the following telegram to Representa-.

Hon. L. P. Padgett, M. c. Wash.

Let's don't allow fixed maximum on
what our people have and leave iron
and lumber and fertilizer and coal un.
restricted. This administration was
in way elected by the agriculturists
of the South and West, and they
should be treated fairly in all matters
pertaining to our national life. Why
should wheat be less than two dollars
per bushel when Birmingham iron is
fifty dollars per ton? How can the
farmers hold labor when the factories
are paying twice as much as the farm
ers receive? Why should the grain
of this country be furnished to the
allies at a fixed maximum when every
thing else is advancing day by day as
the demand increases?

THE woMEN's CHANCE.

This nation needs the services OF
every woman as well as every man.
The women have the same opportuni-
ty for service that is given to the men.
They have it in Maury county. The
success OF the campaign inaugurated
this week in behalf Of the Red Cross
Az going to depend largely upon the
women. They subscribed, many or
them, literally last week, but SO far
the women mere have not BEEN very
active in war measures. They are not
yet aroused to the tremendous task
that confronts the nation. Many Of
them are apathetic. To defeat the foe
that has challenged our democracy is
going to require the whole-hearted
sacrifice and devotion of every woman
and every man in the nation. It is not
.child's play, but the most serious bust
ness upon which a free people have
ever embarked.
The women of this county, from
Hampshire to Rally Hill, from Kinder
hook to Fountain Creek, should organ
ize rs a unit for the Red Cross.
They should personally canvass their
neighborhoods. Every woman in the
county should do her "bit" for this
ccmpaign and for every other activity
of the government. Not only that but
they should encourage the boys to join
the army, to enlist in the navy. Their
attitude toward the government in this
crisis should be one of whole-hearted
devotion, of the most self-sacrifclng
loyalty. II this war Is not won, II
victory does not crown the efforts OF
those who are giving all for world
wide democracy, whs tever the women
possess after the war will be worth
less. All that our civilization counts
worth while has been challenged. The
women have as much, even more,
1udging from the treatment accorded
the women of France and Belgium at
stake in this war than the men. Sure
~ the women Of Maury county will
willingly, devotedly and gladly make
every possible sacrifice for the holy
cause upon which our devoted nation
has enlisted.

lNoPPoRTUNE TIME.

The Sun concurs in the opinion ex.
pressed by,.the Tennessee Press Asso'
citation last week in the adoption OF
an address by James |. Finney, the
brilliant editor Of The Columbia Her
aid, In which it was declared that the
national war crisis makes this year
an inopportune time for holding a
state constitutional convention. Not
withstanding the many good reasons
that have been advanced for revising
the organic laws of the state. the ap-
palling fact is before Us that We are
Mt war and that every activity OF all
citizens should be idre cted toward the
successful elimination of the war so
that even the constitutional rights we
now have win be safe.
without a victory for democracy,
constitutions will become scraps OF
paper" to be trod upon by the feet OF
the scientifically barbarous German
emperor. Men of affairs in this time
of stress are devoting their best eff
forts to the Rsd Cross, the Army Y.
m. C. A., government finance and the
myriad other causes that have been
forced upon them by the war situation.
Thousands of the young men or the
state are awaiting with patriotic FER
yor a call to the colors under the Sc
aective draft, while many others are
volunteering for service in the ranks
of the different branches OF the army
and navy. Their minds are not upon
satte issues and their hearts are filled
sit hthe great passion of a struggle
that encompasses the world.
With the world afire it is no time
TO be dealing with the matter OF con-
stitution making or anything else that
can be postponed with comparatively
little injury. Granting the need OF
revised constitution, we yet know that
the failure to call the constitutional
convention last year did not instantly
ruin the state and that a refuasl 20 do
so This year will not be instantaneous
ly reuinous. =,
But to spend much time in arguing
against the constitutional convention
this year would be to belly our conten
ton that we have no time for its con
sideration. Even as our thoughts are
upon the great world problems OF the
day, which keeps US from the proper
consideration of reasons for holding
the constitution. so are we too deeply
concerned with those problems tc
.sbend words in opposition to it. The
attitude of Tennesseans this year to
ward the question of a constitutional
convention is one of indifference, and
this year. for one. will, devote ltseii
