1t may not be good policy or

over the state are warning the
Democratic party of the breakers
ahead, because of the unseemly
campaign going on for Governor
in this State. 1t is common
thing among Democrats to say
that if one or the other of the
leading candidates is nominated
they will not vote for him. The
party lash has lost its sting and
bossism has grown odious, and
unless good and acceptable mer
are nominated, the Democratic
party in this State cannot hope
to win much longer. The only
hopeful thing for the Democratic

SURELY NOT TRUE

We have been informed by
prominent Carmack man, that a
deal was made recently, by the
terms of which some Taylor men
are to quietly work to deliver
this county to Carmack, in return
for the aid recently given Cox by
Carmack men. We told our in
formant that until proof. absolute
and indis putable was presented
of this petty trade, we would not
believe it, of Lawrence Coun-
tians, and we do not. Surely the
sons of sireS, whose devotion to
honest convictions was tested in
wars fiery crucible at Monterey,
Chepultepec, Shiloh, Franklin,
Mission Ridge, have not reached
the plane, where they trade their
honest convictions, or traffic
away their patriotism. They are
no true followers of Taylor, who
would even think of making his
lofty ideals circulating medium.
They stab to death the splendid
sentiments of Carmack, who
would enter deal to barter Their
true principles for mess of po
tage." Both Taylor and Car
mack, splendid, .high-minded
honorable men as they are, woult
spurn with loathing and con
tempt, any follower of theirs wh'
would either buy anothers, or sci
his own birthright of honest pur
pose, by such trade or unpatri
otto scheme. But we repeat we
don't believe that Lawrence
Countians, inheriting the tradi
tions of an hundred years OF
honest, patriotic endeavor anc
manliness have done this thing
or will do so.
Lawrence democrat. (Lawrenceburg, Tenn.) 1884-1925, 1906-03-13

was 133,lb6. In 1904, with the
machine directing things, the
vote was only 1871, 1858. And in
some years between the periods
the Democratic vote was less than
100000. AS vote getter the
machine method is a failure.

honesty. Brownsville States
