The Colonel's "Heroic" Mood.
Speaking from the depths of his lonely and
romantic heart, Colonel Roosevelt declares:

ut would be mistake to nominate me-
unless the country has in its mood something
of the heroic"
If the Colonel had omitted his conditional
clause, could credit him with the wisest saying
of his career, and the most patriotic But with his
wonted wordiness he befuddles what might have
been seasonabIe and self-evident truth. Heroic
Just what does the Colonel mean? From his
record and temperament we should infer that he
means the blaze of red calcium the boom of base
drums and the firing of horse pistols. He means
bristling hair and bullying eyes, loud mouths and
hot heads, the blood and thunder of jingosm the
rip and rant of demagogism---all keeping time to
the Big Stick.
If the Colonels dream of a third term or of
nomination depends on that sort of mood in the
American people, he is destined to continued dis
appointment. If that is his standard of heroism.
the country is not at all heroic There never was
a time when this nation was more thoughtful of
duty and honor or more ready in spirit to brave
whatever peril the worlds couded stage may
bring But because of the very dangers that
threaten. and the sacrifices that may be required,
there never was time when the nation more
self-contained. This is no hour for political he
roles 1t is no hour for Rooseveltism.
But we ought to be tolerant of the ColoneIs
high-strung mood. One who has known the fever
ish joys of hunting elephants and wart hogs and
discovering Rivers of Doubt naturally regards the
sober craftsmanship of the Wilson administration
with a disdain such as Don Quixote felt for his
contemporaries in peaceful La Mancha. To the
Colonels manner of thinking, courage must be for
ever grinding its teeth, leadership must be noisiy
staggering herosm must be hysterical. He can
not understand how anyone worthy of seat in
the White House can let the months and years slip
by without calling somebody liar. Picturing
himself as another Hamlet, he cries:
The time is out of joint, cursed spite,
That 1 was never born to set it right.
With all his disdain, however, of the unheroic
temper of the day, the Colonel seems to cherish
hope that the nation yet may become worthy OF
him. He will not hide his light under busheI
deprive his fellow countrymen of his heroic ebulli
lions. He will continue berating the President
and denouncing the Governments foreign policies,
even in this crucial season, in order that may
know what good citizenship and loyal Americanism
like. He will keep his eye on the Republican
convention and trust that the politicians whom he
damned as scoundreIs and thieves in 1912 may
recognize professional hero in 1915.

In many counties of the state candi-
dates are announcing for the state SEN
ate and house of representative in the
next legislature. In this county Mr..
McRee who represented the county in
the last General Assembly will be
candidate to succeed himself. So far
no opposing candidate has announced
his intention Of running, According to
an old custom in force since the coun.
ties of Haywood and Fayette were
Joined into senatorial district, it is
Haywood's time to furnish the senator.
Fayette county will likely take no part
in nominating a candidate, but will
support the one named by that county.
In the floterial matter it is very differ
ent, Fayette county and Shelby to-
gether elect q fioaterial representative
in the General Assembly. In the days
before Crump came into power in
Shelby county and the city of Memphis
Fayette was allowed in alternate terms
to name this fioterial representative,
But since the Crump regime began not
once has Fayette county man been al
lowed look-in at the floterial toga.
For four or five terms Shelby county
has selected the foterial representa-
tive just like she selected her own
direct representatives, never even 60
ing thru the form Of calling a fioterial
convention. The foterial committee
has not had meeting in years, for all
was dictated by Crump, and what was
the use? We do not know a man in
Fayette county who wants to be elect
ed fioater, we do not know one who
would accept the place, but we do know
that Fayette county should be permit
ted to name Fayette county man for
the place and that in spirit of fairness
Shelby county should accord him a I'M
animous support. This county should
have two representatives in the next
General Assembly, direct representa-
tive and a floterial representative.
while the senator will come from Hay
wood.

Feed for the farm stock of Fayette
county this year is much more plentiful
than it was last year and yet there are
farmers who have not enough to feed
thru crop season. The oats planted last
fall will come in early and will help
farmers who have them, and it is about
time to begin preparation for sowing
spring oats, and they will ripen in time
to help. Another grain not fully APP
preciated is theEExtra Early Adams
corn, planted:mostly for. roasting ears.
Planted early it can be brought to
roasting ear stage by early June, last
year June 10 we began feeding it, and
from that date on fed it daily. Stock
thrived on it and did good work. It is
a small corn, but can be planted thick
in the drill and so makes good yield
per acre, sand earlier than any other corn
In the world. If scarce of grain for
feeding try an acre or more of Extra
Early Adams corn planted very early.

