sims WILL RUN
FOR SENATE
Opposition to Tennessee's "Ba-
by" Senator Is An
nounced.

Washington, July ga veteran
of the House will oppose the Baby"
of the Senate in Tennessee. Repre-
sentative T. w. Sims, of the Eighth
district announced today that he will
seek the Democratic senatorial nom
ination against Luke Lea. Mr.. Sims
has been in the House eight years,
and Mr.. Lea will complete his first
senatorial term in 1917.
In his announcement, Mr.. Sims
aroused Senator Lea of persistent alb
senteeism and of continual opera
ton in local Tennessee politics when
great matters of State demanded the
attention of the Senate. He stated
that Mr.. Lea was elected by fusion
combination over Benton McMillin
and that he had never known of
an instance where the immediate
beneficiary of party disruption and
defeat has been rewarded by subse-
quent party approval and indorse-
ment."
Mr.. Lea, says the statement, has
been absent from half the rollcalls
dtring his time in the Senate, $50 as
to establish beyond doubt absolute
and willful neglect of duty. Indeed,
he is the first Senator from Tennessee
against whom a compulsory progress
of the Senate had to be issued in or
der to compel his attendance-and
that, too, when an Administration
measure of the greatest Importance
was the unfinished business of the
Senate"
