confines the most exciting. The
campaign for state auditor has beel
assuming Il somewhat bitter aspect
and charge and counter-charge have
hcen freely banded by Sheriff Oliver
didates who have been unable to find
any scandal in the private fe Or pub
lie rccnel of their opponents are find
ing it iad TO get hearing in the
Tublic prints. The newspapers want
excitement as the chief ingredient Of
their pol tics. Sulphnrous adjectivea
and emphatic iterations of al charge
are the things which make politics
worth rcading-and there has been
plenty Of them during the last two
months There have been no joint
discussions by any OF the candidates
below ;he office Of governor. The
campaign g being conducted through
the columns of the newspapers, and
by the medium Of circulars and PAM
phlets and personal letters. Hundreds

proven the greatest dissemination OF

plants.
The expense of campaign for

possible to tell? The law provides
that there are certain expenses that
are not to be reported, and these
exempted expenses probably cover tho
greater part Of a budget Then, toe.
il is well knowa that all the money
spent n the interest Of candidates
lace is not his own. His friends
come to his assisi stance with contribu.
tons, purely through friendship and
patriotism, of course. and no man can
be expected to know what his friends
spend in his behalf.
But after all, it is doubtful # this
campaign differs in any material re-
spect from those that have gone be-
fore. There are points Of similarity
in all, coed, bad and indifferent--and
If the truth were told, probably no
candidate would be nearly SO black MS

Marshall Issues Chal-
len8e to Hughes

Richmond, Va, Sep.. g. Vice
President Marshall, in an address
here tonight, issued a challenge to
Charles E. Hughes, the republic can
didate for President, who spoke here
last night, to say what he would do
under the same conditions that
confronted the democratic admins
tration. He also asserted that Mr..
Hughes election would mean con-
troll Of the government by what he
called the "stand-patters." He said:
The election Of Mr.. Hughes will
put the government in control Of
the 'stand-patters' for the rule Of
seniority in the senate will confer
the important chairmanships Of the
senate committees upon such men
as Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania,
Reed Smoot Of Utah, Warren of
Wyo:and Lodge, Of Massachusetts. :"
The vice-president denied that
labor had injured the. country in
pressing the passage Of the eight
hour BILL
Every bit Of legislation passed
by any congress in response to the
demands Of labor had been whole
some and beneficial legislation.
But the eight-hour law is not the
vital or paramount issue in this
campaign, despite the efforts Of Can
didate Hughes to make it So" he
said. The real issue is whether
the President Of the United States
can continue so to handle our for
eign relations as to keep our cOun-
try at peace with honor"
The vice-president challenged the
republicans to say they would in.
tervene in Mexico. He criticized
Mr.. Hughes for finding fault" with
the President and his acts without
saying what he would have done
under the same circumstances Of
what he will do, if elected.

Suit Filed Involving
Southern Hotel.

Jackson, Tenn, Sept. 21.-Joseph
H. Day, widower Of the late Mrs
Matte Burgess Day, who owned
the Southern Hotel and other prop
erty valued at 100000 in this city,
has filed a bill in chancery court
attacking the validity Of the will in
in which the property was bequeath
ed to R. L. Burgess, brother of Mrs
Day, present manager of the South
ern Hotel, R. S. Rochelle, Mrs. Aileen
Rafalsky and husband, of Louisville,
KY, Mrs. Florence Berge and hus-
band of Texas. The bill also seeks
to have declared void a quit claim
deed given the day following the
death of his wife, which he claims
was made while he was under the
influence Of drug to which he
was addicted. No contest is made
of that portion of the will which
gives money to church and charities
nor personal property bequeathed
to the defendants. The contest, Is
made on an inchoate tenancy by
courtesy Of all realty owned by
his wife through the death of a two
and a half year old son, who was
born in 1870, but was not mention
ed in the will.--Jackson special to
Commercial Appeal.
One Of the greatest marks Of
goodness in the life of the splendid
woman, who built up the Southern
Hotel, died almost prematurely and
bequeathed as suited her the prop
erty her own industry and good
management had accumulated, was
said to be her care for her husband.
The old fellow has doubtless been
persuaded into the lawsuit.
