DR.. R. A. Young of Nashville, was
seized suddenly Tuesday afternoon
with strangulated hernia and came
near dying before medical attention
could be given him. He was operated
upon. and, it is thought, will recover.
The Franklin and Nashville Turn
pike Company has accepted the offer
of the Davidson County turnpike COM
missioners for the Davidson County

$13, 800.
James Goodsey, in Jail at Crossville,
attempted to commit suicide Sunday
night by hanging himself to the cross
bars of his cell Goodsey has been
in Jail for six months, charged with
numbering his wife. ard it is thought
the matter SO preyed upon his mind
that it drove him to desperation or
insanity.
The DEMOCRATIC conventions ON May
20 and 30 will be held in the Capitol
at Nashville.
P. F. Parker. a crossing fagman at
Memphis, was found burned almost to
death leaning against the hot stove in

Canadian KiIties.

| IT was Hands Across the Sea-
or rather across the Canadian border =
at the Madison Square Garden 1.-The
Kilties, otherwise the Forty eighth
Highland ,rs Band of Canada, was the
medium of the mighty stretch A
crowd of Americans filled the great
auditoriu to hear the crack must
clans in Kings scarlet and Scotch
kits play. And their welcome was
warm.
The programme began with the
''Star Spangled Banner and closed
with America and ''God Save the
King, sung by the Dand.
1t was rema' kable concert in many
ways, for it included bagpipe vir-
tuosely, Scottish dances, songs and in
strumental music-a variety of accom-
plishments few bands can boast of.
And among the instrumental numbers
several American airs which were GER
tainly novel to American ears in their
unique arrangement
The old Scottish airs as they were
played last night by the ''Kilties' were
remarkably fine
In their special feld-the native
Scots music-they were simply de-
lightful. Well drilled. they play with
precision and with appreciation of their
work. New York journal, Sunday,
Jan. ~, 1909.
The Kilties will visit Columbia
next Monday, February 10th.

OF the 96 counties in Tennessee, a
majority of them, 40, are dry coun-
ties, there being not licensed saloon
in one them. In the AZ wet counties,
only in 80 towns is the sale of liquor
licensed. Seven of the dry counties
are in East Tennessee, the Republican
part of the State, and the others are
about equally divided between Middle
and West Tennessee. In the entire
Fourth Congressional district-one of
the Democratic strongholds of the State
there are only two places, Gallatin
and Double Springs. where liquor
licenses are issued. With a majority
of the Democratic counties already
dry and majority of the Demo
cratic wet counties wanting to go
dry, it is certainly asking nothing
unreasonable to request Democratic
State convention to incorporate plank
in their platform declaring for the
sound Democratic doctrine of local
self government.

thought that gives.us pause is the fear

all over the State are being drawn
close and taut, between the temperance

and the republicans are laying low
and saying nothing. The Democratic
gubernatOrial convention which meets
the last of May, will be asked, by
resolution or platform declaration, to
endorse the local option or municipal
self government idea. If they vote it
down, the temperance men will appeal
to the people. Not those in the con-

will knife the party. In other words,
the irreconcilable difference between

where something is bound to happen.
There may not be All open bolt by

Several DAYS ago Mr.. Cannon Of I'LL
nois. who blythe way. is best known
for his foul mouth and indecent Ian
guage speaking Of an amendment
offered by Mr.. Padgett relative to the
Philippine policy. referred to it as be-
ing ''idioiic In the Senate day or
two later. Senator Lodge characterized
the remarks of Senator Teller talong
the same lines which had been adj
vanced by Mr.. Padgettl as being
..silly. A"
The New York World, of January &c.
referring to the Padgett- Cannon
incident. makes editorial comment as
follows.
When Mr.. Padgett of Tennessee.
offered an amendment in the House of
Representatives that the Government
of the United States relinquish the
sovereignty of the Philippine Islands
and restore the sovereignty thereof to
the people of those islands. Mr..
Cannon made three points of order
against the am endment, the last Icing
that it is idiotic.
THE Republican Legislators have in
the last four years been developing a
peculiarly subtle sense of the idiotic.
when Spain was overtaxing the
Cubans for the fattening of her purse,
our Republican friends in lachrymose
orations described the pitiful condition
of poor. starving Cuba.
But when the United States brings
Cuba to the verge Of ruin for the
bloating of the purses of few highly
citizens, these same Repub-
licans regard Cuba s state of starvation
as 'idiotic. OF course If the be-
nighted Cubans are hungry and do not
eat the sugar which we prohibit them
from exporting, surely it is 'idiotic.
Again, When Gen. Weyler invented
the highly ingenious 'reconcentrado
system, indignant Republicans with
flashing eyes denounced him as "a
murderer. They have also quite re-
,ently been applying the same rude
,pithet to Gen. Kitchener in the Trans
7aal
but when Gen. Bell decides to in
roauce this same benevolent policy of
concentration in the Philippines, in
rider, as he naively puts it, to make ,,
he insurgents want peace, and want :
t badly, our amiable Republican
tatesmen regard any possible resent
nent at this as 'idiotic.
"Of course.the theory that reconcen- 7
ration affects Filipino In the same
hammer that it does Cuban or a Boer
) 'idiotic.
Truly they are splendid minds that T
an thus brush aside the superficial
ppearances of things and lay bare
1eir innate and incurable idiocy" I,
