WASH DAY.

A great deal Of dirty linen, politi-
cal and Industrial, is being washed
in public, and washday is always
disagreeable. Too many of our citi-
zeDs, we fear, possess the childish
spirit OF enjoying the muss and
playing in the dirty water; when the
attention of all should be concen-
trated on getting the linen clean.

will depend upon the kind of men,

No political boss. Democrat or
Republican. ever received more
singing or a more deserved rebuke
than has Governor Patterson. OF
Tennessee Patterson is the man
who first tried to have the supreme
court of his state send back for a
new trial the case OF Duncan Cooper.
who was onvioted of killing former
Senator Carmack. A majority of
the court sustained the verdict. and
within a few hours Patterson issued
a pardon to Cooper.
Then the Democratic boss started
to eliminate the judges who had re
fused to do his bidding. Controlling
the Democratic party. he abolished
the special state convention at which
candidates were to be nominated.
The judges who had upheld the con-
viction were candidates for renomi-
nations. and they ran on an indie
pendent judicial ticket in the cleo
ton, and they won out.
Patterson is the Democratic nomi-
nee for governor. Tennessee is a
Democratic state. and IL has always
been regular" The election showed
there are enough independents to re-
buke in an unmistakable way a boss
who as governor would coerce and
|overturn the highest judicial
tribunal in the state. II remains to

There is still some reason to be-
lieve that Tennessee is due a place
with the a. other commonwealth OF
this land Governor Patterson has
been given a deserved rebuke. The
candidates put up by him for places
on the supreme court bench have
been soundly beaten. The people of
Tennessee very evidently have no
wish to aid and abet Governor Pat
terson in his attempt to punish the
court which did not degrade itself
by deciding in favor of the men who
murdered Senator Carmack. Judg-
ing by the treatment of his candi-
dates, II is evident that the people do
not indorse Patterson for his pardon
ing of the Coopers. Patterson soon
comes up for reelection. A fusion
candidate opposes him.
Patterson had he not the worst
record in all the world as an execu-
tive for pardoning murderers ought
not to get a vote in all Tennessee
for his crime against human society
in pardoning the men who killed
Carmack. Here is a care which de

Democrats
SteadfaSt.
Independent
stand

The state committee OF the indie
pendent Democrats. in calling a con-
vention to meet in Nashville on Sep
tember II, and in defer1ng all mat
tiers relating to the policies OF the
Democrats to that convention. acted
with discretion and wisdom.
While the individual members OF
the committee are in sympathy with,
and indorse. the fusion with the Re-
publcans, they deemed It expedient
for the peope to speak for them
selves in the good old Democratic
way to the end that the charge of
bOssism and machine control could
not be lodged against them.
When they, in the regular Demo
cratic way, called an old-time Demo-
cratic convention by the people.
they did right, for now those Demo
Gratis who are for law and order and
against Patterson, have an opportun-
ity to aid in forming permanent
Democratic organization from its
PROSTATE and degraded depths into
which 1t has been plunged. and, after
ule cltdnhnB anu ItBtHeIdtlHB pip-
cess is complete, go on as OF yore in
its conduct of the public affairs.
At that convention the people,
the agency Of their regular
ly appointed delegates. will do as
they please, without the dictation of
a boss, in the matter of indorsing or
Ben Hooper for gov
ernor and Gus Enloe for railroad
for it is assumed that
the convention will be practically
unanimous on that point, for the
one hundred and forty-odd thousand
persons who voted for the free judi
ciary and against insolent machine
domination will also be for the
fusion nominees for governor and
commissioner.
They were right in August. and |
they win be right in November
The Republicans aided the Demo-
Gratis in August, and the Democrats
will aid the Republicans in Novem-
Der. Nothing can stay the onward |
march. A patriotic spirit is IN com
mand, and a determined purpose
makes victory assured.-Nashville !

The Ten DAYS. Rule.

Governor Beckham in the Ken
lucky State Journal says: "The
curse of Kentucky legislation is the
paid lobbyist. Through the efforts
of the unreasonable pests meas
ures are defeated which should be
passed, and others are enacted into
laws which should be defeated.
Corrupt bargains and combinations
are made. and the will OF the peo-
pie defied. Let those who become
candidates for the legislature in the
future be required to pledge them
selves to vote for law abolishing
the paid lobbyist"
This is all very true, but there is
another thing that our law makers
should do. and that is to abolish the
rule in both the senate and the
house delegating to the committee
on rules what legislation should be
enacted during the last ten days of
each session of the legislature.
Under the provisions of our consti-
tuition a bill when offered must go
through a long course before IL be-
a law and in sixty day ses-
sion of the legislature a good par
can ward OF indef-
nitely good and wholesome legisla-
ton. : 81
When the session is drawing to a,
close and the committee on rules In
each house has charge of all legisla-
ton to be enacted IL is then that the
lobbyist gets in his work through
corrupt bargains and combinations.
