INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATS.

There are two other daily newspa
pers in Tennessee besides The Sun
whose independence in politics can
always be depended upon. The Chat
tanooga News and the Columbia Her.
aid almost always mold to the same
principles as those advocated by The
Sun. We could not express our po-
sition on the present political situa-
ton in Tennessee better than 1t is
stated by The Columbia Herald in an
editorial commencing the course OF
the Chattanooga News.
We believe all the independent
voters in Tennessee who helped to
break up the old Democratic machine
will be found as independent In the
next election as they have been in
the past. They are not going to be
led into any kind of false alliance,
although they are open minded and
ready to support Democratic ticket
whenever it conforms to their belief
as to what is right Jackson Sun.

in the senate voted to white WASH
Mr.. Worley we would not have been
satisfied, in the light of the evidence
presented. The fact that Butler Vot-
ed to acquit Worleg does not in the
least change our opinion of the iniqul-
ties practiced by the revenue agent
under the back tax laws. The Her
aid is an independent journal, fact
that it is difficult fer Organs" wheth-
err they are "pro-liquor' or prohlpl-
ton organs, to understand. 1t is NOT
at all creditable to the administra-
ton that one of it's chief officials yot-
ed to "whitewash" Worley. Nor is 1t
at all creditable to the so-called reg
ular" democratic organization in Ten-
nessee, that it's leaders in the last leg
islature stood responsible for the
outrages perpetrated under the back
tax laws. We hope that the day will
come some time when newspapers
and voters will condemn the wrong
in all public servans, regardless OF
political Affiliations.

ALASKAN RAILROAD
BILL PASSES HOUSE
APPRoPRIATEs $35,ooo,ooo FOR
CONSTRUCTION OF GREAT
HIGHWAY IN FOR NORTH.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The ad-
ministration Alaskan railroad bill,
authorizing the President to con-
struct a $35,0OO,OOO railroad in Alas
ka, was passed by the house late to-
day by vote of 230 to 81.
A similar measure has already
passed the senate and the bills will
be taken up at once in conference be-
tween the two houses, with a view
to sending it quickly to the Presi-
dent, who has signified his intention
of signing it.
At the eleventh hour, after sharp
parliamentary skirmish, the house
eliminated from the bill as reported
by the territroes committee, a pro.
vision authorizing a bond issue of
$35, 100000 to finance the railroad and
to be paid off by the proceeds of gov
eminent land sales in Alaska. The
senate bill provided for a $4O,OOO,OOO
bond issue. Representative Fitzger-
aid, of New York, led a fight which
resulted in striking out the entire
bond provision from the bill.
Under the amended measure the
project would be financed out of cur
rent funds in the treasury, the Presi-
dent being limited to $35,O00,OO0 and
$1,OOO,OO0 being appropriated for i'm.
mediate expense. Congress would
appropriate each year the amount es-
timated as necessary for the con-
struction of the road.

THE SCHOO. RALLY.

County Superintendent Graham and
the educational interests OF the coun-
ty are to be congratulated upon the
big demonstration here for better
schools on Thursday. The presence
of so many bright faced, intelligent
boys and girls proved, as nothing
else could, the necessity for even
effort in behalf of batter educational
facilities in the county. The COM
mon school practical education
should be placed within the reach Of
every boy and girl in the county
The states which have the smallest
per cent of illiteracy are the states
that have the largest proportion Of
wealth and the smallest percentage
of crime and pauperism. Whenever
our people fully realize these facts
we shall have no trouble IT, securing
the funds necessary to properly edu-
cate the youth Of toe lind. Maury
county has been somewhat Of lag
gard in the educational progress Of
the state and the south. but within
recent years it's advance has been
phenomenal. There should be no
halt the work must go on until our
schools are equal to every legitimate
demand that may be made upon
them.
