NO CONTESTS.

1t is altogether likely that there will
be no contests for the Republican
nomination in the Third, Fourth and
Fights districts. IL Joe Brown, now
representing the Chattanooga Dis
trict, cares to make the race again, it
is improbable that the organization
will stand in his way. His stand on
the Dyer bill made him solid with the
lily white faction Of the party, even
though ii costs him the support of the
colored brethren in the general cleo
ton.
No sane Republican will challenge
the right Of either Representative
Clouse or Scott to make the race
again in their districts. They are
Congressman "by accident" and even
the most optimistic Of Republicans
concede these districts to the Demo
Gratis this year.
Perhaps the knowledge that this is
their only chance to win fame is con-
tributing to the harmonious" ex-
changes Of communications between
them and John w. Overall and his
first lieutenant, James S. Beasley.-

OBION COUNTY SPEAKS OUT.

Obion county has followed the ex-
ample of many others in the State de-
manding tax reform and entire aboli-
ton of the Ubiquitous back tax sys-
TEN. Why not the Democrats of Mad
ison and Henderson counties or all the
people, get together and formulate de-
mands to be complied with by the
next legislature. We can easily send
men to the General Assembly who will
do their part toward the rehabilita-
ton of the State-the Grand Old
Volunteer State which has some OF
the worst laws in the Union. IL we
make no demand we shall have nc
right to kick no matter what may be
handed to US by the legislature and
the back tax machine. Read the Obion
county resolution:
Resolved, that taxation is the
most important function of govern
ment and that the most urgent de-
mand is tax reform; that the system
in Tennessee has been revised without
relief, the revision had been so incim-
plete that instead of balancing the
burden Of taxation, the burden upon
the agricultural classes has been in
creased, while upon the corporations
and financial interests it hsa been re-
duced. We therefore hereby declare
and affirm that the system is a con-
stituticnal deformity and should be
intrusted to the hands Of honest men
in the Legislature, who will make it
their solemn duty to see that taxation
in Tennessee shall be made to bear
equally and alike upon all classes
specifically, that corporations and
moneyed interests shall pay their Just
portion of the taxes.
Resolved, that the institution in
Tennessee known as the back tax or
ganization be forever abolished and
that the county trustees Of the State,
or the counties themselves, have en-
tire jurisdiction as to the collection of
delinquent taxes.
Resolved, that the present fiscal
system in Tennessee is a business
and financial montrosity; that the
practice Of running the State in debt
and issuing bonds without apparent
regard for State credit should be

The more one studies the matter,
the more apparent becomes the fact
that the Democratic race for the Unit
ed States Senate, in Tennessee, is a
tumble, with the outstanding assur-
rance that Hon. T. W. Sims is the
best qualified man in the race-the
best investment for the people to
make in a man to represent them in
an aggregation which has been called
the greatest deliberative body in
the world" Patterson has dropped
out because he has outlived any sort
of following of consequence, Fitzhugh
has found it possible to tell thta he
supported Hooper the first time but
in the later race for Governor voted
for Bob Taylor, when Bob was politi-
Ically resurrected to "save the State"
which he failed to do. Senator X.
D. Mcclellan was the result of politi-
teal accident, in which Lea and Pat
terson were the two other corners of
the triangle. 1t is McKellar's boast
that he stuck to Wilson-but he did
not all the way through, going off at
least one time at tangent that would
not have added to the anti-Wilson at
titude against Shields. And by the
way, Mcclellan pledged his influence
to Hooper the first time, and the best
thing that can be said for Mcclellan is
the fact that he was against Patter-
son. Then comes the "gourd of Right
eousness," "Blue Lawyer" Noah
Cooper, of Nashville, who is either ex-
tremely economical with the truth or
is afflicted with Authorizations, for
he said at Memphis the other day that
he believed he would be nominated and
that he was determined to keep within
the expenditure of $4,000 in primary
campaign. Even Patterson, had he
remained in the race, would have
stood a better chance of nomination
than Cooper. After all this, look at
Mr.. Sims: He served and served we'll
this congressional district for "a years
and during that entire time he never
cast vote that was undemocratic or
against the interests of labor, agri-
culture and the common people gen.
orally. No man ever appealed to him
within the scope of congressional du-
ties that he did not promptly respond
and do the work efficiently. Any and
all statements to the contrary have
simply been false-possibly made on
honest misinformation. Henderson
county ought to give Mr.. Sims an al
most if not solid vote in the primary
and the State ought to give him
voteSDepough to nominate him on the
Bird of August.
