Geo. w. Worley, who made the
race four years ago as a candidate
for Trustee against Mr.. Hayden,
the present incumbent, announces
in The Commercial this week as d
candidate to succeed Mr.. Hayden
at the expiration of the term Of
Office next year.
Mr.. Worley was when be entered
the race comparatively unknown
in the county, but before the pri.
mary election was held he had es-
tablished himself among the good
people Of the county as one Of its
best citizens. Not only this, but
his opponent frankly admitted
that Mr.. Morley was an honor
able, fair-minded gentleman and a
worthy foeman. Mr.. Worley has
always borne the character Of an
hoaored citizen. He was for a

K. N. Dick Tankersley enters
the race again as candidate fol
Sheriff of Obion County. Mr.,
Tankersley has been resident OF
Number Five most all his life and
is we'll known throughout the
county, having made the race for
Sheriff ia the last election. He has
filled the Office of Constable and
Deputy Sheriff for his section of
the county for many years and
was most acceptable officer. He
is thorough gentleman, a trust
worthy citizen and man in every
way capable of making a good
officer. He has qualifications very
desirable in an officer of the law.
He is also a Democrat, one of the
old school, tried and true, and will
make the race subject to the action
of the party. 1t is a pleasant duty
to present the gentleman's name
before our readers. He is not only
capable of making good officer,
but would use his untiring efforts
to execute the law and the duties
Of the Office in a satisfactory man

extended as stated in this article.
1t would be further curtailed from
the fact that number of small
dealers would be compelled to re-
tire from the saloon business, not
being able to pay the privileges
required in this bill.
Then it may be assumed with
some degree of accuracy that the
road fund would not reach over
$500, 900, which, divided equally
among the counties, would be a
little more than $1,000 to the
county. This amount would be
worth something, it is true, but

s. r. BRATToN.

The Commercial is authorized
this week to announce the name o.
Sam. r, Bratton as q candidate fol
election to the office Of Trustee Of
Obion County to succeed. the pres.
ent incumbent at the expiration Of
his term of Office next year. Mr..
Bratton is we'll known to the citi-
zens of this city and civil district.
He is also comparatively well
known in the county. 1t is well
enough, however, to say that he
has spent most Of his life as res
ident of Union City and the coun-
try nearby. He has for a number
OF years been engaged in farming
and was recently elected as a JUS
tice of the Peace Of the Thirteenth
Civil District.
Mr.. Bratton has never before
offered to make the race as a can
didate for county office, and in the
division Of public favors be feels
that this entities him to some con-
slderati0n. Besides he has the
mental, moral and physical re-
quirements which should qualify
a good official for SO important an
Office. Mr.. Bratton is above all a
Democrat the kind that knows
and entertains no compromise. He
has always been true to his colors
IN and out of season. He will
make the race as a Democrat, sub
lect to the action of the party, |
and if elected will without doubt
make a diligent and painstaking
official, pledging bis best efforts
70 carry out the aims and purposes
Tor which the office was created in
/ manner creditable to himself and

, totalers. If that theory were tru
then there would be very littI
: prohibition as it applies to the Ii
qnor trade. Many men who's,
scruples do not prevent them from
tasting alcoholic beverages tax,
the position that saloons are men
ace to the welfare of society il
the same manner that carrying
concealed weapons acts upon the
peace of the community. 1t stands
to reason that this view of the
question is largely entertained,
considering the per centage of Ii
Iquor consumed in the country.
For instance, four ffths of the
voting population of Union City
signed petitions to repeal the char
ter of Union City and thereby
abolished the saloons here under
the operation of the Adams law.
Citing the number of jugs, pack
ages and cases received here dur
ing the holidays it could not be
safely assumed that the same num-
Der of voters were teetotaIers.
The deduction is that not all pro
hibitionists are practical temper
ance people. In advancing these
facts it is the purpose to show that
some of the State papers are en-
gagged in an argument which is not
altogether removed from the sus.
picion Of absurdity. The propo-
sition is made by these papers
that prohibition is calculated to
benefit the towns morally and So
cially, while it would act altogeth-
er different if applied to the cities.
In other words it was proper to
cover the towns in Tennessee with
the Adams law, but it should not
be extended to the cities.
BY the same process of reason
ing a man should be prohibited
from carrying concealed weapons
in Union City, but in Nashville he
might do so without risk to the
citizens in that city. If there is
any merit in prohibition it is Just
rs good for Nashville as it is for
Union City.
OF course it should not be insisted
hat Nashville have prohibition

IP CONGRESS- WOULD DO 1T.

/
IF CONGRESS WOULD DO 1T.
If Congress would do somethin,
really worth doing, and somethin,
that would bring a mountain of re
lief to the American people, til,
attention of the Senator's and Rep
resenatives would be diverted from
subsidy and private pension bill
and other things that are not worth
a tinker's careless remarks anC
concentrated upon an effort to ric
us of the continual and abominabls
harangue of politics incident to
frequent elections. People should
be very slow to encroach upon the
Constitution, but it is believed that
the time is ripe for a change in the
election laws.
In order to bring about the desir-
ed results the Constitution should
be changed SO that the term of the
President would be for six years in
stead of four, and no man eligible
for re- ele ton. Congressman
should also be elected for a period
of six years, the term of Office each
to begin and expire at the same
time and no man eligible for re-
election.
This would insure us a rest from
tho harassing and disturbing pol
itical ebulitions every two years.
This might not be enough to justi-
fy the change, but there is another
and more important side to the
question. If the President a n d
Congressman were elected every
six years and then forced to retire
there would be more competent law
makers and executives. Too many
Congressman begin to plan for re-
election the minute they enter Con-
gress, and that is the burden of
their entire labor in Congress.
Pensions upon pensions are piled
mountain high for no reason I'M
der the sun except as lever by
which to get back to Congress.
Civil and Mexican War pensions
have never decreased, and yet it
has been nearly forty-two years
since the Civil War closed. A
pension can be had for the asking,
If the right Congressman be seen.
No pretext needed. Any man who
reads the proceedings on Private
Pension days in Congress knows
this is no exaggeration. The

From experiments which we have
