volume of vehement protests
from their constituents that this
provision will likely be taken out
of the bill. Postmaster-general
Burleson has made two sweeping
changes in the last eight months
and if the power to make further
reductions in Parcel Post rates is
taken out of his hands, where it
belongs, it will take several years
to get a measure through Con-
gress affording a reduction. This
is what the express companies
want, and what they will get if
the people of this country go to
sleep and allow it.

"Old Time Religion" Needed

Congressman Bartholdt did not
get much sympathy the other day
when he alluded to the necessity
for something stronger than mere
law for the protection of men
against temptations, declaring in
effect, that social immortality and
the tax of women upon the dis
cipline of mems natural propen-
sites would have to be abolished
by arbitrary restraints before that
state regarded by many reformers
as the only perfect one, can be at
tanned. The news columns of The
Times recently have shown that
the Missourian was not far wrong.
We have all sorts of laws for the
restraint of mems evil propensities
but occurrences daily reported
show how manifestly Intellectual
they are without the restraints of
character and the recognition of
individual moral responsibility. At
Asheville, N. c., the other day
one R. M. Jetton, a man of affairs,
killed DR.. Wooten, a prominent
physician-there was a wife in the
case.
AT Knoxville Friday night a
young man named Bozel was shot
and killed by w. B. Farmer, a po-
liceman. The tragedy was the
result of Bozels improper intim-
acy with Farmers wife.
The Sunday Chattanooga Times
of yesterdays date contained an
item from Philadelphia relating
that Carl Kinlock, 80 years of
age" shot and killed an elderly
woman he did not know, while
trying to kill a waitress who had
spurned his love. He wounded
the waitress and killed himself. In
the same city OH the same day
Herman Peters shot aud killed
two women against whom he had
a grudge, shot two others, serious
ly wounding them and then killing
himself. The net result of these
incidents was nine dead and sever
al injured.
There is need of something
more stabilizing than the mere
passage Of laws. Something is
getting the matter with the hui
man heart that doesn't seem to
yield to the treatment prescribed
by the busy reformers who have
been prescribing and relying up
on nostrums and quack pallatives
for its cure. The criminal courts
of the country are being kept al
most in continuous sessions and
still the remedy does not appear.
Perhaps the application of a bit of
the "old time religion" more sin
cerely and devotedly preached
with less attention to the things
that belong to Caesar would bring
about a healthier moral condition.

Or some irregularity of the

A splendid remedy for such at

A medicine that has satisfied
thousands
Is Doan's Kidney Pills.
Thousands ofpeople rely upon it.
Here is one case:
j. Ford, Naillon, Tenn, says:
We have used Doan's Kidney
Pills with fine results and we all
praise them. One of our family
suffered for years from disorder
ed kidneys and complained a great
deal of backache. When we heard
how beneficial Doan's Kidney
Pills were in such cases, he pro-
cured supply and they made
him well. Doan's Kidney Pills are
entitled to the entire credit for
this cure, as no other remedy was
used"

The first serious friction be-
tween President Wilson and Con-
gress is just appearing. Presi-
dent Wilson is urging Congress to
repeal the provision which pro-
vides that our domestic or coast
wise trade may pass through the
Panama Canal free of tolls. The
President has concluded that these
free tolls would be a violation of
the treaty we have with Great
Britain and he therefore urges
Congress to repeal the act. Con-
gress is very bitterly opposed to
complying with this request and
the indications are that likely a
fight between the President and
Congress may be precipitated.

Election day approaches and it
will be day of disappointment
for many of those in the race.
Every nominee should be named
because Of his qualifications and
not for his personality. The peo-
pie employ the men who hold Of
flee and they should see to it that
they employ only those who have
the best recommendations. A man
may be good fellow and still he
would not be the map you would
hire to keep your books and look
after your business. The same
thing holds good in politics and
while many of the candidates, and
in fact all are considered good fell
lows, the people should name
only those they would select to
look after their private business.
Spring is approaching and it is
a happy time of the year and it
should be a time when the bust
ness men of Newport have a
friendly feeling toward each other.
Cooperation on the part of New
ports business men could make
this one of the leading cities of
Tennessee. It's natural advan-
tages are surpassed by none and
the only thing which has kept the
town back in the class with Nor
ristown and the other villages has
been the fact that it's business
men have not realized their ad-
and made the proper eff
fort to bring capital and outside
manufacturing industries here. If
the business men of Morristown
had the natural advantage of New
port, Morristown would by this
time be considering Knoxville as
q mere suburb.
The post office appropriation
bill has been amended with a pro-
vision that any future changes in
the Parcel Post rates must be
made by act Of congress and that
the postmaster-general shall no
longer change the rate in the in-
Eerest of the people with the ap-
proval of the Interstate Commerce
Commission which is the law at
the present time. The Postmas-
ter-general has heavily reduced
the rate in the last year so that
now the Parcel Post is a great
service to the American people. It
has also taken large block of
trade away from the Express
Companies. 1t is believed that
they are behind this move on the
part of the Senate in attempting
