CAUSE OF ACCIDENT.

WASHINGTON, March 23.--The
hulk of the Inflated battleship Maine,
sunk in the harbor of Havana, will be
raised 80 that the remains OF the sail
or dead that may be within the wreck
may be recovered and SO that an exam
nation may be made to determine, IL
possible, the manner in which the YES

and forgotten nothing. He has re.

which so long dominated and dictat-
ed the course OF his party. He scorn-
ed to treat with the insurgents; party
treason to him is the blacklist crime

sin. Cannon has neither developed

RECKLESS SPEEDING.

The automobile has come TO stay;
It will soon be necessity. 1t Is i'm
portant that the best of feeling should
be maintained between the minority
who have machines and the great ma
jority who cannot own them, and prob
ably will not be able to do so until
the price is very much less than 1t Is
today. This harmonious relation can
only be secured by a just and
fair recognition of mutual rights.
Machines are multiplying very rap
Idly in Columbia and already there is
complaint that the drivers are reck-
less and apparently unconcerned as
TO the rights of pedestrians. This is
unfortunate.
The greatest care should be exercis-
ed by auto drivers within the limits
Of Columbia to prevent accidents.
Although not large city, Columbia's
population is congested. The streets
are used a great deal, perhaps too
much, as a play ground for the chill
dren. 1t is therefore of the highest
importance that every care should be
exercised and every precaution taken
by automobile owners to prevent &C
cidents. One serious accident as the
result of carelessness or Indifference
to the rights of others would perhaps
result in drastic legislation that might
seriously cripple the industry locally
and generate a prejudice that would +
be exceedingly unfortunate An ounce
OF prevention is worth a pound Of
cure and of all people none should
take this homely advice more to heart
than the auto owners and drivers. r

THE BOARD OF TRADE.

Although the Maury County Board
OF Trade is less than two weeks old II
now numbers nearly $50 members and
is one OF the liveliest youngsters in
this section. The prospects for an
organization here that win be Of ma
terial benefit 70 the city and county
were never better. All that is nee
essary to realize the most sanguine
hopes Of the promoters Of the organ
iEatiOn is a long pull. strong pull and
q pull altogether upon the part OF the
members In union there is always
strength.
In every way possible the Board of
Trade should encourage the patron
age OF home industry. Too many of
our. citizens are lacking in that spir-
It of loyalty and civic pride that makes
for the upbulding of our own. There
is altogether too much money going
to Nashville and to other cities for
merchandise that can be purchased
just as cheagly and just as satisfac-
torily at Columbia
II is to be hoped that no spirit of
rivalry nor jealousy will be permitted |
TO disturb the harmonious relations |
that ought to exist among the mem
bers of the Board. II this organiza-
ton shall prove Of benefit to Column
bia every business man in the city
will in some degree at least, be bene-
Aciary. The Herald, in season and
out, in sunshine and in rain stands
for Columbia first, last and all the
time. 1t is constantly boosting the
town and urging people to patronize
home industry. And yet there are
merchants in Columbia who never
spend one single cent for the support
Of The Herald. But this paper realizes
that their prosperity means greater
for the general community
and it is not going to allow any lack
Of support upon the part Of faction
Of the community to dampen it's spir-
II Of ardor and loyalty for the entire
city And this is the spirit that we
ali sincerely hope will be the domi-
nant note of the Board Of Trade.

FIRE INSURANCE LOSSES.

II is gratifying to know that the
IRE losses in Tennessee we're about
100000 less last year than they were
during the proceeding year and less
by several thousand dollars than
they have been in any year for the
past ten However the losses were
entirely too great. Over 100000
10 a tremendous sum to go UP IN
flames in 9 single year. Whatever
IL lost by fire to that extent reduces
the supply Of the worlds material.
II is a complete loss.
Policy holders will be interested In
knowing that during the year there
was a slight reduction in the insur-
ance premium rate. The average for
the State Is now Isl which is mani
testify too high but II Is reasonable
70 except that with a constantly de-
creasing loss ratio the premium rate
will fall. This has been the result
in other States and there is no reason
TO believe that Tennessee will be the
exception.
As q general proposition the insuR
ance companies doing business in
Tennessee last year made money The

TEXAS BABY RIDES ON
TRUCK OF FAST EXPRESS

A newspaper reporter from Calves
ton has it hat a baby fifteen months
old rode over one hundred miles on the
trucks of an express train. 1t was a
risky trip for the baby. But babies
even at home run great risk from ba-
by ailments. Especially at the APP
proach of summer If there is baby

DOWNFALL OF CANNON.

