Dangerous Ground

Governor Hooper's political am
bltlon does not stop short of the
United States senate, and the am
bltlon OF his party is to become
dominant in Tennessee. Few, if
any, independent democrats now
desire a senator from Tennessee
who would line up with the stand
pat republicans. Few if any of
them now wish to see the state
republlcanized. Probably few if
any of them now believe that
either of these developments or
eventualities is possible, but they
are treading on dangerous ground
if giving further support to Gov
ernor Hooper. He is seeking re-
election would insure the main
tenance and enforcement of the
temperance laws or the retention
of the present election law, for
these are matters that must be
determined by the legislature.
His candidacy is a part of the
scheme to make Tennessee a
Republican state and give it Re-
publican representation in the
United States senate, and the
scheme will succeed if the Inde-
pendent Democrats continue to
coalesce with the Republicans.
On May q the Democrats will
meet in convention and adopt a
platform declaring for the prin-
ciples for which the Independents
have contended and which have
triumphed. What more could the
Democrats do, or the Indepen-
dents expect? And if the Inde-
pendents will not return to the
Democratic party this year, when
and under what conditions and
circumstances will they return?
AS a newspaper that has been
largely in sympathy with the
Independent faction, the Herald
Courier hopes that every Inde-
pendent Democrat ia the state
will fall in line and help to de-
stroy this Republican scheme

"The Old Maids Club"

The play entitled THE Old
Maids Club" which was given by
sevesal of the members of the
M. E. Church Tuesday night, was
well rendered and pleased a very
enthusiastic audience.
No play for a long time afford
ed so many laughs, although it
was evident by the heart render
ing vocal solo given by one of the
old maids that they were really
serious.
An especially pleasing feature
on the program was the singing
by little Miss Elizabeth Robson.
She has a very sweet voice and
audieuce was delighted with her.
There was a good house and
everyone enjoyed themselves
greatly.

INCREASE OF MEDI-
CAL MISSIONARIES

There are now 451 medical mis-
sionaries in the foreign field-an
increase of five per cent over last
year. These figures are given by
DR.. j. L. Maxwell in the Medical
Missions at Home and Abroad, and
it is interesting to note in this con-
nection that the increase in the
whole profession as recorded by
the Medical Directory for 1914 is
less than one per cent.
DR.. Maxwell says:
The present number does not
at all meet the urgent need. 1t is
pitiful to think of the great doors
in the east which God has swung
wide open to us, while there are
so very few willing and ready to
enter; pitiful to think while our
medical schools and colleges turn
out their hundreds of men and
women annually, so few-so very
few-are drawn to consecrate
themselves and their gifts to the
noblest work on earth. No coun-
try in the world has profited so
much as our own from the COM
ing of the gospel, and never had
true altruism a better opportunity
of showing itself along the hign-
est lines than it has today, but
alas! we keep the Lord waiting"

Hon. 7. R. Preston, candidate
pr the Democratic nomination for
overnor came to Newport today
nd addressed a good audience.
Representative Democrats and
Republicans, as we'll as many la
lies, were present and the straight
usiness address of Mr.. Preston
Tas impressive, and it is not like
that there will be any opposi-
Jon to instructing Cooke county
br him in the county convention
Fhich meets May 16.
Mr.. Preston came to Newport
fter addressing large crowds at
bristol, Jonesboro, Greeenville
nd Johnson City. He was met at
he train by such men as w. B.
johnson, H. L. w. Taylor, w. 0.
films, j. A. Susong, DR.. j. F.
Woodward. T. N. Huff, and 9TH
rs, and taken to the Minis hotel,
we're he was kept busy through
! |ut the day meeting the unterri-
led Democrats of Hoopers home
bounty.
Mr.. Preston lays no claim to be-
ng an orator. He is a business
nan and believes that Tennessee
heeds a business administration
Ind he proposes to bring the bus
hess of the state UP to a business
(tandard. The fact that he was
n Hooper's home county did not
|eter Mr.. Preston from pointing
but to his hearers reasons why
Mr.. Hooper should be sent
back home. He wanted the Dem
bcrats to help him drive from the
barty the blight of Stahlmanism.

THIS is PRESTON DAY IN NEWPORT
High School Notes

Rev. Hamll was a visitor at
school one day last week.
Mae Sexton, one of the Tenth
Grade girls, is quite sick this
week.
Some of the Graduates have
their essays written and put away
to dry, while some haven't started
theirs. To the former ones we
advise that they see that their
essays do not mildew before COM
mencement.
We are using every spare mo-
ment in rehearsing plays and
practicing for commencement.
Mrs. George O'Dells room had
a May-pole on the first of May.
The children danced around the
pole and sang some very sweet
songs. 1t was very pretty, and
we believe, if we are not mistaken
that this is the first May-pole we
have ever had.
This is the time of the year that
the little boy who hasn't studied
goes home and tells his mama that
his old teacher is so partial that
she wont let HIM pass, and his
mama thinks that he ought to be
able to pass if Mrs. So and Sos
boy passes, and the little girl who
hasn't studied goes home and
says the same thing. Then the
teachers are blamed if the pupils
don't pass
Tuesday was very stormy day
but the atmosphere around Col
lege Hill was cool and enervating.
The trees are now taking on their
green dresses and every thing is
happy and growing hp here.
There's certainly some fine ball
players on College Hill. We pre-
dict for them a very bright future.

FRANCHISE GRANTED
Newport Viii Have Electricity For
all Purposes Meded-Day
and Night Current.

AT the meeting of the board of
Mayor and Aldermen Tuesday
night Chas. L. Goughnour was
given franchise which gives him
the privilege to erect poles and
use the streets of Newport for the
purpose of bringing electric cur
rent from his dam at Hartford to
Newport. At the meeting Tues
day night a week ago the ordin-
ance was passed on first reading
and three of the aldermen voted
for it and at the meeting last night
all the aldermen voted for the
ordinance. The passage of this
ordinance means much for New
port and will do more for our up
building than any one thing the
board could do. Cheap power
will be furnished manufacturing
enterprises and a day current will
be furnished all who desire and
need it. If the present board had
done no other thing to give their
administration a place in the his
tory of Newport the passage of
this one ordinance would be Suf-
ficient to make one bright and
glorious page for them.

His Reasoning Was Good

A certain young mans friends
thought he was dead, but he was
only in a state of coma, says Tit
Bits. When, in ample time to
avoid being bnried, he showed
signs of life, he was asked how il
seemed to be dead.
"Deadp he exclaimed. Il was
not dead. | knew all the time
what was going on. And | knew
| wasn't dead, too, because my feet
were cold and was hungry"
But how did that fact make
you think you were still alive?'
asked one of the curious.
well, this way: ! knew that il
| were in heaven | wouldn't be
hungry. And if | was in the other
place my feet wouldn't be cold"

set as dates for the fair this fall,
and the President and Secretary

A. r. Swami, C. B. Minis and j.
A. Susong were' appointed as a
committee to see every merchant
and business house in and around
Newport and to solicit funds and
premiums from them for the Fair

No institution in Cooke county
has done one-tenth as much for
the live stock interests as these
good men who have given their
time and much of their money for
the improvement of the live stock
and the entertainment of our peo-
pie.
The social feature alone is we'll
worth the price of admission and
no citizen of Cooke county should
fail to attend these annual fairs.
1t takes lots of money to run a
fair and a little off each of us
won't hurt any of us and we
must support the fair if we want
to keep it alive. The County court
could not do a better thing than
toexempt the Fair grounds from
taxation and make an annual ap-
preparation for this great fair.
Put your shoulder to the wheel
help the fair and 90 every day.
