Is attempting to get at the bottom of the

It Is also pointed out that the Moyer and
Tettlbone cases depend to s great extent on
the outcome of the trial of Senator Borah
Should he be convicted the prosecution will
have left no attorney of caliber equal to

Witnesses will be introduced this week to

Issue of Campaign For
Governor. : -
FORMER GOVERNOR COX
DECLARES FOR CARMACK.
Special to Tho Georgian.
Bristol, Tenn., Sept. 30.—The
nouncement of Carmack for governor
of Tennessee Is creating much Interest
In East Tennessee, where the Memphis
man Is held In high esteem. Former
Governor John I. Cox, In speaking of
Mr. Carmack’^ announcement, declared
that the demand was so strong that
Mr. Carmack could not resist It. al
though he had his heart set on prlvato
enterprise. The ex-governor thinks
there can be no doubt of the success of
Mr, Carmack. Tho friends of Governor
Patterson are deeply concerned at the
announcement.
Special to The Georgian.
Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 30.—The dis
patch from Columbia, Tenn., Saturday
bearing news of the announcement of
Hon. E. W. Carmack, for the Demo
cratic nomination for governor to suc
ceed Governor Malcolm R. Patterson. Is
the one topic of discussion In political
circles here. The administration
Governor Patterson has proven very
unpopular In some section* of the state,
and there was a strong faction that op.
posed him for the nomination. To
add to the development* of the past Tew
months. Senator Bob Taylor, who de
feated Carmack for the senate In tho
bitter campaign a year ago. recently
met the "auburn-haired statesman' at
Columbia In a friendly chat, and It lb
believed that Taylor, who supported
Patterson in the last campaign, will
now support Carmack.
The contest will revive nn old politi
cal and personal feud. Several year*
ugo ex-Senator Carmack was opposing
for a seat In congress Hon. Joslah Pat
terson. father of the present governor.
One night during a Joint debate In that
city the lie was passed on the stump
and the two contestants mixed up In
the presence of their supporters. The
result of the election wa* a victory for
Carmack. He was re-elected for r
second term In congress. Another ren.
ture Is that Carmack Is recognized as
the leader of the prohibition clement In
Tennessee. Governor Patterson Is be
lieved to be In favor of the whisky ele
ment.
