The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1905-11-09

The Hawkins county convention last
Saturday was farce if reports are true.
We are told upon authority that is re-
liable and by parties who were there,
that only 40 persons were in the court
house during the session. This was
possibly due to the fact that the call
for the convention had only been pub
lished two days before. This is what
might be called soft snap.

Tourist Cars Popular.

The idea that an inferior class of peo-
pie patronize the tourist sleepers is an
error. On many trips only the best
class OF travellers are found. They are
merely men and women of good sense
who would rather travel to California
in this manner and save a snug sum of
money to be used elsewhere. 1t is be-
ginning to be understood that it is by
no means necessary for the traveller to
spend large sum of money in order
to enjoy trip to the Pacific Coast.
If you cross the continent in one OF
the tourist sleepers OF the Union Paci-
fic you will enjoy your trip and save
considerable money. Inquire of

The fact is that no Governor in the

There ought not to be any division
among thinking men, who make the

Grafton, as to the injustice of the law,
but there is room for difference Of
opinion as to what law should super.
sede it, In my view, this is O matter
of Importance compared to the repeal
of the law itself, for way can be
found to make just law and at the
same time preserve the balance o.
power to the Democratic party anC

East Tennessee.
l have suggested two remedies
either by election of the people, or by
recommendation of the Executive Com

shall submit two names each, from
which the Governor shall be directed
by law to name three Commissioner

approval.
In this way the people could instruC

the Democratic party could retain
majority of the Board, whether
Republican was elected Governor q
not, for it would be only a remote pc,
