For Mayor.

The Commercial this week takes
pleasure in presenting to its readers
IS a candidate for Mayor of the city
the name of Seid Waddell, citizen,
farmer, lawyer, finaneier. Mr.. Wad-
dell is not politician. although hon
oreG number of times by his
friends, voters, neighbors and his
party, He has represented the peo-
pie in both branches of the Tonnes
see Legislature and served with dis
tinetion, making one of the best,
ablest men obion County has ever
sent to Nashville. During his last
term he was honored with the
speakership of the Senate.
For long number of years he has
lived here and labored for the adj
vancement and upbuilding of Union
City. Being Mayor is not new
thing for him. Way back in 1882
he was Mayor of this burg, and he
made good. He was first elected
Mayor in 1882 by the Board of AL
dermen to succeed Mayor ]. M.
Moore, resigned. He was reelected
by the people four successive times,
making his term of Office extending
over ten years. During his term the
water and light plant was put in
operation, the courthouse built, the
schools improved, and other i'm
provements made in sidewalks on the
principal streets. The financial con-
dition of the city raised from a dis
count basis to cash basis; the city
taxation at no time exceeding $1.25
on the 500 assessment value.
During his term of office Mr.. Wad
dell had the benefit of most excel
lent and patriotic men whose sole
aim was to increase the progress of
the town and who gave its business
affairs their united support. Such
men as H. Dietzel, Ben Bransford,
Harry Robinson and others of equal
worth, and he gives them credit in
large measure for whatever sue
cess may have attended his admins
tration of city affairs. 1t is said
that he never had a Board of Alder
men that was in any way divided to
the point of being fractional.
K AS a citizen he is always found on
the right side of every moral ques-
ton, is courageous, progressive, en-
terprising, a Christian gentleman of
the highest type. If elected he will
make a very Acceptable, capable,
painstaking, conservative official

For Sheriff.

Mr.. Jim Hickman announces in
this paper as a candidate for Sheriff
of Obion County. Mr.. Hickman
made the race two years ago with a
very fiattering vote. He is a native
citizen of the county, resident OF
Number Twelve, farmer, branch
of the family which furnished one of
the best sheriffs the county ever
had. He has served as deputy for a
number of years and made an eff
cient officer. Jim Hickman is a
clever gentleman and is recognized
for his worth everywhere. He an
nounces subject to the action of the
Democratic party in the primary
Nov. 20. We are pleased to present
his name to our readers. Mr.. Hick-
man asks The Commercial to say to
the voters that it will be almost i'm
possible for him in the short time
before the election to see everybody,
but he is in the race and on the job
every day and will appreciate your
vote whether he sees you or not.

Prohibition.

There is no sentimental gush about
our view of Prohibition, but when
the Commercial Appeal speaks of the
fool Prohibition statutes as some
thing not worth the paper they are
written on, that paper is making
some more thoughtless remarks I'M
worthy of it's columns about in line
with its jingoism a few weeks ago
When such stuff, if entertained for
a minute by the Administration
might have plunged us into the yor-
tex of war. Perhaps Memphis has
not profited much with Prohibition;
perhaps one or two others of the big
cities. But any man with a grain
.of sense knows that Union City is a
different town every way in the
world under the Prohibition laws.
1t is better financially, commercially,
spiritually-every way under Heav-
en-. So are many other good size
towns in the State. The fool thing
is the saloon, with it's adjuncts of
gambling and prostitution, The sa-
loon is a place where gentlemen"
can lounge around at night in de-
bauch and go home to their wives
and mothers in a 'souse." The sa-
loon is place where crime and vice
and murder breed and mature. The
saloon is not therefore the subject
of popular will, but a crime and
nuisance to be suppressed just like
any other criminal institution.
Opposition to the saloon is not by
pious hypocrites alone but by man
size" men and healthy women, who
believe in suppressing crime with
Statewide or any other kind of Pro-
hibition. If men want to drink let
them get a bottle and take it home.
1t will not be half so bad. If whisky
is to be used let a Christian nation
such as ours is said to be refuse it
with the sanction of Government.
Let the saloon be an outlaw and then
we can be recognized as a Christian
nation. ...
Men writing in standard papers
like the Commercial Appeal uphold
ing the saloon is the thing that /
keeps us back-not fool Prohibi- |
lion laws

Mr.. Bryan Speaks.

