their bitter campaign upon each
other.
As a Democratic newspaper
having in view only the good of
the State and of the dominant
party in the State-we have sug-
gested that it will be we'll to give
consideration to these facts.
Some newspapers, and many
political leaders, play politics all
the time and dare not come outin
the open and express their real
convictions. This is one influence
Of the State Democracy. Another
influence is the heat Of contest.
The lines have been drawn. At
least three-fourths of the dele
gates have been chosen, bitterness
has been aroused, and we fear that
many Democrats would prefer to
succeed i'll nominating their par
ticular candidate than in electing
any other Democrat governor.
The CHRONICLE is under no OBJ
legation to say any more than it
profoundly feels, and whoever it
may help OF injure, we consider it
duty to be frank in this matter
In the minds of some partisan
editors their only duty is to stir
up fight among the "other fell
lers." We prefer that our own
party shall succeed because of its
own minded leadership and
because of it's own volition dares
to do right, and to accomplish this,
frank discussion is needed. This
we shall indulge in with a salts
faction of duty done, whatever the
result. In the midst of these per-
sonalities, based on records in
which each candidate accuses the
other Of fee grabbing, larger and
more vital issues have not been
mentioned.
Let Tennessee Democrats rise
above factional differences, petty
quarrels, the intrigue Of peanut
politicians and for once IN the his
tory of the State, have a State con-
vention attended by strong men
who go there for the purpose Of
rebuking slick political methods
and in order to nominate men who
will secure the solid Democratic
strength of the State at a time
when it is needed.
Ii the Democracy of our county
will look at the situation from this
viewpoint and exercise their good
judgement in the convention here
next Monday, we feel that their
action will be for the good of the
grand old Democratic party.

Democrats, we wish to remind
you that it is your duty to be at

Every Democrat in the conven-

that everything is done fairly in
the proceedings. Let everything
be done in harmony, avoiding dis
cord and questionable methods.
Let it not be said that old Benton

gubernatorial convention.

FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1906.
A CANDID STATEMENT,

With apologies to the Knox
vile Sentinel, we have no inten-
ton Of being sensational about the
gubernatorial situation in Tonnes
see. We merely wish to direct
the attention of the Democrats
OF this county to the facts.
In any event we believe that the
Democracy should win in Novem-
Der, for Tennessee is normally a
Democratic State, and defeat can
only occur as a result of serious
detection.
And when the convention has
met and selected candidate, un-
less he is manifestly unfit for the
position of governor, he should
and will have the support of The
CHRONICLE, and we have no doubt
of the entire Democratic press.
But we must realize the fact that
the voters of Tennessee are sub
Ject to two great influences. One
OF these is growing independence
and light wearing Of party robes,
which renders ever political con-
test uncertain. Another is grow
ing disgust at political conditions
generally, which keep a largerand
larger proportion from the polls.
When we state the Democratic
vote for President in 1876 was
1873, 166 and in 1904 only 131, 653,
in spite of the great growth of
population in those twenty-eight
years, the extent to which the stay
at-home practice is more manifest.
LII 1896 the Democracy cast 1861
268 votes for William j. Bryan, a
number never since reached. In
1902 the vote for governor was
only 1884.
Suppose the stay-at-home voters
in the Democratic party should
come out to the polls and express
theirdisprovalof Democratic nom
nations and conduct of the party?
We look fornos such catastrophe,
but forewarned is forearmed.
The press of the State, in some
what inert manner, has taken up
and commented on the situation,
and amoug the papers which have
spoken pessimistically are the
Nashville American, Chattanooga
Times, Nashville Banner and the
Columbia Democrat.
The general note seems to be
one of hopelessness, however.
The Memphis Scimitar, Jack
son Wing, Chattanooga News and
fully four-fifths of the country
press accuse Mr.. Patterson of be-
ing responsible for the condition.
The CHRONICLE. is inclined to
this view. We think that Mr.. Cox
should be judged on his record as
governor, which is excellent, but
in politics the record of man for
the whole of his career is in evil
dence, and Mr.. Cox suffers, in
spite Of his exoneration by the SUI
preme court, from his connection
with the back tax fee system,
against which there was protest at
the time to such an extent that the
law was changed.
Mr.. Patterson held the Office of
district attorney during the same
period, and the dockets of Shelby
County tell story which would
not sound well from the lips of I'll.
Clay Evans on the stump. But
the chief element of weakness for
both candidates is the effect of
