HARMONY DISTURBERS.

1t will be observed that the men whC
are so frantically insisting upon facti
tious agitation about "harmony" are
the very men who have done most to
disturb democratic harmony in Ten
nessee. They did everything in their
power to defeat the democratic party
last year and succeeded in doing so by
coliusion with the republican party.
The Barton committee placed itself in
close and fraternal fellowship with the
republican state committee and united
in a joint campaign to defeat the dem
ocracy, and his fellowship with the re-
now, these men, still boasting of the
'fruits of their victories" over the or.
gained democracy, affect holy horror
of fear that the democras will not get
together! They have done everything
possible up TO this time to keep demo-
crate of the state are really and surely
coming together of their own accord,
without regard TO the past differences,
these sleaders," who have been leaders
only in promoting dis harmony, be-
come terribly agitated, and declare
through the Tennessean, the Hooper
organ, that all democrats who do not
agree to their dictation are ''obdurate
ringsters."
Now, are not these leaders, whose
leadership has been only in conjunc-
tion with republicans to defeat the
democratic party, in a perty posit ion
to brand all democrats who do not
accept their leadership as "ringsters?"
They object to having the democrats of
the state come together naturally of
their own accord as neighoors and
political friends, alike interested in
democratic success. The only kind of
"harmonyn these would be leaders and
agitators want is harmony based
upon the endorsement by the demo
cratic party of their course in defeat.

LAST WEEKS ELECTIONS.

While the results of the state cleo.
tions held last week turned largely on
local questions and conditions and were
not made distinctive tests on national
issues, they nevertheless gave some in
dications of the general trend of politics,
says the Nashville Democrat. In sew
eral of the states the elections this year
are by no means prophetic of the re-
suits that may be expected in the pres
idential election next year in those
states, but leave the probabilities SO
conjectural as to afford reasonable hope
for both parties. The states which Inst
Tuesday gave the democrats the best
promise were Kentucky and Ohio.
Kentucky's return to her normal polit-
ical condition by such a large majority
augurs we'll not only as guarantee OF
her safe position in the electoral college
in 1912, but also an encouraging pros
pect for democratic gains in other
states. The local democratic victories
in Ohio are also significant and encour-
aging and give good grounds for large
expectancy next year. Speaking of the
outlook from the standpoint of the po-
litical showing of last Tuesday, the
Macon Telegraph says:
Taking the whole field, with its bear
ing on the national contest next year,
it appears that Coy. Harmon has made
the best showing. Neither Cows. Foss,
Dix nor Wilson, who have shown "pro-
gressiven tendencies, have made any
advances, but two lost. Champ Clark
must contest Missouri with Folk, and
Mr.. Bryan has lost his state-Nebraska
three more of progressive pro-
nounced or possible candidates. If Mr..
Taft is to be the republican nominee,
which now appears certainty, then
Gov. Harmon would make the issue
squarely between the two parties
Ohio's electoral votes have not been
cast for many years for the democratic
candidate; there is no hope that Mas
sachusetts or New Jersey or New York
can be secured with progressive y
candidate. Then an effort 10 get the nee
essary electoral votes elsewhere must
be made, if Wilson is TO be the demo.
cratic nominee, Missouri is certain
ty; Kentucky also. In Ohio the demo-
Gratis have not only held their own, but
added to their victories of last year,
The battle-ground must be in the really
doubtful states, and Ohio is one of them.
