God, the righteous Judge, shall give
you in that day Amen"
As has been said. the king Of Eng
land is king before he is crowned. But
this was not always so. In the olden
days it was an Indispensable rite, to-
gether with the amounting with the sa-
cred oil. the investlture with the roy
al robe and the delivery Of the orb, the
presenting Of the spurs and sword. the
investiture with the ring and the scep-
ter, the enforcement in the historic
chair and the other curious and ancient
ceremonials. No king was considered
firmly fixed in his throne until he went
these ceremonies or others anal
Ogous TO them. Some Of the older kings
Of England indeed FASTENED to be
crowned as soon as possible in order to
establish more firmly before the people
their rights to the crown. Even when
other claimants had better causes and
proceeded to establish their rights by
might Of sword it was considered a
great point Of advantage for the occu-
pant OF the throne that he had been
duly and solemnly crowned. With the
modern establishment Of undisputed
lines Of descent and the remoteness Of
the possibility OF any one instituting a
successful contest for the throne the
coronation has lost It's Importance, but

and brother to every other scout, no
matter to what social class the other
belongs.
F1fth.-A scout is courteous.
Sixth.-A scout is a friend to ami

Seventh-A scout obeys orders Of

Eighth.-A scout smiles and whistles

Ninth.-A scout is thrifty.
The pledge that the boy scout takes
IS:
Il viii do my duty to God and my
country. I will do my best to help
others, whatever IT costs me- l know
the scout law and will obey It."
The British lads throughout the en-
pire have taken very kindly indeed to
the idea. The elements Of chivalry
and mutual self helpfulness appeal to
them strongly, and their patriotism is
aroused by the idea that their train
ing helps to fit them for active service

The work of John G. Mobley as

the administration of Mr.. Mobley.

"Whereas the Hon. John C. Mobley,
the retiring president, who has sue
cessfully completed his third term as
president Of the society, and whose
brilliant administration is marked

Therefore be it resolved by the

Special Primary UncaIled for.

The Legislature concluded long
and stormy session last Saturday.
Little important legislation was
done, the time being consumed in
chickering's over the election of a
United States Senator, followed by
investigations of corruption result
ing therefrom. Factional politics
has cost the State much money
this legislative inning. Instead
of devoteing time to the enactment
of laws. that body contested which
factional fayorite should come out
on top. The result was charges of
corruption, -subjecting the State
to shameful criticism. One of its
last acts was the adoption Of a
resolution. indicating the Sena-
torial election of corruption. Such
resolutions come as sequences.
The Legislature elected the Sena-
tor and vindication of its act is
logical and natural. but the declar-
alton is not satisfying. Already
the contestipg factions have
arranged to submit the question in
primary election next November.
1t may not have occurred to the
legislature that it will be tried
along with the question in that
election. Should the verdict be
against Percy. it wonld amount to
Reputation OF that body.
It were wise If the Democratic
State Committee would decline to
leah the election. A primary un.
der such circumstances would be
illtimed and illadvised. and could
serve no good purpose in furtherance
Of good government or purifcation

tensify factional feeling and gratify

Justice wept when Patterson par
doned Dune Cooper, the slayer ol
+. w. Carmack. Attempting TO
wash out the stain, charity applied
the tears, and blotted Patterson s
record forever. Henceforth execu-
tive clemency, vested in men OF
predetermined ilk, will be dis
trusted by the votaries of right.
Partisan spirit. ruled by motives of
interest, defies all and does all for
self-preservatioh in a crisis. To
this poirt, Governor Patterson IS
career had come. ALIGNED with a
faction, Of which Cooper and his
friends were recognized leaders, he
defed all and did all to retain
their friendship. lie arrogated SUI
pc rior wisdom 10 the juries and
courts of his state, pronounced
them in error, and without even a
formal petition. set aside their de-
crees, and turned the convict loose.
History holds no parallel of such
travesty on justice. nor record of
super-erogation to constituted tri-
bunals in granting clemeney. But
Patterson's predicament was des-
perate. In desperation only do
men go against rules Of right or
principles of the correct thinking
world. Patterson's political cloak
was dropping from his shoulders
To arrest its fall, he trailed it in
the mire, where it will rot piece
meal with his own decadence. Not
only does Tennessee feel this flaunt
in the face OF her people and her
courts. Her sister states are af.
fected that what has happened
there may happen in them also, APP
pretending that, after all, the ends
of justice are with the executive.
and if he fail. justice also fails.
The fall of Patterson is not coeyal
with his pardon of Dune Cooper.
1t antedates to the time of his af-
filiation with a faction. pledged to
force whiskey on a dissenting peo-
pie. Out of that contention. Car
mack lost his life and Patterson
his political reputation. None are
surprised that he pardoned Cooper.
All who knew the motive of the
killing and Gov. Patterson sew
eral relations to the Coopers, be-
lieved that he would pardon them
for Staying his rival. The blood
of the innocent cries out unavenged
to the people of Tennessee. Their
institutions, the courts, decreed
avengement, but abortive executive
clemency voided it all. For that
act alone, the people of Tennessee
should vote Paterson's political doom
at the polls. The man who is wiser
than juries, wiser than courts, wiser
than the people, and more comp
etent to Judge of testimony than all
the world besides. is unfit to exer-
else executive clemency, and is a
menace to the administration of
Justice.

fine times publishing interviews with
Republicans" who are going to vote
the Democratic ticket for the first
time. One of these interviews" was
brought forth with great eclat few

shows that this particular "Republi-

for six years at least and is considered
by both parties as one Of the most ac-
tive Democrats in the town in which
he resides. This particular "Republi-