It was a long time coming but II
came at last The result was inevi-
table. The system of which Cannon
was the head and the embodiment
could not withstand the sentiment
that has swept the country during
, the past five or six years and which
| had it's inception in protest against
political machines; the domination
of cliques and the rule of party
bosses. It has been we'll said that
Congress is the last place to feel the
effect of public sentiment The long
delayed victory of the protestants
against Cannonism well illustrates
the truth Of this charge. In New York,
in Illinois. in Kansas, in Wisconsin
and even in Massachusetts the revolt
against the old Republicanism OF priv
ilege, OF patronage, Of machines and
cliques has succeeded Every where
machines are crumbling; cliques are
be dethroned. the voice of the people
is becoming more potent than the will
of the bosses
Joe Cannon is typical representa-
tive Of the old Stalwarts of the Re-
publican party. He has served his
well. He Is Of that fast
decreasing but once numerous class
who believe or affect to believe that
the organization can do no wrong.
Cannon is sincere. He holds It the |
first duty of Republican to be loyal
to the machine, to do its bidding is
the highest duty, aye, the chief aim
of Representative. He has follow
ed the varying fortunes Of his party
with answering fidelity; he has &C
copied its decres with unfaltering
loyalty; he has executed its orders
with devotion and a consistency
worthy Of a better cause.
There is something pathetic in the
downfall Of Cannon We have never
admired the man nor his methods.
But he is one OF the ablest. one or
he bravest and one Of the grimmest
u warriors of the type which ruled
he Republican party from the death
4 Lincoln until the advent Of Roose- {
'elt. He was the creature Of sys- 1
EN-. He was its embodiment. He
vas no worse than the system. But q
10 must suffer for It's sins. He is Of {
mother day and generation. Like

ratio q loss 70 premiums received
vas less than hfty per cent The
year before they we're almost sixty
per cent The Insurance companies
claim that heir business costs them
forty per cent and that a loss ratio
or over sixty per cent puts their
balance on The wrong side Of the
ledger. Accepting this estimates as
correct il j. evident that insurance
premiums eodld be further reduced
without entailing a loss upon the
companies.
The report Of the insurance commits
sioner speaks volumes for the admins
tration Of that once. Il is a strik-
ing testimonial TO the efficiency Of
the fire marshal law passed on the
recommendation Of Commissioner
Folk. With the exercise OF more
care on the part Of agents. a rigid en-
torcement Of the fire marshal law
and more attention to the construc-
ion Of buildings the IRE losses in Ten
1essee can soon be reduced to the
minimum.

RAISE Broom CORN.
SAYS the sit Pleasant Record:

SAYS the SIT Pleasant Record:
@Maury county farmers should Try
a crop Of broom corn. II Is very high
and in great demand Our soil is
adapted 20 its culture and il requires
no more labor than a crop Of ordina.
~ corn until the harvest comes. Let
some Of our progressive farmers try
a few acres OF it,"
This is a good suggestion and one
worthy Of consideration. The years
supply Of broom corn is practically ex-
hausted and we are yet several
months from the harvest time. Prices
OF broOms have advanced more than
a hundred per cent within a short
time and the end is not yet in sight.
Dollar brooms are freely predicted.
Maury county soil will produce any
thing and its yield of broom corn
should be immense. With anything
like the present prices the profits
would be ve-T much greater than |
those derived from any other crop Of
similar character. The planting Of q |
crop Of broom corn in this county will
add another to our already long list
Of profitable industries If the crop is
sufficient the product is certain to be
taken and Manufactured right in Co
umbia And that would be still an
,ther profitable business for the city
n every aspect the suggestion made
" our neighbor is deserving the most
.arnest consideration.

A MoNsTRous PROPOSITION.

In the coUse of special from
Nashville to the Knoxville Journal
and Tribune of last week anent the
| political situation in Tennessee this
rather significant statement is made:
1T is the general impression that Gov
Patterson will make known his inten-
tons Immediately the court acts in
the Cooper case, hence the lively in
terest in the courts action" Com
menting on this special the Knoxville
paper says:
"One thing in the Journal AMI Trib-
unes Nashville special, printed yester-
day morning, must have struck the av-
erage reader as singular The dis
patch reads 1t is the general impress
sion that Gov. Patterson will make
known his intentions Immediately the
court acts in this case, hence lively

refers to the action of the Supreme
court in the case of the Coopers for
killing Senator Carmack. The uninitiat- |
ed will wonder what the possible ac-
ton of the Supreme Court in that case |
has to do with Governor Patterson's |
