vermont and 180.0oo IN the uuion.
Hearsts candidate for Governor IN
Vermont received something over J.
600 votes. hence the estimate q His
gems vote at 100000 II is probable
thar Hisgens vote will exceed thai
received by Palmer and BuckneF. a.
though il is doubtful # II reaches a
quarter OF million.
The largest vote ever polled By .
distinct third party organization was
that obtained by Gen. Weaver, the
candidate Of the Populists in 1892.
Weaver carried the electoral votes OF
three states and received popular
vote OF 100000. However, this vote
really represented more than the
actual strength Of the Populists Tor
the Democrats of Nebraska and other
western States where the contest was
between the Populists and the Repub-
licans voted with the former in order
to deprive the Republicans Of the
electoral vote.

rHE THIRD PARTY VOTE.

Third parties have never been fav-
orally received by the American peo-
pie. There has never been cam
paign in this country since the organi-
cation of political parties and the cleo
ton of Presidential electors by pop
ular vote, when the bulk Of the voters
did not cast their ballots for one or
the other of two great political parties.
Despite the flambouyant boasts of
the Hearst papers and Mr.. Hisgen's
apparent air of confidence the indica-
lions now are that this campaign will
not be in this respect different from
those of the past. The Independence
Party although in some respects
launched under more favorable au-
spices than any of its predecessors
among the third parties, will not car
nv a State in the Union and 1t is
doubtful II Hisgen receives plurality
vote in a single county in the Union
Since the election in Vermont the
political experts have figured out that
Hisgen would receive In the neighbor-
hood of 100000 votes. In 1896 Palmer
and Buckner received 1900 votes In

BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENT.

Mr.. r. D. Lander left Monday for
Nashville, where he gees to accept the
office Of general manager of the Ten
nessean. He will make his home
there, and his family will move there
the last of this week or the first OF
next week.
The change will in no wise effect
the policy or ownership Of The Herald.
Mr.. Lander will not part with any OF
his holdings in The Herald, but will
continue to own the property, and to
control the general policy Of the paper,
and to contribute from Nashville to its
editorial columns.
The general management of the pa
per, however, will be under the diree-
ton of Messrs. Farrell, Finney and
Hastings, who have virtually had the
business of the paper in charge for
the last several months, and who are
pledged to their best efforts to keep
The Herald to the high standard It
has so long enjoyed among the people
of this good town and county, and to
continue to enjoy the good will of so
large a majority Of the citizenship OF
this, the best people on earth.
Mr.. Lander will make frequent Wis
its to Columbia, and will always be
interested in every movement, social,
political or economic, that effects the
veal or woe Of this people; and The
Herald may be relied upon In the
future, as it has always done in the
past, to stand for what is for the best
interest Of the greatest number.

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.

So far as our brethren of the Re-
publican faith are concerned it is a
case of history repeating itself with
the factions reversed. Eight years
ago when conditions existing in the
Republican ranks were similar to
those that now exist,eit was the Ev-
ans faction that surrendered and took
gratefully whatever crumbs the vic
tors were generous enough to give
them. This time the Brownlowites
have surrendered although for
months they have INDUCED in the bit
terest denunciation of their oppo-
nents and have sworn by all that was
good and holy that they ne'er would
surrender.
The terms Of agreement made be-
tween the factions very much resem-
BILE those made in 1900. In that year
the Evans candidate for Governor
was withdrawn and the BrownIow
candidate for Railroad Commissioner
was taken off the track. The two
State committees we're merged but
Brownlow was allowed safe majori-
ty Just as the Evans element is given
the controlling voice under the pres
ent arrangement. One electoral tick
ct was agreed upon divided among
the partisans of the two factions.
Right amusing cusses are those Of
the Republican ilk IN Tennessee. As
matter of fact there has never been
the slightest excuse for the existence
of the so-called Home Rulers" they
have never had the slightest griev-
ance except that which comes as a
result of an unsatisfied appetite for
the flesh pots of Federal Office. When
in control Of the party machinery
the Home Rulers" used it with much
less regard for the rights of their OPP
ponents than the recently victorious
faction has shown. Their whole
course has been revolutionary, irreg-
ular and without any substantial rea-
son for It.
But it's no quarrel of ours. History
has repeated itself in the settlement
Of Republican factional differences
there will be another historical repe-
tition in November--the Harmony"
nominees will be defeated by the
Democratic candidates, just as they
were In 1900.

