THE NASHVILLE BANNER.
Says the Nashville Banner:


Toward The Columbia Herald the
Banner could have no feeling not
friendly. 1t has intended no reflec-
ton on that papers motives and in
dulged no criticism of its position
outside of the same logical presenta-
ton of facts made in this article,
with a request for logical reply"
The Herald can reciprocate this
feeling. 1t certainly has no person
al animus against the Banner But
when that paper consigned us to out
er darkness and to the company of
Parks Worley, John I. Cox and Hoyt
Stewart merely because we express
ed the hope and desire that all polit-
ical parties would stand for prohibit
ton and law enforcement and elimi-
nate those issues from strife torn
people, we could not refrain from
calling attention to the Banners re-
cord as an advocate of prohibition.
A newspaper that would associate us
with the three worthless above NAM
ed merely because we desire honora-
BILE peace for faction4rentse people,
would, If It had the power, send us to
hell or burn its political opponents at
the stake. However. the Banner Is
seemingly more welded to the means
to the end than 1t is to the attain
ment Of the end: The Herald simply
desires the triumph of'prohibftion and
law enforcement witheut reference

BANNER AND TEkNEssEAh.

In a column and more the Nash
vile Banner attempts an answer to
an editorial in Mondays Herald upon
the political situation in Tennessee.
However, the major space of this
long distribe consists in. weak and
far fetched effort to make it appear
that The Herald il simply playing
second fiddle" to the Nashville Ten
nessean. Not very much of q crime
even If true, which 1t is not, for the
Tennessean Is the pioneer among
the great dailies of the state in the
contest for prohibition and law en-
forcement. It made the great fight
for Senator Carmack. 1t was the
only paper at Nashville that properly
characterized his taking of. It was
the second daily In Tennessee, The
Herald being the first, to bolt" the
Patterson organization in 1910. 1t
was a powerful and effective factor
in the election OF an anti-Patterson
and anti-Dibrell legislature last year
We have not always agreed with
the Tennessean and it's position now
does not altogether meet our approx
al but 1t Is able to take care of itself.
This paper did not approve Senator
Leafs recent stand upon the law en-
forcement bills but 1t did admire his
rigid adherence to an agreement even
If others had fiagrantly violated 1t.
He has never denied being a party
to the Crump-Amis-H Hooper compact
through which the fusion forces were
enabled to organize the legislature
and elect all the state officers. As
much cannot be said for otehrs high
er in the esteem Of the Banner. We
did think and do think, however, that
Senator Lea was wrong in his con-
clusion that the agreement had bind
ing force after both sides had
preached it. That was an error OF
the head and not of the heart 1t Is
grossly unfair, unjust and ungrateful
to attempt to destroy Senator Lea
simply because he does not bow in
alteration to the Banners political
idol
To set all matters at rest The Her
aid reproduces the following extract
from it,. editorial OF Monday and
adopts it as It's confession Of faith:
4 The Herald would rejoice In
a proper settlement OF the issues OF
prohibition. and lay enforcement. It
would be glad to be rid Of the turl

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.
William F. McCombs, chairman of the
democratic national committee. today
declined to go to France as ambassador
OF the United States. but when he left
the executive offices he was still as
much in the air about the position
as he was before. because the President
would not accept the declination as
final and asked Mr.. McCombs to re-
consider his attitude for another few
weeks, at least.
Mr.. McCombs. out Of Difference to the
Presidents request, will think about it.
but those who know him best say that
he is likely to return to his law prac-
tice and business in New York, retain
the craftsmanship of the national COM
mittee and indulge himself some years
longer in the game Of politics.
The President insisted that he want
ed men of Mr.. McCombs' capa biIitse es
in the foreign service during his ad-
ministration, and paid the New Yorker
high compliment.
No Other Man in Mind
Who the President will send to
France In stead of Mr.. McCombs,

post. is in doubt. The President has
fixed upon no other man. and will not
do so until the final word comes from
his old friend.

to leave tonight for New Hampshire

a United States senator that had exist

Transports Are Fired On.
CETTINGE. Montenegro, March 13.-
News reached here today that four
Servian transports loaded with troops
were yesterday riddIed with shells fired
by an unidentified war vessel. Accounts
of the engagement from two different
sources declare that the attacking yes.
sci flew the Austro-Hungarian flag. !
The transports were conveying strong
detachments of Servian troops to assist
the Montenegrins in their siege of the
fortress of Scutari. The attack on the
four boats occurred off San Giovanni di
Medua. Two of the transports We're set
on fire. The number of killed and injured
has not been reported
No official account of the engagement
was available this morning. and, the un-
official dispatches from San Giovanni di
Medua varied considerably.
Abuse of Flag Charged.
According to one account, the attacking
ship was the Turkish cruiser Hamfdieh.
which is alleged to have been flying the
colors of Austro- Hungary. Another report
doubts the war vessel was the Hamidieh
at all, and says that the cruiser resem-
bled a vessel of the Austrian Kaiserin
class. Feeling against Austria has been
high here since Tuesday. when the Aus
tfian minister to Seryia announced that
his government objected to Servian troops
assisting in this siege of Scutari.
Today's news of the attack on the Ser
Wan transports therefore created a
tremendous sensation here. In official
circles however, no credence was given
to that part of the press dispatches relat-
ing to the Austrian flag. Omcials declar-
ed that the attacking vessel was un-
doubedly the Hamidieh, which was re-
ported in the vicinity few hours before.
and added that the Turkish cruiser would
have no reason for hoisting false colors
