Can Blackburn be Elected?
It i claimed by the anti Black
bnro tnerobera of the Legislature
that tbey can detent bim for the
United States Senate. To do an
17 democrats most act with the
Bepublicane. It ia esaumed, of
course, that Blackburn will be
tbe regalar caucus Democratic
nominee. A Repuhliettn cannot
be elected, and the Republican
knowing this, it ts claimed, will
vote for John Young Drown, P.
Wat Hardin, or ttlmoat any demo
oral, to defeat Blackburn. The
choice of the Republican HUiong
all tbe Democrat, is anid to be
Senator Lludsay, bat it I fetireii
that Lindsay would attract fewer
Democrats to butt than Broun
or Hardin.

It la positively announced Iub!
Judge Pry or has sent in his resig
nation as a member of the State
Election Commlasion, and that
Congressman Ellis baa stated that
be will resign If Judge Pryor does.
These were tbe two member who
felt conscientiously Impelled to
ward tbe certificates of election
to tbe Republican candidates. The
people, irrespective of party, moat
bouor these gentlemen for dia
charging tbelr doty conscientiously;
and their resignation at ibis
time under the circumstances is
particularly uufortunate should a
' contest be prosecuted. A new
Commission chosen under exist
log conditions could not command

court should bave at this lime.
