MILLER LOCATES
FOR SHORT TIME.

In some of last weeks papers oc-
cured an account of man who called
himself Miller. According to his story
he was an experienced knitting mill
man and had procured building
which he was going to have remodeled
at a great expense to his company
which was large one with offices at
Chicago. He proceeded to explain
that his company had ten factories in
the south and had been attracted to
Johnson City by the location and
the cheap freight rates; that they
would Immediately send ten experts
from Chicago aud that the business
would be opened at once. That is about
all except that in leaving the Pardue
hotel Sunday morning he cashed
check for $500, $3.50 of which was
deducted for board and and room. He
also told the clerk to reserve couple
of rooms for himself, wife and daugh-
ter whom he was going to meet. Chief
Campbell is sending out the following:
.Look out for A. T. Miller, age
about so, smooth shaven, about six
feet tall, weighs about 200 pounds,
gray hair, good talker and usually has
a smile when talking. Claimed TO be
representing knitting mill and want
ing to establish branch factories in the

BULL MOOSE PARTY TO
HAVE TWO NEWSPAPERS

Nashville, Aug. 17.-Bull Moose of
Tennessee are going to establish two
daily newspapers in the state, to fight
for their strenuous leader and for a
state ticket. One of these papers will
be established in Nashville and one in
Knoxville. This was decided at a
meeting of the progressive party state
executive committee, which met in
closed session Friday. The name of
the paper at Nashville will be the
Tennessee Bull Moose" While it has
not been definitely decided as yet
whether it will be daily organ or a
semi-weekly, the chances are that it
will come from the press every day in
the week and Sunday too.
The state electoral ticket in part
was named by the state committee.
District electors from the second,
fourth, eighth and ninth districts have
not been selected.
In addition to the appointment Of
committeeman and electors the follow
was the business transacted:
Ordered that the executive COM
mittee prepare and print 100, 900 copies
of Harry Anderson's speech rs tenn
porary chairman of the state conven-
ton, which is also to contain the state
platform; Chairman Taylor, of the
state committee and the national COM
mitteeman directed to visit New York
and confer with the national commit
tee situation. Ordered that state head
quarters be opened at Nashville by
Chairman Taylor and Secretary Bar
ker, and that the opening of the sub
headquarters at Knoxville, Chatta-
nooga, and Memphis be deferred until
Chairman Taylor returns from New
York; executive committee was direct
ed to take steps to establish two news
papers in the state and make other
printing and publicity arrangements;
the secretary was directed to prepare
all necessary stationery, etc.

done nothing to drive from him the
support of any man favoring the prin-
cipals of modern democracy. He is in

will not be partisan but Tennessean.

GOV. HooPER'S RECORD

Letter from w. B. Lenoir in the Chat
tanooga Times.)
When Gov Hooper ran for the office
to which he was elected two years ago
he promised as being the nominee of
both the republican party and the in
dependent democrats:
That his administration should be
non. partisan.
That he could and would enforce the
prohibition law.
That he would not use the pardon
ing power, except in extreme cases.
That, above all things, he would
give the state a business administra-
ton.
Is Sanders, his appointee for United
States senator, q. non-partisan?
Did he enforce the prohibition law?
Wouldn't or couldn't amounts to the
same.
Did he use the pardoning power as
he said he would?
Is it business to advise or consent to
the hegira of part of the Legislature to
prevent the transaction of business?
Is it business to sign a bill to pay
these and other members of the legis-
lature for $50 days when the consti-
tutoinal limitation is seventy-five?
Anyone who can answer these ques-
tions in the affirmative satisfactorily
to himself, be he democrat. republican
or bull mooser-far be it from me to
dissuade him-let him march to the
polls in November with "give-me-
liDerty-or-give-death" determination to
cast his ballot for Gov. Hooper.

ROBT. MILHORN TRIED
BEFORE JUDGE PIERCE

Robert Milhorn had hearing before
Judge w. g. Pierce Monday on fraud
ulently disposing of horse belonging
TO Mrs. Martha Lowdy.
Sunday Milhorn was going to take
a colt to Sullivan county and having
to cross the Watauga river he borrow
ed Mrs. Lowdy's horse and employed
her boy to assist him with the colt.
1t is stated that Milhorn snapped the
Lowdy horse to parson John Jackson,
and later he swaped his horse to the
parson for the Lowdy horse. Then
Milhorn gave the Lowdy boy the horss
which was first gotten from the
preacher. Mrs. Lowdy was not sat
isfied with the trade and she brought
suit to recover her horse. The suit was
com promised.

