government were few; when 1t was
held that the best government was
that which governed least, the states
could in their loose and unsystematic

And in exercising these larger pow

the welfare and the health and the
private we'll being of the individuals,
it has found that the government
whose authority is most concentrated
is the government which performs its

This will be bad news for some Of

about political prohibition than they
are about the real sort. Those of lis
who have been in this campaign sole
ly for unselfish and patriotic motives
can rejoice at every sign of the sue

the United States, rejecting the pop
ular will, has enacted laws of this
character only to have them killed
by the presidential veto. President
Cleveland vetoed literacy test dur
ing his last administration. In the
closing days of the Taft administra-
ton similar fate overlook another
measure along the same lines. Now
1t is announced that Wilson will not
permit the pending bill representing
the sentiments of large majority of
both parties in congress to become a
law.
There are few mawkish sentimen-
talists and few politicians who are
more interested in the votes of GER
tain nationalities than they are in
the general welfare of the country,
who are opposed to a literacy test,
but the great majority of intelligent
Americans are tired of seeing this
country overrun with the illiterate
and ignorant and depraved of Eu-
rope adding to our problems of gov
eminent. We already have too large
a per cent of illiteracy among our
own people. There are many more
folks of native birth in this country
who cannot read and write than we
ought to have. We are bending ev-
cry energy and spending every dollar
possible to remedy this unfortunate
condition. We are trying to improve
our standard Of citizenship. We
should close our gates to those who
will not meet reasonable require
ments. An illiterate and uneducated
citizenship is liability rather than
an asset We must do our duty by
those of our own people who are of
this unfortunate class and not con-
stantly add to the problem by permit
ting a horde of European illiterates to
overrun our shores. We had trouble
in assimilating all the aliens that
have come to us these twenty years !;
no harm will be done If we decrease
the stream.

SHELBY TO RESCUE.

1t is rather remarkable, but never
theless true that Shelby county has
more than once rescued the forces
of good government from disaster in
Tennessee during the past three or
four years. And yet Shelby county
is generally regarded as the bulwark
of the "enemy's' forces.
! A brief reference to political history
of recent months will prove the truth
of our statement. In 1911 a "regu-
lar" democrat would have been elect
ed to the United States senate had
it not been for the votes of two
members of the Shelby delegation.
After the hegira to Alabama came
and the legislature was tied up, 1t
was an agreement with Crump and
the Shelby delegation that enabled
the Independents and republicans to
return to their seats in the legis-
lature.
Again in 1913 but for the votes Of
Shelby county legislators both
houses would have been organized
by the regulars; "Sawney" Webb
would not have been elected to the
senate, George Woollen and Rem
Sneed and W. P. Hickerson would
not have been elected to state Offices,
nor would James r. Penland, the re-
publican caucus nominee, have been
elected a member of the state board
of elections. ...... ..
And but for the decision of a
Shelby county judge, a regular in
politics, on last Saturday, the cleo
ton machinery of Tennessee would
have been delivered absolutely into
the keeping of the old discredited
remnants Of the regular machine.
After all some good can come out OF
Shelby. And now comes Senator
"Sawney" Webb who declares his
faith that after March ! Crump will
end the rule of the dives in Shelby
county.
The road to better things in Ten
nessee has been rough one and the
night has been stormy. Often it seem
ed as though all would be lost, but
in the end the forces of good govern
ment have some how in some way
managed to make progress. Let us
hope, now that the effort to deprive
the people Of fair and honest sys-
tenn Of elections has been defeated,
we shall have peace in the state.
