October 9th, 1916.
Hon. E. H. Dowdy,
Huntingdon, Tenn.
Dear Mr.. Dowdy:
If lived in the Eighth Congress
sional District of Tennessee | would
vote to send L. NJ. Rhodes to Congress
as sure as was able to get to the
polls November 7th.. and | have a
mighty good reason why | should do
so. Mr.. Rhodes is farmer and has
lived among farmers all his life. He
knows all about their trials and tribu-
lations, their ups and downs, joys
and sorrows, struggles, hopes, fears.
He sprang from sturdy pioneer stock.
He is bone Of their bone and flesh Of
their flesh. Instilled in every fibre Of
his being is their grit and pluck and
loyal love for honor and native land.
He, himself, is type of pioneer, for
he has fought many long year to
lead the farmers out Of the wilder
ness Of special privilege, monopoly
and greed into the land Of industrial
equity and justice.
No man in America has told more
truth to more farmers, in more places,
at more times. and with more power
than L. M. Rhodes.
know Mr.. Rhodes personally, and
have had opportunity to study him at
close range. He is full of vigor and
vim that comes of living the clean
life. Powerful in physical strength,
he has moral strength Of like kind.
Few men could throw him in a physi-
cal wrestle; there are none who could
break down his innate strength Of
character. He is type Of well.bal-
anced manhood, with strength Of
body and vigor of mind. both gov
erned by heart that always beats
strong and true for humanity. Be
fore a crowd he is a power. | heard
him speak to literal acres of people
and hold their wrapt attention for
nearly two hours. His brain is ver-
liable encyclopedia of facts and fig
ures. | have never seen a man with
such memory for statistics and such
ability to marshall them 10 a logical,
convincing manner.
| consider L. Nj. Rhodes the peer
of any man in public life today. He
would take rank upon the floor of the
House as an able friend of thes great
common people OF the Nation.
If the voters of the Eighth Dis
trict of Tennessee are awake to their
duty they will forget party ties, and
on November 7th., elect to Congress
Lucian NJ. Rhodes, man whom God
made bigger than mere partisan
and better than a politician.
Yours sincerely,

McNairy County independent. (Selmer, McNairy County, Tenn.) 1902-1969, 1916-10-27

Both sides now admit that the
presidential race will be a close
one. There are no land slides.
The straw votes taken show
Hughes has the lead by a small
majority. Several close states
are being raked as, with a fine
comb, as their results will de-
termine the race. The great
number of states conceded to
each side will not get much
windjamming. Missouri, Illinois,
Indiana. Ohio and Wisconsin
seem to be the Armagedon.

State Policy From
Republican Standpoint

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. %. Special l--
Two more weeks of rigid campaign
ing and the Republican party of
Tennessee will have completed the
most strenuous campaign in the history
Of the state. The result Of this work
remains to be seen, but from every
indication the ballots cast on Novem-
ber Z, will justify the effortput forth,
and every candidate on the state
ticket will come under the wire win
ner.
OVERALL Grows STRONGER
Col. John w. Overall is being heard
from every day by the opposition, and
his campaign is telling in Democratic
ranks as we'll as among Independents
and as he will carry the state solidly
among Republicans. his election seems.
assured. He is making strong race
among all classes, but especially does
he appeal to the business man regard
less Of party. AT Smithville Monday,
his old county seat, he was given
regular homecoming, Democrats par
ticipating alike with Republicans in
making up the large crowds that
swarmed into the little city all day
until the speaking started at l
o'clock. Col. 0veralPs terse business

Overall is telling day by day. and re-
ports are coming in now, that many
Regular Democrats are lining up with
him. in every section of the state.
At Smithville he was applauded vocif-
erously in the course of his speech,
and every indication is that he will
carry the county by a big majority. ,
TERRY ALTERNATELY A WINNER
Alternately is even considered
winner at Democratic headquarters,
where the state committee have long
since counted on losing their candi-
date for the state Railroad Commits
sion, Col. Enioe. Alternately Is a
good speaker, and has a splendid
voice, but he finds it unnecessary to
make many speeches, employing the
handshakiug method preferably. Reg
ular Democrats openly denounce the
democratic nominee and pledge their
support to Mr.. Alternately In every
town that he visits. At Franklin,
Columbia, Murfreesboro, and Law