WOMAN'S WORK
OF COUNTY FAIR
LADY PATRoNESSEs OUTLINE A
MOST INTERESTING PROGRAM
FOR FIRST DAY.

The lady patronesses of the Maury
County Fair held an enthusiastic meet
ing Monday afternoon at the Bethel
and received encouraging reports of
the interest being taken in the Wo-
mans Department and of the number
and merit of the exhibits for the floral
hall.
Mrs. Hatcher appointed committees
on decoration and arrangement and is
is safe to say these two departments
will be well-looked after. The deco
rations in the Floral Hall will be es-
pecially elaborate and beautiful and
some special design will be carried
out.
The lady patronesses in connection
with the gentlemen of the reception
committee will meet at $50 o'clock at
the BethellS on Tuesday, the first day
of the fair and will go from there in
carriages to the depot to meet Gen
.eral Harvey Hannah, who has been
chosen to deliver the address at the
formal opening of the woman's de-
partment
The carriages containing these
ladies and gentlemen and Gen. Han
nah will head the parade from town to
South Side Park, following directly
behind the big band. Then will come
many of the exhibition horses, the
Wild West Show and other attrac-
tions, another band and decorated car
riages.
The formal opening and address will
take place at IL a. m, and following
this the lady patronesses will enter
tain the gentlemen of the reception
3aumittee and the officials of the fair,
gethor with General Hannah with
big basket dinner. The lady patron
esses have been assigned two boxes,
which they will occupy In the after
moons and at night for the horse show.
No entries will be received for the
woman's department after Monday
The ladies will be on hand that day
to receive and place entries and 1t is
absolutely necessary that all entries
DE in place by Monday night, as the
ladies will not have time Tuesday
morning to receive and place entries
and none will be received then.

possible Monday morning. Books

NEW Works. WEALTH.

New York City's tax assessment foI
this year has just been completed. Il
shows an increase in the valuations OF
$437 100000 in one year. This In
crease alone is more than the entire
assessment of Tennessee exclusive OF
railroad, telephone and telegraph val
uations. The total assessment of the
great city is $7,15S.19O,4OO. One can
not realize the magnitude of this sum
except by comparison. This sum
would pay the public debt of the Uni.
ted States seven times over and would
then leave comfortable balance in
Uncle Sans treasury. 1t is consider
ably more than the public debt OF
France, the largest debt of any nation
in the world.
The real estate in New York
City is assessed at s6,141,50O,-
600. which is more than the
total assessed value of the real estate
of all the States West of the Missis-
sippi river in 1902. In that year the
entire assessment of lands West of
the Father of Waters was one billion
Of dollars less than New York's as
sessment. This valuation represents
sum twice the debt of this govern
ment at the close of the war between
the States. The city's increase in one
year is more than the total assess
ment of lands in the States of Ten
nessee, oregon, Florida, Mississippi,
wyoming and half dozen other
states.
There is no section in all the world
or in the history of the world where
land values have grown as rapidly as
they have in the city of New York.
Less than three centuries ago the en-
tire island Of Manhattan was pur-
chased for the proverbial song" and
today it would pay the debts of Great
Britain and the United States and
leave enough to inaugurate Mr.. Roose-
yelt's great naval programme. It rep
resents more than the total wealth of
all the world at many periods since
the downfall of the Roman Empire.
The increase in the value of New
York's real estate during the year is
equal to $1,000 for every baby born
during that period

COMMITTEE TO
MEET SEPT, Is
DEMOCRATS WILL THEN PRO-
VIDE PLANS FOR ELEcTINe
NEXT GOVERNING BODY.
PRIMARY At NOVEMBER ELECTION
That Date and Plan viii Probably Be
Provided for Selecting the
New Committee.

