TO CAPTURE TENNESSEE

Beverly. Mass, August 13.-President
Taft had for a visitor yesterday Sena-
tor Aldrich Of Rhode Island. who spent
several hours in consultation with the
President.
& Senator A1drich's mission was to
confer with Mr.. Taft and Jay plans for
the capture of Tennessee from the
emocrats at the state election this fall.
They went over the ground thoroughly
and mapped out plans. meaning to take
advantage OF the disturbed conditions
which obtain in the democratic ranks.
Mr.. Aldrich told the president that the
republican party had a better chance
to capture Tennessee this fall than it
has had in many years, owing to the
dissatisfaction caused by the independ-
ent uprising against Governor Patter-
son.

inee for governor Of Tennessee. came
out with statement last night in
which he said that he was willing to
enter another primary against any man

might put forth as candidate for the

lar election on next November. the
nominee OF the special primary.
Governor Patterson makes this con-
cession because his ticket for the ju-
dietary was. at the democratic prima-

independent faction. The Independents
have made up their minds to place an
Independent candidate in the field
against the governor at the regular
election. but in view OF his offer may

CIGARETTE EVIL SPREADING
Hundreds Of Society Women Have
Formed the Habit


New York, August 13.-In an appeal
to the club women OF the country to aid
her crusade against the influence of
Demon Nicotine among the women of
this nation, Miss Lucy Page CASTOR, of
Chicago, declared that not only was
the cigarette habit increasing among
the gentler sex, but asserted that the
practice among women had grown to
such lengths that many no longer were
satisfied with mere cigarettes, but had
become inveterate patrons Of cigars.
She spoke in vehement terms Of what
she called the "pernicious influence"
being constantly exerted by publicity
given to cigarette smoking by Alice
Roosevelt Longworth and Miss Eleanor
Sears, the famous golfer and social ia
vorite of Boston.
''The cigarette habit is growing rap
idly among the college girls" said Miss
CASTOR. "and 1t is high time that some
thing was done to check It."
The cigarette habit among women
has spread to Chicago, and 1t is quite
common among society folks. But 1
guess from all I hear that 1T is much
worse in New York. and one OF the
first things I shall do when I get my
organization perfected this fall will be
to appeal to members of the Colony
Club here. I understand that most OF
its members Of high social standing
are cigarette users.

arettes to quiet their nerves. as many

THE COMMISSION PLAN.

The commission plan OF city govern
ment has spread more rapidly than
most people are aware Of II was
adopted by Galveston. when that city.
after the destruction, was under the ne
cessity OF instituting economy In the ex-
penditures and honesty in the manage
ment OF public affairs. The citizens of
Galveston knew by experience. as do
other American citizens. something of
the methods OF machine government.
and they adopted the commission plan
as an emergency measure That was
ten years ago. Today about seventy
cities Of the United States have adopt
ed the same plan, with more or less es-
sential notifications.
The Engineering News Of May 26
gives list of the cities that had adopt
ed the new plan UP to March is. this
year Among these there are II in
Texas, Is In Kansas, in Iowa and 4
in Tennessee. There are 3 In California,
2 In Idaho, and I'm Colorado. Most of
these cities are OF small size. but Mem
phis, Tenn. and st. Joseph. Mo, have
over 100, 600 inhabitants. and Des
Molnes. Ia. Kansas city, Kas., and San
Antonio, Tex, have over $1,000 each.
while a great many had between $4,000
and $1,000 by the last census.
A number OF cities. the Engineering
News adds, have not been willing TO go
the entire length of the commission
plan. but they have adopted some of
it's features and particularly the small
city council and the elimination of the
partisan feature of city elections. The
most notable example OF this sort is
Boston. which within the past few
months has changed from bicameral
city council OF well toward hundred
members, to a single-chambered council
of only nine members. all elected at
large; while at the same time adopting
nomination by petition as means OF

LoRIsIER's DENIAL.

his expected denial that he had bribed
his way into the United states Senate
but unfortunately. almost at the very
moment he was speaking, legislators
were being indicted and arrested in
Illinois for having taken trbes to
vote for him. This may be only an un-
lucky coincidence. Mr. I>orimer has
called for an Investigation OF the
charges against him, and the Senate
committee on Elections IL bound TO
probe tho matter. Pending the result
OF such inquiry final judgment must be
withheld. There can he no reasonable
question, after what has been already
shown by the prosecuting authorities in
Illinois. that the Senatorial election
