and an unc0mpromiSing hypOcrlte,
called for a basin of water to impress
upon the Jews that he was washing
away the stain of the part he had
played in cOndemning an innocent
man without proof and that on them
would fall the responsibility for the
act. But Plate had played falsely
with Justice, and the day of retribu-
ton was reserved for him, and he
got it.
The Military Court of Inquiry has
played in this Brownsville affair
role similar in its general aspects to
that of Plate. PLATE played to the
prejudice of the power of the Jews,
whom he thought might work his
undoing politically. He pandered to
prejudice at the expense of justice,
and the world now eXecrates his
weakness and will ever do so.
The Military Courts findings were
to be the last word in the matter,
and it threw away its one great
chance. Before Roosevelt's ghost or
shadow, which is looming upon the
political horizon of the affairs of this
country again, that court fell down,
ingloriously fell down. The court
was unable to fix the responsibility
on any soldier, yet it proclaims to
the world that Negro soldiers shot
ND the Texas town. 1t either over
looked or was insensible of the ride
ulous position it placed itself in to de-
clare that the evidence before 1t
showed that the soldiers were guilty
and yet could not show which sol
diers were guilty. How in the name
of the least common sense can a court
saw that a certain man committed a
certain crime unless it proves that
he did commit it? This court of in
ouiry has been caught squarely as
being incompetent to weigh unpre-
iudicially the stuff it had before 1t
and render it's findings in accordance
thereto.-J. d. CrenShG,0, in National

MAYOR HoWsE ISSUES PRocLA-
NATION FAVORING PUR-
CHASE OF STATE
FAIR.
Voters of City Are Urged to Go to
Polls

Mayor Hilary Howse Wednesday
issued a proclamation urging the
voters of Davidson County to go to
the polls and vote for the purchase Of
the property of the Tennessee State
Fair Association, which will be de-
cided by an expression of the people
April 81
The County Court some time ago
agreed by the introduction of reso-
luton, to submit the proposition to
the people. The price asked is
$150.000. The issue April Fl is
whether or not bonds will be voted
to purchase the property.
If the property is purchased it will
be bought with the sole purpose Of
holding an annual State Fair in Ten
nessee. Ut means not only per-
manent State Fair, but vast en-
largement nd amuch Improvement
over all former annual occasions.
For that reason Mayor Howse be-
lieves it to be an excellent invest
ment for the people of Davidson
County. He urges that al lvoters go
to the polls, that the business men,
manufacturers and merchants allow
their employees to turn out and ex-
press their wishes on the PROPOSE
ton that means so much not only to
Davidson County, but to the entire
State.
Mayor Howse's proclamation is as
| follows:
ION Thursday, April 81, 1910, the
people of Davidson County will vote
upon the question whether or not Da-
wilson County will issue bonds for
the purchase of the property of the
| Tennessee State Fair Association,
with the object in view that said
property shall be used for the State
of Tennessee for the purpose of hold
ing thereon annual State fairs.
"This proposition, if carried, will
insure the permanency as well as
the enlargement of the State Fair
at Nashville and the permanent
maintenance of the State Fair at
Nashville will advance the material
interest and promote the general well
fare of the citizens of Nashville and
Davidson County, exciting industry,
thrift, development and worthy emu
lation in different avenues of COM
merce, agriculture, manufactures and
education within the county, and in
sure increased intelligence, welfare
and happiness for our people.
"As the Mayor of the city of Nash
Vile and with the best interest of
the city and county uppermost in my
mind, l hereby earnestly request that
the heads of all city departments as
we'll as the business men, manufac-
turers, merchants and all employers
of labor give their employees an op-
portunity to go to the polls on Thurs
day, April 81, 1910, and vote for this
highly meritorious proposition.

Military Courts Unjust Findings.

Military Courts Unjust Findings.
The Military Court of Inquiry has
given out its findings in that Browns
Vile, Texas, affair which has been
such nightmare to some people IN
authority in this country who have
devoutly tried to saddle it on the Ne
gro soldiers. Yes, they have labored
assiduously and insidiously and con-
tinuously, in season and out, day and
night, to make the responsibility for
that episode stick to the great Negro
fighters, but all efforts, and they have
been many and strenuous in that
direction, have been utterly futile.
The dogged persistency with which
this last court, composed of high IT,
tied military dignitaries from cap
tain to acknowledgement, has
sought to build up case just any
how out of one that frustrated and
staggered into silence the great Roose'
welt regime, was worthy of better
and ulster cause. This puissant mil
itary court forgot or ignored the fact
that the white commissioned officers
who had command of the troops of
the Twenty-fifth had been absolved
from all blame touching that affair.
To give their findings in the case
some air of justification or tolerance
the court proceeds to abuse the non
commissioned officers and the men Of
the line.
Sacred history furnishes another
example of the crying need of testi-
mony to insure conviction. When the
Great Nazarene was shifted from
court to court until he was adjudged
finally by PLATE, it was for no other
reason than to give the Jews chance
to hatch up some sort of evidence
that would partially stand the test
before the bias Sanhedrin. The out
come of Jesus many trials was that
he was found guilty. But guilty OF
what? Not one of the courts before
which he appeared was able to find
in Him any guilt The deep-preju
diced Jews yell out their answer as
to the Lords crime or guilt by shout
ing, Away with him! cruelty him!
Devilish Plate, the synonym Of COW
ardice, sentenced the Son of Man as
being guilty of the crime with which
he had been charged by the Jews
though the charge had been unsup
ported by an iota of reasonable tes
timOny. He, then, carping crave1

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES.

Some of our friends are surprised
when we tell them that we would con-
slider it a great favor if they would
not ask us to accept articles treating
on subjects of purely personal ma
ture. Our policy has been to labor
for peace and harmony, for we be-
lieve that if we can make the people
see the wisdom in being at peace one
with the other, it will be an easy
matter to get them to unite on all
things that affect the whole people.
It is emminently essential that har-
mony prevail among the people.

see to it that more of their individual

1t is a fact that most of the clubs
who get the largest amount of space

THE MAYORS PROCLAMATION.


We especially call the attention Of
our readers in Davidson County and
the city Nashville to the proclamation
issued by Mayor Howse, in which the
business men are urged to encourage
the people to go to the polls on the
21st of this month, which will be
Thursday of next week, and vote for
the permanent location of the State
Fair grounds. The citizens are asked
to sanction the appropriation of $780,
600 with which to purchase the prop
erty of the State Fair Association,
more Familiarity known as Cumber-
land Park. We concur in the course
being pursued by the Mayor, and be-
lieve that it will be wisdom upon the
part of every voter to see to it that
he cast his vote for the proposition.
We feel that every one living in Dav-
idson County should be interested in
the development of this community
first of all in the world.
The annual meeting of a state fair
means much to any county or city.
Thousands come each day to visit
such an exhibition, and are brought
in touch with the most progressive
people of the commonwealth, and
those from other states. These Wis
itors bring thousands of dollars to
a city, and being out to mingle pleas
ire with business, they are not stingy
with their means; and too, the mer'
chants of the city where these visi
tors congregate have splendid oppor
tunity to show their wares to good
advantage more so than can be done
by drummers.
The working man thrives in com
munity in proportion as the business
man prospers; therefore, the perma
nent location of the State Fai,
grounds in Davidson County means
as much to one class of citizens a.
another. Mayor Howse is to be com
mendod for the progressive spirit h
exhibits on behalf of the city of Nash
vile and the welfare of all her cit
zens, and we believe his course vii
be literally approved in this matter
