THE NEWSPAPER.

In the course of an editorial on
the demise. Of thu Nashville Demo
crat, the Chattanooga Times makes
the pointed observations to which we
can give full assent:
People want newspaper for the
news, straight, cold-blooded and I'M
colored to suit the interest, fancy or
promotion Of any man or set of men.
1t may say what it believes in it's ed
itorial columns and It's readers may
take its opinions or let them alone,
according to taste, bat in it's state
ment of events and happenings in
relating what it intends the public
shall regard as facts, lit must print
the truth; impartially iand without
prejudice or bias. The personal and
partisan organs cannot do this, hence
their failure to receive support and
consideration from the reading pub
lie.
The people are coming more and
more to demand of the Newspapers

ploiters of men, the promotes of

to believe that he has repented of
all his other sins and crimes against
the peace and welfare of flee
people.
In the light of this record how can
we account for the enthusiastic De-
monstrations upon Patterson by the
leaders in the good cause, except
upon the idea that Tennessee is
crazed with religious frenzy and in
the midst of a paroxism of political
hysteria? Can it be that because
of this condition Of affairs we have
forgotten that Patterson's opposition
to prohibition was among the least
of his sins as the governor of the
tsate A courageous Legislature
made that opposition ineffective, but
it did not and could not correct the
other evils of which he was the
cause.

EFFAclNG PATTERSON.

Suggestions are being made that
Patterson retire to oblivion or accept
some appointment from the Anti-Sa-
loon League as a prohibition evangel-
list. Nothing doing for Ham. He is
not going to make any sacrifices or do
any effacing. He is bound for the
senate of the United States. He
must have Office and be in the lime
light. Office to Patterson is the very
breath of his life. Patterson will be
the chief mogul of the Anti-Saloon,
the hero of the whole movement or
he will have nothing to do with the
movement. Patterson believes he
was born to command and command
er he is going to be. No priavte in
the ranks or sacrifices for Patterson.
Instead of being abashed or ashamed
as the normal man would have been
after the sensational exposure, Ham
expects to be canonized by the Anti
Saloon League and then ride the wave
to the United States senate where he
will give us nation wide" prohibi-
ton in decade.
AS governor Patterson was the
most imperious, dictatorial and arbi-
trary executive who ever held the Of
fice He tried to be the state. He
made a desperate effort to carry into
effect the famous motto Of the grand
monarch Of France. AS the high
priest of nation wide" prohibition
he will be the whole thing" or else
he will again find the throne OF grace
and see another light. The remarka-
BILE feature of the whole situation is
the spectacle of Ham Patterson's way |
to the senate and his re-entry into |
politics being paved by the very men
who have boosted of how they had |
driven him into private life. And yet |
Patterson has never uttered one word
of apology or repentance for the gross
abuse of the power that was given
into his hands when hes became gov
ernor. Have these men forgotten the
infamous pardon brokerage that -four
ished under his administration Have
they lost sight of his efforts to cor
rupt and debauch the judiciary of
the state? Are they SO forgetful that
they no longer remember how he
grossly prostituted the powers Of his
office and broke every solemn prom
se that he made to the people?
Talk about Patterson effacing him
self comes from those who either N
have very treacherous memories n
who are victims of the religious fen
~ in Tennessee and consequently
ire incapable of logical thinking.
That is not Patterson's waE. Una
unabashed and unhoved by
'evelations that would have driven
most any other "repentant sinner" to
Jack cloth and ashes foT years to
.ome, Patterson is busy utilizing our
political hysteria to make sure his
.alling to the senate there to be the
postle of nation wide prohibition.
