MIR. Richardson's Cnuc
Representative James D. Richardson OF
Tennessee. the Democratic floor leader
has been caned. And the Gaming was done
by the little daughter of one of Mr.. Rich
ardson's constituents for whom the Demo-
cratic floor leader did a favor a number
of years ago. The cane in question is of
dogwoOd and is handsomely carved. the
work having been done by an expert with
a penknife. There are two scrolls on the
cane. One starts from the handle. which
is ornamented with the insignia of Mr..
Richardson's most exalted Masonic office
and contains the Masonic record of the
Tennessee statesman from his entrance
into the order through the various de-
grees up TO the highest office within the
gift of Masonry. The second scroll tells
OF his record in the Confederate army. and
of his nine consecutive elections to the
House of Representatives.
As piece of penknife carving, the cane
cannot be excelled. 1t has been admired
by most every member in the House Mr.
Richardson is the third member to be
caned this session, Representative Cannon
and Speaker Henderson having recently
received one from admiring constituents.

some OF the leading republican
papers have pursued a very mis-
taken policy, as regards the dem
ocratic candidates and the demo.
cratic platform during the election
just closed.
They started out by praising the
candidates on that ticket and com
mending the platform and the result
was that the republican papers and
the candidates on the republican
ticket were handicapped throughout
the entire race. One leading paper
came out with a eulogy for every
member of the democratic state ticket,
commenting them in such "A way
that the democratic papers quoted
the article rs the strongest evidence
that could he produced of the high
standing of their candidates.
The fact of the matter is, that the
democrats never placed so poor II lot
of men in nomination during the en-.
tire history of the party in this state.
and it is openly charged that the
paper in question must have been
touched" in a tender spot.

been that the good referred to was

scientists are gravitating to the
thought that the meaning that the

souls of men perfect light should
come, they would he like those that
