SHOOT DOWN

Shoot Down the Red Flag
Kaiser's Orders.
THE wounded who lay in No
Mans Land were left to perish.
The French tried to rescue them
under the Red Cross flag but we
only sneered at them and shot
it to bits. The Red Cross flag
had lost all its value for US when
it was raised by the French.
Mistrust was nurtured among
us. We were told that the ene-
my misused the flag and that
we must shoot down the men
who bore it." Here is an ad-

Gen. Gates is concerned he will
not have to answer for a fac
tional political fight at a time
when the best that is in every
man in this country is needed in
helping to win the war.
1t is a great pity that other
candidates for Senator and Con-
gress cannot see fit to follow
the lead OF Gen. Gates and let
Tennessee be free of factional
political turmoil this year and
await a more suitable time.
These same places will be open
again in a short time and if the
government has been run for
all these years without them
surely it can stand until they
have another opportunity. and
maybe a time when political am
billions may be realized without
a hazardous risk being taken to
our Government.
We congratulate Gen. Gates in
his decision and feel that If he
will give the Government the
same active help which he would
have put into his campaign that
at a later date he will be well
repaid by the voters of this state.

Friday, June %, has been des-

oughly the necessity for individ-

DURKHAlTER FOR
STATE SENATE

We are authorized to announce
this week, the candidacy of D.
A. Burkhalter Of Mckenzie,
Tenn, who is seeking the demo
crat nomination for Senator from
Carroll and Henry counties. Mr..
Burkhalter is no stranger to
Henry county voters as he was
our floterial representative in
the legislature of 1907, when he
represented Carroll. Henry and
Weakley counties. In that body,
although it was his first term, he
was made chairman of the
House caucus, was appointed on
a number of important commit
tees and made a good record
which met the approval of the
district.
He is now seeking the higher
position. desiring to represent
the people of Carroll and Henry
counties in the upper branch of
the legislature and with his past
experience and the fact that he
prepared in the law and has lbeen
active in the practice in both
state and federal courts, he is
we'll qualified for the Office to
which he aspires.

draft age, volunteered. 1t is re-
called that when the first draft
