The Independent Democrats elected their judicial tickets in Tennessee Thursday in one of the most ercltiug an hard fought political contents eeer known in the State. Following are the successful tickets: Judges of the Supreme Court?ffastern division, John K. Shields. Middle division, D. L. Dausden, Afalt M. Nell. State-at-large W. l>. Beard, Grafton Green. Judges of the Court of Civil Appeals. eastern division, II. V. Hughes. <Middle| division, Joseph C. liiggius, S. F. Wilson. State-at-iarge. Frank P. Hall, Juo M. Taylor. The Independent headquarters al ' Nashville claims that the majority will .opproxiuirtte 40,000 votes. The regular Democrats, whose ticket was defeated, claim these figures will he cut by 10,000 or lf?,000 votes, and their leaders allege fraud in uiany places.' They also charge that they were denied representation at the poll* by the election commissioners, dominated by the Independent faction. The latter represent, in a large measure, the State-wide prohibition element of the Democratic party, which has been vigorously opposing Governor Patterson since his memorable campaign with the late Ex-Sen?lor HI. *W. Oarmack for the Gubernatorial nomination. " U.. 'lri.lnrl cfr^neth when I t i CV ilta uvivivu w- ^ ? 4lie State committee ordered a blanket primary for nomination of both judicial and State officers. Thr#?e <iiem hers of the Supreme Court, Chief Justice Heard and Justices Meal and Shields, and Judges Wilson and Taylor, of the Court of Civil Appeals, refused to enter the primary, and the Independent movement was on. Judges McAlister and Bali, of tlu Supreme Court, entered the primarj * ?and were on the regular ticket Judge Barton, of the Court of Civi Appeals, was also a nominee for Su ftretne Court Justice.

KLshbuiue Must Serve Twenty Years in the State Penitentiary. For the killing of C. P. FlshImrne, a dispensary countable at Itav nel station, in Colleton county, J. W. Messervy must serve 20 years in the State penitentiary. The supreme court Thursday rendered a decision in which the verdict of the Colleton county court was affirmed. This means that Messervy will have to spend practically the remainder of his days in the State penitentiary. Messervy is a man over 4 0 years of age and a cripple. He has l?een at the State penitentiary since his conviction. The opinion is by Chief Justice Jones and deals at lengtn wmi r.ue case and the testimony presented at the trial. The crime took place on the evening of July 6 last year. C. P. Kishburne. who was employed as a county dispensary constable, was killed while trying to arrest Messervy and seize some alcohol, a mule and wagon. The shipment had just been received by Messervy at the station at Ravenel. It was claimed that the alchohol had been purchased by his wife, L. W. Messervy, from a firm in Cincinnati. Messervy was tried at the November term of court for Colleton county last year and was found guilty of manslaughter. He was sentenced to 20 years in the State penitentiary by the late J adze Dantzler. At the (i/l a f/,r :? Iit'W inai it iuuuuu t> mi.? v - ? . trial, which was refused. I#ater ail appeal was taken to the supreme court. Soon after the trial Messervy was brought to the penitentiary tor safe-keeping. Of general interest in the appeal of the case to the supreme court was the exception affecting the CareyCJothran act. It was the contention of the defense that the dispensary had been abolished and that it was necessary for the governor to appoint! constables for the enforcement of 1 the act. C. I*. Fishburne had been commissioned by Gov. Ansel. He hull nr?t fiiort tits bond. The position ' was taken by the State that it was " only necessary to show that Fish' hurtle had been commissioned. 1 AGAINST Old) BOS8KS. * > f Farmers of the Northwest Will Not * lie Foloed. 1 "Uncle .loe Cannon, speaker of the 3 house of representatives; United ' States Senator Aldrich and other relf ics of political bossism have few friends among the farmers of the g North west,' said K.

Cannon policies and "stand-patism ' were repudiated by the Republicans of Kansas Wednesday. Seven out of eight insurgent Congressmen have bee-u nominated in spite of everything the Congressional organization at Washington and I the regulars in Kansas could do to . save their men. Their majorities I run from 500 to 3,500. Of the six stand-pat Congressmen ' who were seeking renomination, only one is sure of having his name on the I ticket this fall. In the third dls! trict, P. P. Campbell defeated Ar! thin Cranston, insurgent. In the first district the race is close, but late returns indicate that T. A. McNeil, insurgent, has won over Representative D. R. Anthony, a strong adherent. Representative William A. Calderhead, in the fifth, leader of the standpaters, was defeated by about 2,0 00 votes. Victor Murdock and K. II. Madison, insurgent leaders, had no opposition, ana will he returned to Congress. W. R. Stubbs, for governor, has been renominate with a majority over Thomas Wagstaff, of about 20,000 of 2,000 more than he had over Leland two years ago. Stubbs Is an Insurgent, Wagstaff a regular. Speaker Cannon made several speeches in Kansas in behalf of the Regular Republicans, but It seem* that he Old more harm than good, as nearly all for whom he spoke were defeated. ?

Why They Don't Marry. | a Many reasons are given why the ^ marriage rate has fallen off so great t> ly in recent years and why people' a: marry later in life. Most of the reasons have more or }eep truth in them. 04 but one of the'morft common is the fact that far too many young p-#v. B1 pie want to begin married life where ** their parents left ofT. That is, they want at the beginning of married life all the comforts, luxuries and advantages their parents secured of- h ter years of experience and work. t< and because they cannot they defer 4 marriage and ultimately abandon the b 1 thought.
