BACK TAX BEAEFlClARIES
Preston Asserts That They Are Sup
porting McMillin.

Dyersburg, Tenn, July 22.-(Speciall
Hon. I. r Preston addressed fair
sized audience here this afternoon. He
was introduced by J. N. Parker, Chair
man of the Dyer County Executive Com
mittee. He touched on all of the State
issues, and especially paid his respects
to the back tax system and the back tax
attorneys Of the State. He charged that
this machine was supporting Governor
McMillin. The speaker declared that
Mr.. McMillin had been seen in close
consultation with revenue agents and
back tay attorneys, and that some of
them had been chaperoning the ex-gOv-
ernor over the State. He said the back
tax laws that had so long disgraced the
State could not be removed from the
statute books if Mr. McMillin was again
made Governor
Mr.. Preston denounced as absolutely
untrue the statement credited to Mr..
McMillin that back tax-attorney was
assisting in the management of his cam
paign. He paid tribute to the Con
federate soldier, and stated If it were
not for the enormous fees paid out to
State officials and extravagnt ppropri-
ations that the old soldier could get
more help from the State.
He stated that some of the back tax
commissioners were getting az much as
900 per year and the school teach
ers of the State were only paid $50 per
month. Mr.. Preston made favorable
impression here, and mis- frjcn1s in Dy-
er County are going to try to swing
the county for him.-Nashyille Tennes-

Conference CAT

Last November called togethl
large conference of prominent frie
OF law enforcement. Out of this con.
ference grew the appointment of legal
commission to take up every phase of
the question of enforcing the four-mile
law. This commission, after thorough
investigation of the subject, presented
strong and able report, in which they
took the position that neither the law
nor the constitution vested in me any
powers other than those l had been ex-
ercising in connection with the enforce
ment of the criminal laws. They made
a number of suggestions, however, as to
new legislation for this purpose. and

THE TAX CATERERS AND THE

The Western Carolina Enterprise
says:
THE tar gatherers are abroad
in the land-and the people
mourn."
The task masters of Pharaoh who
made the children of Israel labor for

than are the tax gatherers" Of the
Democratic machine. The Bible tells
us that when the wicked rule the
people mourn.
The children of Israel threw of the
yoke of the Pharaohs, because the
Lord helped those who helped them
selves. The Lord will also help our
people to throw off the yoke of the
Democratic machine, IL we will only
make an effort to help ourselves.

The New York American calls at
tention to the fact that the Demo

down are each day throwing bou-
quets at President Taft, while vigor-
ously denouncing Colonel Roosevelt.
1t says there is a reason. That pa
per further predicts that when the
election comes that the Taft Repub-
licans will be found voting for Will

Hon. George D. Penniman, one of
the leading citizens of Baltimore and
a lifelong Democrat, has just an
nounced his support of Col. Roose-
welt for President. He gives many
reasons why he thinks it his duty as
patriotic citizen to take this course.

Roosevelt to be delighted with his
visit to North Carolina-and he was
The audience that greeted him in Ra-
leigh was the largest and most rep
reseptative ever seen at a speaking
in this city. The large audience was
orderly and appreciative. They had
come to hear Roosevelt as well as to
see him.
His bean story and his explanation
of his part in taking over the Pana-
ma Canal captivated the audience;
in fact, they were with him from the
beginning to the end of his speech,
and then wanted to be with him
some more.
Two or three Democrats were heard
to say after the speaking that they
had intended voting for Wilson, but
they would now vote for Roosevelt

GOVERNOR WILSON STILL HEsI-
TATING AND TALKING GILT
TERISG GESERALITIEs.

Ii has been more than two months
since Governor Wilson was nominated
az the Democratic candidate for the
Presidency, and 1T Is now less than
one month and half until the cleo
ton; yet SO far Governor Wilson
has not been able to state clearly to
the people of this country where he
stands on any great important ques-
ton.
His first declaration was to repu-
date the platform on which he was
nominated by declaring that the
platform was not a program, and that
he and his administration would have
a program of their own. He has not
however, told the people what that
program would be.
His next declaration was that he
would not interfere with the rule OF
the State machines and bosses In the
various States. This raised such a
howl from the progressive Democrats
in the various machine boss-ridden
States that Governor Wilson has been
forced to modify his statement by
saying that he did not mean what
he was quoted to have said He has
not, however, yet explained which
bosses he will stand for and which
he will not
Only recently he has declared that
he is against Boss Smith of his own
State of New Jersey being elected te

against whom he has declared. How
ever, when he was in New York the
other day to make a speech he rar
when he found that he was about tt
be photographed in a group with
Boss Murphy, the head of Tammany
Hall.

still appealing to him to stand with
them to overthrow the rule of Bos.

been silent as a dumb sound oyster

OHIO ENDORSES ROOSEVELT.

