NASHVILLE, Tenn, March U.s.
Remarkable history is being made IN
Tennessee these days. During the
past two weeks notable events have
occurred in the political life of the
state.
On Monday, March 16, the indie
pendent state committee met at his
toric room No. So of the Maxwell
House, the room in which all the con-
ferences and caucuses and headquar-
tiers of the anti-Patterson forces of
the state have been held for eight
years. At that committee meeting
was witnessed the remarkable spec
tacle of the veteran independents lust
lily applauding Patterson, as Tennes-
sees great convert" Had Patter-
son appeared and made speech at
that meeting he would have been &C
corded an ovation.
On Friday, March u, eleven days
later, another event just as remark
able occurred at the same hotel in
this city. On that date the regular
state democratic committee convened,
forgot the past, swallowed whatever
opposition to existing conditions the
members might have felt, and with
one dissenting voice, declared for
state wide prohibition, the rigid en-
forcement of the laws, and such addl-
tional legislation as might be necessa-
ry to make easier law enforcement.
But they did not stop there, would
you believe It?
This same committee, the author
lied governing body Of the democrat
ic organization in Tennessee, emphat-
ically declared in favor Of the present
election 1aws-Iaws that have created
quite as much or more confusion, tur-
moil and strife and produced three
legislative hegfras, with all their at
tedant evils.
That picturesque and homely
phrase, 1.-THE world do move" comes
just about as nearly describing the
situation as any words to be found in
the language.
1t all recalls some observations
made a few days ago in these columns
to the effect that there is nothing
stable or consistent about politics or
politicians.
Some of the prime movers in the
above declarations were men who
have been consistent followers of M.
R. Patterson, they have fought with
might and main the triumph of prohi-
bition, and after the laws were pass
ed they gave all the weight of their
influence to the persistent campaign
of notification. They were parties
to the enactment of the quorumless
election law. They have done all
that within their power was possible
to stop the wheels Of progress. The
were whipped; they made no bones
of admitting that further opposition
was futile.
There are in the ranks of the regu-
lars, just as there are in the ranks
of all political organizations, the op-
portunists, men who are for the thing
that they think will win. Principle
cuts no figure. Consistency is to them
"the hobgobblin of little minds" Men
of this sort opposed prohibition prob
ably because it was not then popular;
they are just as heartily in favor of
it now because they believe that it is
popular.
Then there are regulars who are

realize that party success can never
be achieved by fighting the will o.
the people. They illustrate the ole
couplet which runs like this:
when the devil is sick,
The devil monk would be
But when the devil was we'll,
The devil of monk was he."
When the regulars" had power in
the affairs of state, they held high
carnival; they sought to destroy all
of the reforms that had been wroug.1.,
through years of effort. Then the
party was we'll" it was enjoying a
bit OF power; now it is apparent that
the party is sick; the organization is
badly afflicted; it cannot stand on its
present legs much longer 1t would
therefore be monk.
Candor requires that reference be
made to the members of the commit
tee who are and have always been in
favor of temperance, law enforce
ment and honest elections. There
are on the committee several original
independents, men who followed the
late Senator Carmack in his great
campaign of 1908, the campaign that
resulted in the state wide prohibition
law, men who rebelled against the
Patterson machine and supported the
independent judiciary and some of
them voted for Hooper in his first
campaign.
Among the genuine and consistent
supporters of prohibition when that
question was really at issue in the
state are James H. Bundren, of the
second district; Lon Faust, member
from the third district, the author Of
the bill that killed race track gam
bling in Tennessee; James B. Walker,
of the seventh district and Arch Pat
terson of the eighth district. These
men were of course sincerely and
genuinely gratified that the party had
come around to their way of thinking
1t may be said that those Of the
class just mentioned did not stand by
the independent organization and re.
main adherents of fusion to the end:
and that is true, but they honestly be-
lieved that their cause could be bet
ter served within the party than out
of it and some of them were saying
here yesterday that had other indie
pendents taken the same course the
democratic party would have been
regenerated and reformed at much
earlier date.
One thing is certain: the prohibit
ton question, the enforcement of the
laws and the election laws now upon
the statute books cannot properly De
made issues in the coming campaign.
That is no party organization in Ten
nessee will challenge the position CT
the independents upon these ques-
tons. There will not be any more OF
an organized effort in Tennessee this
good year of grace to change the cleo
ton laws or the prohibition laws than
there will be to repeal the laws
against pistol toting or murder. That
much is settled. There Is not the
slightest doubt about the state con-
vention at its meeting on May q
making the same platform that the
committee made here yesterday.
Now, the doubling Thomas asks,
How sincere are the regulars in their
new profession Of faith?' That has
been answered by the above analysis.
Some of them, for the reasons men
toned, are not sincere, they are op-
