toll is giving him enthusiastic sup
port. With practical unanimity the
bar of that city has Endorsed his can
didacy, and it is a re-assuring and
significant fact that similar conditions
exist relating to the Endorsement
given him by the bar at Johnson City,
the home of Judge Williams.
Since Judge Burrow is eminently
fitted for the service and is worthy of
the distinguished honor, there re-
mains no reason why the democrats
of the state should withhold their
support from him, but on the other
hand there is the best and strongest
reasons why they should give him
their most cordial support.
AS soon as the democratic party had
acted in making nominations the Ten
nessean and American accepted the
result as that of the combined wis
dom of the democrats of the state and
became the advocate of the election of
the democratic ticket. We have indi-
Gated our preference by running this
democratic ticket at the head of our
editorial page, which we shall con-
tinue to do until after the fight is
over.
1t is our mature judgment that the
democratic party and it's nominees
will better conserve the interests and
welfare of the state and the people
than the republican party and it's
nominees could possibly do, and as the
judiciary candidates of one party are
as deeply involved in politics as those
of another party, we feel that it is
the logical and reasonable thing to
prefer those of the democratic party.
If elected Judge Burrow will not
only add strength to the court of
which he will be a member but he
will increase the honors that shall be
conferred upon him by rendering that
service which his talents and eff
cheney misunderstanding Tennes-
sean.

JUDGE ROBERT BURRoW.

Judge Robert Burrow, the democrat
ic nominee for supreme judge, is ma
tive born East Tennessean and comes
from one of the best known families in
this section of the State. From his
youth he has been full of energy and
by hard work and native ability has
reached high standard as lawyer.
During his practice at the bar he has
appeared in some of the most impor-
tant cases ever tried in this section of
the state and has held his own with
the strongest lawyers of the state. In
politics he has always been democrat
and has been classed as an independent
but long ago threw off the yoke and
has stood for his party. The esteem in
which he is held is shown by practical
ly the unanimous endorsement given
him by the members of the Bristol bar,
and the same was shown by the en-
dorsement given him by nearly all the
members of the bar at Johnson City,
which is the home of Judge Williams,
the Hooper appointee and candidate,
who is opposing Burrow. Judge Bur
row deserves to be overwhelmingly
elected in August and those who are
in position to know feel sure such
will be the result-Newport PlainTalk.

FRYE" CAMPAIGN SONG HAS
COME FROM HAWKINS co.

The Times is in receipt of verses
written by distinguished lawyer and
democrat of Hawkins county, which,
in case the democratic state cam
paign manager wishes a song, appear
to offer the means of allowing Gen,
Rye's supporters to give vent to their
enthusiasm during the coming fight,
The verses follow:
Now, we're all for prohibition;
No talk of wet and dry
But still some show a disposition
To banker after Rye.
Rye, Rye, good old Rye,
They'll have to vote for Rye.
Time was when moonshine made Of
corn
Was peddled on the sly;
But now, for him who wants a horn,
There's nothing left but Rye.
Rye, Rye, good old Rye,
He'll have to vote for Rye.
There's no more rum nor brandy,
No mater where yJu try;
Nor gin fo> cocktails handy.
Our My hope is Rye.
Rye, Rye, good old Rye,
Well surely vote for Rye.
So when November frosts are here,
And things continue dry,
Without drop of wine or beer,
Turn out and vote for Rye,
Rye, Rye, good old Rye,
Well all go home a-shouting,
If we work and vote for Rye.

