DEMOCRACY IS AGAIN ilCIORlUS
IN THE VOLUNTEER STATE.
PATTERSON IS ELEcTED by A
MAJORITY or 1920.

Malcolm r, Pattersosl will be
the next Governor Of tennessee.
Incomplete returns rom IS of
the 90 counties in the3tate give
Mr.. Patterson a majority of 81
600. The eight couhfies from
which no definite estimate has
been received are neollyall Re-
publican, and it is pre-. SSle that
the returns from these will cut
Mr.. Patterson's majority slight
ly. The indications are that
Mr.. Patterson's majority will be
between $4,000 and 1890.
Newell Sanders, Chairman of
the Republican State Executive
Committee, declines to- concede
the election Of Mr.. Patterson and
says the chances are that Mr..
Evans is elected.
Harvey H. Hannah, Demo-
cratic candidate for Railroad
Commissioners for the Eastern
Division, will win over Daniel
O. Swab, his Republican oppo.
nent, by handsome majority,
probably $4,000.
Frank Avent, Democratic can
didate for Railroad Commission
er for the Middle Division of the
state, is elected over William p.
Mcclure, Independents Demo
GRAFT, according to indications of
incomplete returns. Mr.. Nc
Clure was given the endorse
ment of the Republicans, but in
many counties he failed TO carry
the strength of the Republican
vote, rnd his defeat seems to be
a certainty. ~

peace and, plenty. Under the
sheen of its glorious stripes and
stars we are protected, and all
the world looks on it and is glad.
1t is the beacon of liberty beck
oning to the downtrodden of
earth. 1t demands of each one
of us our largest measure of de-
votion."
While the applause was ring
ing the orator wiped the pers-
piration from his classic brow,
and then continued.
"No sacrifice it may demand
of us can be too great. 1t must
be upheld at any cost. Where
it has once been raised it must
lnever he hauled down. We who,
live heneathfits foldsmsU eve.
be ready to die to defend it.
Yea, we must be ready to shed
our life's blood"
AT this juncture a gentleman
climbed upon the stage and ex-
tended hand in which was
sheet of paper.
"Wh-a-a-t's that?" queried the
speaker.
80, I've listened to what
you've said about making sacri-
fee of blood an all that sort o.
thing FIR tn old flag" drawled
the man who had interrupted,
"an' | thought this would be a
good time t. let you correct the
tax schedule you handed in a
week ago. Pm tn assessor an
guess you forgot to put all your
stuff down. DON'T you think it
would be easier to pay q few dol
lars of honest taxes t. keep tn
old flag flynn than it would be
to die FIR it?"
While the orator was gazing
blankly at the assessor about
nine-tenths of the audience
sneaked out, realizing that it
would be much easier to think
about dying for the flag than to
actually pay the cost of keeping
it flying.
The one-tenth that remained
had nothing to assess, therefore
were only amused.

Election Over the Country at Large,
No Great Surprises Sprang.

Elections were held Tuesday
in forty-two States, and while
the results in number of in
stances were of unusual interest,
it may be said that generally
speaking there were no great
surprises.
Throughout the South the
Democratic State and Congress
sional tickets have been elected
by the usual majorities. In the
West and East the States that
were aligned two Years ago in
the Democratic or Republican
columns show ny material
change, the DEMOCRATS making
gains in some instances and the
Republicans in othets. The Re-
publicans retain control of Con
gress by good majority.

New Swindle.

A pair of grafters are operat-
ing in Missouri with the smooth
est graft of the year. One en-
ters a business house and offers
a $40 bill in payment, gets his
change and departs. Then his
confederate enters, makes a pur-
sehaees arrasabandrtAa alerls~.essasJL
bill. When his change comes
he insists that the bill was a $40
bill, and asks that the proprietor
be called when the clerk declares
that it was a 81 bill. The CRATER
tells the proprietor that the
thing can be settled easily. The
$40 bill was all the money he
had, he says. A short time be-
fore he had occasion to wish to
remember a telephone number
and iotted it on the bill. "See
if 969LI is not marked on a bill
in your drawer" he says. eff
you find such a bill, it is mine. "
OF course the inscription had
been marked on the $40 bill by
the first visitor, and the proprie-
tor no longer hesitates before
such conclusive proof, but hands
over the bill and calls down the
unfortunate clerk, who believes
his sight has served him "a trick.

Faithful Service Recorded.

The result of the Congressional
election in this the third district
representa- splendid testimonial
to Congressman John A. Moons
faithful service and a tribute
from his neighbors because of
the clean and statesmanlike rec
ord he has made. He has re-
ceived majority of over 1920
votes, $50 of which were fur
nished by his own county-votes
cast by friends and neighbos,
both democrats and republicans.
1t was an achievement of which
he has good reason to be proud.
The vote registered Tuesday
gave Congressman Moon the
largest majority he has ever re-
ceived, except of course in his
race for the Fifty eight congress,
when he received all the votes
cast-14, 152-except 343 cast for
Frank Janeway, the indepent
candidate of that year.
Mr.. Peace, Judge Moons OPP
ponent, is young man of fine
character, clean and about the
average popularity, as is attest
ed by the vote he got in his home
county, Monroe, carrying that
county by $50 majority. But
this was not Mr.. Peace's
time to run for congress. He
made better race than probab
| ly any other republican outside
of Hamilton county have made
and considering all things, h,
may take credit to himself TO
having gotten as large vote a
he did.-Chattanooga Times.

