Shields and Webb
Chief Justice of Supreme
Court and Noted School
nan Elected to Long
and Short Term in Uni
ted States Senate.

John X. Shields, Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court Of Tennes,
see, was on Thursday of last
week, on the 7th ballot, elected
by the Tennessee General As,
sembly to ucceed Robert l..
Taylor in the Senate Of the Unit
ed States. The term for which
Chief Justice Shields was elect
ed begins March A., 1913. BY a
lineup of so-called "Regular,''
Democrats, o number of Repub.
licans and three or more hereto.
fore independent Democrats,
Mr.. Justice Shields was given 90
votes against 81 votes for Hon.
Charles I. Gates, Attorney,G
eral for the State, the vote for
General Gates being made up Of
independent Democrats, a. ma
jority of the Republican mem
bers and a majority of the Gele.
cation from Shelby county. Gen;
eral Gates was selected to make
the race bv the independents
without his consent, for several
mouths ago, after reflection, he
had declined to be a candidate.
The Independent Democrats and
Republicans who voted for
Shields won no honor for them
selves dy doing so, but hotwith-
standing that Judge Shields is u
Democrat in National politics
and will represent Tennessee III
the Senate.
On Friday Prof. w. II. Webb,
head of the great school for boys
at Bellbuckle, was elected to
serve until the 4th of March, TO
fill out the unexpired term Of
the late Senator Taylor. Prof.
Webb is, perhaps, the. most not
ell school teacher in Tennessee
and on the issues which have
rent the state for the past four
years, is an uncomprising inde-
pendent-in fact, he has always
been disposed toward indepen-
dence in politics.
The Progress laments the
withdrawal Of Col. B. A. Enloe
from the contest and deplores
the defeat of General Gates, but
rejoices in the honor conferred
on Prof. Webb, while short liv-
ed. Had the Independent Dem,
ocrats and Republicans who vo-
ted for Shields, been blest with
either steadfast courage or con.
vlctions, either Mr.. Enloe or
General Gates could have been
elected. All honor to Senator
Hare and Representative Rob
erts who stood the test-as their
supporters know they would do.

When he lived In Colurnb where hie

Tommy and many there still remem-
Der him by that name. An old lady who
had been his Sunday school teacher said,
when she heard Of his nomination:
III I'd only known Tommy Wilson was
going to be president, I'd have noticed
him more particularly when he came to
SUNDAY school.
She remembered him as a BOY with

and he was very particular a bout his

10 pull on their hats W ladies and old
gentlemen and TO stand up when ladies
came into the room and TO hold chair

had beautiful manners-its more than
the YOUNG men have now. But / never

except that he seemed a very kind

his sisters and didn't tease and torment
them az most boys used 10 do. He al

clally Annie: the two always were sort

next December, according to q statement
issued tonight by John d. Rockefeller
Jr. Mr.. Rockefeller says also that an

the bureau plans to extend Its work to
other American cities.
A corps OF workers, under direction
OF George j. Kneeland, who directed the
Chicago vice commission investigation

survey OF conditions In disorderly re-
sorts, hotels. saloons, cafes. massage
parlors and other places In New York

tories Of some two thousand women OF
the underworld.
Based upon all these studies" Mr.
Rockefeller adds. "it is the hope OF the
bureau that there may be devised a prac-
tical plan for dealing with the social evil
In New York city-a plan which public
opinion can be brought to support"
The bureau came into existence two
wears ago as result OF the work OF
the special grand jury ot which Mr., Rock
efeller was foreman, appointed TO nves-
tiga,e the white slave trade In this city.
