A GOOD MEASURE.

Senator Gardner's bill providing
for the interchange of judges of the
oircuit and criminal courts OF the
state has been recommended for pass
age by the judiciary committee ant
made o special order in the senate
on February "a. This is one Of the
most important and effective OF tht
several measures designed to aid in
the enforcement of the laws OF the
state It is bill that long age
should have been upon the statute
books. Under the provisions of the
act the chief justice of the supreme
court shall have the power and 1t
shall be his duty to direct the inter
change of the judges of the several
criminal and circuit courts of Ten
nessee The expenses incident to
the interchanges shall be paid out
of the state treasury.
Under this proposed act it shall
also be the duty of the governor and
the attorney general of the state to re-
port to the chief justice the existence
of such conditions in sny county or
circuit of the state, as "in the judg-
ment of either of them render it ad-
visable to have such interchange Of
judges to secure a better enforce
ment of the law" In other words
for example, if a judge in an East
Tennessee circuit failed or refused
to have certain laws executed wlLuln
his jurisdiction then the chief JUS
tice upon the presentation Of that
fact by the governor or attorney gen.
eral, could direct some other Judge
TO hold the courts in the circuit of
the delinquent judge. This would be
a splendid arrangement. 1t would
never work hardship on the Judge
who Is doing his best to execute the
laws of the state. It would, however,
enable the people to obtain the SER
vices of a judge who would faith
fully execute the duties of that
ONCE. It will be most unfortunate
II this bill or one similar to 1t should
not be enacted during this session
Of the legislature.

JUSTICE IN POLITICS.

A few days ago The Herald pub

Justice. How unfortunate it is that
we do not have a better sense of jus.
tice in our politics in this country
What party organization would be
willing to leave any question to the
decision Of its party opponents?
What public man would expect JUS
tice from a committee made up ex-
clusively Of political opponents? We
do not have a properly developed
sense Of justice in our courts. Our

sentimentality and mawkish sympa.

and 1912.
Now what good policy is to be ad
! anced by the effort so aggressively
made to place another Interpretation
upon the result of last falls election
Why attempt to discredit the thous-
nds and thousands of independent
democrats who in 1910 and 1912 elect
ed Hooper governor and in 1914 elect
ed Rye to the same Office? Why this
fort to saddle upon Hooper and
those responsible for him the sins of
the regular democrats during four
years of fusion control? Every fair
student of history knows that it was
hostile legislature and not Hooper
nd fusion that gave to Tennessee
bankrupt treasury. Then we ask
what good purpose is going to be &C.
omplished by this campaign of mis-
representation Is IL CdICuldLeu TO
bring about peace in the state and TO
estore concord and good feeling
among democrats?
The treasury Is practically empty;
t has not sufficient money to meet
urrent obligations. Let's admit
hese facts and set ourselves reso.
lutely to the task of providing a rem
dy. Discussion of the causes for
this deplorable condition will not be
rofitable to the democratic party,
but will tend to keep drawn the lines
between regular and independent
democrats. This question should be
pproached as patriotic Tennesseans
nd not as factional party advocates
determined to gain a little advantage
at the risk of party harmony.

ExrRAvAeANcE.

En- NAV AIANOEs
| That the condition Of the treasury
of Tennessee is deplorable all will adj
nit. The state has simply been
spending more money than it made.
It's revenues were not equal to the
burdens imposed upon the treasury.
There is no charge, so far as we
know, Of graft or corruption.
The condition of the treasury is
not surprising. -Four years ago The
Herald warned the legislature of
what would inevitably come. The
appropriations in 1911 were grossly
extravagant and many of them clear
ly illegal and wholly unwarranted.
This paper charged then that an eff
fort was made by the hostile MAORI
ty in the legislature to make the ex-
penses so heavy that Hooper's adj
ministration would be discredited.
That charge was true. Partisan poll
tics Of the most despicable kind was
largely responsible for the enormous
increase in appropriations. We urged
Gov. Hooper to veto the appropria-
ton bill, advice which experience
shows he should have taken.
Two years ago the same effort was
plainly made in the general and spec
!ial appropriation bills. At this time
Gov. Hooper took our advice and
those measures were vetoed and later
passed over his veto. No doubt
some of the governors appointees
have been a bit extravagant in the
expenditure of the states funds and
it is doubtless also true that some of
the states departments could have
been run with fewer men on the pay
roll, but no man who knows the polit-
ical history of Tennessee for the past
four years can truthfully charge the
present deplorable condition of the
states finances wholly to Gov. Hoop
er. If the two legislatures which con-
Vened during his administrations had
been politically in sympathy with
him then such charge might be
made, but it does violence to truth
and every canon of fair play when
uttered under the circumstances of
his stormy four years tenure.
A discussion Of the causes for the
tate's financial condition, however,
Is now neither desirable or profita-
BILE. A condition confronts the legis-
ature. 1t must practice economy.
1t simply cannot increase salaries and
expenses without a corresponding in
crease in the tax rate. Regardless of
politics the members of the legisla-
ture should periodically set them
selves to the task Of solving most
vexatious problem.
In the meantime the efforts of oar
row politicians to get some sort of
by charging all the ex-
travagance Of the past four years to
Gov. Hooper is not calculated to
make for good feeling and peace in
the state. Many of the strongest !
and best democrats In the state sup.
ported Hooper. Without their assist |
.nce Rye could not have been elect
I'd. The present organ of the demo
cratic party at Nashville in 1910 en-
and earnestly support
ID Hooper. Two years later it gave
McMillin a character of support that
'eally helped Hooper. Now it is not
lair to the Tennesseean and will give
t just cause for offense, to charge
Hooper with things for which the
legislature was responsible.