From the San Francisco Chronicles:
Santa Rosa-A meeting of teachers
OF Sonoma county has been called by
the county superintendent for April 1s.
to discuss the plans of teachers of the
county for the important part they will
play in the entertainment of the dele
gates to the National Educational asso-
citation which convenes in San Francis
co in July.
Two excursions have been planned to
this city during the session of the as
ISOLATION, which includes a visit to
Luther Burbank, the famous horticul-
turist
1t is expected that at least 1000 peo-
pie will avail themselves of this oppor
tunity to visit Burbank's home and
inspect the wonderful work which he is
carrying out here and at his Sebasto-
pol experimental station. In addition
to consenting to receive the excursion
lists, Burbank has promised to prepare

AUTHORITY IN FRISCO
Mayor Schmitz Tells Militia
That 1t Is Assuming Pow
er In Stricken iCty.
Resents the Shooting of Men
and the Aresting Of Cit
liens at Will.

We have a fair example in Frisco
OF what might happen in this country
unoer military rule. Military officers
are despots by instinct. Put should
er straps on the average soldier, and
his chest swells out, his face becomes
stern and hardened, and his idea of
oelhg commander includes a dictat-
orsh1p over both his men and the ter
rltory in which he Is stationed. -
Inc arbitrary shooting of citizens
IN San Francisco by the soldiers is a
o1ssrace to American chivalry, No
true soldier will kill unarmed citizens.
1t was fitting rebuke that Mayor
Schm1tz administered to Gen, Foster
"nen he reminded that swelled head
warrior that San Francisco was not
under martial law, and the arrest of
cltlzens would no longer be tolerated.
Ihere was Immediately a clash of
authority, but the the mayor won. Mr..
Scmttz belongs to the non-militarv
school of thought. His democratic
foeas were formed in trade union,
and his resentment of the soldiers in
terference in the police power of the
ruined city was welcome news to most
I'll the ClL1ZenS.
1t was indeed fortunate that in every
calamity attended by loss of life there
Is ever present that flendish being.
known as a ghoul, whose hideous work
Is blot on our civilization, but there
Is nothing that can Justify the immedi-
ate taking Of his life by a soldier. and
particuaarly when the blue coat is
the only witness to the crime. The
shoul cannot be defended by any Am
erican newspaper but we are So jeal-
GUS of constitutional rights, which the
militia is ever used to destroy, we
cannot admit that it is warranted in
shooting even one Of them while
caught in the act The law is broad
enough and the courts have power

WORKINGMEN CALLED UPON TO
HELP.

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, has
issued an appeal to all American
wage earners to contribute one days
pay for the relief of the working
class sufferers, because it appears
that they only need aid in the strick-
en- city.
One days pay for the aid of a suf-
fering people. Is there a working
man in the American trade union
who will refuse to respond to the
merciful plea of Mr.. Gompers? There
can not be. We may have the dis
position of our wages for this week
laid out, but little sacrifice will do
us good.
"Let the rich contribute shouted
young man in bar room yester-
day. He bought four rounds of
drinks for the boys at 800 throw
in less than one hour. Are there any
workingmen in our city who like
this young man, pleads poverty when
asked to contribute for the relief of
suffering?
1t has long been said that the poor
are the greatest givers. You remem-
Der the Bible story of the widow and
her mite and the rich man. 1t is
as true today as it was in Christ's
time. In our own communities
where we are brought face to face
with those who are in need, because
OF our great sympathies and ready
Impulses we give sometimes beyond
our means.
But San Francisco is so far away
that that we may be late in appre-
ciat1ng the true situation; the
amount of suffering and the great
need for assistance. We are not
face to face with the suffering as we
would be at home. Do you remember
the great Hinckley fire when the
sufferers were brought to Duluth by
tie thousands? And do you remem-
Der how ready you responded to their
wants? 1t took no appeals to reach
you then. One glance at the suf-
ferer told the story, and your invol-
u..tary response came from the bost
hear! that ever beat
Don't you see our point now?
Workingmen, through your unions
many Of you have done nobly, but
more remains to be done. Contri-
butte your one days pay. The pleas
IRE in giving will so overbalance the
sacrifice you will make that YOU
will always feel proud of it.
Workingmen, do your duty.

omic welfare of so many people In
any state.
These are some of the many rea-
sons why every union in Duluth
should send a full delegation to the
Saltwater convention. We can not
plead too strongly in behalf of a
large convention. Send your wisest
and most able members. A great
work is to be done. and it requires
good men to do it.
Unionists of Duluth! Get busy!
Do not split hairs on a small expend-
iture of money. twenty-five dollars
will pay the car fare, hotel bill and
wages of any delegate: What is that
amount to any union, when it is in a
position to do so much good? There
fore we say, elect delegates at once.