The nomination of Thomas c. Rye
cratic party.
AS a candidate for governor of Ten
nesseehe goes before the people on a
definite platform and with good per-
sonal record.
He has been a straight democrat.
He has been straight in everything.
AS an Encouragement of one of
the districts in West Tennessee he
made splendid officer. He attempt
ed to enforce the laws as they were
written. He did not make fish of one
and fowl OF another. He played no
favorites.
Geographically, the nomination is
fortunate. In Mr.. Rye's judicial dis
trict there are many former democ-
Gratis who had fallen into the habit of
voting for republicans. These people
have confidence in Mr.. Rye and they
will support him.
West Tennessee, under ordinary
conditions, is the Gibraltar of the do
mocracy iof the state.
Mr.. Rye will be able to bring back
to the party those who have strayed
away and to command the enthusiast
tic support of those who have always
voted the democratic ticket except
when they went fishing.
Mr.. Rye has the advantage of being
nominated in such a manner that the
charge that he is the product of a po-
litical machine will not rest
He is supported by friends of SEN
ator Lea in Davidson county. The
Lea delegation in Davidson county
was not seated. The delegation from
Chattanooga supported Mr.. Preston.
The delegation from Shelby support
ed Mr.. Everett.
Mr.. Rye, then, owes his victory to
the country delegations. In the coun-
try the chief inroads against the reg
ular democracy have been made.

JUDGE BURROW FOR
SUPREME BENCH.

Judge Robert Burrow, the demo-
cratic nominee for supreme Judge and
who is to be voted for in the forth
coming August election, should be
elected by the people of Tennessee,
not altogether because he is the DEM
ocratic nominee, though this fact
should have great weight, but espe-
cially because he is eminently quail
fed in every essential to make an
able, serviceable and worthy member
of the court.
The same delegates who nominated
Tom Rye nominated Judge Burrow.
They represented the democratic
masses of the state. They constitut-
ed a large and respectable represent
tativs body, and the action they took
in selecting a democratic candidate
for supreme judge shuold have great
weight with the people when they
preme court.
We have no word of disparagement
for Judge Williams, who is the nomi-
nee of the conventions which nomi-
mated Hooper for governor and who is
advocating the election of a republic
can for governor, but assuming that
Judge Williams and Judge Burrow
are equally well equipned of equal ca
pacity and of equal merit, we feel that
it is incumbent upon all democrats to
stand by the nominee of their own
party just as all republicans are call
ed upon to stand by the nominee of
their party.

SUPREME JUDGESTdIP

The Sentinel has been on the look
out for information why the candidacy
of Judge S. G. Williams for election to
the supreme court bench of Tennessee
is in the interest of the free and I'M
trammeled judiciary and why Judge
Burrow is less untrammeled than his
opponent. Judge Williams was ap-
pointed by Gov. Hooper. Gov. Hooper
has many excellent qualities, but no.
body has asserted that he is not par
tisan leader. 1t is not of record that
Gov. Hooper invited the bar of the
state to name suitable appointee to
fill the supreme court vacancy. Judge
Williams was nominated for election
by independent democratic and repub-
lican conventions, strictly speaking
the republicans passed the nomination
to the independent democrats and then
endorsed it, knowing in advance that
Judge Williams would be nominated.
The democratic convention nominated
Judge Burrow. In what way is the
one more or less trammeled than the
other? The character and the judicial
fitness of the one is as well established
as the other. Then why should the
friends of Judge Burrow be asked to
cast their ballots for Judge Williams
and why should supporters of the
state democracy cast their ballots for
the nominee of the fusion organization
instead of for the nominee of the dem
ocratic convention?-KnoXville Sen
tinel.

WHY HOOPER?

