Mr.. Olney is one of a steadily in

Olney says: f.,-

There is something very strange
about Candidate Hughes vociferous
condemnation of President Wilson
for the latter's alleged lenient atti-
tude in settlement of German inter
national questions, when it is known
that out of 2S daily and 23S weekly
German Democratic newspapers that
are published in this country, not
one supports Mr.. Wilson's candida
cy-at least this is the boast of the
Lincoln Freie Presse. If Hughes is
so anxious that our country show

that the German press is so solidly

more urgent issue dnring the next
four years than it has ever been
been before. 1t will demand at
tention in Congress. 1t will loud
ly demand attention when plat
forms are made in 1920. The
Democratic party is the dominant
party. Democratic territory is
prohibition territory. For the
first time in it's history, the domi-
nant party owes nothing to the
"wet" north. For the first time in
it's history the dominant party
owes vastly more to the "dry" terri
tory than it does to the "wet" terri
tory. Even if the Democratic par
ty should seek it, the way Of escape
from advocating prohibition would
not be easy to find.
Even in 1920 prohibition as a
national issue may not find it's way
into the Democratic platform. To
make it a national party issue
might not be wise. But, almost
inevitably the Democratic party
the dominant and still the growing
party-will become the party Of
prohibition.
A liauorless America is on it's
way, and it will be no great while
in arriving. 1t may come in 1920,
Conceivably, it may come even be-
fore that. But, it any event, it
will arrive while many of those
who have so faithfully pioneered
for it are still alive to see it's bless
ings in operation. -Tennessean.

who has been Chief Justice of the
Supreme Bench Of Tennessee for
several years, so impresses Mid
die Tennessee editor with his de-
cisions as to bring forth aAfine
tribute to the West Tennessee
Ejurist.
Judge Neil is we'll known for his
studious habits. He had rather
work all day and night in getting
at the tap root Of the facts and law
in complicated case than to en-
gage himself in any other manner.
and when the opinion is handed
down in the case it is regarded as
final indeed.
The Lebanon Banner pays him
the following compliment, which
is appreciated here in West Ten
nessee:
One Of the most painstaking,
most accurate and most thoroughly
painstaking honest officers of the
State of Tennessee today is the
Hon. NJ. M. Neil, Chief j ustice Of
the Supreme Court. A profound
lawyer, conscientious Christian
gentleman, a great big man who
fills well great big place, While
presiding over the Impeachment
Court, Judge Neil SO favorably
impressed the members Of the
General Assembly, they are ex-
travagant with their compliments
of him. In the opinion of Judge
Neil in the Morgan case from this
county, wherein the Supreme Court
reversed the Court Of Civil Ap-
peals, the honest accuracy of q
great judicial mind lie made mani
fest. This opinion hugs to the
truth of the facts in detail from
beginning to end just like one Of
the railroad company trains sticks
to the track from Nashville to Har-
riman. So do his other,decisions.

PROHIBITION STATES.

Six States eliminated the saloon
in the election of last Tuesday.
-Four of them put whisky out on a
straight appeal to the voters.
These are Michigan, Nebraska,
South Dakota and New Mexico.
Two Florida and Utah elected
Governors aud General Assemblies
pledged to prohibition laws.
The addition Of these six States
makes total of twenty-six "dry"
6tntes. Numerically, that is more
than half Of the United States.
Territorially it is more than two
thirds Of the United States, for
many Of the "dry" States are terri
&orially large. So far as represen-
&ation in Congress goes, the twen-
ty.six dry States do not constitute
= msjority, but they approach it
very closely and victory is neces-
ssry in only few more States to
make the nation preponderantly
u rS'dry."
The States that had already
eliminated whisky are: Maine,
Kansas, West Virginia, Virginia,
North Carolina, South Caroline,
Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee,
Alabama, Arkansas, North Dakota,
Oklahoma, Montana, Idaho, Colo
rado, Arizona, Oregon and Wash
'inRton.

tory comedies pretty closely with

M Ia the election Of Tuesday.

South, not only ip the Democratic
column but III the prohibition col
nmn. There are, to be sure, q few
Western States that went Demo-
cratic in which the saloon still
l1iourishes, and there are few
Western States already "dry" that
went Republican. Throughout the
rest az the country there are few
SS'dry" Republican States and few
vet Democratic States. But,
