the Republican slush fund
and on Thursday of last week, the
date set for him to make good" he
did SO by quoting the Republicans
W publications. Gov. Cox put his
charge in the shape of a conspiracy
to buy the presidency" and in his rev.
Citations showed specifically that an
aggregate sum Of So, lac, 900 had been
levied on 81 cities in twenty-seven
states-New York leading with ST.
0O0, 900. Cox not only did this but
charged that Senator Harding, the
Republican nominee was acquainted
with the details and that the levy had
the approval Of Chairman Will Hays.
From issues Of the campaign bulletin,
Governor Cox quoted many reports
from Republican workers showing
they had gone lover the top" and in
excess to the alleged quotas. He took
the statement Of Chairman Hays that
5000. 900 had been raised. Republi-
cans who a not deny the levying Of
this enormous campaign fund, will
say in reply that the Democrats
would do the same thing if they
could-and they might do so, but the
is that when it was exposed that
Big Business" had put up in advance
a million and a quarter dollars for
General Wood, that was not the end
Of it; that the same source will fur
nish money for Senator Harding just
as readily as for General Wood.
When Big Business puts US a cent for
the election Of a president, it will get
back a dollar-in legislation which
cold cash to their Golfers.

When we speak of honoring return
ed soldiers from the world war, we
mean, the reputable men who volun-
teered or were taken in the draft
dragnet, and with the knowledge that
all sorts of of bad characters within
the draft age were forced into the
service. At Memphis, Claud Wills,
a former soldier, has been identified
as the mar with the gun in the holdup
of a man who was robbed of $4,000
of money belonging to the Shelby
Biscuit Company.

1t is simply surprising the number
of "goodsmen" who attach no impor-
lance to the primary obligation. We
r like old mar Jim Smith, a noted
Republican, Of Hooker's bend, when
his brother-in-law, Bud Watson, "a
Democracy was a candidate for office.
Some Of them said "Mr. Smith, if you
don't get out and do something, Bud
will be beat" to which Mr.. Smith re-
piled. But, see here, I never voted for
a Democrat in my life" "0h," said
the friends, ''but this is in the family
and different"-so old man Jim, went
out to electioneer for Bud and to the
first mar he met, he said "Se here;
vote for Bud if you can; but IL he was
not a brother-in-law I'd see him in
hell before I'd vote for him."

HOUSE HAS A QUORUM.

Notwithstanding female suffrage
advocates claim ratification was ac-
complished by the Tennessee legisla-
ture, the House had a quorum Tues
day afternoon and the majority Of the
quorum voted to o in the
Senate resolution proposing ratifica-
ton. The matter will rest in uncer-
tainty until the Supreme court of the
United States passes on the constitu-
tionality of the action in Tennessee
when on vote of so to AZ the House
passed the ratification resolution. 1t
is very likely that the regular ses-
sion of the General Assembly next
January will take action on the mat
ter before the opinion of the Supreme
court is handed down.
Regardless Of all else there is a
host of women in the South who are
not going to vote.

The Nashville Banner seems to be
contributing to the disaffection
against Governor Roberts because he
disregarded the constitution in con-
nection with the suffrage amendment.
The Banner ought to be ashamed of
itself for bringing such a charge
against the governor after standing
for his nomination when it knew
that he had violated the constitution
in eighteen instances, in the appoint
ment of seventeen members of the
legislature to lucrative offices and in
removing the Supreme court from
Jackson.

We failed to make recent mention
that "0ld Man Stahlman" of the
Nashville Banner, had taken unto
himself another "rib" in the person of
a lady thirty years of age. The Ma

demonstrated the truth of the adage
that an old fool is the darndest fool
of all. 1t was doubtless a case of
love at first sight-and love is said to
be blind.

The American Wooden Mills, with
1000 workmen and $45, 000, 900 in
vested capital in the wool trust, have
shut down and are lying idle-not be-
caue of strikes, not for want Of labor,
not for want Of raw materials, but to
keep up the price Of the goods on
hand and to insure the prices when
work is resumed. The trust magnates
have enough money to live in luxury
for a c~entury-but what is to become
Of the idle sworkmen and their fami-
lies, not to mention the poor devils"
who figure as the ultimate consumers
who always foot the bills down to the

Two girls writing to the Memphis

16, state that they went to a certain
Delta town, one Of the fastest in that
rich section; that they began going

considered nice and refined-but
when they refused to permit liberties

STATE OF IOWA
GETS RECRUITS
A Recent Report From the War De-
partment Shows That This State
Has Obtained More Men Than
It was Authorized to Get.

That the state of Iowa ranks far
ahead of large number of states in
recruiting, Is shown according to a
recent report from the war department,
which shows that the state up until
September / has recruited more than
one-fourth of it's authorized number
of guardsmen.
Iowa's quota is 1880 enlisted men,
with a corresponding number of Off
GERS in accordance with the units
formed
Up until the first of the month
Iowa had SIS officers and 1863 enlisted
men regularly recognized by the
militia bureau of the war depart
ment.
The number of officers and enlisted
strength thus far enrolled by the
state exceeded half of the states Of
the union and the program made by
the national guard authorities in Iowa
was favorably commented on
by Major General Jesse McCarter,
chief of the militia bureau, who said
that the work of reconstituting the
old Iowa guard organization was get
ting along fine.
The authorized strength allotted to
Iowa is the seventh largest in num-
Der among the states. The quotas of
the following states alone exceed
Iowa's number-Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, Pennsylvania, Texas, New York,
Ohio and Massachusetts.
In an effort to speed up the recruit
ment Of the national guard in all
states, the war department made
public the following table of pay,
authorized under the national defense
act TO all officers and men who par
ticipate in forty-nine drills and fifteen
days field service during each year
of their enrolment:
Captains. $7s9,S8; first lieutenant,
s462.72; second lieutenant s376.96;

RESOLUTION ON COLLECTION
OF PAVING ASSESSMENTS

Whereas. II satisfactorily appears
TO the Common Council from the
showing Of the Police Judge, that
there are large number OF property
owners who are delinquent from one
TO eight installments on liens dock
Ieted against their properties for the
improvement OF Main Street from the
bridge to the Depot and on Sixth
street from Main to Kinlock avenue.
And, whereas, II further appears that
bonds issued on such improvements
will fall due May LIST, 1921, which
renders imperative the necessity for
forcing prompt payment OF such de-
linquent paving assessments.
II also further appears that there
are u number OF delinquent and over
due installments on more recent units
of paving that should be promptly
paid. II is therefore hereby resolved
by the Common Council. that the
Police Judge and the City Attorney
be and they hereby are directed and
ordered to proceed at once to noti-
fication OF such delinquencies and
request for prompt payment, and
that In default of such payment the
said officials shall proceed on and .
after the 10th day OF September,
1920, to advertise. the property
against which such delinquencies ex-
list for sale in accordance with the
provisions OF the charter relating
thereto. ... -.., Is

GAS GOES TO WASTE
IN TEXAS FIELDS

AUSTIN. Tex, Mar. 22.--One OF
the chief causes for the great waste
OF natural gas in Texas is the grossly
inadequate royalty usually paid for
gas by the, operators, according to a
statement by the Oil and Gas Divi-
sion OF the Texas Railroad Commits
sion.
THE landowner has so little at
stake that he rarely takes any ac.
tion to prevent the waste OF his pro-
duct" the statement said. THE oper-
ator gets gas SO cheap that he has
practically no financial loss regard
less of the amount OF wastage.
''If the landowners would demand
an eighth royalty on gas as well as
oil, less gas would be wantonly vast
ed, and all concerned would get lar
ger returns on their investment"