Frequent Nominations upon the
part of Ben w. Hooper, accidental
governor of Tennessee, appear to in
dictate that he is raising the old jeff
Davis cry of "the silk stockings
against the hill billies."
1t is hard to conceive that the peo-
pie of Tennessee have reached a point
when they are willing to continue
Hooper and his henchmen in power
for the sole purpose of waging war
upon the big cities, and Memphis in
particular.
CHANGING over the four-year record
of Gov. Hooper, one is forced to the
inevitable conclusion that he has
never played principle for principles
sake, and that his entire political atti-
tude has been influenced solely by a
desire for self-aggrandizement.
All denials to the contrary, it is
well known that he was perfectly
willing to forego any prohibition leg
islation to secure the support of Shell
by county against McMillin. 1t is well
known also that he was equally as
willing to trade everything he had in
sight to secure the support of the
Shelby county legislative delegation
in the last session of the general as
sembly. 1t is likewise known by the
public that he never turned against
the proposition to let Memphis alone
until he was forced by the Cox bill to
place himself on record for or against
the prohibition propaganda. Then,
having secured all that he believed
was necessary at the hands of the
Shelby delegation, he went deliberate
ly back on his word, and Logan the
bitter, personal war upon Mayor
Crump that has been existent ever
since.
If Gov. Hooper had made a fight
straight out for prohibition legisla-
ton, If he had declared himself as
willing to stand or fall upon his tee
total platform, and had spurned the
Crump support because it was for To-
cal option, he would now be in de-
feasible position. But having first
started for that support, having OBJ
tanned 1t for time, and then, when
he believes the sponge to be wrung
dry, has cast it aside, he is in no posi-
ton to cry now for the great princi-
Piles of law enforcement"
When Gov, Hooper's strongest per-
sonal supporters are in a position to
pass by the alluring bottle, when a
barroom has no longer any attrac-
tons for them, he will then be in a
position to free himself and his fol-
lowers from the charge of playing to
the galleries.

tive to begin his campaign in Mem

AFRICANUS BEN.

In another column we print Gov.
Hooper's letter to this paper in which
he makes both light and severe COM
ments upon an editorial we printed on
his comments on the nomination of
Rye, which he wound up by ANNOUNCE
ing that he was going to open his
campaign for the cause of righteous
ness in the city of Memphis.
Mr.. Hooper quotes the expression
that he used. The Commercial-Ap-
peal denounced the expression not
for what it literally covered, but for
the spirit that moved it. 1t did not
denounce it in the way Gov Hooper
said it did.
Gov. Hooper took advantage of a
certain hostile attitude in the minds
of some people toward the city of
Memphis when he used the express
sion.
The tone of his article in discuss
ing Memphis was that this city was
lawless, that the administration of the
law was reckless and that this peo-
pie, rich in commerce like the old
Carthaginians rolled on pillows Of
champagne and beer, and were unre-
generate.
The governors whole statement
was holler-than-tho preachment.
Any fairminded man reading it would
come to the conclusion that Memphis
was singled out as the wost city in
the state, and that Mr. Hooper, as the
leader of the forces of law and right
eousness, as the hierophaat of the
anointed, the archimandrite of the
elect, as the Michael of the serried
hosts of the saints of Middle and East
Tennessee, would come and plant his
spear in the middle of Court Square
and defy the forces of darkness and
lawlessness that are supreme here.
We are getting little tired of hav-
ing politicians getting Office by beat
ing Memphis over the back by kick
ing the corporate body of the city in
the ribs.
There was nothing in the statement
itself, but the spirit of the whole in
terview was mean and little, and we
were surprised that Gov. Hooper
whom we always attempt to treat
fairly in the columns of this paper
was so weak that he resorted to that
sort of demagogy to make hit with
the people.
Gov. Hooper will never be treated
unfairly by this paper if we know it.
His statements will never be miscon-
strued or misrepresented Intentional
ly. All the same time this paper
would be unworthy of its position in
Memphis if it did not protest against
palpable misrepresentation of this
city.
Gov. Hooper's whole idea of wicked
ness is the buying and selling of
booze, and on this 10Th day of June,
1914, we believe it is harder to buy
jigger of whiskey or a bottle of beer
in Memphis than it would be in
GAINESVILLE, Nashville, Chattanooga or
Knoxville.
And yet those cities are enforcing
the prohibition law with about the
same amount of success with which
this law is usually enforced.
The governor says in his last SEN
tence that "it requires a large degree
of insincerity for any man to distort
my words to mean that l entertain
any feeling of hostility for your city
and it's good people"
In that sentence is his insincerity.
He entertains no spirit of hostility to-
ward Memphis, but he does know that
well-defined prejudice exists in
many parts of this state. He simply
said what he did to fatten that preiu-
dice and be it's resultant beneficiary.
