HE TURNS TO TRUSTS.

Woodrow Wilson Evadss Discussion OF
the Tariff Question.
1t is the trust issue. we are now told
by Woodrow Wilson. that is para
mount in the campaign. Last week it
was the tariff. What it will be next
week has not yet been indicated.
In his speech Of acceptance Governor
Wilson emphasized the fact that a
platform was not program. Those
were words of wisdom. A program
is something to be followed with some
degree of fidelity. A platform. in the
lexicon of the Democratic candidate
is flexible thing, not to be taken too
seriously. but to be bent and altered
to meet the demands of the moment.
No program for the candidate. A nice
adaptable platform is good enough for
him.
In all fairness and in all decency.
however, DR. Wilson should not he
permitted to evade discussion of the
issue he brought forward as the i'm
portant one early in his campaign.
His campaign manager refused cnal-
lenge for joint debate between Re
publican and Democratic speakers on
the tariff, and the candidate might dis
claim personal responsibility for that.
but certainly Dr. Wilson cannot avoid
responsibility for his own words and
his own arguments. The fact that he
found his audiences totally out of sym
pathy with his free trade views should
not still his tongue IL he has the cour-
age of his convictions and honestly
believes the doctrine which he preach
ed If he be true leader of the anti
protectionists he will justify his be-
liefs and opinions.
So far from doing this. however, he
has elected to evade, precisely as his
managers evade. adequate discussion
Of the subject which means so much to
every individual In the land. First as
sailing protection and making state
ments that demonstrated his lack of
knowledge Of the facts, he shifted from
that position to one where he was try
ing to calm the fears of the Industrial
and commercial elements In the popu-
lation aroused by his initial utterances.
Out of all of his more or less vague
talk on the subject only one thing
energies clearly and diStinctly-that is.
that he and his party propose purely
political revision of the tariff, with all
the disaster, distress and disturbance
that such revision entails. Scientific
revision on accurate information is re-
jected by him and his party. Political
revision is just what the people do not
want, but both candidate and party
are committed to 1t. hence their desire
to get away from the issue.
By all means let the trusts be dis
cussed, too. but not in terms of gen.
eralities. such as Governor Wilson In
dulged in before the Democratic state
at Trenton last Tuesday.
And while discussing 1t Governor VIII,
son might explain why 1t was that the

OUR ONLY CHOICE.

Tuesday next will see the finish Of
the political campaign of 1919, and it
cannot be said that we will be at all
sorry that it will then be over. The
News has espoused the unpopular side
of the question in Tennessee politics,
and very probably would be more pros
porous than it is if we were to adopt
different tactics. However, such a
course woulu be foreign to the training
we received in early life, and we pro-
pose to stand by and support with our
influence only such things as meet
with the approval of conscience. We
had rather suffer hariships and heavy
burdens of labor than repose on a bed
of ease because of lax moral temper
ament.
With this idea we have chung firmly
to tue belief that the restoration of
the saloon will not be good for the cit
liens of Tennessee even if confined to
the three large cities, and as Hooper
is the only man who promises with
the aid of proper legislative not to
allow the saloonists to gain the foot
hold they are DESTROYS of securing in
Tennessee we will vote for him, and
legislative candidates who promise to
be in line with him on this great ques-
ton of morals. We believe, also, and
this belief has strengthened our deter
mination to vote for Hooper, that there
are men in Tennessee who ever since
the prohibition law was started to be
enfoIc ed, have done all they could to
nullify it, in order to hold it up that
it could not be enforced This belief
of ours includes a number of sworn
from officers to jurists, who
have been too lax in their duties, for
various reasons, mostly personal to
themselves: and we believe, moreover,
that the force of prohibition is greatly
hampered by the granting of federal
licenses to sell liquor or near beer. In
addition to this if we should vote for
McMillin and the platform he is pied
ged to support, we feel the situation
would be more terrible than ever.
Nearbeer saloons would flourish the
same as at present, and Chattanooga,
Nashville and Memphis would be
great distributing Wholesale and retail
lepots for every DEVILS blew concoct.
able.
Therefore, we will try to let the ev-
! that is now with us be sufficient, |
md vote for Hooper next Tuesday, and
he platform which says that the pres
mt prohibition laws of Tennessee shall
tand unchanged.

When Iron Floats.

Experiments show that If ball Of
solid iron is lowered into mass of
liquid iron by means of a metal fork
the ball at first sinks to the bottom
with the fork But in few seconds
it leaves the prongs and rises to the
surface where it continues to float
until it melts. The rising is explained
by the expansion of the ball. due to
heating, whereby it becomes, bulk for

HOW WILL He DO IT.
Ex-GoV. McMillin says:

Ex-Gov McMillin says:
II stand on this platform with the
Democratic party in favor of control
ling and curbing the traffic in intoxi-
cants, and against the harikari which
now reigns supreme in the cities men
toned therein. l propose to put re-
strictions on it not now placed over
it. I propose to remove it, not only
from territory around our colleges but
from residence portions of these cities.
propose to place it under such legal
restraint as will also curtail its roll
tical power When the unrestrained
liquor traffic is carried on in the cities
as it is now, whoever is at the head of
the city government has such absolute
authority a. no man should exercise
in our government. l would do away
with one man power in this business,
and by this do away with many of the
ills we now suffer.
How could Gov. McMillin DO all this
when be says Gov. Hooper can't hold
down the liquor traffic! Is he more
powerful than Gov. Hooper will the
liquor cohorts obey him more readilyH
is he able to make the United States
stop selling licenses in the slater We
tnlnk not, and if so, this quotation
from his speech as given above is all
rot aud buncombe. If the democratic
party would come out honestly and
say there shall not be any liquor sold
in Tennessee then the question of pro-
hibitiou would no longer be politi
cal issue, thing which it has protest
ed against vocariferously, Remove
prohibition from politics. Yes, but
at the same time let it bold its own,
j whit we say.
