I'VE WILL WIN"
SAYS HOLMAN
Chief CouDcil for Judge
Edgington
LOYAL TO HIS CLIENT
Brands as False Statements
and Rumors that Edglng-.
ton VIII Resign.

Memphis, Tenn, April &c." We
are going to win"
This was the emphatic statement
made Saturday morning by Harry
7. Holman, chief counsel for Judge
Jesse Edgington, defendant in the
impeachment proceedings before the
state senate in Nashville, after a
long conference with his client at
| the latter's home.
Furthermore" continued Mr..
Holman. please brand as false the
statements and rumors that Judge
Edgington is going to resign or
plead guilty to any kind Of charge.
He is going to do nothing Of the
kind. We are going to Nashville
Monday ready to fight this case to a
finish. Not only that, but as said
above, we are going to win it.
Judge Edgington is still sick
man and will not be able to 60 to
Nashville Monday, However, the
trial will proceed without his pres
ence. When he is able physically
to appear before the senate he will
do so. But he is in no condition to
90 now. He is still under the care
of q physician. The trial, though,
can 60 on without him."
Mr.. Holman and Judge H: c. True
Of Springfield, counsel for Judge
Edgington, called on the latter Sat
urday morning for a conference.
After the meeting, Judge True de-
parted at noon for Springfield to
spend the weekend with his family.
DR.. r. B. Underwood, physician of
Judge Edgington, stated Saturday
that his patient is still i'll and con-
fined to his room. There is a pos
sibility Of his going to Nashville
when the defense presents its side
Of the case, but that will depend on
how the judge takes care Of himself
in the meantime" he added. Spec

ON SAME PLATFORM
In Town Soid to be Heudquor-
ters for AntI-Prohlbition
Propaganda to Prove
Prohibition Is q
Failure.

The following appeared as a spec
ial from Chattanooga to the Mem
phis Commercial Appeal
Chattanooga, Tenn, April 3d.
Gov. Tom C. Rye and ex-Gov. Ben
W. Hooper spoke from the same
platform here this afternoon in a
meeting at the City Auditorium,
held under the auspices Of the local
Interchurch Federation and the Ten
nesse Anti-Saloon League. J. D.
McAlister, superintendent Of the
league, also made a speech solicit
ing financial support for that organ
ization and making q collection Of
funds from those present.
Ex-Gov. Hooper reviewed his
work for prohibition in Tennessee,
saying that on every occasion that
had presented itself since he had
stood for the abolition Of the liquor
traffic, and SO help me God, he ex-
claimed. i shall always be found
voting and working for prohibition
and any and all things that will
make it more effective" He s6e-
nounced a local newspaper. declar-
ing that the liquor traffic in Tennes-
see was not dead, and that If any
one believed it was, all he would
have to do would be to 90 to that
newspapers office. He said that the
reason the Anti-saloon Leagues
fight had been effective was because
that organization had adopted the
plan Of the liquor force IN the mat
ter of having no politics"
Gov. Rye, who followed, declared
that there were no longer any diff
ferences between Tennesseans on
the liquor question--that prohibi-
ton was a settled fact, and would
always be the law in Tennessee.
Mr. McAlister asserted that Chat
tanooga was the headquarters Of
propaganda, systematically manae-
ed to prove that prohibition was
failure in Tennessee, and read from
a magazine article SO show the falls

DUKE c. BOWERS
ON ADVERTISING
Memphis Grocer Pays
Tribute
IS STORES THERE
Some Day Says Mr.. Bowers
Everybody VIII be Con-
vinced That 1t Poys."

Duke Bowers, who runs thirty-fve
grocery stores in Memphis, says il
is hard for him to understand why
some people do not believe in ad.
verising. That Mr.. Bowers believes
in it is strongly evidenced by the
fact that he monopolizes about one
half the, space Of one issue of 6
Memphis paper Of last Tuesday
And it is not a small paper as pa
pers 60. 1t has fourteen pages ol
eight columns to the page. One en-.
tire section Of four pages is devoted
to matter supplied by Mr. Bowers
and the large section has a Bowers
lad" on every page except the first
including one full page devoted tc
current quotations Of grocery prices
at Mr.. Bowers thirty-five temples
of economy"
The space occupied by Mr., Bow
ers is not all devoted to groceries
for he is somewhat Of a philosopher
and he discusses some matter as. 9
side line to his commercial enter
prises. Among other things he tells
what he thinks about advertising
incidentally he remarks that his
advertisement which appeared in
the Memphis dailies last Tuesday
cost him about as much as it would
cost to open another store This, he
thinks, is a pretty good demonstra.
tion Of his faith in newspaper pub.
licity. i expect, though he con-
tinues, for the fruits Of this adver-
tising to yield so abundantly that il
won't cost me a penny"
Mr.. Bowers says he has spent
more for newspaper space since he
located in Memphis than he Is worth
but he believes if he had spent only
half as much for advertising he
would not have been worth half as
much as he is at .present. Some
business men argue, he says, that
they have succeeded without adver-
tising, and, hence cannot see any
use Of it. To which Mr.. Bowers ans.
wers, Yes, and the chances are
that if these same persons had been
constant advertisers the success
they would have made would have
been as far ahead Of their present
success as Memphis is ahead o.
Hopefeld, Ark
Some day, Mr.. Bowers thinks "ev
erybody will be convinced that il
pays to advertise To such as are
not convinced, the statements O
the Memphis grocer are worth con
sidering. They are based on the
experience Of a business man who
has thoroughly tested the publicity
method for getting business anC
who is SO well satisfied with the re-
suits that he is yearly increasing
his outlay for newspaper advertis