The people of Ohio have just voted
on a number of important constitu-
tional amendments
1t will be remembered that last
spring the Ohio constitutional con-
vention invited Colonel Roosevelt to
deliver an address and to discuss the
leading questions being considered
by that convention. This speech
made by Colonel Roosevelt was his
opening speech in the campaign for
his nomination for President He
discussed and supported all of the
leading reform measures before the
convention, including the initiative
and referendum, the recall of Judi
cial decisions, etc.
The people of Ohio have adopted
all of these leading constitutional
amendments which were supported
by Colonel Roosevelt in that speech.
This would indicate that the, people
of Ohio will give their electoral vote
this fall for Roosevelt, for neither
Taft nor Wilson support these reform
measures which the people of that
State have just adopted by big ma
jority.

1T MUST BE A PART OF THE DEM

The Lincoln Times says:
Have you yet heard OF the
Anti-Saloon League of North
Carolina condemning the posi-
ton of Woodrow Wilson and
Governor Marshall on the liquor
question? Yet both of these men
are avowed local optionists. The
silence of Rev. r. l.. Davis is
painful.
There would seem to be only one
of this silence, and tina,
IS, that the so-called Anti-SalooI
League is simply a part of the Demo
cratic partisan machine.

THE DOCTRINE OF THE s'DEVII
TAKE THE HINDERMOST."

Governor Wilson, in one of his re-
cent speeches replying to the posi-
ton of Colonel Roosevelt, says:
"Ours is program of liberty
and theirs is program of regu-
lation. The history of liberty is
the history of the limitation of
Governmental power, not the in
crease of it."
Herein Governor Wilson states in
another form the oft-repeated fallacy
Of the Democratic theorists that the
"best government is that which gov
ems the least
The liberty for which Governor
Wilson stands is the liberty of the
weak attempting to protect them
selves against the strong, with the
Government standing LANDS off, and
saying to the weak and the strong
that the devil can take the hinder
most. If government is not organ
lied to protect the weak against the
strong, then there is no purpose or
excuse for having any government
at all. Government is an expensive
and necessary burden or evil, and
the only excuse for its existence is for
securing equal opportunity between
all the people, to protect the great
mass of unorganized against the few
powerful who are organized.
The taxes that we pay to support
government are q tribute paid for
this protection. 1t is clear to-day
that to secure justice. the functions

TAFT SHOULD QUIT.

In an editorial the Pittsburg
Leader says:
Taft ought to quit. He is
beaten. There is no reason why
he ought to stay in the field.
The people did not want him
and they showed it by their vote
in the primaries last spring. Taft
stays now merely to help out
Wilson. There is no Republican
party any more. Taft has de-
clared he will take no part in
the campaign. He is beaten and
he knows it. So do his crooked
managers. In common fairness
to himself and the people he
ought to quit and get out of the
way SO as ohelp save the coun-
try from the blight of another

tion."

THE TRUSTS TRYING TO CAP
TURE THE SENATE.

Senator Simmons, in one of his re-
cent speeches, gave as one of the rea-
sons why he should be reelected to
the Senate, that he would be the
Democratic leader of the Senate
We remember that when Senator
Martin was the candidate for re-elec-
ton in Virginia, that he used the
same argument in that State. Sem
ator Martin had better right to use
the argument then than Senator Sim
mons has now.
The leader of each party in the
Senate is selected by caucus of the
members of each party. Senator
Martin was selected by the Demo-
cratic caucus of the Senate as the
Democratic leader. He is still the
Democratic leader, and will be until
the caucus displaces him and elects
some one else.
Just before Senator Martins fight
for reelection came up, Senator
Bailey and other Senators who repre-
scented the trusts and special inter-
ests, took an active part in having
Senator Martin made leader of the
Democratic side, and it was under
stood at the time that they were do
ing this to give him a boost in his
State and help in his reelection. The
same Senator Bailey, of Texas, who
is so smirched with Standard Oil that
he cannot himself be reelected, was
at the head of the Finance Commit
tee of the Senate on the Democratic
side. It will be remembered that he
voluntarily retired in order to give
Senator Simmons this place to help
him in his fight for reelection. Thus
we see that Senator Bailey, the
man on whom the trusts have relied
the most. is especially active in the
reelection of Senator Simmons, as
he was for the reelection of Senator
Martin. The same interest that would
like to have Senator Bailey re-elect-
ed in preference to both Martin and
Simmons, realizing that the people of
his State will not again submit to be-
ing misrepresented by him in the
Senate ARE not doubt specially anx-
ious to save Martin and Simmons in
the Senate since they must lose
Bailey.
There is one great fact that the
brave and intelligent people of this
State should take note of, and that
is that tremendous struggle is being
waged and will be waged between
the wealth-producers, iaborers, and
all other people engaged in legiti-
| mate pursuits on the one side and
the trusts and monoplies on the 9TH
| er. The Senate is the stronghold
which they specially want to capture.
