Senator Lea deserves approval for

the agreement. Patterson had disrupt

disaster both to the party and to him
self. Senator Lea undertook the hur-

of us believed it so impossible that
after the democratic party had adopt

leader. Gov. Rye and the legislature
kept the pledges and gave US such
an advance in the great cause we held
so dear that we now feel that the
great cause of temperance, which for
many years has been the paramount
issue in Tennessee politics, is never
again to be an issue at all but the
permanent settled policy of Tennes-
see.
Senator Lea, in all these years, has

GRAND OLD MAN SAYS THAT IT

NOT TO DO so.
HIS Won jERFUL RECORD
Has Been One Of the Greatest Of All
the Friends of Temperance and Has
Accomplished Marvels for the
Cause In Tennessee.
TO the Editor of The Herald:

The temperance issue in Tennessee
has been for many years paramount
issue in politics. Senator Lea fur
nished the first morning daily paper
in our capital city that advocated pro
hibition. 1t did not accept even wits
Ky advertisements, though very re
munerative. In all the early days
when the prohibition sentiment was
not strong and needed friends sorely
LEAFS paper stood by us.
When our leader was defeated in
the democratic primary, he was made
editor of the temperance paper. Two
morning dailies that fought us bitter
ly were bought up by Senator Lea
and suppressed. In fact, for the cause
of prohibition, Senator Lea has pour.
ed out treasure like prince. We
temperance people cannot forget like
ingrates our best friend in time of
need.
Gov. Patterson has usurped the con-
troll of the democratic machinery and
had control all in his hands and was
using it relentlessly against us. 1t
was under LEAFS leadership that Pat
terson's power was broken and
his grip on the party loosened. 1t was
under his leadership that the temper
ance element won a holly contested
battle and sent Patterson to the
mourner's bench. In the McMillin
campaign for the repeal of the four
mile law Senator Lea scratched that
part of the platform that advocated
that repeal and this paper still was
true to the great cause of prohibition
The temperance elements we're de-
feated in both the senate and the
house, but Senator Lea saved the
cause of temperance by his deal with
Crump and prevented repeal That
deal was consummated with many Of
the leading prohibitionists present.

 Considerable damage resulted both in Plainville and Berlin and the Ber- lin trolley line was put out of com mission for a time when a tree broke off and fell across the wires near the town hall.
 TrOllcys Crippled.
 Every trolley line in the city was put out of commission shortly after noon due to trees falling across the feed wires. Two poles at Black Rock carrying feed wires also came down and at 12:3O the tieup became complete. North end car went off the rails on North street near Spring street and put that line out of com- mission for the afternoon. An East Main street car left the rails abruptly at Elm street, showing an inclination to take the Shepherd hill route. The power was off until nearly o'clock and was weak when restored. The effect on the electric lighting service was noticeable for more than an hour The lights glowed feebly, giving meager illumination and people were forced to resort to gas and oil lamps.
 Chimneys Topple.
 Many reports of fallen chimneys were made. At Park and Stanley streets the chimney on the house oc- cupied by Elizabeth Brown was swept to the ground and another house on John street lost it's chimney at about the same time. During the service at the Swedish Bethany church the chimney rolled from the roof and struck the pavement with 8 crash.

Paris, Dec 27, 5 a. m.-'King Peter of Serbia was brought from Durazzo to Avlona: on an Italian cruiser" says the Journals Avlona correspondent. "The voyage was rough and the king had to be carried ashore in an armchair. It was a tragic and heartrending spectacle.
 An automobile carried the mon arch to secluded inn opposite Italian headquarters where l called upon him and was shown into the poorly furnished room he occupied. His clear eyes, what depths of bitter ness did they conceal; his features, hollowed by suffering what immense weariness did they betray! That sor- rowful countenance was the epitome of the whole tragic epoch.
 ''No Longer King
 "The physician who interpreted for me told me that upon his arrivel the King asked the price of the room ana added that he had no gold to pay for it. T am no longer King, he said, T am only General Tootani (th1s name which will shelter the kings in cognito during his exile is that of a powerful family of Tirana to which Essad Pasha belongs.) I give no more orders. It is the crown prince who commands. For the future am nothing in the government. A soldier, I have only to obey And the army your majesty?' I asked.
 My soldiers, are dropping from hunger and weariness. We must feed them and then after a few weeks rest we shall see!'

 "What are your own plans, Sire? ?'
 "I want to go to Saloniki to see my minister of war. If this is possible I shall arrange something. I have got to live to see victory for my people and the triumph of our just cause.'"
