A Sidelight on the Result in
Tennessee.
(Atlanla 0eorgian.)

The issue In Tennessee as between
Roberts and Taylor was not drawn
strictly on party lines but was fight
over the continuance or repeal Of eer-
tain state tax laws. passed by the last
Tennessee legislature at the instance
Of Gov. Roberts. The essential feature
OF these laws In that property DO al.
sessed and taxes paid on the actual
market value instead OF the 40 to 50
per cent. basis OF valuation that had
prevailed In the past. Thousands OF
business men, farmers and other prop
erty owners who normally vote the
democratic ticket voted for Taylor be-
cause of hts announced opposition
to the Roberts tax laws.
