uWe hear some talk about certain 'pr omiscs
that Col. Ashley is said to have made, that he
would not offer for recollection to the Senate of
the United States, which promises are said 10 have
been given to Gov Yell and one or two others
Whether or no they were made is not for US to
determine; but we do not think tha, such rumors
have ough. to do with the present contest for the
Senate. Who gave Gov. Yell, or any other, pow.
er TO receive such promise! Is he, or any sim
gle individual, the keeper Of the democratic faith!
Is he TO say who and who shall nos run for the
Senate! Are The people TO have ':;Nn chosen for
Senator and no, ehooso themselves! Surely the
people IAN choose whom they will, and the re.
marks made about tho .promises" by the cores.
rondents of the Banner, are not so made through
any desire that they have about the sacredness of
promise, but to endeavor to show thatCol. Ash.
Icy is running against Gov. Yell; such an attempt
is, however, utterly futile, and runs contraw Sc
to the entire wishes Of the people.
