TIE WORD LOBBY"

This little word of four letters has
been the subject of infinite discussion.
Whether or not it shall be eliminated
from the marriage ceremony of the
Episcopal church of America promises
to be a live question at the coming
session of the general convention OF
the church. A commission OF fifteen
appointed to revise or suggest changes
IN the book of common prayer Is said
to be divided. It is to be hoped that
the commission will make no radical
changes in the book of common pray
er. For elegant and stately English,
for purity of expression, for beauty
of diction and for the solemn force
of its admonitions, it has never been
surpassed. There is nothing finer In
English literature than the Book OF
common prayer, save only the King
James version of the Bible.
However, upon the question OF the
little word "obey" in the marriage GER
emory these objections do not apply.
That word can be eliminated from the
marriage ritual without impairing that
beautiful ceremonial. And this should
be done. womsn's place in life has

THE COUNTY TICKET.

1t would have been difficult for the
democrats of Maury county to nave
selected, under all the conditions, a
more satisfactory ticket than that
nominated on Monday. The nominees
for the house are both men of integ-
ity and of clean lives. They have been
progressive, public spirited, active In
all good works. They have contrib
uted of their time and their substance
to the advancement of the public in
terests. All those things which make
for progress, for higher civilization,
will find in them true friends and
strong advocates.
Mr.. Russell will appeal with special
favor to the former independent demo
Gratis of the county. He has been with
and of them, though never often
sive to those who did not agree
with him. He was one OF the pioneer
temperance advocates of the county
and when he did not agree with his
party he voted with the opposition.
But he has been a lifelong democrat,
in thorough sympathy with the great
fundamentals of his party. In every
relation of life he has been tried and
proven true
On the ticket with Mr.. Russell is Mr..
English, who while always voting the
regular ticket of his party, is both in
practice and in theory an ardent tenn
perance advocate. He contributed
powerfully to the election OF Gov. Rye
upon a temperance platform and as
member of the last state convention
voted to endorse the Governors ad-
ministration of the temperance laws.
He is a man of clean life, active in
business and in the church. He, like
his colleague, is a man OF pleasing
personality and readily makes friends.
He has been valuable and effective
member of the county court and has
the experience in public affairs that
will assist very materially in equipplng
him for his duties as legislator.
With this sort of ticket the de-
mocracy of Maury county appeals with
confidence to the voters. 1t has no
apologies to offer any man, whether in
the stormy battles of the past he has
followed the regular" nominee or
stood with the independents. The
ticket will be winner. Russell and
English can be depended upon to rep
resent Maury county with fidelity and
ability.

A JUST DECISION.

Every fair-minded citizen, desiring
the substance and not the mere form
of Justice must agree that Attorney
General Thompson's opinion in the
Grove case is a strong and convincing
document. AS the states distinguished
chief law officer very we'll says JUS
tice Grove might have been guilty OF
a technical violation of the law, but it
would be a harsh injustice to apply
the drastic provisions Of the custer
act to him, when there is no evidence
that he wilfully or knowingly miscon-
Quoted himself in office. This Is the
contention that The Herald has made
from the start. In not a single case
against the members of the county
court of this county has there been
any evidence of intentional wrong do
ing, any sort of suspicion of graft or
of the use of office for private gain.
Nearly every citizen, however good his
intentions, sometimes technically VIC
lates the law. The intent has always
been an important consideration in all
criminal prosecutions. Surely where
there is no evidence of wrong intent
but on the contrary pretty conclusive
evidence of good intentions the harsh
and drastic provisions of the custer
act ought not to be invoked.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1916-09-29
LESSON OF PRIMARY.

1t is pretty plain from an analysis OF
the primary results Of last Saturday
that majority of the democrats, and
that means a large majority OF the
white voters of Maury county, have
not taken very seriously the charges
of graft and corruption so freely made
against the management of the coun-
tvs affairs. On the other hand the
result of the legislative primary proves
pretty conclusively that the people OF
the county are satisfied with the char
acter of government which they are
getting. The county court was COM
pletely indicated. The people have
taken the same view of the situation
that The Herald has repeatedly ex-
pressed.
AS a matter of fact, there has been
little if any ground for the frantic eff
forts which have been made to remove
certain officials and to create doubt
and suspicion in the minds of the peo-
pie. This county is one of the best
governed in the state 1t has a county
court whose personnel will compare
most favorably with that of any SEN
ate that has legislated in Tennessee
these twenty years. Its OFFICIALS are
generally high-minded, patriotic, pains
taking and capable citizens who are
doing their very best to serve the in
terests of all the people. The admin
istration of county affairs has been
progressive, intelligent and patriotic.
1t is exceedingly gratifying to The
Herald to record the approval which
an overwhelming majority of the peo-
pie have expressed of the administra,
ton of county affairs. This paper is
especially pleased with the complete
vindication given to Judge j. T. Nc
Knight and County Attorney w. G..
Whitthorne, who have been most I'M
Justly assailed. 1t never had any
! doubt of their standing with major
ity of the people. They got nothing
more nor less than earnest, active and
Jealous public servants deserve. It is
to be hoped that now we shall again
have period of peace and quiet, that
the results will be accepted in good
faith and no further effort will be
made to poison the minds of the pub
lie.
