London.-There is, perhaps. no more
beautiful spot in all England than the
valley Of the Esk. which stretches
from the sea TO beneath the heights
of grim Scafell. The Gatehouse estate
midway up this valley possesses beau

an outlying spur Of fell above the
grounds a Japanese garden has lately
been called into being as by a magi-

peaty swamp dotted with great bould-

been, transformed into a quaint and
beautiful garden. The bog, skilfully
drained and utilized, has formed a

Gen. Rye put in last week cam
paigning in West Tennessee. He
was greeted by large and enthus-
iastic crowds at each and every
appointment, and it is estimated
that he spoke to more than twelve
thousand people at the six speak
ing points of last week. It has
been asserted, even before the
nomination of Gen. Rye, that he
would roll up an old-time major
ity in West Tennessee, and his
campaign so far goes to show it
in the strongest way. Regulars,
Independents and Republicans
are supporting him and it is said
that his home town, Camden, will
not cast six votes against him.
Gen. Rye is making a telling cam
paign speech, and has Hooper on
the run. 1t is evident that the
people are not for Hooper for a
third term, and this is proving a
mill stone about his neck. Gen.
Rye shows up the increased cost
OF the Hooper administration and
the additional offices that have
been created under him to such
an extent as to open the eyes of
the people. Hooper's pet follow
lowers are filling these new Of
fees and the people are paying
the burden. Gen. Rye touches up
the present administration Of our
school laws and shows how it is
being worked at the dictates of
Hooper and his. henchmen. With
at least $4,000 raised from the
poor and unpaid teachersl of the
state before they are allowed to
stand an examination, it would
certainly seem that relief ought to
come.

Editors are Human

We often wonder if it has ever
occurred to some people that
editors are human, and not super
beings gifted with second sight.
An editor is constantly on the
hunt for news Of interest to the
people who read and pay for his
paper, and he never intentionally
omits an article of any Importance.
The success of his paper depends
upon his impartiality in this re-
spect.
And yet often some people con-
ceives the erroneous idea that the
editor has purposely left out some
item concerning them or their
families.
Has it ever occurred to them
that the. editor may not have
heard of that particular item,
although he searched diligently in
his efforts to secure all of the
news?
There is very effective remedy
for these isolated but inadvertent
omissions. The next time you
have piece Of news concerning
yourself, or your family, or your
neighbors, or Of your community
give it to the editor yourself, or
phone or write it in to him, and
do not depend upon others to do
it. They may be more interested
in affairs on their own side of the
fence.
The editor will thank you for
your thoughtfulnesS in enabling
him to secure news that will add
to the value of his paper and make
it of interest to all of the people,
for that is his mission in life.

Therefore, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United
States do designate Sunday the fourth day of October next
day Of prayer and suppcaon and do request all Godeang

Gen. Rye. Col. N. w. Baptist Of

the last legislature is strong for
Rye. Gen. Rye spoke Monday at
Cookeville to more than $500
people; Senator Holiday intro
duced him and enthusiasm reach
ed a high pitch.
The reception Gen. Rye is re-
ceiving in Middle Tennessee this
week is as enthusiastic as that
given him in West Tennessee and
is breaking into the followers Of
Hooper on all sides. Wherever
Gen. Rye has spoken those who
are most active in his support
have been former followers Of
Hooper, and are urging his cleo
ton for the welfare of the state.
Rye clubs have been formed in
every civil district in Wilson
county and this county which has
been about even in the past is
now placed in the Rye column by
one thousand majority. Hooper
is being received coolly at almost
every speaking point. He is no
longer able to deceive and mislead
the people and the people are
wanting peace, political peace in
the state, and know they cannot
have it as long as Hooper remains
in the gubernatorial chair, hence
their determination to put him
out. Rye is marching on to VIC
tory in November.
