NEW MAIL TRAIN
ON THE L. & N.
NUMBER z, ARRIVING AT i0:3o,
HAS EXTENDED SERVICE TO
MONTGOMERY.

Two new mail trains have been adj
ded to the Columbia schedule, they
being No. z, southbound, arriving In
Columbia at 1890 p. m, and No. 8,
northbound, arriving here at $3.50 In
the morning.
These two mail trains have greatly
added to the excellence of this city's
mail service, as the southbound train
makes connection at Decatur with the
Southern railroad, and connects with
trains going In all directions at Biz"
mingham and Montgomery. This as
sures that quick mail srvice can now
be had with the entire South from
Maury county's capital, although the
service was already as well as almost
any other city of similar location
In the State. These trains will leave
mail at the Columbia Office as well as
take 1t on.

THE HOUSE MEMBERSHIP.

The report of the committee OF the
House of Representatives recommend
ing an apportionment bill increasing
the membership If that body ABOUT
forty is discouraging Manifestiy the
only reason that actuated the COM
mittee in making this report was e de-
termination to prevent the reduction
Of membership from any State. me
committee cannot justify its action
upon this ground alone. The higher
interests of the nation should have
more weight with legislators than
mere local or State pride which finds
little real basis for existence.
The membership of the Nat'onai
House Is already admittedly TOO
large. 1t has ceased to be a great
deliberate legislative assembly OF
the peoples direct representatives
and in the very nature OF things II
cannot be. Four hundred is too
large a membership for such body.
Much az the Democrats may invelgh

fact. under existing conditions, aoso-
lutely necessary to the orderly tran
eaction of business. Business could
M more be transacted and exploited
IN the House today under the rules
which governed that body sixty years
ago than the House could pass bill,
where there is determined opposition

MAURY COUNTY
PREACHER CALLED
REV, M. E. GABARD GOES TO
MAYESviLLE, ALA, AS
PASTOR.

Rev. M. E. Gabard, of this county,
has been called to the pastorate Of
the Cumberland church, u. S. A., at
Batesvile, Miss, and also received a
call to the churches of Gurley and
Mayesville, Ala, Cumberland U. s. A.,
churches.
The salary of the two latter church
es is two hundred less than that OF
the Mississippi church. but Mr.. Ga
bard accepts the Alabama mission
out of preference for his love for the
church and the people. Hefounded
and built the church at Gurley In
1885 and to be called back to the con-
gregation IL taken as great compli-
ment to the divine. The call to the
Alabama congregations are signed by
the board of elders of both churches.
He will leave with his family about
February / to enter upon the dis
charge of his pastoral duties.

The promotion of Congressman
padgett to the Craftsmanship of the
House Committee on Naval Affairs
will be a deserved tribute to one OF
the hardest working members OF Con-
gress. And it will be assurance too
that no spirit of jingoism will domi-
nate naval appropriations. Mr.. Pad
gett believes in a good navy but he
does not take to the idea that the
United States must have armaments
equal to those of the military op7res-
sed nations of the old world. And
he is right too. This country does
not need navy equal to those OF
England and France and Germany.
Nor does 1t have any legitimate use
for a standing army of million men.
War scares about the unpreparadness
of this country and the urgent neces-
sity of more men and more ships
make interesting reading but they
have little basis other than the quite
vivid imagination Of the writer's.

HoUk's CHARGES.

Little attention will be paid to the
charges made by Senator Houk with
regard to the conduct Of the election
in Knox county last November. Houk
is a Republican in name only. There
is no. difference between his poll
tics and the politics Of majority OF
the Senate except name and politi-
cal association. Houk Is a whiskey
Republican in Knox county. He
would have been a whiskey Democrat
in Shelby county. The regulars"
count on his vote when 1t Is needed
and his illumination against the cleo
ton in Knox county, conducted as 1t
was by bona fide representatives OF
his own party at every voting pre-
cinct, were no doubt inspired by an
tagonism to Hooper and Sanders and
the other real leaders of the Repub'
lican party. There Is no more poll
teal sympathy and fellowship BE-
tween Sanders and Hooper and SEN
ator Houk and Davis than there Is
between Gus Fitzhugh and Dune
Cooper or William J. Bryan and Al
ton B. Parker or Theo. Roosevelt
and Butler Ames. All Of which goes
to show that there are imaginary dif.
ferences between so-called Democrats
and so-called epublicans in Tennes-
see lust as there are between nominal
Democrats and nominal Republicans
In the nation.

LONGER PRESIDENTIAL TERMS.

Hon. Champ Clark, of Missouri, is
man of many ideas and most OF
them are based on sound common
sense.
He has expressed himself in favor
of a revision of the constitution, so
that the presidential term of office
may be heightened to six years In
stead of four. He also declares that
the additional provision should be
made that no man can be a president
more than one term.
This would forever hush the polit-
ical bugabear of the fatal third term.
1t would likewise make the president
absolutely Independent.
1t is not always because OF the pc
cuniary benefit he may receive that
the chief executive Of the nation soli-
cits reelection. In most instances he
would much prefer to retire after a
single term. He has received honor
enough. His pride has been graft
fed. This is not why he Is slow to
relinquish the office. Leaders In the
party whisper among themselves that
1t Is duty the popular president
owes his party. It In no longer q
question of what he owes himself. He
is told how much depends upon him
how the question of power, tremblei

One Of the most romantic marriages
that has occurred In Columbia for
some time was that of Miss Bessie
Galloway to Thomas Dodson, Of Tex

W. 8. Morton, Of the South Columbia

reared in the Knob Creek section, and
has been in Texas for several years.
He returned to this county on visit
just before Christmas and during
the stay here he married. Mrs. bod

Democrats of the nation will soon
ascertain just how much sincerity
there was In the fight Of their Con-
sressional leaders against the alleged
lniquity of the Cannon rules. Its our
opinion that much Of the denuncia-
ton of the Cannon rules during the
past four years has been for home
consumption only. There has never
been a day when a majority of the
members of the House could not
have changed every rule Of the body
had they so desired. Uncle Joe was
right when he said that q majority
of the members could do anything
they desired.

If the term of Office Ia heightened
two years it will give the people the
benefit of a heightened administration
and a rest from the everlasting turn

It will also have a tendency to dueh
the uncertainty and nervousness as
played, SO often, in diplomatic cir
cles. It will have the effect OF givN
ing the people of foreign governments
a better understanding of our legis-
latiye and diplomatic methods. The
, fact that the president can never sue

ton of sincerity to his administra-
ton. because 1t cannot be charged
that he Is constrained to lend his In
