Where the Anderson Senate Factions Split Over Sells
Greeneville June 24 political scene in the first congressional district shows a split between Sells and anti-Sells factions. The old Selby supporters rally behind Sells, while anti-Sells backers contend with many rival generals. The two leaders cited are Hon. W. Howard of Greenville and Hon. J. D. Cox of Johnson City.
