other, anxious to get all she could from
the fairy, answered. '"ro live in palace

child, who would have asked for "new

REPUBLICANS io'
GET TOGETHER.
Evans Candidate for Gov
ernor Will Step Down.
MARKS INFLUENCE TOO STRONG.
The Lions and the Lambs Will Lie
Down Together, but not with Love
IN their Hearts.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 4.-The
war between the Republican fac
tions In Tennessee Is over. The in
duence of Chairman Hanna, Vice
Chairman Payne and other leaders
and the fear OF some of the Tonnes
ace leaders that they might lose
their jobs unless they got togethe err.
has had its effect, and the indica-
tioDs are tonight that the lions and
the lambs will lie down together, but
not with much love In their hearts
for each other.
The Campaign Committee of each
faction met here this morning, and
each held long conferences. Later,
propositions and counter PROPOSE
rions began to pass between the re-
spective commmittees aud, while
there wills good zeal of kicking at
the terms proposed in some cases, at
10 O'Clock To night 1t was announced
thata compromise had been reached i,
and after few preliminaries would
be signed.
Under this compromise, it is said
that Poston, the Evans candidate for
Governor, will retire, and Mccall,
the Brownlow candidate, will be
pitted against Gov. McMillin. In re-
turn for the disposal of Poston, the
Evans candidate for Railroad Com
missioner, D. w. Owens is to sup.
plant the Brownlow candidate for
Thu office. The Evans men are to
have one of the candidates for
Elector for the State-at large, and
they are also given the Electors
in the Third, Fifth, Sixth and Tenth
districts.
The Brownlow State Committee,
it is also agreed, will add ten Evans
men to their organization.
1t is the intention, just as soon
as the plans are agreed to, to pull off
the dates with the Democrats for a
joint debate between the guber-
Material candidates and arrange a
new set of dates, with Mccall taking
the place of Poston.

THE soldiers of the allied forces in
China are vieing with the Boxers in
their deeds of rapine and murder,
and are putting civilization to
shame. Many acts of atrocity have
taken place in the make up of the
troops in the Pei Ho Valley, between
Takn and Pekin, and robbery, rape
and murder are continuous. The
road to Tien Tsin is lighted by burn
ing homes; helpless women and
children have been slaughtered and
natives have been put up for targets.
Rowing parties.of soldiers indulge in
unrestricted outrages. With few ex-
ceptions, every town aud village in
the section traversed by the armies
has been looted. The Russians are
the worst offenders, with the French
also contributing largely in proper
ton to their numbers. The Japa-
nese, British and Americans are un-
der better control. The conduct of
the Cossacks has been especially
atrocious.

The fact that a man Is poor and
has no money with which to buy
votes, Is NJ reason at all why any
body should vote for him. A perth
nent question is, when he had the
money did he use it that way, and II
he hal itnow would he so use 1t
again? II a man has the money or
the credit but from sense of right
and principle refuses to corrupt the
ballot box with 1t, then that would be
a reason and good one why he

LEM PADGErT has been an
exemplary man from his youth up.
He wasted none of his school days
in sowing wild oats, he devoted none
of the hours of his young manhood
in riotous living. AS son to his
wido wed mother, as a husband and
father, as the elder brother and gen.
eral advisor of his family, as a law
yer faithful.and true to his clients,
as an officer In his church, as law
abiding, sober, conservative, though
enterprising and progressive citi-
zen, as man who gives literally to
his church and to private and pub
tic charities, as man who at home
or abroad walks the path of life with
hristian rectitude, dealing char
itably with the faults of others and
paying to every man his just deserts,
being good example to the young
and safe advisor to the old,-as
such man, Lem Padgett is the
peer of any man in this Congress
sional district; and these are the
reasons WHY the HERALD has given
him its cordial support, and why we
commend him with confidence to
the Democratic voters of the district,
and why we think that Maury coun-
ty will honor itself by honoring him.

THE Republicans are charging
that Mr.. Bryan, IL elected, would
"reorganize" the Federal Supreme
Court. The charge presupposes that
Congress would give him the power
to do SO, for without authority from
Congress he could no more "reor-
ganize" the Federal Supreme Court
than he could the Supreme Court of
Tennessee. However, If he had the
chance to "reorg inize" the afore-
said Federal Court and didn't, we
should feel greatly disappointed in
Mr.. Bryan.

Now laying all campaign talk and
prejudice and joking aside, as an
orator and DICTATOR, is not Lem 2
Padgett the superior of either Of
his opponents? And does not his
success in life prove him to be
the best business man? And GER
tainly these are the two qualities
that should characterize a Con
gresham. And when we come to
consider party service, has he not
done more of that than either of his
opponents? When man is can
didate and working for himself,
that is personal, not party service.
And we are ready to yield to his OPP
ponents the palm for doing more of
that sort of service than Mr.. Padgett
has. But it is when man Is not an
fice-holder or an office-seeker,
but in answer to his party's
call quits his business, leaves his
office, pays his own expenses and
devotes his time and talent and in

doctrine and the election of party
nominees-that is party service ;
