RRYAN's OPPOSITION.

Announcement of Bryan's opposi.
ton to the Presidents plans for the
national defense will cause no sur
| prise. Mr. Bryan is decidedly peace
at any price advocate. He left the
cabinet at a crucial time because OF
his aversion to war under any circum-
stances. The fact that Mr.. Bryan
did not approve the Presidents pol
/ icy with respect to the Lusitania and
made his opposition the occasion for
desertion of the helm of state,
coupled with the splendi diplomatic
victory won by Wilson for America,
humanity and civilization, very large
ly discredits the fight which he will
make on the army and navy pro-
gram of the administration.
Wilson is man of peace and pat
fence, as are large majority OF
those who are now advocating his
plans for the defense. But the presi-
dent does not believe in supine
submission to wrong. He believes
that there are some things worse
than war among the number being
the loss of national self-respect. 1t
were better that a man should die
than they he should forever forfeit
his own self-respect 1t were bet
ter that a nation should fight, with
all the woes and misery and cost of
war, than that it should forfeit all
right to the respect of its own people
or that of the world.
This is a great world power. 1t is
one of the greatest and after the
catastrophe in Europe ends, it will
be the first nation of the world. It's
greatness and power carry with them
certain obligations, not alone to its
own people but to the people OF all
the world, to the cause of Christian
civilization and common humanity
This nation must be prepared to eX-
ercise those powers. II hopes and
expects to enforce its rights by
peaceful means always, but it should
and will be prepared for eventual
ties. The people of this country are
with their president in his plea for
better defensive plans. Mr.. Bryan
with all of his great powers of in
tellect and eloquence will not be
able to hamper or embarrass the adj

EXIT CRuMP.

For the first time in more than
ten years Edward H. Crump has ceas'
ed to be a prominent figure in the Of
fetal life of Memphis. His career
has been a remarkable one and holds
few parallels in the history of this
or any other Southern state. For the
past six years he has dominated
Memphis, Shelby county and at times
the state of Tennessee. He has been
a smooth and adroit politician. He
overplayed the game. Whether he
will be able at the end of the pending
custer suit, to come back" is a very
doubtful question. A political boss
when at the height of his political
power is a much more powerful ruler
than a majority of the crowned mon
archs of the old world. But when he
is down and out robbed of the pow
err of place and patronage there are
few to do him honor.
Crump commenced his political ca
reer in Memphis by making war on
the old Joe Williams machine. one
of the most powerful that city ever
knew. He actively fought the Pat
terson machine charter bill that the
supreme court knocked out. When a
new commission act was passed in
1909 he became a candidate for may
or and won by a small majority. His
election was contested in the courts,
but he was successful. From that
time until the filing of the custer
suit he was practically supreme in
Shelby county. He dictated all the
city and county officers and named
the legislative delegations. Through
the eleven members of that county at
times he held the balance of power in
the state legislative halls. He WELD
ed a power that no good politician
would want" and no bad politician
should have" His influence was a
menace to the state. However, had
he recognized the strength of the SEN
timent in Tennessee for law enforce
ment and the determination of the
people to Danish the liquor traffic he
might have continued a few years
longer the dominant figure of his
county.
Crump never could become recon-
cfied to state wide prohibition. He
refused to execute the laws. His Of
tense merits the punishment which
he has received. It is a pity that one
of the ability, the force and the many
splendid qualities of the Memphis
mayor would place himself in abso-
lutte antagonism to the best sentiment
Of whole state. Crump is an able
and attractive man He has a most
pleasing personality and is said by
those who know him to be a man of
clean life, devoted to his family and
upright in his daily walk. Had he de-
pended more upon an honest ana
fearless adherence to official duty and
less upon the lawless liquor interests
he would not now be out of Office.

ELECTION RESULTS.

Candidly and frankly, between us
democrats, the election results on
Tuesday do not look good. They in
dictate that at this time our President,
great in achievement as he has been,
would have hard shedding to get an
other term. The congressional cleo
tons last year were not encouraging
and the results on Tuesday show still
further gains for the republicans. If
the states that voted on Tuesday
should vote the same way next year
it will push the democrats nightly
if they are saved from crushing de-
feat. Republican gains we're noted in
New Jersey, Massachusetts,, New
York and Ohio, and in Kentucky the
result was entirely too close for COM
fort.
Every one of these states gave
their electoral votes by large plurali-
ties to Wilson three years ago. Even
New Jersey showed republican gains.
Based on the vote Tuesday it will
give Wilson's opponent its electoral
vote next year. In New York, while
the elections were local, it was plain
that the trend was largely toward the
republicans. In the old Bay State a
republican will succeed a democrat as
governor. These results are all the
more remarkable when it is remem-
bered that in some of these states,
notably Massachusetts,, the republi-
