Too Much Politics.

Too much politics is destructive of
business progress and industrial pros
perity. It takes the business man
from the office, the farmer from the
field, and the mechanic from the shop,
often at times when 9heir services can
be poorly shared.
Tennessee has been through siren
uous eighteen months Of politics, which
has had its effect upon the business,
social and industrial conditions of the
State, and yet there is tendency in
certain quarters to inject another such
period of politics by striving to prevent
the Democratic party from following
the wise precedent OF indorsing sue
cessful administrations.
Such has been the administration of
Governor Patterson. His appoint
ments have been of the highest order,
as attested by the approval with which
they pave been received. The finan-
cial condition OF the State, in spite OF
the heavy expenditures of legislative
session, was never better Party pledg
90 have been redeemed so far as the
Governor is concerned; the exercise Of
the veto power was wisely used to pre-
vent the breach of them, and messages
employed urging the enactment of all
Of them into law.
The evil of too many and too fire..
quent elections can be remedied only
by returnining without contest those
public servants who have served the
people we'll. There is no ground fol
rejecting this precedent in the case Of
Governor Patterson, but much reason
for following it.--Nashville Tennessee
