NOTABLE ANNI-
VERSARIES OF 1912

The year which we have just entered
will bring notable centennials ana
semi-centennials of important events
and births. On June Is, 1872, congress
declared war against England. 1t was
the last of the wars between us and
that country. Committees have been
appointed in the United States, Eng
land and Canada to arrange for the
celebration of the hundred years of
peace between those countries. Observ-
ances will take place in all of them.
Some of these will come in 1912 The
most important, however, will be in
the latter part Of 1914, for it was on
December "A, 1914 that the treaty of
peace was signed at Client, Belgium.
The battle of New Orleans, of which
Jackson overwhelmed Pakenham, took
place on January s, 1915, two weeks
after the signing of the peace, but sew
eral weeks before the news of the sign
ing reached here in the slow moving
sailing vessels of that day.
During 1912 will arrive the semi-cen-
tenanes of many important battles of
the civil war. These include, among
others, Grants capture of Fort Henry,
on February 6, and Fort Donelson, on
February is; the fight between the
Monitor and the Merrimac, March 8;
Shiloh and the death of the confederate
leader, Albert Sidney Johnston, April
8; the capture of New Orleans by Far
ragut and Gen. Benjamin f. Butler,
May /; Fair Oaks, May 81; the seven
days battles, in June and July; the
second Bull run, August 20; South

RIDGELY JONES IS
STABBED TO DEATH

Last Monday about eleven O'Clock
Ridgely Jones was stabbed to death on
the street by link Gardner. Both hre
negros and had been playing pool in
in the pool room of Noah Hill. Falling
out over the, result of the game or a
bet, row started. Jones ran from the
room and was followed by Gardner
and his brother, both throwing stones
at Jones as he ran down the Southern
railroad. He turned to the right to go
to Market street and fell in ditch and
as he was trying to get on his feet
link Gardner overlook him and drove
knife into his back. Jones ran around
to the corner of Market street and
Public Square and fell. He died few
minutes later. The Garpner boys
made their escape and have not yet
been captured. Jones was from Okla
homa and was working for the Cleve-
land Trinidad Paving Co., and is said
to have been worth about $780, 600. The
remains were sent TO Oklahoma for

There are none SO blind as those who
refuse to see, or words to that effect, is
recalled by the action of the three
members of the primary board APP
pointed by the independent committee.
They refuse TO understand plain Eng
lish and Chairman Barton has called
his committee to meet again TO take
the kinks out of their brains, and has
asked Col. Vertrees to reconvene the
regular committee, thing he very
properly declines to do. This looks
very much like the harmony agree
ment is to go for naught If this will
bring about an abandonment Of the
primary plan for governor and make
the regulars call an old-fashioned con-
vention under the two-thirds rule, the
party will be able to select man for
governor who will take Tennessee out
of the doubtful column and put right
side up rglin. The primary plan has
brought to the surface bunch of min
nows who are nibbling the bait, but
are not worth hooking. The democrat
ic party never had any trouble finding
q big man in conventions under the
two-thirds rule and it never will have.
Call convention, gentlemen, for May
or June and let's all get together in an
old.time political love-feast and nomi-
nate Hon. James d. Richardson, Chan
cellor John Allison or some other big,
honest and loyal democrat, and the old
ship of state will get back into demo-
cratic waters and have smooth sailing
with such men at the helm.

MIR. PATTERSON AGAIN.

The disquieting rumor that ex.Gov.
Malcolm r. Patterson will shortly be-
come a candidate for the United States
senate is again on its rounds. The per-
sistence of this rumor constitutes the
only unpromising feature of pending
democratic harmony. The following
from the Johnson City Comet, edited
by Col. Cy Lyle, one of Mr.. Patterson's
warmest friends, admirers and support
ers in East Tennessee, voices, we be-
lieve, the general sentiment of the reg
ular democrats of this section:
The friends Of Gov Patterson in East
Tennessee are also the friends of Sena.
tor Taylor, and they unanimously agree
in expressing the hope that he will
not enter the primary as candidate
for the senate against Senator Taylor.
1t is not urged that he has no right to
run nor that he should not make the
race, but it would force many to decide
between personal and political friends,
and they are anxious to see them both
in the senate, and feel that Gov. Pat
SSiSSh blulC Will SOOu ColllC, anu illub
he will have walkover.
From this it will be seen that Mr..
Patterson's entrance into the race now
will simply embarrass not only his
friends but the party all over the state.
What he may do later, after harmony
has been secured, and a reorganized
party established, will be another
thing. He ought not to run this time.

Gov. John /. Cox has decided to en-
ter the race for representative from
Sullivan and has uttered a platform
that contains many popular planks.
Some of his ideas will probably be in
corporated in the state democratic
platform and should be, particularly
his suggestion that the prohibition
question should be submitted to the
voters of the state for final settlement,
and let the legislature be bound by
that election. The question should be
eliminated from politics and settled so
that some other matter of business can
be taken up by the Legislature for the
good of the state.

And when the governor of southern

outrageous"
Beas1ey Says "Shade of Gray"
Chairman Beasley of the prison com.
mission, gave out the following state
ment Thursday night, sneering al
what he terms "chinquepin politics."
"About the smallest specimen of
"chinquepin politics" that has ever
come under my notice was an article
i'll the news columns in The Democrat
this morning trying to make it appear
that the prison management had Sc
lected confederate gray rs the color of
the new convict uniform.
"The purpose of the article was so
plain that nobody ought to have been
deceived by it.
"The writer of the article had no
basis for his statements except a lively
imagination and desire to create pre-
JUDGE against the present state admin
istration. The effort to connect Gov.
Hooper with the matter in any way
was entirely gratuitous, as he has not
been consulted in regard to the color
of the uniform, and the reporter acer.
tanned that he knew nothing about it
before he published his article, am
informed.
"The facts are that have collected
samples of uniforms from about tN enty
prisons, nearly all of them of some
shade of gray. That of Missouri,
southern state, is more nearly confed-
crate gray than any other.
"The uniform that the board intends
to select is shade of gray. This gray
is almost as different from confederate
gray as il is from federal blue; it is
very much darker-so much so that
some call it a shade of brown.
"The uniform will bear no notice
able resemblance to the confederate
"Whether the truth started day
late will ever catch up with the lie,
do not know. People WHO have been
needlessly exercised about the matter
will, perhaps, learn that in campaign

ated before credited
