Gov. Patterson's Reasons.

The measure presented for my ap-
proval not only denies these commun-
tiles right to be heard, but arbi-
trarily forces upon them a law which
they do not want and to which they
will never willingly consent.
Would those who voted for this bill
TO become a law have done so If any
right of their own locality was in
volved?
Would they not resent Interference
by other members If conditions were
reversed, and bitterly assail the tyr
annical exercise of a power which
would deprive the people of their own
communities of a voice 10 their own
affairs.
As a democratic governor I feel II
duty and a sacred obligation TO sus.
tain the platform of the democratic
party. which distinctly states the doc
trines of local self government. and
this measure directly opposes, defes
and destroys it.
AS the governor Of all the people,
holding my commission from the ma,
iorty. I protest in their name against
an act which will set aside and hold
for naueht their recorded will
| will not approve a law, by what
ever name it may be called or what
ever mistaken notions of morality
may have influenced II, which will
destroy property, reduce the revenues
of the state, increase taxation, take
the money OF our people ard send It
abroad, foment discord instead of pro-
noting peace, and impair the dignity
of the commonwealth.
In the name Of Temperance refuse
assent to an Incorporate measure,
which will cause more evil than II
rretends to cure, and in the name OF
morality | will not sane ion a iaw
that will foster hypocrisy and invite

VETOED BY GOVERNOR PATTER-
SON OF TENNESSEE, AFTER
PASSING SENATE.
VETO MAY Be SUSTAINED
Opponents OF the Bill Count on a
Change-Three Senators Are Won

Whom Vote Depends, is Wavering.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 2l.--Goyernor
Patterson this afternoon filed with
the clerk of the senate message
vetoing the statewide prohibition bill
which last week was passed by both
houses of the legislature. The COVER
nor's action followed adjournment Of
the senate after it. had passed on
third reading the bill prohibirng :hc
manufacture in Tennessee of ibtoXi-
eating liquor. Consequently the ye,o
will be read to the state tomorrow
morning. when 1t must be sustained
or the bill passed over the executive
protest. On original passas, ,ne vote
was 20 to 10. Opponents of .he bill
claim tonight that they can count on
a change of three senators to the
side and that the fourth member. on
whose vote the fate OF the measure
depends. Is wavering. Shonld there
be change of four votes the veto
would be sustained by II to l6 The
bill is made effective July /, 1909.
The bill prohibiting the manufac-
ture of liquor was amended so as to
become effective January |, 1910, and
the vote was 20 TO - on this bill also.
With the two laws on the statute
books property worth many millions
would be made practically worthless.
Nashville, Memphis and Chattanooga
are the only cities that would be af-
fected by bills prohibiting the sale of
liquor. as local option laws are al
ready in effect practically through
out the state.
In his veto message Governor Pat
terson charges that such legislation
Is against the democratic platform
and the doctrine OF self government;
that it sets aside the recorded will of
the people, that experience has taught
that no arbitrary prohibition law was
ever \effectively obeyed and its en-
actment brings no settlement of the
question: that It destroys property,
reduces state revenues, increases
taxation, takes money from the peo-
pie TO send it elsewhere foments dis
cord, lmpairs the dignity of the com
monwealth. fosters hypocrisy and in
vites evasion and deceit in the peo-
pie.

Candidates Ready For
Slaughter Tomorrow

The preliminary skirmish of
the congressional aspirants In
Pierce county will end tomorrow
with the STRAW" primary, at
which Pierce county's candidate
will be selected to go to the dis.
trict convention.
Won't Cut Much Figure.
Several of the candidaes ex-
press great confidence in their
own ability to get the votes.
Frank Latcham is pop sure he
has the whole bunch skinned" !"
but no one else seems to be taxi
ing his candidacy seriously. Tom
Van Eaton of Eatonville has flood
ed the county with circulars with
his speech, the burden of which
is Fire the Jap" and he expects
this slogan to land him a winner
sure. In fact Tom has tipped It
off that he has the thing cHnched
with wrought iron spikes and It
can't get away from him. None
of the other candidates, however,
are losing any sleep over Vans
chances.
Link Davis has done more real
political gum-shoeing than all the
rest of the bunch combined, leav-
ing Latcham out of it, and Link
says confidentially that he is t
by good majority.
Coiner's Chances.
Coiner is one of the most en-
Enthusiastically boosted in the
bunch. He Is the idol of the Bolo
club, which he heads, and they
all are footing the Coiner horn
for all they are worth. They do
not seem to have made much
headway among the rank and file
of voters, however.
Assistant City Attorney Frank
r. Baker has made no campaign
owing to city work.
Jameson Stirs Things Up.
r. P. Jameson came into the
battle a little late, but he has been
stirring up some life. He is the
only man who has really told
what he will stand for. He has
issued a platform and it is the
most radical of them ALL. He is
against teh whole stand-pat bunch
and for progress and reform all
along the line.
The rank politicians will give
Jameson a wide berth. Just
how many votes he will get de-
pends on how serious the people
are In wanting the things he
stands for. As he has come out
for absolute prohibition he. will
get good support In the church
sections. His stand against trusts
and vested interests will also prob
ably cause some of the radical eIe-
ment to line up for him. Wheth-
er there will be enough to win
remains for the ballot box to
show.

Ashton Apparently Leads.

Ashtoh AhPBRhNht hLNooSs
General Ashton is the candidate
of the large business interests.
Petitions have been circulated and
the mill owners, prominent mer-
chants and realty holders and the
business classes generally seem 20
be down pretty unanimously on
his petitions. -
These elements always pull a
large crowd and today the chances
of Ashton look to be the best OF
all of them by good margin.
There appears to be but two
chances of defeating Ashton
one that the little politicians and
the slums line up strong enough
for Link Davis and the other that
the church and reform vote rallies
strong enough to win with jamie
son.
There is a chance that some Of
the anH.-Ashton men who realize
his good chances will vote for
Link Davis in the hope of defeat
ing Ashton, believing that it will
then be possible to defeat Davis
in the election by having the dem
ocrats nominate o. G. Ellis or
Maurice Longhrone, the theory
being that the entire church vote
of the district can be marshalled
against Davis If he should happen
to win the nomination.
