to anything ever before attempted BY an
rangement Of prismatc and refractng lenses
electric light will suffuse the whole palace with
a soft mellow, purplish blue atmosphere, in keep
ing with the purplish tint Of the waters OF the

with the constant presence Of the fish encircng

Of actually living In the water.
There will be an elevator from the ground
floor to the fishing chamber. and wireless
telephone will communicate with the wireless

THE CITY LEAGUE.

Local lovers of the great national
sport will join us in the hope that
future games in the city league will
rot be marred by unseemly conten
tions and disputes among the players
end outsiders. Umpires may and
doubtless often do make mistakes but
when they have been selected it is
the duty Of players to stand by their
decisions. There must be discipline
among the players and order among
the spectators else patronage al the
games will dwindle until it will no
longer be a self-supporting PROPOSE
ton. The president of the league is
making every effort to give the peo-
pie of the community good clean
ball and he should have the earnest
support of players and managers,
There is not enough involved in the
result of these friendly contests to
cause a row over a decision Of the
umpire. BY all means the people
should have orderly baseball.

THE JUDICIARY.

In their zeal to elect favorites fer
justice of the peace and other local
offices good government advocates
are liable to forget the more impor-
tant duty of preserving the freedom,
the integrity and the independence Of
the judiciary Of the state. Above all
things it is Of the highest Importance
that the judiciary of the state should
he maintained in all Of its constitu-
tional vigor, the free agency for the
preservation of the rights and l.her-
ties Of the people.
Two years ago the people spoke in
thunder tones against the efforts Of
a corrupt machine to dominate the
judiciary of the state. The same is
sue is involved this year in the cleo
ton of one of the members of the
court of civil appeals. The candi-
date of the Patterson machine was a
candidate of the machine two years
ago. He endorsed the effort of Pat
terson to coerce the judiciary and
make it the pawn and the play-thing
Of an ambitious politician. He has
never made public repentance of
his part in the effort to foist the Pat
terson judiciary on the state. That
nan is Felix w. Moore.
Moore's opponent in this campaign
is Judge LII. N. Cate, able, well quail
fed, honest and fearless. Two years
ago he was a devoted and Jealous
partisan of an independent Judiciary.
He represents the sentiment Of the
people of Tennessee expressed at the
POLLS in August, 1910. He should be
again elected. 1t will not do to re-
verse the righteous verdict of 1910.
The only way to preserve the fruits
of that victory lies in the election of
Cate.

THE PRIMARY.

In an address to the independent
democrats of the state, issued by a
number of gentlemen who have heen
prominent in the movement for the
moral regeneration of Tennessee
urging the independents to vote in
the primary on Thursday it is stated
that the existing temperance laws
are in no way jeopardized by the pri-
mary. This is rather a remarkable
statement in view of the conditions
that now exist in the state, the
s!ignments in the primary and the
attitude Of the leading candidates
for governor.
The address is issued in the inter
est of certain candidate for gov
ernor. OF that fact there can he no
doubt The chief leaders in get
ting up the address and in procuring
signatures are Preston supporters
Now what is there in the record and
present attitude of Candidate Pres
ton that gives the temperance demo
Gratis of the state any assurance that
his nomination would not impair the
existing temperance laws?
Mr.. Preston opposed the temper
ance laws now on the statute books.
He appeared before the Legislature Of
1909 at the head of delegation to
fight these measures. He made a
speech before a committee in oppo-
sition to the temperance laws. Dur
ing the great struggle of two years
ago against the Patterson machine
and liquor domination Mr. Preston
was the chief owner and directing
genius of the old Nashville Ameri-
can. Every one knows what the atti-
tude of that paper was during that
campaign.
Even admitting that Preston had
repented and apologized for his for
mer attitude, which he has not, the
platform will be made not by the
candidate for governor, but the con-
vention Of August Is. Every one
knows now that an overwhelming
majority of that convention will be
against temperance. In Davidson
county the machine has already
agreed upon a solid delegation for
the back tax, the liquor and the office
brokerage machine The same is
true of other counties. The platform
Of August is viii be a liquor cocu-

SUPPORTING A REPUBLICAN,.

What is this we hear? Can it be
possible that the Chattanooga Times
the regular of all regulars, to whom
the support of Hooper is an awful
sin, is actually supporting the repub-
lican candidate for sheriff of Hamil-
ton county? We fear that it is true.
1t is awful and we fear nightly for
the standing of the Times in "regu-
lar" circles. 1t will soon be an out
cast from the liquor machine if it
pursues it's present course.
Seriously we take it that the
Times is supporting Mr.. Conner for
sheriff because upon his official re-
cord he deserveslthe endorsement of
another term. The fact that he Is a
republican does not and should not
have any effect upon the election. In
the naming of county officials the
sole test should be that of honesty,
fitness and capacity. II Mr.. Conner has
these requisites he should be elect
ed, provided of course he possesses
them in a greater degree than does
his opponent. Tennessee would be

It in the election Of a state officer.

SAME OLD MACHINE.

In his speech at Johnson City Hon
Thos. R. Preston made this declara
ton
Z 1T takes no bloodhound to scent
the present political line up. The
same old crowd that heas so Ions
dominated the state to it's injury are
making desperate effort to hold in
tact their old political machine, the
backbone of which Is the back tai
fraternity. Unless all signs fail this
machine will meet its Waterloo or
August. 1. Tennessee should ride on
the twentieth century limited instead
Of the stage coach"
And even Mr.. Preston sees what
The Herald has SO clearly seen since
the beginning of this fight. 1t is the
same old line up. McMillin and Pat
tcrson and Dibrell, the same old is
sues to hold them together, liquor
lack tax and office and pardon brok-
erage. And this is the very reason
why The Herald and thousands of
other democrats in the state are not
going to enter the primary. The
cards have been stacked. The deal
is already made It is McMillin, Dbl
rell, Patterson. The liquor gang, the
back tax fraternity and the pardon
brokerage and Office holding crowd
must all be saved. The democratic
party and the welfare of the state re-
ceive small consideration from such
an unholy combination.
Unfortunately a gentleman of char
acter, integrity and ability like Mr..
Preston who really wants to do some
thing for his state, whose face is to-
ward the rising sun Of progress and
who is not gazing with longing eyes
to a seat in the senate, has little
chance in the primary of August l..
That primary and the convention
which will follow will be too COM
pletely under the domination of
special interests to permit a gentle
man like Mr.. Preston and his friends
even "look in" Independent dem
ccrats, which really means progress
sjve democrats in Tennessee, cannot
afford to join this reactionary line up
OF liquor, back tax and office and par.
don brokerage. What is clear to
Preston should be even clearer to the
man whose vision is not clouded by
personal political ambition.