Mr. William j. Bryan's congratu
llations to President Wilson on the
diplomatic triumph of generation
are still strangely delayed. but while
nothing has been heard from the
Peerless directly bearing on the
event of the day, indirectly he has
expressed himself.
Mr.. Bryan took occasion in Chi
cago Tuesday to definitely state that
while he was in politices he would
not accept office at this time or in
the near future, signifying his re-
nunciation of any designs he may
have had on the Presidency in 1915.
Have you any plans for the
Presidency" Mr.. Bryan was asked,
and the news STORY" goes on to re-
port him as follows:
81 want it understood, replied
the former Secretary of State, that
have no plans now or for the
future to at any time become can
didate for any office. l have no po-
litieal expectations whatever.
1.-THE work which | have mapped
out for my remaining years does not
include the occupying of any po-
litical position. This answer covers
every contingency and ought to be
satisfactory to all classes except one.
There is one class in this country
that has insisted that l should prom
Use never under any circumstances
to be candidate for anything.
II have never felt it necessary to
crafty this class by making prom
Use of that kind, and do not think
it necessary to make that kind of a
promise now"
That is fair enough. Something
might possibly happen in the dis
tant future to cause the American
people to forget that Mr.. Bryan had
deserted the President in the most
crucial moment of the country's his
tory in half a century and give en-
couragement to potential foreign
enemy and his monstrous preten-
sions, but it is sufficient that Mr..
Bryan realizes that for the present
at least he has been removed from
the Presidential running.-Knox-

Attorney HAYES.

Mr.. Morris Halves is now a full
Pledged attorney at law, having sue
cessfully passed all the State ex-
aminations. He was admitted to the
bar by Judge Joseph E. Jones last
Monday at the opening of September

brightest young men ever reared in
Union City; possesses a quick, alert
mind, splendid memory and has
been a good student and hard work
er. Friends here think they see in
him the making of a splendid lawyer.
The Commercial wishes for him
every success and feels sure he will
get there" He is honest, honor
able, courteous and reliable. These
qualities and capabilities always

The Fair.

The county fair opens here next
week. The officers and directors feel
they have some reason to believe
that the people of Obion County and
adjacent country appreciate their
efforts in the maintenance of a coun-
ty fair of unusual character and eX-
cellence. The greatest success of all
was the meeting here two years ago,
when all criticism practically gave
way under the fact that we had one
of the best county fairs ever held
the largest attendance here ever
known at a county fair in Obion
County 1t was the greatest horse
show ever seen here. 1t was the
greatest effort in produce, domestic,
fine arts, and culinary displays ever
beheld here. 1t was the greatest
special feature fair of all our fairs.
The amusement feature was the
largest, and in every way it was the
paragon of county fairs.
This year an effort is being made
for another fine fair, and we con-
graduate the organization of the
success so far. An invitation has
been extended to the United States
Senators and candidates for the Sen
ate, Hons. ]. K. Shields, Luke Lea,
NJ Il
Mcclellan and Congressman Finis 7.
Garrett, to be with us on Thursday,
Sept. 16, and some of these distin
pushed gentlemen have assured us
that they will be here.
The special feature department
will include the appearance of Mrs,
j. T. Landry, with her celebrated
racing ostrich, Bitten, which will
appear on the track every day of the
four days in a match race with a1
Arabian horse. This is novelty
indeed and will be worth coming
miles to see Mrs. Landry will be
here in person to conduct the races
and she VIII bring with her strlng
of PAGERS and trotters for the track.
The stables will include some of
the best trotters and PAGERS in the
circuits. The entries SO far guar
antee as good cards or better and as
large a number as we had two years |
ago. A list of these horses will be
seen elsewhere.
Come and bring the folks to the
fair. If you fail to bring basket
the Methodist ladies will serve You
with a good homemade dinner every
dav. and the Christian Church ladies |
on Thursday and Friday.
Come and join us in a general re-
union at the fair You can help US
while treating yourself to day of
and pleasure.

At the present writing, says an
exchange, we have no desire to hurl
ourselves into Abraham's bosom, but
if we ever do, we wouldn't lean
against double-barrel shot gun and
pull the trigger, as many do. Meth
er would we chop our head off with
an amateur guillotine, eat square
meal of rough on rats, blow out the
gas, drink concentrated lye, sit down
on the lap of buzz-saw, smoke a
cigarette, or call a Kentuckian a
liar or poor judge of whiskey We
would simply get out an edition of
our paper in which we would strive
to the very best of our ability to
print the plain, square-toed truth
about people, as we understand it,
