Fitzpatrick for Governor.
tries.

Everything at this distance from the
next state convention points to the
nomination of Hon. Morgan 9. Fitz-
patrick for governor. From every quar-
ter of the state come the highest en-
comiums for Trousdale's brilliant and
splendid representative. The Journal
of Labor of the current week contains
the following, under the heading,
"Will be the Next Governor of the
State of Tennessee :"
From the expressions from the men,
bers of the legislature and state officials
Hon. Morgan @. Fitzpatrick, speaker
Of the house, will be the next governor
of the State of Tennessee. Not only are
members of the legislature and state
officials unanimous in their choice for
Fitzpatrick, but large number of peo-
pie from all parts of the state are clam
oring for him at this early date, the cleo
ton being nearly two years off. This is
as it should be. Morgan Fitzpatrick
was elected speaker in opposition to the
ring, which has usually controlled
legislatures in this state for a number
of years, and true the the trust that was
imposed upon him, he never faltered
for moment, and as testimonial to
the fairness to all sides the gifts at the
close of the session from the democrats,
republicans and populites will bear evil
dence. 1t is unnecessary for us to say
that he is staunch friend to the work
ing people, for mere reference to the
House Journal will show his name re-
corded for the Child Labor bill, Fellow
Servants bill, the Union Label bill, the
bill to facilitate the collection of statis-
tics in the Bureau of Labor office, the
Railroad Commission bill the Antitrust
bill, and was ready to oppose the repeal
of the BARRIERS Sunday closing law if
it had come to vote. He was also a
strong advocate of the abolition of the
back tax attorney system, which has
been curse to the state since its incip-
ency. At the beginning of the session
Mr.. Fitzpatrick placed Hon. J. A.
Orchi, representative from Shelby coun-
ty and member of the cigarmakers'
union, at the helm of the labor commit
tee and each member selected was put
ON the committee with the understand
ing that he must deal fairly and Justly
with all measures, and as it was a very
important committee they must attend
the meetings and take an interest in its
welfare.
Morgan G, Fitzpatrick is a plain
man. He is fair, honest and has the
courage to do his duty, and, like VIM.
J. Bryan, he believes that the corpora
tions and the combined wealth of the
multimillionaires have ruled this coun.

The talk of Senators on Senator AL
lens resolution asking Mr.. Mckinley
not to pardon Chapman, the broker
who was sentenced to a months i'm
prisonment for refusing to tell the
names of Senators who specialized in
sugar stock, resulted in a change of
programme. The sugar trust, as well
as its friends in the Senate become
thoroughly alarmed and decided that
Chapman should serve his term in jail,
helping thereby to hush the talk about
anew sugar investigation in the Senate.
The members of the sugar trust are I'M
der the same sort of indictment will

Jail by legal methods. The past week
has been one in other respects for the
sugar trust. 1t has been demonstrated
that the sugar schedule, which the
trust had attached to the DINGHY tariff
bill cannot possibly be gotten through
the Senate. not to mention the House.
These things have resulted in greater
activity on the part of the big sugar
trust lobby and money will be spent
freer than ever to secure schedule in
the tariff bill, as it finally passes, that
will be fairly satisfactory to the trust

Senator Deboe, of KY, seems to be
really greatful to DR.. Hunter for having
given way for him and then helped
him to get elected to the Senate.
Knowing that DR.. Hunters contest for
seat in the House had nothing more
substantial to stand upon than the par
tisanship of a majority of the House,
Mr.. Duboe has secured the promise OF
a good appointment for Hunter from
Mr.. Mckinley, and still further to
show his gratitude, he worked the Ken
lucky contingent of republican office
holders and would-be office holders fol
contributions to the extent of 1910 and
invested the money in two diamond
studded watches which were duly pre-.
scented to DIR. Hunter and his wife. Oh
course it is nobody's business if some
of the contributors to the watch fund
are little behindhand with their board
bills. They have helped Deboe pay q
part of his debt of gratitude.

Schools Close.

The public schools closed yesterday
after fairly successful year. A great
many patrons were dissatisfied with the
progress made, but on the whole the
schools have been very good and the
children made creditable advancement.
The various departments closed with
out any public entertainment except
those of the musical department and
the graduating class.
Miss Kate helms, the music teacher,
gave an exhibition of her pupils from
the various schools at the Martha
Wilder school building yesterday morn
ing. 1t was very pleasant entertain
ment indeed, as all the numbers were
filled by sweet little girls. Miss helms
is most efficient teacher and her work
shows for itself. She has been here
for two years and the patrons and pupils
alike are delighted with her high class
work and charming personality. No
teacher of music has ever given such
universal satisfaction as Miss helms,
and it is to be hoped she will fulfill her
promise to occupy her position for an
other year.

The Secrecy Denied.

Mr.. Wise said that nothing in years
had so undermined and unsettled
values as this action. The work was
ali done in secret. Some of the best
lawyers urged that legal steps be
taken, but it was hoped that this
would not be necessary. The lawyers
thought that the raised assessments
would not hold.
Aid. Zimmerman said that he re-
futed the statement that the work
was done in secret. Three or four
hundred notices were sent out to
people to come before the board. The
doors and windows were open. The
former councils had done little.
Mr.. Wise said that no real estate
notices were sent out.
Aid. Peterson said that the news
papers always advocate business men
on the council. Business men have
little time to give to these matters.
We sat here two weeks in the eve
nings, after doing our own business in
the day time. 1t is likely that some
injustice has been done.
Aid. Andrews said that he hoped
that these cases of injustice would be
remedied, although it might take
time. This agitation will bring out
better system of assessments fol-
the future.
