TABLES ARE TURNED

While the democrats were in
power, republicans dinned the
country's ears with criticism and
denunciation. Every act and every
omission was wrong. Nothing was
right. The war was muddled;
peace was delayed; reconstruction
was impossible. The cure was a
republican congress, with brilliant
statesmen and economists like
Senators Lodge and Penrose and
Representatives Gillett and Mon
dell as its leaders.
Three months of republican re-
sponsibility and control has not
convinced the people that the
Change was for the better. Indeed,
there is not a problem which has
not become more acute; not a
popular demand that has not re-
NAMED unfultilled in this fourth
Of a year of republican account.
ability for legislation.
At the worst, the democratic
congress preceding the one now in
session was charged with doing its
work poorly. But it acted. The
present republican congress has
done next to nothing land done it
very badly. If the democrats
made mistakes it was because they
made efforts. Against the republi-
cans is fairly chargeable the great
est and costliest of all mistakes
failure to try.

"CHICKEN FEED"

Republican inability or unwi'-
lingness to arise to a great emer-
gency was never more brazenly
confessed than in a recent debate
in congress when Representative
Mann, Of Illinois, characterized

O[NAIUK 0HIELDS
OPPOSED TO TREATY
His Position is Not Very Pleasing
to the Democrats of
Tennessee

Senator John X. Shields, senior
member of the United States SEN
ate from Tennessee, is reported to
have given out an interview in
which he declared himself opposed
to the league of nations, and left
the impression, if he did not say
so in SO many words, that he would
not support President Wilson in
ratifying the peace treaty and
league of nations.
The declaration of the senator
created quite sensation among
leading democrats Of the state who
are supporting the president, and
feel that in failing to do the same,
Senator Shields will not represent
the democrats of Tennessee.
In Sundays Commercial Appeal
appeared a communication from
Matt N. Whitaker. former attor-
ney.general of the Chattanooga
district, in which Senator Shields
is accused of giving aid and COM
fort to Senator Lodge, in the lat.
ter's effort to discredit the work of
President Wilson in the interest of
world humanity.
Gen. Whitaker charges that the
senior senator is misrepresenting
80 per cent of the people of Ten
nessee in opposing the peace treaty
and covenant, and demands that
the public be assured before a vote
is taken in the senate of ratifica-
tiol.

GENERAL PALMER
MAY Be CANDIDATE
There is Much Speculation as
to the Democratic Pesi-
dental Candidate

It is believed 10 Washington,
where it sea rs that politics is til
central thought, that Attorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer, stands
a mighty good chance to be the
next democratic nominee for pres
ident. 1t is insisted ID political
circles that if he succeeds in car
rying forward successfully his
campaign for lowering the cost of
living he will have practically an
uDobstructed path to the demo-
cratic nomination for president,
He is unquestionably one of the
strongest men in the democratic
party.
President Wilson's name in this
connection is frequently men,
toned, and should the republi-
can senate fail to ratify the
peace treaty, and should repu-
date the league Of nations, he
might seek a third nomination
and make ratification of the league
Of nations the overshadowing issue
of the campaign. But the treaty
and league of nations will be rati-
fed, and, in that event, the presi-
dent will hardly want third term.
There is some talk of Mr.. Me-
Adoo for the nomination. Few
men in the United States. of either
party, have developed the capacity
for constructive work in a great
crisis as Mr.. McAdoo did during
the time he served as an executive
officer. His accomplishments were
looked upon with amazement and
admiration by the entire country.
He has ability and capacity to
make a great president, and his
name may occupy prominent po.
sition in the nominating conven-
ton.
Carroll County democrat. (Huntingdon, Tenn.) 188?-1971, 1919-08-29
TAFT'S WORK

When the senate finally ratifes
the peace treaty, a thankful nation
and a grateful world will not for
get the part played by the league
to enforce peace, or by its presi-
dent, William Howard Taft, whose
untiring endeayors and clear logic
have COMPOUNDED the petty politi-
clans who, in the words of George
w. Wickersham, would deprive
the world of the great hope and
radiant promise of a world allied
for the preservation of peace. "
Next TO President Wilson, it is
doubtful if any American has had
as much influence as has Mr.. Taft in
bringing the senate to terms and
certainly no man, not even Presi-
dent Wilson, has stated the issues
SO clearly to both the national
congress and the people at large. -

IMPORTANT MEETING

The West Tennessee Farmers
Institute which will convene at the
Experiment Station Farm, Septem-
Der 2. for three-days' session, is
the largest and most important
meeting of farmers in this section
of the state.
Previous to last year delegates
were named by the several county
institutes, but this plan has been
abandoned, because it was felt
that the district institute should
interest all farmers. Therefore,
everyone is urged to attend.
There will be discussions of
cropping, lining, livestock market,
ing, with reports of cooperating
selling associations. A leading
feature will be the discussion of
the tenant systems in practice in
West Tennessee, BY farm owners,
renters and bankers. In addition
there will be an auction sale Of
purebred Percheron horses, the
first offerings from the station stud.
The women's program has been
especially prepared to interest all
who take part in the home life of
the farm. 1t IS hoped that every
county west Of the Tennessee river
will be represented by big dele
