FEELS CONFIDENT OF
CARPETS NOMINATION

According to special from Knox,
vile to the Memphis Commercial APP
peal, Senator John K. Shields said in
an interview at Knoxville that the
question as to the likelihood Of Con-
gresham CARROTS nomination BY
President Wilson being confirmed by
the senate
Il feel confident that the nomina-
ton of Hon. Finis Garrett for United
States district judge for the Western
district, will be confirmed. He is a
man of the highest character for in
tegrity, an able lawyer Of judicial
temperament, and win make a splen-
did Judge
,"As a member Of the judiciary COM
mittee from Tennessee, / am giving
special attention to his nomination.
There have been some Of objections
filed against him, but they come from
small men and are little and con-
temptible in their nature. One OF
those objecting urges that he ID the
son Of Confederate soldier. These
objections come chiefly from the
chancery division Of Chancellor Ross.
and the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict, and the clerk and master is the
most active party making them.
II can not believe Judge Ross would
countenance these attacks upon Mr..
Garrett. | am glad to say that have
not found on file a letter or charge
from any reputable Republican Of
West Tennessee, and | do not be-
lieve that the Republican lawyers Of
that division viii stand for the unjust
assaults that have been made upon
him.
i understand that Mr.. Lon Scott.
representative-elect from the Eighth
District, is making himself officious
in this matter This is a Democratic
nomination under Democratic adj
ministration, and his activities will
have no other effect than to invite
opposition of an effective character
to such friends as he may propose
for nomination and expects to have
SVHAiTHieu uLueF the incoming Ad-
ministration.
"The Democrats in the Senate held
up about 5000 Of President Taft's
nominations, only allowing about
dozen to be confirmed out of courtesy
to Republican senators. can not
blame the Republicans for following
that precedent, but / belive they will
also be equally courteous and Mr..
Garrett will be one of the exceptions
made, both because he is a member
Of the House, where number of De
publican senators served with him,
and because the Tennessee senators
are asking special interest in his
case. It is the only confirmation |
will ask Of the Republicans during
this session."

MAY OPPOSE MCCLELLAN

The Memphis Commercial Appeal
of December 10 says that M. r. Pat
terson attorney general Of Shelby
county, congressman from the 10th
district and twice governor of Ten
nessee, NAV enter the Democratic
primaries against Senator X. D. Nc
Kellar when the senator comes up
for reelection in August, 1922 Al
though the primary election, when
the Democratic candidate for the
Senate is to be chosen, is more than
year and half away, already Gov.
Patterson's friends are urging him to
make the race.
The call to return to the political
arena is sounding pretty strong in
the ears of the man who has been
such prominent figure in Tennessee
rolitics in former years. While Gov.
Patterson says he is not candidate
for the Senate, he says also that he
has not refused to listen to his
friends in this and other sections Of
tie state who are urging him to be
a candidate. but is leaving the mat
ter open for mature elaboration.

TAR HEEL" FARMER
GAINS Is POUNDS
Hutchens Now Enjoys Things He
Never Dared Eat Before
Taking TanlaC.

j. d. Hutchens, a well-to-do and
highly respected farmer, living on
R. F. D. No. 2, Yadkinville, N. G.,
was in that city a few days ago, and
in an interesting conversation related
the benefits he had received by tax,
ing Tanlac. Mr.. Hutchens' statement
follows:
"For two years suffered from
indigestion so badly that even the
sight of food sometimes nauseated
me. couldn't think of eating bacon,
ham or any heavy, rich food. / hard
" ate enough to keep bird alive
and lost twenty-five pounds In
weight. / got so little rest at night
/ was all tired out in the morning and
unfit for work.
This was the fix / was in when I
started taking Tanlac. The way that
medicine completely knocked out my
troubles was big surprise. 1t wasn't
any time before / had my old appe-
tite back and some to spare. Now |
eat ham, fat bacon and anything else
I want and it all agrees with me. 1t
does me good, too, for I've gotten
back every pound | had lost.
II sleep so sound that even the
farm bell doesn't always wake me
up and one of the hands has to rouse
me. Positively, wouldn't take the
finest farm in the county for the
good Tanlac has done me. I think
its foolish for~ people to 20 on suf-
fering from stomach trouble, when
all they have to do TO get rid Of it is
to 90 to drug store and get Tanlac.
Tanlac is sold in Covington by
Alexander Drup Co.; in Atoka by R.
c. Tenant; in Munford by Alternately
Drug Co., and in Mason by Union
Dr1Io Co.

TmBERMEN's STRIKE STILL on
Many Mills In Upper Michigan Have
Escaped the Strike Order

The striking timber workers, a
mention of whose walk-out was made
IN last weeks issue, are still out.
While there are reports of a weaken
ing OF front, there has been nothing
happening that would lead an impair
tial observer to conclude that the men
are weakening. II is well known that
at least so per cent of the men did not
wish the strike to be called and this
90 per cent forms a nucleus that will
sooner or later cause the breaking OF
the strikes back
The nub of the argument seems 10
be the eight hour day. The men stand
pat upon that demand while the mill
owners are just as determined not
TO yield.
II Is claimed, and the claim seems
TO have a great deal OF support In
fact, that the mill owners are willing
TO grant an advance i'm wages that
will equal an eight hour day with two
hours overtime at extra pay If the
men will base their demands upon a
10 hour day. This the men refuse Ia
do.
In addition there is the bogy OF a
closed shop which the mill owners
positively refuse TO stand for. A
closed shop. especially in the woods
operations would. the mill men claim
work havoc with the numbering in
dustry
Many mills are running, among
them the Pentoga mill, the one al
Hermansville and several other places
in the peninsula. Most OF the large
mills have been closed.
1t was reported during the week
that the occupants OF the company
houses at Sagola were notified to eth
er go TO work or move out of the
houses.
So far the strike has been orderly
The only thing that will bring on
trouble will be an attempt OF the mill
owners to reclaim their houses from
their striking employees. That con
tingency hasn't arisen yet and II is
hoped that il will not.
The results OF the strike will be a
decreased output of lumber among the
hardwood mills of the northwest,
the spelling of lot of logs that have
been banked for shipment and manu-
facture and the loss of many dollars
TO the workmen and their families.
With the lumber market in the con-
dition that II is at the present time
the mill owners will easily recoup
from the increased price they will get
for their lumber after the strike Is
over for all timber lost.
