Until the triaia are concluded but slight intermlssions for the Christmas holidays will be had in what promises to be the most vigorously contested legal battle ever fought in the courts of West Tennessee on the outcome of which. to a large extent. depend what will follow in the efforts of the State to stamp out the night rider elan Of the lake.
 The men on. trial are Garrett John son, sam Applewhite. Roy Ransom, Bud Morris. Fred PEugen, Arthur Clear. Tod Burton and Rob Huffman. Todays court procedure resulted ad- verseIVs ta the aefensa. Whtle the cous gln was en0wded to It's caDaeity 1nd the sympathies of those in hi. tendance well divided. the day passed without demonstration, Immediately after the men were brought tpto court the prosecution announced readiness to proceed immediately with the issue formally requesting that the court. in- stead of the sherin. as Is usual. select the jury venire. On the part of the de- fense 1t was asked that the indict- ments returned at the october term of court charging an offense os less ss- rious nature, be first disposed of and that the sheriff be permitted to select the jury panel.
 Judge Jones decided adversely to the reuuesls of Attorney Pierce. who ap- peared for the defendants. Then the defense announced that they too were ready for tiie trials to begin. under pro test. This concluded the court proceed ure of today.
 Tn his written opinion as to the jury venIre Judge Jones announced that ne would summon 300 men to be present at the opening of court Wednesday, at which time the work of selecting the trial jury will begin. ana instructed sheriff Hasterwood to be In readiness tonorrow to serve summons on the men he shall select. It was also point ed out by the court that any one who endeayored to disqualify themselves for jury service would be guilty of con- tempt of court and punishment in ac- cordance would be inflicted.
 During today's court session Coi. h. z. Taylor. the associate of Captain Quentin Rankin, for whore murder the men are on trial and who witnessed the hanging and shooting to death Of his companion, was seated directly facing the accused his gaze as 1t pass ed from man to man being returned, but whatever might have been their feelings, their countenances did not indicate, the ordeal of the day passing without a show Of emotion on the part of the prisoners.
 With Col. Taylor. were a number of hls friends from Gibson county while the friends of the alleged, night riders from the lake region were also pres ent in numbers.

WON'T DICTATE T0T,EGISLAT0RS 7zn Will Act Only as Advisor. POLITICS IN NEBRASKA Win Sec That Platform Pledges
 Are Carried Out. Mir. Bryan Announces That in Future He win spend His wIster. in
 Tcxas-Retnins Citizenship
 ia Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb.. Dec. 14.-That W. J. Bryan will not attempt to dictate the action of the Nebraska Legislature this winter. but will act only in an advis- ory capacity, Is indicated by the fol. lowing statement made today:
 I have only one interest in the Leg isIature," said Mir. Bryan, and that is to see every pledge of our platform carried out and this applies to the pledges made in our State platform and to such pledges in our national platform as can be carried out by the State Legislature. I need hardly add that l shall take no part in contests for the offices in the Legislature or the off1ces to be filled by~tffe Governor. My one Intent is to sec the promises kept. This am interested in because plat form pledges are contract made with the voter and also because ISbelieve that the Keeping of such promises Is necessary If the Democratic Party IS to maintain it's position in the state. '
 Mir. Bryan said that he would spend his winters ia Texas hereafter. but that he had no intentiqp of changing his residence from NebfaskA He denied that he had hunted bear in Texas. and also stated that he had not been ar rested and fined for exceeding the limit In duck hunting.
 MT. Bryan entered a denial to the report that his support extended to other newspaper adventures than his own paper.
 Named as the logical candidate for Senator from Nebraska. Mir. Bryan ex- plained his position by saying merely that the election did not occur for two years and that no one could tell what might happen.
 The greater part of the winter will be spent >shy Mfr. Bryan ct Fairview, where Democratic legislators will be welcomed.

FIGHT IN TENNESSEE
BOTH SIDES PLANNING FOR LIQUOR
 CONTEST.
Democratic Party Committed to Local Option and ChairsnaR Announces Opposition to Statewide
 Prohibition.

NaAhyille. Tenn. Dec. 14.-Indica- tions multiply that the liquor question will be burning issue before the Tennessee Legislature, which meets here in January.
 Advocates of a Statewide prohibition law are making sweeping claims ana today opened headquarters here with former Senator I. l.. Pendleton of this city in charge.
 Tonight Austin Peay. chairman of the Democratic State Committee and a close friend of Governor Patterson, announced that as Democratic State Chairman, he has opened headquarters here to oppose Statewide prohibition Legislation. Senator Albert c. Ewing, Jr.. of Nashville will be in charge. Chairman Peay has also issued call for the Democratic State Committee to meet here on Thursday. Dec. IT., 10 consider the situation.
 ~In his statement announcing the opening of Headquarters, Chairman Peay says his action Is taken 'tn view of the efforts now being made to force upon the General Assembly Legislation in direct opposition to the Democratic platform and to organize its two branches for the same purpose"
 The Pendleton law, now on the statute books. gives local option to cities of less than 100000 inhabitants. The four-mile law secures practically prohibition in unincorporated terri tory.
 Tie Democratic platform pledges the party to s'take no backward step" in iiauor legislation, but to extend and apply those laws to all portions of the State not now embraced in their op- eration whenever the people of the communities to be affected therby give their consent. believing they have the right to determine this question for themselves.