The census report on cotton ginning
shows ginned in Fayette county up to
January 10th this season 2O,864 bales
against %, 1853 to the same date last
year. But it must be borne in mind
that the cash receipts for the crop re-
Gently harvested was more than double
the cash receipts for the crop of one
year ago. And this is very important
just at this time when preparations for
planting another crop are beginning in
this section. 1t is the history of cotton
that the small crop has brought the
growers more money than has the large
crop,

tax shall be spent by the state highway
commissioners. This should be changed
and it should go into the road fund of
the county in which it is collected and
spent by the road authorities of the
counties who are as competent to spend
it as commission at Nashville who
never saw a road in the county. The
money raised from hunters license
goes to the department of game, fish
and forestry at Nashville. 1t was first
said this fund went to the public school
fund of the county in which it was paid,
but this was found to be an error,
That is where it should 60 and the law
should be amended. The Cookeville
school steal should be remedied by
aboIishing the school there in so far as
the state is concerned. There is no
more reason why the state should be
asked to support Cookeville's school
than Somerville's school. This money
was taken from the state high school
fund and every high school in the state
suffered a loss of money because of the
steal. These and other matters are of
much interest to the people of the
county and a representative should
know the views of his constituents be-
fore being elected.

II a J newspaper published every
article sent it by the different depart
ments of state and national govern
ments, the different charitable and
benevolent organizations, local, state
and national, the different railroads,
business organizations, local churches,
societies, etc., it would make a volume
of each issue that few would have time
to read and fewer would care to read.
Never day goes by that newspapers
are not asked to publish some of these
things. Most people take it as a mat
ter of course and do not even give
one thought Of thanks or appreciation.
Each column Of type that a country
newspaper has set costs a mans time

at least a part of them, without charge,
others receive half regular pay for
them, and still others charge full rate
for them. But those that put them
in free should certainly be made to feel
that they are appreciated.

The county court clerk Of this county
C. w. Crawford, informs The Falcon
that there are still a great many au-
tomobile owners in the county who have
not paid their automobile tax for the
year 1916. 1t is true automobiles are
not being used much now for the reason
that continuous rains have made the
roads too muddy for them. But the
tax is due the first Of the year and
should be paid promptly to the clerk.
He forwards the fee and name to the
secretary of state at Nashville and q
new number is sent for the year, fur
nished by the state. The money raised
from this tax is to be spent by the
state highway commissioners in the
county in which it was paid, being used
for building public roads.

RAZEE HERE
DURING ELK'S CONVENTION

Rush Race, known from coast to
coast because Of his remarkable
shooting ability, will during the Elks
convention here on the 10th and 18th
June, give the sportsmen present the
| opportunity of seeing him in action.
Some of the feats performed by Mr..
Race are nothing short of marve-
lous and stamp him unquestionably as
the peer of all fancy shooters.
Mr.. Race throws all his W tar
gets. It is impossible on this ac-
count for him to completely regain
his poise before firing.
At least 20 new and original feats
that Mr.. Race WELL perform are be-
ing attempted by no other shooter.
He shoots flying targets with gun
upside down, doubles, hits n target
with gun upside down, turns gun over
and hits n with gun right side up,
then oubles with gun upside down.
Another difficult stunt that he pulls
off is ejecting two empty shells one
following the other. Both are in
the air at the same time and both
are hit before they reach the ground.
Using two "A Calibre revolcers MI.
Race will hit two targets placed
about 20 feet apart and rs feet away.
He will shoot both r~evolvers upside
down simultaneously.
With the same revolver he will
split cards held edgewise, sighting his
targets in a mirror. He will also do
some double mirror shooting at
swinging targets, and the most diff
ficult of all mirror shots-shooting
one gun upside down, one right side
up, sighting both with one mirror and
breaking two targets simultaneously.
Mr.. Race is truly the worlds
champion fancy shooter and his ex-
hibition here will be a rare treat to
lovers of this sport.
