Esq. Tom c. Long, of Madison
county, is a candidate for reelection
to the State Senate in the 62nd Gen
eral Assembly, from the 23rd Sena-
torial District composed of the coun-
ties Of Madison, Henderson and Ches-
ter, subject to the August Democrat
ic primary.
Esq. Long, when in Lexington last
Monday, said he was to be judged
more by the things he voted against
than the bills he voted for in the 61st
Legislature. He voted against both
assessment bills and against the Pub
lie Utilities bill. He voted against
the State Constabulary and Police
bill. He voted against extravagant
appropriations and for everything
that might strengthen all good laws,
including prohibition.
Esq. Long says he has no apologies
to make for any vote he cast and that
he is willing to meet any man in dis
cussion of his record in the Legisla-
ture as a member of the Senate. II
He is farmer-a real farmer, not
one by proxy, and believes he knows
the needs and wishes Of the farmers
of Tennessee. We have known ESQ.
Long for many years and have all the
time found him on the moral side of

Arkansas tb-day, for the first time in

governor, aid he not only claims to
have been duly" nominated, but has
paid his fee Of $3.50, to get his name
on the ballotseand has a receipt for
the same from the state treasurer.
The negro is James H. Blount, of

ernor by the negro rump convention
late yesterday, after the negroes had
bolted the regular Republican state
convention because the convention
was "steam rolling them in contests
against "lily white" delegations.
Wallace Townsend, local attorney,
nominated at the white convention,
also paid his fee to get his name as
a candidate for governor on the tick
ct. The two had run a race to be
first, having to wait until the treas
urer's office was open.
1t wilr be up to the secretary Of
state to certify out the names of the
candidates for governor, and it may
be that the secretary will take the
view that Townsend was duly nomi-
mated by the 'regulas" convention,
and that his name should be certifi-
ed out. Both names can not be cer-
titled as both claim to be the regular
Republican nominee"
The secretary sertifies out the
names of the nominees not more than

JESSE LITTLETON IN
THE GOVERNORS RACE.

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 1.-Jesse
NJ. Littleton, formally announced as
Republican candidate for Governor
This announcement does not come as
a surprise, as it has been expected ev-
er since the meeting in this city of
the Republican State convention to
.-select delegates to the National Con-
vention. There was at the time of
the meeting of the convention a good
deal of talk of endorsing Mr. Little
ton as the choice of the party for gov
ernor but leaders of the party did not
deem this the wisest course, so no
mention was made of the matter in
the convention declarations.
Mr.. Littleton makes a simple an
nouncement, that according to impor-
tunities of a great many Republicans
from all parts of the State, he has de-
cided to enter the race for the nomi-
nation, but promises TO make a more
extended statement as to his views on
the issues of the campaign at later
day.
This is Mr.. Littleton's second ad-
venture in a gubernatorial contest.
He was the Republican nominee
against Governor James B. Frazier
in his second race in 1904. Mr.. Lit
tleton's adventure in the race gives
Chattanooga two aspirants, the other
being Major c. R. Evans.-Special to

GOOD NEWS FROM
MADISON COUNTY.

Jackson, Tenn, April 30 twenty
six cases are docketed for hear
ing at the May term Of criminal
court, which convenes in Jackson
Monday morning, with Judge N. X.
Barham, of the Twelfth Judicial Cir
cult, presiding. Impanelling of the
grand and petit juries, delivering Of
the judges charge and setting of
cases not yet listed for hearing will
occupy the first week of the session.
and trial of the cases will begin, Mon
day, May 10.
The docket this year is small, due
to the fact that very few liquor
charges have been imposed. The
number of cases brought in criminal
court has been been constantly
dwindling since, restrictions were
placed on the liquor traffic. Public
drunkenness and crimes which grow
out of this disorder. together with
the Illicit sale Of liquor composed the
greater per cent of the charges pre-
ferred in the court before constitu-
tional prohibition became effective.
Judge Barham and Attorney Gen
eral Anderson, who are now in Sa-
vannah, Tenn, conducting the special
trial for the six negroes implicated in
the murder of Harry Allen, are ex-
pected to return the latter part OF
this week to begin the regular quar-
terly court in this county.
