STATE CAMPAIGN v
BEGINS IN EARNEST
THE COMING WEEK
M'MiLLlN AT cookEvlLLE MON.
DAY AND HOOPER AT KNOX
LILLE WEDNESDAY,.
HARDLY ANY JOINT DEBATES
A Number of Prominent Speakers for
Each Side Have Announced Their
Willingness to 60 on the Stump on
Orders of Committee.

NASHVILLE. Sept 21.-The open
ing gun of the gubernatorial cam
paign will be fired in Tennessee by
Benton McMillin, nominee of the reg
ular democrats. in Cookeville, in Put
nam county on next Monday at
o'clock. This will be the signal for
the artillery to be turned loose all
along the line. and Gov. Hooper, the
nominee of the republican and indie
pendent democrats, will follow with
his opening speech the next Wednes-
day night at Knoxville in East Ten
nessee. The announcement of the
opening dates for the two candidates
mans that there will be no challeng-
es for joint debate issued by either
of them, and that the battle will be
waged alone. w. f. Poston, candi-
date of the progressive party for
governor, however, through the chair
man of his state organization, g T.
Taylor Friday night issued chal-
lenge to both McMillin and Hooper,
for a joint debate between all Of the
candidates, but inasmuch as arrange
ments have already been made by
the chairmen of the other factions, ii
is hardly probable that either chair
man Morton or Chairman Beasley
will seriously consider the challenge.
Great efforts will be made by the
leaders Of the regular democratic fac
tion to prevail upon Gov Woodrow
Wilson, the national leader Of the
party to come to Tennessee and
make a fight for the state ticket To
this end at the meeting Of the state
committee last Monday, resolutions
were adopted couched in rather
threatening language in which Gov.
Wilson is requested to come to Ten
nessee and make fight for the state
ticket to the same extent that the
state ticket in making for the nation
al ticket. However, as the presiden-
tial nominee has stated on several
occasions, that he will not take part
in any Of the state campaigns, 1t Is
hardly probable that he make dis |
tinction in favor of Tennessee.
In addition to the two gubernato- |
rial aspirants, strong speakers in |
both parties will take the field and |
shell the state from Bristol to Mem |
phis. X. T. McConnico, E. E. Es-
lick, Gen. A. B. Anderson, Judge A. |
B. Neil, Mayor Hilary Howse Dave
Puryear, Rice Pierce, ]. Frank White, |

nounced their willingness, to put on
their armor for McMillin and stump |
the state for him.

JUDGE JONES OUT
OF THE RACE FOR
THE U. S. SENATE
NIGHT RIDING JuRlST SEES THE
HANDWRITING ON
THE WALL
GIVES REASON FOR HIS ACTION
Declares Liquor Plank Was inserted
in Platform to Prevent Others From
Entering the Misunderstanding
Language Is Used.

DRESDEN, Tenn, Sept. 21.-yudge
Joseph E. Jones, the noted night rid
| r jurist, who recently announced his
candidacy for the United States SEN
ate, subject to the democratic prima-
Iry of Nov. 5, has withdrawn from the
contest. In a signed statement Judge
Jones gives as his reason for quitting
the contest the fact that large lum-
Der of those who oppose liquor dom
nation will not participate in the
primary
The withdrawal statement OF
Judge Jones is as follows:
ITO the democrats of Tennessee:
During the brief canvass for the
senatorial nomination have become
thoroughly convinced that a very
large number of the democrats of
the state who believe in the scnti-
ments expressed by me against liq-
uor domination, and in favor of law
enforcement, and have applauded
them wherever have gone, will not
for good and satisfactory reasons
vote in the November primary.
They are OF the opinion and I
have painfully reached the same con-
clusion that the purpose in inserting
the liquor plank in the platform was
to make further participation In par
ty conventions and PRIMARIES in Ten
nessee so odious that none but those
dominated, in league with, and devo-
tees of the liquor interest, with few
exceptions would enter them. This
would result In the dealer and expon-
ent of those ideas meeting success in
the primary, participated in by his
followers alone, with few others
for regularity's sake. The party boss
has cracked his whip and driven men
in Tennessee for regularity's sake |
sufficiently long
my criticism of the liquor plank |
in the platform and denunciation of |
the timid, shrinking, cowardly policy
Of party crawling at the feet of a
lot Of saloon criminals in the cities,
who refuse to acknowledge the SOW
ereignty of Tennessee, and her laws,
has given offense to some who are
now in brief party authority in this
state, and the manipulators of their
interests.
Il have spoken truths that will |
live and be applied to public affairs
by honorable men when petit politi-
clans and time servers will be no
more.
With these facts in mind l have
determined not to qualify or be can
didate for the senatorial nomination
in the November primary. trust
that my efforts may yet contribute in
arousing the whole people of the
state to the Importance of the sena-
torial Office and the duty of filling it
with some one who will reflect honor
upon the state. though it may be at
the cost of refusing to take the lash
from the party boss. To fearlcssly
express sound and correct views, as
to public matters, gives me more
pleasure in times like these, than to
sit in the senate by abating one pot
Of title.

