CENSUS STATISTICS.

Knoxville has forged to the front
as the third city. in population in
Tennessee passing Chattanooga which
has held that rank tor many years
The population of Knoxville almost
doubled during the recent decade
while the increase of Chattanooga
was comparatively slight. However,
an examination in detail of the statis-
tics shows that Knoxville made the
greater part of its gain through an
extension of its corporate limits.
Chattanooga did not take in so much
territory and is disappointed.
But while a city's growth in popula-
tion is always source of pride to
its inhabitants, the constant shift of
population from the country to the
cities is not good thing for the ma
ton and even the urban jewellers real
ize this fact. Population statistics
when published for the counties and
rural districts are going to show
that the big gain in urban population
has been at the expense of the coun-
try. II is exceedingly doubtful if
single rich blue grass county of Mid
die Tennessee or Kentucky show any
substantial gain in population during

DOWN IN GEORGIA.

When the Democratic state commit
tee of Georgia refused to permit Hoo
vers name to be printed on the ballot
for the preferential presidential pri-
mary unless he would declare that he
was affiliated with the democratic par
ty, it aroused the biggest political
storm that state has known in some
time. From all sections of the state
there has arisen a storm of protest.
The newspapers, large and small, are
denouncing the action of the commit
tee. Instead of weakening Hoover
with the democrats of the state the ar
bltrary action of the politicians has
added materially to.his support. DEM
ocrats all over Georgia are anxious
for an opportunity to vote for the for
mer food administrator and it is GER
tam that if they had the chance he
would be the popular choice of the
state.
1t is freely predicted that as a re-
suit of the action of the committee
the vote cast in the primary will be
the smallest ever known. Democrats
who are for the former food admins
traitor and democrats who are against
machine politics are going to join in
q silent protest against unfair and
abuse of power. The day of
the machine politician is rapidly pass
ing. Hoover is strong in Georgia
as he is in Tennessee and Kentucky
and elsewhere in spite of the opposi-
ton of the machine made convention
al politicians. His frankness and his |
have attracted to his
support thousands of democrats who |
are disguised with intolerant, parti- |
san politics. Party labels mean lit
lie to the average voter. Not one in |
l thousand could tell the difference
.oday between a democrat and a re-
publican except an appetite for poll.

THE HIGH SCHOOL.

Ii any evidence had been needed to
warrant approval of the selection of
Prof. Robert l.. Harris for the twelfth
time as the head of the local high
school it has been furnished in the
report of the state high school inspec
tor. The Columbia school has been
awarded the highest possible grade
and to achieve that distinction it is
not only necessary that a school
should have high average, but like
wise that its efficiency in every de-
partment should be of an unusually
high order 1t is pleasing to Maury
county people who support the school
and particularly to The Herald whose
championship of it has been one OF
the factors in its development, to
know that the school meets every
requirement.
No small share of credit is due
Superintendent Harris for this
splendid report. He is entitled to
congratulations and is richly deserv.
ing OF the continued confidence which
the school board reposes in him.. I'm
der his administration the school
has made wonderful progress. It's
discipline, as attested in hundred
different ways, is due largely to his
efforts and to the example that he
has set the faculty. The care of the
building is proof of the fine spirit,
the responsiveness to Mr.. Harris ap-
peals, OF the student, The faculty
must OF course share in the honors
and no more unselfish, devoted, cap
able body of men and women are
to be found anywhere than the facul-
ty of the city and county high
school.
In view of the high standards
achieved by the school here, of the
magnificent work that it is accom-.
plishing and of the service that II Is
rendering to the future citizens of the
republic, no greater misfortune could
come to the community than to hamp-
er its work or deny its achievements
through "a failure to accord the insti.
tuition the necessary support
