Harmony Talk Prevails.

Nashville, Tenn. May 1i-Harmony
talk prevails around the Democratic
headquarters on the eve of the State
convention. which will meet here to-
morrow to select the entire State dele
cation to the national convention at
baltimore, and indications are that an
uninstructed delegation will be sent.
At Underwood and Harmon hcadquar-
tiers this Is openly advocated and pre-
dicted. wilson's managers intimate
that such a course would be satisfac-
tory to them. Clark managers said
tonight that they viii propose to the
convention that a poll he taken, and
whichever candidate for the presi-
dental nomination develops the most
strength be given the entire delcGa-
ton, casting twcntyfour votes in the
national convention.
The relative strength of the four
candidates apparently is an undctcr-
mined factor. Only 269 out of 1861
delegates TO the State convention were
instructed. so far as ascertained. They
were instructed by magisterial dis
tricts and not by counties in most
instances. and both Clark and Wilson
leaders claim a majority.
II the convention decides upon an
unInstructed delegation, the principal
fight will be involved in quiet can
vass TO get friends of the various can
didates on tho Delegation. Managers
for all the candidates are claiming n
majority of the delegates friendly tn
their man. Clark and Wilson man
agcrs are laying claim to the entire
delegation. ~ Harmons headquarters
they said they arc counting on not
less than fourteen OF the twenty dis
trict delegates. and ought 10 have
all the delegates from the State at
large"
~At Underwood's headquarters they
nro,csscd to SEQ the sentiment grow
Ing, and said that where ether candi-
dates had Instructions. Underwood was
second choice. The tact that the
Democratic party split in the last Cub
crnatorial campaign and has had .wo
tate committees. each claiming TO repre-
sent the party, has had great weight
in putting the idea of State harmony
above the claims OF any one candidat=
ior the presidential nomination.

French Thrift Threatened.
n the Louisville Cour:cr-Journal.

From the Louisville Cour:erJournal
The thrift Of the working classes in
France is such that their country leads
all others as a patronizer of savings
banks. That thrift. is based partly upon
the economy Of women and partly upon
the willingness OF both men and women
to do without many comforts and lux
ur.es which are considered necessities by
Americans of their station.
The wage-earning and salaried classes
in France have regarded modern bath
telephones as luxurfes. Only the well-to-
do have had any other point of view even
in Paris. In the provinces open plumb
ing and plutocracy have been associated
the rich. have deemed 1t impossible to get
along without running water in the
house. According to contributor to the
Worlds Work. the French middle class
has become infected with the germ Of
American luxury-love. The result is
that the rule of one-tenth Of the family
income for rent is beirg changed to the
Cne-slxth OF one-fourth tina. is accepted
in America
Apartment houses with modern equip
ment are going up in the provincial cities
and apartments are renting as rapidly as
they are provided at rates that would
have staggered the l'eceding generation.
The common attitude in America is that

Joy leisure during declining years. Even
In England. despite the noise that is
made in the world by the English gentle

uries In the home il not as general among
all classes as it Is In America. The
French will enjoy the present more as
| they become Americanized, but they will
find 1t a good deal harder to prepare for
the morrow.
