REGULARS AND IRREGULARs.

In the political contest that Is being
fought between the factions in this
state the question that will have to
he settled at the polls in August and
November is whether the reins Of gov
eminent shall be placed in the hands
Of a regular clean-cut Democratic ad-
ministration or in the hands of an
irregular administration composed Of
irregular Democrats and the control
ling faction of the Republican party.
The question is one that will re-
quire sober thought. Tennessee has
been governed by Democrats for many
years, and is looked upon as a safe
democratic state, in both state and ma
tional elections. The independent can
didates in the contest to be decided
in August all claim to be Democrats.
They even claim to be the only simon
pure Democrats in Tennessee, but such
a claim is not taken seriously. Nc
one will argue for a minute that they
are not Democrats, but whether they
are or not is not the vital point al
issue; what the voter must decide is
which faction can serve the people
best.
We look upon the independents a.
we would fretful children who have
said they would not stay with theil
parents, and upon meeting other chill
dren around the corner had told thei,
little story and they all agreed Il
break away from their parents; bu
as night grew on they realized thei
folly and returned with a smile ant
promised to be good.
The old line Democrats in Tennes
see constitute the parent body of de
mocracy in this state. They hav
proven that they can run the govern
ment of the commonwealth success
fully, while the Independents wit
their theories would be an exper
ment that might result in great il
jury to the people.
The Negro voters have proven i
the past few years that they stan
for progress, and they have decide
to cast their votes for those me
whom they believe to be best qualifie
to perpetuate the progressive spiri
that is so evident in Tennessee to-day

assured that the Negroes Of the gran

Birds Sense of Direction

The migratory instinct of birds is
combined with another equally mystic
rious, that of the sense of direction. A
gentleman engaged in scientific re-
search work for the fishery board on

Seeker recorded very interesting OBJ
servation he made of this character
istic of migratory bird life An oyster
catcher that was being buffeted by a
head wind in it's eastern flight across
the North sea toward the continental
shores, alighted on the boat. 1t took
kindly to the attention paid to IL so
long as the boat kept it's easterIy
course but when the course OF the
boat was altered a few points TO the
northward the bird immediateIv
showed signs of uneasiness and after
an apparent consideration of its bear
ings flew into the darkness of the night
on its eastbound course. The altera-
tion In the boats course was revealed
TO those who We're watching the bird

An Epitaph ON a Robin Red
Breast

Tread lightly here, for here, tbs said
When piping winds are hush'd around,
Where now his tiny bones are laid.
Nor more in lone or leafess groves,
With ruff1ed wing and faded breast,
His friendless, homeless spirit roves;
Gone TO the world where birds are blest
Where never eat glides DER the green.
Or schoolboy's giant form Is seen;
But love and joy and smiling spring
Inspires their little souls TO sing!
