RUSHING'S CREEK.

Clay Rushing, L. A. Berry and
Horace Rushing were in Nashville
few days last week.
On account of the recent severe
blizzard business and farm work is
at standstill in this locality.
Tobacco buyers were here last
week. they are paying a very
good price for tobacco, but not as
much as was expected earlier in
the season.
We hear a great deal said about
the whisky question and the act of
the Legislature In voting saloons
out of Tennessee. The whisky
question is moral question and
not political problem, and it is a
question which concerns every
man, woman and child in the State
and Nation to a greater or less
extent.
Some say it is taking away the
rights of the people when you vote
out whisky. Some say we wil lose
revenue; that our schools will be
no good, etc.
We think that legalMing the
sale of whisky is one of the great
est crimes ever perpetrated on an
'enlighted, civilized people. But
the same power that grants a priv
ilege can take it away. Whisky is
all evil, and for the well being of
society there is an uprising the
world over to stamp it out.
The question of revenue has cut
no figure in those States where the
saloons have been abolished. On
the ether hand times are better,
schools are better aud better at
tendance because the money spent
for whisky is now spent for cloth
ing, books, food, etc, business is
better, aud conditions ane better.

TENNESSEE POLITICS.

h&s taken place in Nashville since
this fateful year began, the inter
rogaton naturally springs to every
tongue, "What effect is it going to
have on the future political align
ments of the State?"
Is it going to split the Demo
cratic party in twain9 And ifnot,
rs the Patterson wing or the anti
Patterson wing to dominate in the
future primaries?
If the rancorous factional fight
now on shall lead to the disruption
OF the party and to two separate
organizations, will the Republican
party fuse with one or the other
of them, or will it continue to act
independently
If there shall be athree-cornered
Eight, will the Republicans out
number either of the Democratic
factions at the polls?
If the Republicans should get
partial or entire control of the
State Offices, would we have any
Ching like a repetition of the scenes
of reconstruction days?
Ithas been frightful recollection
OF those days and the fear of negro
equality that has prevented Dem
ocratic disruption several times be-
fore in the last forty years.
So long as the white people of
the State have lived in the shadow
of such a menace, there has been
no hesitancy on the part of the
body of our people about buryipg
all minor political differences and
standing together in the white
anan's party.
The removal of this fear at any
time would have vastly strength
ened the Republican party in
Tennessee and all the other South
ern States.
A great manymen who constant
iy vote the Democratic ticket on
account of the negro question, are
more in accord with the Republi-
can party on other issues, and
would support it's candidate if left
to their unbiased choice.
A great many Others who are
Democrats in the fundamental
principles Of the party, believe
that it would be better for the
South if there could be more
equal division Of the voters be-
tween the two parties. They con-
tend that it would lead to greater
purity in the administration of
government and that it would be
better for the economic welfare Of
the section.
There is no doubt but these ar
guments have had their effect, and
the body of people of Tennessee
are much more tolerant of the
Republican party than ever before.
One reason is that the Republican
leaders have ceased to cater to the
negro vote, and have sought to
make it mere of white mans
party.
Another reason is that President
elect Taft has been sedulously
wooing the South with the hope of
strengthening his organization in
this part of the nation.
lie he wouldconsent to the repeal
of the fifteenth amendment he
might really stand some chance OF
carrying some Of the Southern
States.
But whether the negro shall be
constitrtionally eliminated from
politics or not, it is perfectly APP
parent that conditions in Tennes-
see are more favorable to the Re-
publieans than they have been at
any time since the split of the

MILLION DOLLAR
FORGER CAUGHT
HE ASSOCIATED WITH WEALTHY
MEN AT LEADING HOTELS.

Chicago, ILL.,, March S.-Robert @
Watson, known TO the police as the
million dollar forgar," was arrest
ell here on warrant charging him
with having obtained from mer-
chants and real estate dealers OF Oak
Park, suburb, a large amount Of
money on worthless checks.
1T is not new experience for
Watson TO be under arrest. He has
given occupation of the police of
army cities turing the last twenty
eight years, and his record shows
that ne has used at least four hun
dred aliases. The police say tina;
Watson has made more than a mill
ion dollars by his forgeries.
G.. Whittier Gale, OF a real estate
corcern, is the complainant against
Watson. He says that Watson was
trying to work a confidence game
on him. The arrest took place when
Watson went to Gales office to buy
land worth SIS, 200. He intended
to give check In payment.
Watson operated here under the
name of Robert Forest. 1t is as
easy, the police say, for him to
change his name as it is for a wo.
man to change her mind. He as.
spmes names in alphabetical order
ri timing through fro ma TO Y. Eight
OF his aliases began with B and thir.
teen Of them with II. Hg had ex
haUsted the alphabet many time.
Attent on was drawn to Watzor
last Monday, the police say, whe,
ne gave e check to o. ID. Allen a
real estate dealer in payment FOL
twenty acres of land. He also pur
chased a hme site fro $1,000 from
Frank Jones, paying by check. i
IS now al eyed that the checks are
worthless. They were drawn on the
first National Bank of Boston.
Detectives say that Watson ha.
masqueraded az a preacher, a Jour
nslist, printer, a publisher. a pain
." and a real estate dealer He al
ways lives in good style, stopping a
first class hote's, spending none,
freely and hobnobbing with men O
