Nothing Is more popular than sensational attacks on
public officials and the operation Of sknnng alderman
is always calculated provoke applause Perhaps it is
because aldermen don't get any pay that we feel it our
duty to give them much "cussing" as possible For
example this momentus carnival propositions as aforesaid
the Express opposed to this sort of business thinks
mistake was made when the outfit authorized to
do business in partnership with the city but at the same
time it sees reasowhy the five aldermen who thought
otherwise should be cruched or burned alive Fact is
the arrangement made identical with the one entered
into with the Parker aggregation last fall and which was
approved by the and council on another prev
ious occasion the made without any
howl While disagreeing with the majority of the council
the Express takes it that these were acting honestly
and in good faith when they allow the carnival
folks complete the contract entered into and the same
honesty is to be attributed to those who opposed me

Every body thinks well Of the who has sunlight in his

others whilst helping himself
Everybody attracted the cheerful sunny lives
Of such persons
Money and selfish gaius look contemplate beside such

The American people like the who does things
They like manly who canuot be deferred by personal

jaws of death for agOnized parents.
We often hear the doctors criticized
and blamed, but we seldom hear them
praised. But doctors are not long in
learning all this, and they become SO
accustomed to blame and misrepre-
sentation that they shed it like duck
sheds water. It doesn't worry them,
and they work just as hard to save
the life of the fellow that speaks false
ly of them and doesn't pay them as
they do the lives of their best friends.

IN MEMoRIAM

on Tuesday morning, December
lst. about 4 o'clock. the death angel
visited the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. P.
T. Wilson. taking away their little
darling baby boy. aged four months,
two weeks and two days. His re-
mains were laid TO rest Wednesday
In the Oklawaha cemetery beside the
graves OF the two little brothers, who
have gone before. The funeral ser
vices were conducted by Rev. l.
Hull whose discourse was fraught
with sympathy and coincidence for the
grief-sr ricken parents.
The little boy was sick only twenty
four hours. His death came unex
pectedly. He was a precious rosebud,
and his sweet life had so entwined
IT'S cords around the hearts of those
who knew him that they were hard
to be broken. Though only a little
child. he left many sad hearts to
mourn his long absence. He was too
precious TO live here, so the Lord
took him 10 his mansion in Heaven.
MAY this sad incident bring the God
iu Christ nearer those bereft. Many
are the Affections OF the righteous,
but the Lord delivereth him out of
them all" So weep not, sorrowing
ones. as those who have no hope, for
YOU can 90 TO Him.
Dearest baby. thou hast left US,
Here thy loss We deeply feel;
but It's God that hath bereft US,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful In the grave so low;
Tbou no more wilt Join our number,
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
Vet again we hope TO meet thee,
When the day Of life is fed;
Then in Heaven with Joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tear is shed.

Griner Farm, Dec. 4, 1905.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1908-08-28

Democrats of the Twenty-fifth Dis
trict especially and Democrats of the
State generally are to be congratula-
ted upon the nomination of Repre-
sentative Askew for the Senate In
the House last year Representative
Askew was one of the most devoted
and consistent temperance advocates.
But he is no oneidea man. He took
an active and intelligent part in all
legislation affecting the public veal
and his position was sound upon all
questions. His nomination is not only
a victory for Statewide prohibition,
but 1t is victory for clean govern
ment and decency in politics. In
passing we might remark incidentally
that Askews nomination is additional
evidence that the Democrats of Ten
nessee have no great affection for a
platform in the making of which they
had no part nor voice. Machine apol-
ogists should have discovered by this
time that the Democratic masses OF
Tennessee, who have never doffed the
cap nor crooked the knee TO mortal
man, will not bow submission to Ban
Murray as the inspired revealer of
Democracy.

