every possible offer of patronage and
pelf was corruptly made by members
of the legislature.
without the two men elected as
Independents, this bill could not have
passed, and without the three, men
elected as Republicans and pledged
against the bill, it could not have
passed, The question that now con-
fronts us as representatives of a ma
jority of the people of this State is:
Shall we permit the will of the people
to be thwarted, if we can prevent this
result by tactics that are somewhat
revolutionary? Does this issue in
volved justify the use of such drastic
measures?
The question of honest elections
lies at the base of Republican govern
ment. There can never be another
honest election in Tennessee under
the bill now pending, conceived in
the sin of broken pledges, brought
forth under the auspices of the whis-
ky lobby, and to be administered by
past masters in the latter day art Of
political crookedness and corruption.
Under such law two years from now
the discredited whisky machine of the
State would ride back into power
over stuffed ballot boxes and outraged
citizenship.
I'VE likewise have everw reason to
believe that the same remarkable CO.
alition which passed this bill is pledg-
ed to repeal the manufacturers law,
and thus opening the way to wiping
out all temperance legislation.
IF this result had been attained
by men elected by the people for the
purpose we would bow to the major
ity,, even though we did not approve
of it's action. AS it is we represent
the majority of the people and we pro-
pose to stand by, protect and make
effective the result of the last cleo
ton.
The constitution of Tennessee pro-
vides that two-thirds of the House
shall constitute quorum, and this
provision Is wisely designed to ena-
BILE a minority to prevent the commits
sion of just such legislative out
rage as this one in question.
I'VE are loyal to our consciences
and answerable to our constituents
in the course we have adopted.

NO BEANS PLANTED
THIS GOOD FRIDAY
RAIN PREVENTS GARNENERs
FROM CARRYING OUT THE
OLD TRADITION.

There were no gardens planted this
year on good Friday, in spite of the
old tradition that beans and other
vegetables should all be put in the
ground on this day. The rain, which
fell in torrents in nearly every part
of the county all morning prevented
any gardening during the week. The
heavy rains have swollen Duck river
which has risen six feet during the
day.