True, the status of woman has changed
and is still changing. Women are nc
longer under the dominance of man. OF
that there can be no denial Some say
this has been the result of her own Efforts
others smile cynicaly and say that
woman is no longer what she was because
man, having tired of that type, allowed
her to evolve" This is a matter of
opinion But let the responsibility for
changed womanhood rest on whose head
II may, why should we assert anything?
1t has been charged, and perhaps jus
t1aby, that the majority of women who
smoke drink and swear do so because II
is smart" for them to do It, because they
want to register their indifference to
masculine opinion and criticism, not be.
cause they really enjoy alcohol. tobacco
or profanity. Primarily it is this fact
which makes those indulgences harmful
to women,
But swearing woman is analogous to
a man who uses perfume. Masculinty
may include swearing just as femininity
includes perfume, but emancipation
doesn't necessarily include masculinity.
no greater harm wrought by mans pro-
family than by woman's But, after ALL
two wrongs don't make one right.
If we must copy men-a wise woman.
however knows that she mustn't--ot
us ape their good qualities. There are
plenty of edifying attributes that are pc.
culiarly masculine.
Say what you will, men are not so catty
as women. All his life Dogenes looked
for an honest man. I have met many
types of women-women in all walks of
llfe-and though l have looked for one
who had nothing of cattiness in her
makeup, l have not yet succeeded in
finding one. We may be out.and.out cats
making no attempt to conceal our claws
or we may draw them into our fur subtly
and dangerously. 1t makes no difference.
We are n race cursed with a virulent
"felinity," of which we evidence no desire
to cure ourselves, IL 1t can be cured.
Let us not, then initiate the bad habits
of men. Let us rather copy the good
traits that seem peculiarly thers-ex-
tinction of cattiness first of all.

Disgusting" Lights

Nothing is quite so unattractive as an
ugly wall fixture. And, by the same token,
nothing so adds to the charm of room,
and incidentally to the charm of the rooms
occupant, as n cosy. rose-shaded light.
No matter how bare and "friendless"
looking the hall bedroom may be a tiny
rose-colored light will throw glamour
over it, making 1t seem positively artistic.
These shades take various colors and are
not of course, all rose-colored.
Parchment shades are smart. These are
fashioned like half-moons and are made to
slip over the ugly fixture in boudoir, den,
library or sitting room. Artistic designs in
dull tans gold, greens, blues and browns are
reminiscent of the thirteenth century parch-
ment illumination.
a boudoir shade may be had in rose, old
blue, yellow or green silk. 1t is shaped
like wide-open basket, with frills of gold
lace, puftings, ruffles and French flowers
galore. The hoop handle serves to attach
it to the fixture for when it is hung over
the light the basket forms the shade

Letters TO the Editor of the Womans Page
Address communications


Dear Miiss-Your championship of servant
girls is very well In Its way, but II seems to
y me you have tinotured your views with a great
deal OF sentimentalism.
1t may be true that hire women for our
Kitchens at the small sum of 50 or 81 week,
), although personally ! have never been able TO
yet one, even an UNFRAMED one for less than
board. ',y
Supnose you took boarder into your home,
even though you did quarter him IN the third
floor back. and gave him three good meals a
day. with little snacks in between times. II
be wanted them would you do 1t for less than
80 week7
OF course not. Add the servants wages to
this and you have $40 week. Many girl
with commercial education is receiving less
than that amount ann has herself to support.
1t may be very ennobling for Il woman to do
her own work. but the woman who has the
money 70 pay for n servant has the right to
say whether or not she wants to do II. And in
empl0ylng her help she ought not to have to pay
bandits wages In order to get good servant.
The busineHs man doesn't think that he ought
10 do HIS work. He employs stenographer. a
ever II Is he wants, and II he doesn't get the
kind OF man woman he wants he fires until
he does.
The housewife should have the same priyi-
lege There is too much sentiment In the rela-
tons between maid aud mistress rnthe' tran
too little. In ehamplonlng the maids think
you have overlooked the side OF the mistresses.
SPRING GARDEN STREET,
You are right in some of your conten-
tions--I might say in those which coin
eide with my views published on Tues
day and Saturday last. But let me ask

YOU. does the business man try to get n

does not He wouldn't want such man
if he4couId get him, he'd be afraid he wasn't
human.
Certainly housewife should have the
privileges of firing her help" whenever II
pleases her. only it's sad but true COM
mentary on the average housewives meth
DDS that the help" doesn't usually wait
to be fired. She jumps Hence the weep
ing and wailing and gnashng of teeth by
the mistresses.
If you hire an unframed servant at S5
a week and give her her board and lodg-
ing, your system is wrong. She should be
trained in some of the branches of domes-
ITCHY, at any rate for this price, But this
should not preclude her from human treat
ment by any means. Take squint at the
subject again and see IL you don't think the
housewives are chiefly to blame.