what he had heard, and Harry said
that everybody was talking. Harlan
told him that Spot Long was in At
corn's "cnssing'' the defendant and
charging that he had never given his
wife but SIS while they were at his
mothers. Long told Harlan he was
not afraid of the whole CRANBERRY fam
lily.
Witness said he first heard of the
detective the last of April. Witness
repeated the stories told by the nurse
and the cook regarding what they had
seen at the Longs when he and his
wife boarded there. This was sub
stantially the same report of which
witness testified on his direct exami-
nation. It's repetition brought the
defendant to tears again and he
sobbed aloud A pause was necessary
in order to allow defendant to recover
his composure. He dramatically ex-
claimed to the Attorney General:
cts enough to drive man crazy"
Witness received the information
about what the negro cook and
nurse saw some time in April. The
negro girl came to the jail to see the
witness and told him what the other
side had offered and that they told
her not to go to the Jail to see de-
PENDANT. The nurse, Annie Dobbins,
came to the Jail and had talk with
the defendant.
The Attorney-General asked the wit
ness If, after investigating and tracing
these reports, he did not discover that
every report from every source, re-
fiecting upon the chastity of his wife,
was false? The defense objected
and insisted when this investigation
should be asked that If the investiga-
ton was made after the killing II was
not competent. The court said that
the Attorney General should ask
whether or not this 1nvesugatlon was
made before or after the killing. The
Attorney General insisted that in
view of the ISLANDERS on this woman
the question should be answered. The
court held that the woman's character
was not involved, but that this testi-
mony was competent only to show a
motive and the defendants state OF
mind when the killing occurred. 1t
would be competent to ask about an
investigation made before the killing,
but It would not be ceompetent to ask
about Investigations OF the woman's
character made after the killing.
Witness said tnat he had never in
his Investigations before killing found

MORNING SESSION.
Defendant Concludes Evidence After
Being on Stand Day and Halt.

One of the first persons to enter
the court room this morning was the
defendant, Harry Granbery. His ex-
preston did not betray any effect of
the narrowing experience of the day
before. He bowed and smiled recog-
milton to the friends who greeted him.
He sat smoking a cigar while waiting
for Judge Hart to arrive. The jury
came in at quarter of 10 o'clock and
the court room began to iill and there
was every indication that the acute In
terest manifested on yesterday would
be sustained.
Judge Hart entered the court room
at 1925 and he at once urged the au-
dience 10 be seated and to keep seat
ed, referring to the difficulty that he

1t is estimated that the panic 10

longer deluded with the idea that q

proof that would prove conclusively
his wife's infidelity, but he did get
facts that led him, to believe their
truth.
Witness was asked If he had not
heard since the killing that this de-
tective that was employed hired the
husband of Sallie Smith to make this
statement and that his wife Sallie
exposed him. The defense objected
because it was after the killing. The
objection was sustained, although the
state insisted that it was competent
for the State to show that the defen-
dant had not been diligent In making
his investigation of the truth Oh
charges involving the character OF his
wife. The court refused to allow the
question adherring to his ruling. VIII
ness did not make any investigation
Of the truth of reports or statements
alleged to have been made by MRS.
Brownlow or Mrs. Nowling He dld
not go to Waive FARES about the re-
ports he is alleged to have circulated
but witness did get his aunt to go 10
Mrs. Nowlin and ask her about the
report. He believed his aunt went 10
see Mrs. Nowlin, because she toid
him that she did. Witness got MS
information from various parties
those named on yesterday. THESE
were all, he said He was asked now
many of these witnesses told him Oh
some incidents. He answered re-
citing practically the facts heretofore
brought out. Witness was asked Il
Harry Harlan and the detective diu
not come to Columbia and get WASH
ington Long drunk in order to pump
him. witness said he did not know
about this, but he did know that LONG
made remarks rejecting on some
women, which defendant at times CONF
strued to mean his wife, at other times
he did not think this, but the conuS
ton of his mind at this time was
awful.
A plot of the residence OF Mr.. Long
at Mt. Pleasant was exhibited anu
identified by the witness, who eH
planned to the jury the arrangement
OF the rooms. The front room is lne
reception room, the next room is inc
room OF Mrs. Long, and imediaVeiy
back Of Mrs Longs room was his anu
wife's room, connected with MIS-
Longs room by door. II is the only
bed room that adjoins that of Mrs'
Long. He said that the boys were
supposed to sleep in the room WIN
