THE COUNTY CONTEST.

1t is to be sincerely regretted that
Maury county is again in the throes
Of a factional political contest. We
had hoped that, there no longer being
issues at stake that have divided the
people in the past, we would be spar.
ed contest for the legislature this
year. At this time of world wide
stress and turmoil, Of national, indus.
trial and commercial depression. we
should stand together and nothing
should be done to open any old sores
or divide the people into factions.
Particularly should the people of the
South discourage the political agita-
tors. We should devote the energy
and the enthusiasm that are expend-
ed in political contests to the devel-
opment and conservation of our mag
niticent resources. In these circum-
stances The Herald has been very
much opposed to any unnecessary po-
llLlCdl dSlldIlOu.
Candor compels us to say that some
regular democrats, so-called, manifest
ed a decided sentiment in sympathy
with this spirit. They were appar-
emily willing to meet their former
foes more than half way to avoid
strife. But unfortunately there were
those more interested in the success
of a candidate for governor than they
were in the general welfare of the
country and we have now recur-
renee of the deplorable conditions
that have divided us in the past. The
Herald will do nothing to arouse any
feeling or excite any passion over the
contest.
This journal Is not concerned
about the fortunes of politicians. 1t
believes that there is something else
in life besides politics. 1t is convinc-
ed that we have had altogether too
much strife and discord in this state.
1t will do absolutely nothing to d.
vide the people. 1t will counsel mod
Grafton and peace. 1t will urge that
the people, instead of giving them
selves to the political passions of the
hour, devote their energies to the up
building of the county and state.

SENATOR CHURCH.

Democrats of Maury county, IRE
spective of their factional differences
are to be congratulated upon tn
wise action taken by the regular con
vention on Monday endorsing J. W. c
Church for reelection to the senate
Mr.. Church has served one term il
the senate and if there has been an!
criticism of his record upon the par
of those who elected him two years
ago we have not heard of it. Now
his former political opponents have
paid him the unusual tribute of theil
endorsement This should insure
his election and we believe that il
will.
1t is a harbinger of better things
In Tennessee; the sign of the dawn OF
that time when factional strife and
.discord will end, when the democrat
ic party dominates man like
Church for the senate. 1t is an ear
nest of the good faith of the rehabili-
tated party in the state. Mr.. Church
served with credit in the senate. He
made good record. No one can ques-
ton his devotion to the temperance
cause. There is not democrat in
Maury cunty who stands more
squarely and flatfootedly for temper
ance than Church. He stands now
where he stood two years ago. The
democratic party, the party of his
youth and of his choice, is standing
for just what Church stood for in his
first campaign for the senate. It's
candidate for Governor is standing
firmly upon his platform and there is
absolutely no reason why Church in
this contest should not support Rye.
1t is our judgment that had the
regular democrats all over Tennes-
see nominated men like Church,
with records for firm adherence to
principle, the election of Rye would
now be assured. The policy of
prescription that has been followed in
some sections will result in throwing
a damper upon many independents
who otherwise would have been glad
to join in the movement to again
make Tennessee a democratic state.
We can conceive of no reason now
why any genuine supporter Of tenn
perance should hesitate to support
Church.

KEEP IT STRAIGHT.

In lengthy statement recently is
sued to the people Of Tennessee, the
Independent state committee declares
that fusion has existed in the cam
paigns of the past six years. This is
not correct The democrats and re-
publicans fused" for the first time
in the election of four years ago. 1t
is often insisted that the legislature
of 1909, the body that enacted the
prohibition and election laws, was a
fusion legislature. This is not true.
In the campaign of 1908 there was no
sort of fusion between democrats and
republicans. Only one democratic
senator in that year was elected in
opposition to the regular democratic
nominee. OF the democrats in the
senate who voted for the prohibition
and election laws, but one, Blackburn,
of Giles. was elected as an independ-
emit Fusion was effected after the
legislature was elected. 1t was
strictly an afterthought. 1t did not
occur unity caucuses of the demo-
Gratis of the senate and house were
actually in session. 1t was in 1910
and 1912 that an effort was made to
elect fusionists to the legislature. In
both campaigns the effort to control
a majority failed.
1T, is just as, well to keep the record

BUYING HOME GOODS.

In featuring American made goods
the two big department stores of Co
lumbia, Anderson Bros. & Foster and
the Maury Dry Goods Company, are
to be highly commended, Not only
should we buy at home but so far as
possible we should buy American
manufactured goods and goods that
are made from American grown or
American produced materials. Ev-
erything possible, should be done to
encourage the manufacture and use
Of cotton goods. The people Of this
section should heartily and unreserv'
sdly cooperate with the merchants
who are trying to arouse our patriot
Ism in this matter.
Although Maury county does not
depend upon cotton, growing COM
paratively lite OF the staple, it does
DEPEND for a large measure Of its
Drpsperity upon the cotton country
! south of US. Not only does patriot.
ism but a selfish interest dictates that
we do everything possible to stimu-
hate the cotton producing industry.
Il is surprising how beautiful and how
attractive and how durable our home
made goods are, containing as they
DO a majority portion of cotton In the
make up. We have long placed'a fic.
4itious and unwarranted value upon
imported goods" We have stressed
tie yalpe and quality Of articles made
IN Europe for no other reason than
that they came from the fashion CEN
ters Of the world America can and
does make just as good articles as
are made anywhere in the world and
they can be sold to the ultimate con-
sumer more cheaply than those i'm
ported can be obtained. Let US trade
1t home; buy from those who help to
support our institutions and also use
as far as possible the materials that
are grown and manufactured In Amer
lea. II all will do this, II we will ex-
ercise little business judgment and
make some drafts upon our patriot
ism we will be surprised at the splen-
did results that will follow.
