AMENDMENTS NEEDED.

Nashville Banner In view of the
looseness of the conduct of our cleo
lions and the decentralization which
ensues, not to speak of the opportu-
mites which are offered tocorruption,
we should have a law similar to that
Of Ohio, which provides that the
crowds shall keep 100 feet away from
the polls, and that voters shall ap-
prOach the ballot box singly and de-
post their votes free from any elbow
ing or interference by the election
striker. Such law would put a
stop to much of the vote buying, for
the man who would sell his vote is
not to'be trusted out of arms reach
of the buyer.
ONLY A SLICK REPUBLICAN TRICK.
Lynchburg Falcon: Every manu-
facturer who shuts down or fails in
business now assigns it to the tariff
agitation and the prospects that a re-
form measure is to pass Congress
soon. But be it known that every
man who makes such excuses for shut
downs are Republicans who adopt
such schemes to influence their en-
ployees to work and vote for their
ticket. Generally speaking, those
who work in the manufactures de-
pend on their wages to keep the
wolf from the door, and to throw
them out of employment for purely
political purposes is simply in keep
ing with the principle that prompts
the advocacy of our present iniqutous
system of taxation. Those engaged
in manufacturing can easily afford to
lose few months every four years
if by so doing they can still keep Sc
cure from competition by the protec-
ton they now receive.

A MAJORITY of the country
newspapers of the State seem to be
against the Nashville dailies on the
question of abandoning the custom of
joint canvass. A joint canvass will
stir up more enthusiasm than any
amount of speech publishing in the
newspapers possibly can. Enthusi-
asm brings voters to the polls, and
that is what we need this year. $50

WARNING TO M'CARRoN.
AS TO THE PROPERTIES.

Nashville Banner: Some of Senator
Harris's supporters are criticising Col.
John H. Savage for opposing his re-
election. Col. Savage can with more
propriety oppose Harrison on the
stump than state elector can sup
port him and fill his appointments
for him.

THE Democrats of Putnam county
held a convention at COokeville last
Tuesday and appointed delegates to
the Senatorial Convention which
meets at Smithville next Wednes-
day. They instructed for D. L. Dow,
of Putnam county, for State Senator.
Mr.. Dow has served one term in the
lower house, and is said to be ster-
ling Democrat of fine ability. Put
nam county is clearly entitled to the
Senator this time, and if she presents
a good man he should receive the
nomination.

SOUTHERN STANDARD McNINNVILLE. DEMONSTRATIONS

OUR exchanges are figuring up on
Harris and Atkins, and it appears
that both of these gentlemen have
been in Office for twenty-five years
or more and have received from the
peoples treasury somewhere in the
neighborhocd of 100000 each. 1t
would appear from this that their
pockets, as well as their cups of
ambition, have been generously filled.

THE two little egotistical cusses
who edit the Obion Democrat
imagine that they are the head and
shoulders of the Democratic party of
the State. Their toploftical style of
touching up men and measures not
exactly in line with their narrow
views, and the Pharisaical air of
superiority which they assume, are
really amusing at times. If the
Democratic party Of Tennessee only
embraced those who think with the
aforesaid two self-constituted pinks
Of political perfection, it would be a
very insignificant affair. The "holier
than thou" racket has become rather
stale, and it is about time for the
Democrat to swing around on
another tack. -s

In THE primary election held in

lows: Richardson 1861, Bright 1908,
Tolley 1880. This is certainly very
flattering expression of the high es-
TEEN in which Mr.. Richardson is
held by his constituency. 1t is rough

The mail facil ties between
here and Boise forcibly reminds
one of the impatient passenger who
was continually growing to the
conductor because the train ran so
slow. The conductor at last be-
came angry and gave the ''kicker"
his opinion of him in no very COM
plimentary terms, and at the same
time told him if he did not like
the way the train was run, he
had perfect liberty to get off and
walk. The Kicker" replied that
he would most cheerfully do so but
for the fact that his wife did not ex-
pect him until the train arrived,
and he did not care to hang around
the depot two or three hours.