For the purpose Of fixing a time and
manner Of electing a new Democratic
Executive Committee for Maury ooun-
ty for the ensuing term, the members
of the present committee have been
called to meet at the court house in
Columbia, on Saturday. September -.
The terms of the present members
of the committe will expire in No
vember, that is they were elected in
November, two years ago, and the
time is approaching when their sue
cessors must be chosen.
1t is altogether probable that the
committee will, at its coming meet
ing, order a legalized primary to be
held at the November election for
the purpose of choosing members OF
the committee. 1t has been the Gus
tom for years to elect the committee
in November and this plan will doubt
less be adhered to. The legalized
plan which was followed in the cleo
ton of delegates in the last COUNTY
convention gave such general salts
faction that there is little doubt about
thee committee calling an election
that will be safeguarded by the pro
visions of the law.
The following call for the meeting
has been issued by Chairman Kan
non: The Democratic Executive
Committee of Maury county is hereby
called to meet at the courthouse in
Columbia on Saturday, September 10,
next for the purpose OF providing
manner and selecting a time for the
election of a new committee for said
county for the ensuing term, and for
the transaction of any other bust
ness affecting the welfare of the party
that may be brought to the attention
of the committee.
This Sept. TO- 1908.

FIRST MONDAY SANS SALOONS.

There was in Columbia Monday
perhaps the largest crowd of people
that have been here for purely busi-
ness purposes since the saloons were
closed eighteen months ago. Certain
ly the crowd was the largest here
since the business depression COM
menced last fall. 1t has been con-
seryatively estimated that the visit
ors in the city from the country and
from other sections numbered more
than the resident population of Co
lumbia. The streets, square, public
buildings and restaurants and eating
houses, by their congested appearance
during the day, bore indisputable evi-
dence of the large crowd in the CITY,
Not only was the crowd a large one
but it was cosmopolitan, as much rep
resentative of all grades and classes
of citizenship of this section perhaps
as any that ever fiocked to Columbia
There were old and young, white and
black. men and women in the throngs
that visited the stores and paraded
the streets. The owner of broad
acres and splendid stock rubbed ell
bows with the day laborer; the miner
from the phosphate camps bought
goods side by side with the operator
and women in calico were just as anx-
ious to see the latest fashions dis
played by the enterprising merchants
as their neighbors in the more ass-
thetic creations.
There was just such a crowd here
on the First Monday in September
1906-two years ago. Conditions ex-
listing then were similar to those pre-
vailing this week with one exception.
Two years ago Columbia had saloons.
AS a result it's peace officers arrested
thirteen of the visitors for drunken
ness and disorderly conduct. Now
mark the contrast: Monday Column
bia had no saloons nor whiskey
shops It's officers did not arrest a.
single citizen upon any charge what
ever.
These simple facts facts that are
sustained and substantiated by the
official records and by the experience
of the people of Columbia, speak more
eloauently for the abolition of sa-
looms than any address or sermon or
lecture ever conceived or delivered
by man.
This record demonstrates that
people can be sober and happy; that
they can be decent and prosperous.
Money that has heretofore been d.
verted to the dram keepers till has
found it's way into the channels OF le-
Ultimate business. 1t is safe to esti-
mate that there we're hundreds of dol
lars spent right here Monday for nee
essaries to cheer and comfort and
brighten the home that two years ago |
went into the pockets of the whiskey
dealers or to the Golfers of the city |
for fines ana costs.
Money spent in Columbia Monday |
almost every dollar OF twas In
vested for purposes that brought good
cheer and plenty and peace and adj
ded happiness and comfort to the wo-
men, and children of the county
Hundreds Of dollars spent here two
years ago were the direct cause OF
added misery and poverty and heart
aches and humiliation.
What a difference? The Infinite
One alone can measure the cost of sa'
loon cursed dollars In tears and sor-
row and broken hearts.
