixed il, namely one and a'fourth
times theinside rate. There was some
consideration about raising this rate;
but it was finally decided to make no
charge. - ~
Engineer Bullock. sent in a letter
which advised againsta tap on the flow
line under any circumstances.
The report of the secretary of the
school board was received and the
board made request that he appear
and make some explanations in per-
son.
A proposition TO ask the legislature
TO enable the corporation to issue bonds
for further water extensions and other
improvements was briefly discussed.

Deafness Cannot Re Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed CON
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed You have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
