committee of Trousdale county, says:
"Governor Patterson grows stronger
in the affections of the people as the
days go by. Every effort on the part
of carping critics, every stab by polit-
ical enemies but serve TO make him
more popular with the masses. The
inherent sense Of fairness of the people,
their loyalty to the true principles Of
democracy, cause the stalwart DEM
0cracy of the country to look more and
more to Gov. Patterson as the Moses OF
the democratic party TO lead them out
Of the Wilderness of fanaticism. Our
people, generally speaking, heartily
approved the governors course in veto
ing the drastic election laws enacted
by the late coalition Legislature. They
resented the passage of these laws, not
alone because they were passed for
factional purposes and by the air of re-
publicans, but because they were un-
fair, undem0cratic and, as chancellor
Allison has said, unconstitutional.
The sovereign democrats of this coun-
try believe they are capable of man
aging their own household without any
partisan legislative regulation

PATTERSON in
TROUSDALE.

Since the county primary in Trous-
dale has been held and the race for
chancellor over the unterrified democ-
racy will turn its attention to the race
for governor and United States Senator.
Former governor McMillin has many
friends in this county and section who
desire TO see him go 10 the senate, and
so has governor Patterson. The organ
lied democrats, though, talk no one
else but governor Patterson for re-elec-
tion. The prohibitionists are divided,
but most of them appear to favor state
treasurer Folk. General Hannah,
McCarn and Luke Lea have each sub
stantial following, however. The or
ganization democrats are all against
the new primary election law and a
great many of the prohibition DEM
ocrats in the rural communities who
think that the law gives the republi-
cans the advantage, J. Carr Crenshaw

dens of Christmas. The dwell ON the
obligations of the day and the burden
of making gifts. But the spirit Of
Christmas is not with such as these,
and the gifts at which they murmur
never belonged to the day. A gift
and it is of gifts one must think on
Christmas, since ii was on that day
the greatest of gifts was made to the
world-agift must always be free, 1t
must be untrammeled 1t must i'm
pose no obligation. 1t must have no
faint of selfishness in it, nor any spirit
OF barter or gain. 1t tmust spring spon-
taneously from the highest and most
noble impulse in ourselves. There is a
joy and blessedness in giving, but
there is something even higher than
this when the thought of the good be-
longing TO Others prevails over these.
We have only to look at the worlds
greatest GIFT and draw our meaning
from ii.
There lies in each ones hand a great
privilege on Christmas day beyond all
other days. Whether by word or good
cheer, of hope and encouragement,
whether by kindlysgreeting or a gen.
tie act of courtesy, or whethea by gifts
or merrymakings, by the simplest
things we do or by the greatest, the
privilege and power are ours of making
another feel all the joy that is our own.
For joy is GOd-given and belongs by
right to each and all of us, and as
through joy in Christ we came to a
knowledge of the common brotherhood
Of man, so through joy in each other
we may learn to know Christ again,

bett will be the animated punching
bag on which James j. Jehries will
practice in fitting himself for his fight

This was the announcement made
today by Corbett on his arrival from
Europe on the Mauretania. He said
he would start q series of hard fights
with Jeffries forty days before the big
fight comes off.

is purchased at the cost Of another
mans labor. In this way universal
peace prevails.
Our time of thanksgiving Is q time
Of merrymalling, each family choosing
its own way of celebrating the day. 1t
is a national, not universal jubilee,
held closer to the hearts of certain
sections than TO others. And so With
high days and holidays the world over,
with all feasts and all festivals. They
belong to creeds or governments, to
Superstitions of the soil or traditions of
tribes. But Observation-Disclosures be-
longs to no one nation alone nor 10 one
tongue, nor to one latitude or longu-
tude, nor to one color or creed. Neither
is it a movable feast, though it comes
with the frost of winter with us and
with the perfume of dropping bios
SONS in the southern hemisphere. Nor
yet is it a day that one man celebrates
with dance and another with feast,
thinking that he has fulfilled all Of its
spirit. Though feasts belong to it, and
good cheer, and all the sweet delights
of gift giving; though we associate with
it the jeweled and candled tree and the
blazing yule log, though the deer Of st.
Nicholas prance over the snow and
young hearts are merry and old hearts
are glad-though all of these things be-
long to this day, yet even they are but
the outcome and fulti!lment of that
deeper note which marks this day-a
note Of good will to men sung first by
the angels of Bethlehem.
1t is the spirit Of good will to others
that all men fell or should feel on
Christmas. II is this spirit which
makes the day distinct and pre-em-
inent. Ii is this spirit which distin-
guishes the day from ali other days.
We have done much for Christmas.
We have given it joyous ceremonials.
We have given it services that have
grown in beauty and sentiment through
the centuries. We have done this for
Christmas, but Christmas has done
far more for us. II has given to the
world this one day, when, all about its
hemispheres, like a finely wrought
web, one thought is woven in the
minds of men, inspiring the best and
noplest actions ot the year. There is
no one who does not feel its influence
or in failing to feel it docs not pity
himself that his joy is dead. The poor