STATE POLITICS

We see no reason for calling off the
the democratic primary in November.
There is no authority vested in any
committee to abandon the primary.
1t was ordered by democratic con-
vention, which got its credentials from
the people.
The second convention did not claim
authority to act in this matter, and
certainly no committee created by the
convention can exceed the power dele
gated to it.
If one primary was cursed with
fraud in one county, that is no reason
for abandoning future primary.
If this rule of action held good, the
fraudulent elections held in the past
would be reason for abandoning all fu-
ture elections.
The duty of the committee is to pro-
1T by the experience secured from
the rascally tactics that marked the
primary in Shelby and to take such
action as to prevent its repetition.
The reason for abandoning the prim-
airy is that now Patterson seems to
have the "bulgs" in the campaign for
senator. He is running for office and
the road is open to others. If they
feel that they would make better SEN
ator than Patterson, they ought to
come before the people end make try.
Again, there is campaign on for
governor, and some of the newspapers
Of the state in sympathy with the re-
publicans hope to make votes for Gov
srnor Hooper by alleging that McMil-
lin and Patterson are in league.
Now, McMillin is regularly nomi- |
mated democratic candidater He is 4
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1912-08-29

With Judge McAlister and Judge
Jones in the senatorial race, certainly
those who oppose Governor Patterson
can find someone to vote for and hush
this idle talk about calling off the SEN
people really want to try to defeat him
at the polls this is their opportunity.
1t will not be sufficient excuse to claim
that Judge McAlister is running in the
interest of Governor Patterson. Even
If he was they could elect him, if they
have votes enough, and that would end
the matter.

NEW BUILDING OF
GEORGE PEABODY.

A few days ago excavation was begun
for the manual training building, the
first structure to be erected on the beau
tiful new fifty-acresite of Geo. Peabody
college for teachers, Nashville, Tenn.
It is proposed to have four new build
ings ready by September, 1918, and, at
that time, with an especially able fuc-
ulty, to open for students.
In quick succession the domestic
economy building, dormitory for VIC
men, and the psychology building will
be erected. The cost of these four build
ings to be completed within the next
twelve months is estimated at about
s850,000. The style of architecture will
be classic, with many details of south
ern colonial. The whole group of build
ings will present one harmonious style
with notifications sufficient 10 secure
pleasing variety. None of the struc-
lures will be over three stories high. A
series of units is planned and buildings
will be grouped for convenience, archi-
tectural effect and greatest possible
service. The best architects and land
Scape designer procurable, the college
trustees and President Payne, assisted
by an advisory board of specialists,
have planned with care and skill the
general layout of the buildings and
grounds. This gives assurance that
the college will have an educational
plant modern, convenient and efficient.
1t is contemplated that two or three
buildings will be added each year until
the whole scheme is carried out.
Peabody college, which was founded
thirty-seven years ago as the leading
normal school of the south, has already
accomplished one phase of its work. 1t
can now count nearly forty normal
schools supported by southern states to
carry on the work then begun. Its
graduates and former students number
over eight thousand, and they are, IN
most cases, performing valuable service.
And now, on splendid new site and
with larger resources, George Peabody
college for teachers will enter upon its
new phase of teacher training service.
1t will respond to the changed needs in
southern education. 1t is intended
that it shall be great teachers college
1t will not conflict with our valuable |
teacher training institutions, but will |
be of assistance 10 them all and will |
supplement their work.
Adjacent 10 the Peabody campus are
the attractive grounds o. Vanderbilt
university. 1t is proposed that these
two institutions, though separate and
independent, shall exchange education
al facilities, and it is hoped and believ-
ed that This cooperation will promote
greatly the interest of education in the
south.

she woman crowned with all the vir-
tues that go to make up noble woman
hood. He said no practical reason had
been shown why the children should
be taken from the care of their moth
er, than whom a more solicutious and
loving mother never existed, as at
tested by scores of the good women
of Edgefeld, and given to their father.

F. Barron Grier, Esq, closed for the
petitioner, contending that the deciding
of TIE children to Senator Tillman did
not estop the father from coming into
court and claiming his rights, which
were paramount to the mother. He
said that they were not asking that the
children be deprived of their mother;
that all they asked was that they be
awarded to their father and that his
home had ever been open and was open
now for Mrs. Dugas. Hell hath no
fury like love to hatred turned" ex-
claimed Mr.. Grier, charging that Mrs
Dugas was rearing the children in an
atmosphere in which their father and
his name were despised and that this
was wrong. He charged that she
wouldn't let the father see the chill
dren and went On to picture the home
with the father as the head. He said
that all they had to show was the
fathers worthiness and denied that it
was up to them to show the fitness of

The father, he stated, has right to

Mr. Grier asked the court if they
couldn't give B. R. Tillman, Jr, the
custody of the children all the time, to
give it to him part of the time and to
permit him to see them at any time
under the proper circumstances; that
the custody of the children be divided
between the wife and the husband
one to have them part of the year and
the other the rest of the year.
