No matter whether Mr. Roosevelt
ceases his personal attack on the
President or not, Mr.. Taft intends to
keen ND his campaign Of criticism OF
the former President and outline the
achievements OF the Taft administra-
tion In half dozen OF the shorter
speeches he made yesterday Mr.. Taft
emphatically declared that Il was not
time now for Mr. Roosevelt TO preach
the doctrine OF mo personalities.

Roosevelt now wishes to indulge IN

Taft at Bucyrus.

has issued a statement claiming the
twenty-five delegates from Washing
ton and Utah, which increases Presi-
dent Tafts total of delegates to Chi
cago to 1875"
He continues:
The President with 525 delegates Is
within fifteen votes OF actual control
OF the national convention. To-mor-
row Montana's eight win be added. re-
ducing the number of delegates neces-
sary TO bring about his denomination
10 seven. Additional delegates yet to
be chosen in Congressional district
conventions of Texas and Arkansas
will put the President I'm control OF
the convention with the States of
Ohio, New Jersey. Arizona, Idaho,
North Carolina and South Carolina
yet TO be heard from.

emitting him. under the call Of the

NtlNe the Two NVleN from inlh ulhuitl
in the national convention. Mr. Roose-
Welt, by the preferential primary. will
receive the entire delegation from
California, If the national committee
valves its rule IN favor Of the State

ion OF Theodore Roosevelt, the cam
paign for the Republican nomination

"The number Of delegates necessary
TO nominate is $50. or the delegates
already elected. without counting the
contested delegates, have more than
500 or the delegates yet 20 he elect
ed I am confident | will receive
enough TO insure my nomination on

TWO ANNIVERSARIES

Seldom does it occur that a grand
mother and grandson can celebrate
their birthday anniversaries ON the
same day, when they are so far re-
moved in age. This occurred recent
ly when Mrs. Alice Stevens celebra-
ted her seventy-fifth anniversary and
Mr. ]. Thomas Caruthers celebrated
his thirtieth anniversary. Mrs. Ste
vens is the grandmother of Mr.. Ca
ruthers, who, it will be remembered,
gave up the presidency of the New
Jersey state school to come back to
Tennessee and open lockwood Farm.
A family dinner was served in which
Mrs. Stevens had the honor of dining
with her seven daughters and a large
number of the grandchildren, most of
whom live in Colorado. One, how
ever, resides at jacksonville, KY,
while two reside in Nashville. From
4;S0 to guests called, paid their re-
spects and showered Mrs. Stevens,
who is a picture of health at the age
of seventy-five, with congratulations
She was the recipient of a large num-
Der of presents. The favors for the
guests were beautiful cards contain

A Good Beginning.

The first session of the Middle Ten
nessee Colored Teachers Association
held in this city last week was a
signal success from every point of
view. This meeting should set at
rect il such exists, all doubt az to the
possibility to organize and keep in
affective operation the teachers in
this section. The interest manifested
was the most intense and the future
of the association bids fair of great
results.
There is a vast field in Tennessee
for the operation of educators. Thou
sands of children are out of school
and thousands are housed in school
buildings that are not as commodious
as they should be. Again, there are
many communities where schools
should be, that are without them.
The Negro teachers must do their
portion Of this work They can do
it better than any one else, for they
understand better the needs of their
own people.

FRIDAY, APRIL 70, 1912.
rhe New cas- Franehlse.

On next Monday, April 18th, the
new gas ordinance will be submitted
to the voters of Nashville for ratifica-
ton. The ordinance was passed by
the City Council and approved by
His Honor, Mayor Hilary Howse AS
the City Council and the Mayor have
always shown that it was their de-
sire to subserve and advance the true
interests of Nashville's citizens, 1t
il safe to assume that in their opin-
ion. as the representatives of the peo-
pie. the pending ordinance is a good
one and should be approved by the
voters on Monday.
A comparison of the ordinance with
the old one will disclose that all of
the Objectionable features have been
eliminated from the pending measure,
and that this is so is evidenced by
the fact that both the Banner and
Tennessean, which bitterly assailed
and opposed the former ordinance,
have editorially endorsed and ap-
proved the present franchise.
If this ordinance is ratified at the
election on April 18th, it win mean
that, within thirty days after such
ratification, there will be released in
Nashville the cash sum of approx
mately $1,9OO,OOO, and in addition to
this sum of money, the new com
pany is bound by the ordinance TO
expend on improvements and extern
sions of the plant, at least the sum
Of $5O0,OOOOO; so that the approval
of the ordinance means that nearly
S2,5OO,OOO will come to Nashville as
the result.
This new capital, so brought into
our community, will seek immediate
investment in various channels of en-
terprise and Industry. Every busl
ness or interest in the city will fee
the direct impulse of this large sum
of money. The extensive improve
ments and betterments of the plant
will require much work, and the la
boring men of the city will be called
on to do this work.
The result of Mondays election viii
be an important factor in Nashville's
progress, and it is the duty of every
voter to go to the polls on that day
and cast his vote for what he be
lieves the best interests of our city
require and demand. In our opinion
it is to the interest and benefit o
our citizens that the new gas ordin
ance should receive their support anC
vote.
The terms and provisions of tn,
ordinance are set out in an article ap
pearing elsewhere in this issue.
