THE President has his eagle eye fixed more
upon that nomination than upon the affairs
of State.
IF SAM SELLS expects to become czar, he
had better select some field other than that
of the Republican party of Tennessee.

TT is said the money remaining in the pike
road fund is simply being used to pay sala-
ries, but no construction work is being done.
DATRIOTISM and love of party will nerve

the cancerous growth that now threatens the
vitals Of the party.

But MCKELLAR was in favor of liquor and there
was no room for him.
IF A smal-sized bomb drops into the camp OF
L unholy alliance known as the SELLs-AUSTN-
L1TTLEToN combination, within the next week,
no one need be surprised.
WYE DO not believe the people will stand tor
w BEN w. HOOPER being made puppet OF
few designing schemers in order that they may
thrive at the pie counter.
WHEN the Republican party of tennessee IS
w asked to straddle whiskey barrel at the
behest of JESSE LITTLEToN, anybody ne rep
resents If lust won't do it.
ONLY the narrowest Of narrow minds could
~ could conceive, aid and abet the plan to
crucify man like BEN w. HOOPER upon the
altar of an ambition born of malice, greed and
envy.
THIS paper believes that the things tor the
betterment of the people, gained in the
past six years, are too precious to be sacrlhced
to the whims and caprices of designing polltl-
clans.
TT is the consensus of opinion that Hon. NEW
ELL SANDERS should succeed himself as
National Committeeman and we think the party
owes il to itself as well as him to see that this
is the result
WITH both Republican and Democratic par
w ties in favor of prohibition and law en-
forcement, there should be no backward step.
But such move is contemplated, and the Peo-
pie have their eyes on those who would prosti-
tute the peoples will for self-aggrandizement.

THAT speech by Mr.. RooT never reached the

IT'S cold day when the President won't trade

ecT AM not interested in any doctrine of free

WHEN next the people select President, it
w is a cinch they will never be beguiled
into accepting another anemic college professor.
THE silence of Democratic organs on RooT's
speech must be extremely painful to the
President. Perhaps he can explain it better
than they.
DULLING down the flag is Democratic ten
dency They tried in '6l, again in the
Hawaiian Islands and now they want to do it in

THE President hasn't changed his mind, this
L week, probably because nothing OF lmpor'
tance came to his attention.

THE President having knocked Mr.. BRYAN's

IF THE Republicans turn the organization over

White Pearl" As she entered the
scene and stood against black vel
vet background, she was indeed a
strangely luminous and beautiful fig

Our prophecy came true, for not
many days aftcrward the engage
ment was announced and then the
wedding followed, which was one
of the social events of the season.
At present the happy couple are out
IN California, making picture for
the Lasky Producing Company, and
the critics hint, ever so wisely, at a
new tenderness in Marie Doro's eyes
and a sweetness and charm which
are ineffably the afterglow of a
great love.
1t was with much interest that we
watched Marie Doro after she left
the stage to come to the Famous
Players studio during the taking of
her first picture, The Morals OF
Marcus" We had always thought
her beautiful on the stage, but She
was even more lustrous at close
range, with her great, somber eyes
through which surged dormant fires;
her white, shell-likc skin, with her
dark hair coiled simply at the nape
of her neck in keen contrast to the
flesh tones.
She has a merry little laugh and
seems more at home in pictures
than most stage stars do, who find
it necessary to get accustomed to
the lights and the lack of applause,
and miss the long-timed rehcarsals
before the actual producing of the