TAFT ADJOURNS BANQUET
AS DEATH NEWS COMES

NEW YORK, oct, 31.-William II.
Taft. President of the United States,
almost burst into tears when he re-
ceived the telegram conveying the
sad news of the death of Nice-Presi-
dent Sherman.
The President at the time was seat
ed at the banquet table in the Thir-
teenth Regiment Armory, Brooklyn,
Previous to the receipt of the news,
the President appeared in his usual
good humor and seemed to enjoy the
affair. The message was brought to
him by one of the secret service inch.
"Oh, my God!" he exclaimed, and
told those nearest to him of the death
of Mr.. Sherman. Water appeared in
his eyes and he stared straight ahead.
When the Brooklyn navy yards con-
struetor. who was speaking at the
time, finished his speech, the Presl-
dent arose. With a voice that quiv1
cred with emotion, he sadly conveyed
the news. He said:
my friends, three years ago. at
the launching of the Florida, you al
met the Vice President of the United
States, Vice President sherman.
1T is my sad duty to announce that
the word has come that the Vice
President is dead.
''Those who knew him loved him.
His death is a great loss to all. !
venture, therefore. to ask you all that
this meeting be adjourned in honor of
his memory and hat no further pro-
ceedings be taken"

EDITORS
Showered Upon Mrs. Reynolds, of Woman's
Political Union, Her Associates and The Evening Star by
Advertising Experts, Contributors and Readers.

"~Suffragette Edition" The paper had
a fine, healthy look. 1t was crowded
with good stuff. 1t was a paper that
anyone could read with interest, and
it was clean as a hounds tooth.
I'VE all have our own ideas about
female suffrage. l have mine, and I
am not going to express them here,
but we must at least give the women
folks credit with knowing how to
produce a really splendid newspaper,
which is more than a good many men
know.
wouldn't it be a good idea to have
a suffragette edition every once in
a while?
"Give the women a chance to talk.
Very truly yours.

DEER HUNTERS MARK SHOT
TO TELL WHO KILL GAME

twenty gunners to every deer and
with the likelihood of an embarrassing
situation arising over the ownership
Of the prize should all twenty shoot
at once at the same animal when the
cunning season officially opens IN
New Jersey tomorrow, native hunt
ers in the deer woods in the 10 yer

means of loading their shells sc as to
tell whether the charge reaches its
mark in the event of a dispute.
The scheme is a simple one. Small
shot are packed with the larger buck
shot when the shells are loaded. If
a running buck is fired Upon by ewo
or more hunters and one Of the shots
brings 1t down, the hunter with the
specially prepared shells can readily
tell whether or not the auarry is his

less, with 23S to Haussling's 1871.
In the shops of the Newark branch
of the Packard Motorcar Company

polled the large majority of 81 to IL,
Almost go per cent. of the 16S men
employed in the Lackawanna freight
yards professed themselves loyal
Roosevelt supporters, with Wilson
holding second place. The vote was:
Roosevelt, 81; Wilson. AZ; Taft, 49,;
Debs, 4, while II men said they would
vote for Chain and the Prohibition

hundred Haussling polled 6S votes to
Aronson's 81.
