Dr.. ]. L. Shirley
a Candidate

Elsewhere we announce DR.. J. L.
Shirley, of Whitwell, as a candidate
for representative against Mr.. S. II.
Raulston, the republican nominee.
We are not personally acquainted with
Mr.. Raulston. but know DR.. Shirley
we'll. He is an accomplished angler,
and in fishing for the legislative hon
or, he may succeed in landing many
votes that Mr.. Raulston is also after.
DIR. Shirley is mentioned as being put
out by the harmony democrats, fol-
lowing which commenced with Pat
terson's resignation, which includes
the Patterson people and a number
who are going to bolt the assistance
accorded them by the republicans in
eleoting judges. Others say that he is
an out and out independent. We don't
know and are getting awfully tired of
these fine distinctions among demo-
Gratis. All we want is good level
headed temperance man to represent
Marion in the next general assembly.
The following regarding DIR. Shir-
ley is from the So. Pittsburg Hustler:
I'm another column we print the
of DR.. j i. Shirley, of
Whitwell, as candidate to represent
Marion county in the next General
Assembly of Tennessee. DR.. Shirley
was given the endorsement of the dem
ocratic harmony convention last Satur-
day at Jasper. He will make the race
on the democratic platform, whatever
it may be as adopted by the state con-
vention which is called for Oct 9Th
He is fully qualified from an intellect
ual standpoint to represent the county
and if elected he would no doubt lend
his entire time and influence to the
neutrality-suspicious. of his constitu-
ency and the state at large.

1t is amusing to note how pertinac-
iously the drink journals defend
Pattersonism. Booze and Patterson
will be synonymous terms in future
unless the disease is nip
ped now. No one can say that it is
best to have liquor joints in town if
the people want it. They may say it
means shekles, that it means revenue
from taxes, that it means free moral
agency-some enormously call it DEM
ocracy-but after all is it good" in
the sense that the Lord said after he
had created heaven and earth and was
resting on the seventh day2

CANT BE WORSE

/
says the ignorant. the prejudiced. and
many who are honest but party blind.
For the benefit of those who may be
honest enough to accept the truth l
herewith give you some statistics,
showing what the democratic and re-
publican parties have done toward
destroying the home. The Stats
tics of 1910 show the following:
That per cent. of the families own
So per cent of total wealth; that 10
per cent of the rich own 80 per cent.
of total wealth. that 80 per cent. of
the middle class own ID per cent of
the total wealth; while so per cent of
the poor own nothing.
Now read these again and again un-
til You will never forget them till you
receive the report of the 1910 census,
which will prove a far greater per
centage of our families homeless
This is not the only proof we nave
of their destruction of American
homes, for in 1900 there were 6, 1870, O69
over ten years of age unable to read
and write in this country. This is a
hard showing in what is known as the
greatest civilization. 1t seems to a
Socialist that an education should be
given to every child born, and guaran.
teed to the unborn for the benefit of
society, if for no other reason.
What will be the effect on the homes
Of the future made up of these six mil
lion illiterate persons2 Is society bet
ter or worse for their having lived,
and is our government what it should
be, when it forces its people into in
voluntary ignoranceY This is not all.
In 1900 there were $50, 900 prosti-
tutes in this government of tours"
Twenty million dollars year is made
by prostitution in Chicago alone. The
average life of the prostitute is five
years. Three-fourths of the $50, 600 |
are shared and trapped. bought and
sold in this, the best government of
the world" Socialists could not make
worse showing. This, to my mind is
destroying the homes and future
homes, all for profits sake. I might |
go on and show many other reasons
why the charge already exists under
"our" form Of government as truth, |
and you only have to open your eyes
and investigate to find that those who |
make this charge against Socialism are
already guilty.
Socialism will make it possible for
every man to become home owner,
but under Capitalism it is impossible.
Socialism will make it impossible for
one to live by the sweat of his broth
er's face, as now under capitalism.
Socialism will make it possible for ev-
cry person to help themselves, and
thereby help society, instead of as now
under capitalism, beg, steal or starve.
Socialism says, what man cannot and
does not create, that he should not be
allowed to own instead as now under
one man produces for the
oilers.
Socialism is love of self, love of So
ciety four brothers), love of country,
and our God, and everything dear to
BUR homes. Greater love hath no
man than this, that he give'his life for
mis- friends" ''No man liveth unto

A negro was hanged in Nashville
Monday who only woke up to the fact
that he had killed his sister-in-law
when he grew sober after the tragedy.
Thus whiskey caused the tragedy. The
next thing after the man was appre-
hended should have been to secure the
person of the individual who sold that
negro whiskey. Then the next step
should have been to hang him instead
of the negro. This would put down
whiskey selling,
