A showy gown OF a scarlet hue.
And out in the orchard the peach

Tiny Girls Hurt;
Fall From Horse

Two little girls about 6 years old,
were injured slightly this morning
in front of the Electric building when
they fell from a big horse they had
ridden to the watering trough on
Third street, and were riding to
their home, a block away. They fell
under the horse and struck on their
heads on the pavement. Both were
stunned and passersby picked them
up and carried them to the sidewalk
where they soon recovered sufficient
ly to walk home. They gave their
names as Kelly.

Fists. This, we regard. as most
likely and lin our own mind have
had no difficulty in locating the
matters on which the regulars
might have wrought revenge on
1.-THE Memphis crowd-the bond
tissues and other matters of pure
" local nature to Memphis and
Shelby county-mostly Mem
lphis. Itis stated that in the
latter days of the Legislature,
outof 140 bills introduced more
than half we're Memphis and
Shelby county bills. As to law
reinforcement, everybody knows
that there was never any danger
of the regulars of Davidson,
Hamilton. or other counties for
thRt matter, standing; for law
enforcement. Look at Elkins,
Of Weakley county, and Walsh.
of Gibson. Both were bound in
all honor to maintain the TEN.
perance and election laws.
Elkins was pledged not to go in.
to . caucus and yet when offered
the Speakership race he became
the candidate of the faction with
which he had pledged that he
would not even caucus. This
but goes to prove that indepen-
dent Democrats who trusted Ell.
kins were political suckers who
were swim ming about in the po-
litlcal pool, ready to be caught
with any sort Of bait. As for
Walsh, we should have prefer
red an out-and-out regular, who
stood for Patterson, for whisky
at every crossroad and for an
election law that put the whole
election machinery into the
hands of the Siamese twins of
whisky and back tax graft.
After all this, granting politi-
cal excuse to such men as Sena-
tor Lea and Jonas Amis, we are
still of the opinion that Cover
nor Hooper never at any time
promised or intended to forego
his duty to the people-his
promise to stand for law enforce
ment--and we believe that our
conclusion in the matter is the
conclusion of the people, which
could be proven right now if
tested by the vote of the entire
|state,. and that vote honestly
counted. Governor Hooper is
stronger to-day than he has ever
been with the people Of Tennes-
see since he was first accident
ally" elected in. 1910. Many
regulars over the State are said
to be conceding the additional
strength Of the Governor--as
well'as the splendid business ad-
ministration he is giving the
State.
Reverting to the interview of
Mr.. Amis, we recall that he said
the fusionists got everything
named in the agreement--and
then some. In the list Of things
secured by the combine with Mr..
Orump, Mr.. Amis named the Of
