PARTISANSHIP.

just as ING independent VOlSr lS
the great balance wheel in our. cleo
lions SO is the independent press the
main dependence of the people for
obtaining accurate information and
unbiased Interpretation of political
events Of the day. 1t is a matter Of
congratulation that the number Of in
dependent papers Is increasing all
the time in Tennessee. 1t was once
the exception when a newspaper in
this state during campaign did not
masthead some political ticket. It
supported the nominees" regardless
of the issue or the personnel of the
ticket That day is passing. Now
1.-THE newspaper that makes public
profession every day or every week
of its subserviency to a political or
ganization is rather the exception to
the general rule.
Nevertheless there is altogether
too much of partisanship and unfair
ness among the papers Of Tennessee.
For example we find our old and dig
nified friend, the Knoxville Journal
and Tribune, utterly unable to do
Senator Lea or any one whom it sus-
poets Of political disagreement with
the governor full justice. This is ex-
ceedingly unfortunate and much to
be regretted. The Journal and Trib-
une is a republican, but it is also
newspaper and a good one too. 1t
should be first newspaper and then
la republican but it is inclined to re-
verse this proper order.
1t flies into tantrum because
Senator Lea attended the sessions of
the state board of elections at Nash
vile last week. In doing this Sena.
tor Lea unquestionably subjected
himself to some just criticism. But
why visit all condemnation upon the
senator? Why not also 60 after Gov.
Hooper, who left his mountain re-
treat and hurried down to Nashville
with his political agents and Office
holders, to attempt to influence the
board!
Gov. Hooper is even more vitality
interested in the outcome of the No.
vember election than Senator Lea.
The governor is candidate before
the election boards now appointed for
another term. Before Senator LEAFS
term expires new boards will be nam
ed in every county of Tennessee.
Now if 1t Is indicate and improper
for Lea to attend the meeting, and
we grant that it is, why was 1t also
not equally as indicate and improp-
er for Hooper and his political ben
eficiaries to intrude themselves upon
the commission?
The Herald holds no brief for any
politician. 1t is not the hide bound
partisan of any faction or leader,
and therein, and thereby it holds the
love of none of the hero worshippers.
But The Herald has no use for cant
and hypocricy and disp1ses unfair
ness and injustice. To this paper it
| is just about as reprehensible for its
friends to do wrong as it is for its
enemies to depart from the well trod-
den paths of rectitude.

SONORA TOWNSHIP
AND NEW BOULEVARD
May Default in it's $1,000 Promise tc
the Mississippi River Pow
er Company.

A rumor is floating about the
streets to the effect that Sonora
township will default in the $1,000
promised the Mississippi River Pow
er Company as the share of the ex-
pense on the new boulevard, says the
Hamilton Press. 1t appears that
while the highway commissioners we're
sincere in pledging the money, the
town auditors question the commits
siioners' right to obligate the town
ship. On this phase of the matter
it is said the voters of the township
divide. Some feel that in the absence
of legal obligation the township should
not pay the money, while others feel
that the moral obligation IN the town
ship is superior to any legal right and
the township should redeem the prom
Use OF its commissioners by paying the
money. This view is supported by
the community generally because the
township has received a roadway
that is far better than the old one
and as time runs on will be more and
more appreciated by the future gen
erations.

kept scratching at this until in few days
her whole cheeks were fiery red color and
instead Of the little blisters the skin was
cracked and scaly looking and seemed to
itch and burn very much.
We used . number OF remedies which

leave her face worse than ever. Finally we
got cake OF Cutcura Soap and box Of
Cuticura Ointment. washed the child's
face with very warm water and Cuticura
Soap. then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about three
times day the itching and burning seemed
entirely gone in two days time. Inside Of

Or Hartman, OF Columbus. Ohio,

He says:
Yes, 1t is the climate. not the germs.
that we have to fear Ia this country.
The germs are present, to be sure.
and are Of some Significance in
diagnosis. Climate, q changeable
climate, IL the true cause OF disease.
The atmospheric pressure varies, the
humidity of the atmosphere changes.
Every day the temperature rises and
falls. Ali this presents to the body
very great trials to adjust to.
The area Of high pressure forms In
the northwest. Moves rapidly south.

population to its influence. The re-

people catch cold. A small per cent.
Of these thousands do not get well Of
their cold. It goes into pneumonia,
or chronic catarrh, or bronchitis, or
larynsitis, or pleurisy.
Now, what am getting at IL this.
These climatic changes are inevitable.
No one can prevent them. The very
best we can do fs to prepare for
them, defend ourselves against them.
Good health 10 the best preventive.
The very best. Vigorous health, with
excess vitality. this is Natures own
preventive and protection.
We do not all have this, however.
Some OF us must have assistance.
The assistance that use for myself,

Some people are very subject to

serted that even in the heart of the
cheapest coal region In the country
the electricity manufactured through
water power can be sold cheaper than
that manufactured by steam.
Must be Available,
Electricity, he said, must be avail
able at all times and is preferable for
power through the fact that 1t can be
turned on and off at will and used just
when needed. No one city is going to
reap all of the benefits of cheap
power, he said, but that it is possible
to transmit the power 200 miles or
more with comparatively little loss.
The time is probably not far distant,
he prophesied, when Clinton will re-
ceive power from Keokuk or the pro-
posed power plant at Davenport.
Following the talk by MIR. Anthony,
Engineer c. P. Chase complimented
Engineer Cooper and Mr.. Anthony on
the fact that Mr.. Cooper and hand
full Of assistants had completed q
$25,000,00O plant in so short time,
attributing it to the fact that Mr..
Cooper and his assistant engineers
worked as high as fifteen hours a day.
Judge A. P. Barker added compli-
ment by calling attention to the fact
that Mr.. Anthony is a graduate of tho
Iowa state college at Ames.

few casualties during the construction
of the dam, nineteen, when the cas-
ualty companies had estimated there
would be thirty-two.

Liverpool Influences were mostly
bearish all week ON account of lib

belt, further improved by today's
snowfall, were additional bear fac
tors.
May corn futures closed at the
same price prevailing at last Satur-

arrivals, together with the Argentine
importations, seemed sufficient to
meet the current demand and efforts

couragement
Oats moved independently Of corn

last weeks prices. Receipts ran low
here and at other markets and the
visible supply decreased moderately.

Other provision futures, however, lost
from 10 to % cents, lacking the sup
