Sir Hamar Greenwood,
Chief Secretary, Outlines
Government Policy.
WON'T BE DEFERRED
Imperial and Strategic
Unity of British Isles Is
Called Fundamental.
CRIME AS BAR TO PEACE
This Will Be Put Down and
Two Parliaments Set Up
i'm Ireland.

BELFAST. Oct. 13.--Sir Hamar Green
wood, Chief Secretary for Ireland. in
a speech here to-day announced that
the Government would not tolerate an
being independent He said he, Wis
count French, Lord Lieutenant for
Ireland and Sir Frederick Nevil
Macready, commander of the military
forces in Ireland, We're in complete
accord and did not contemplate re-
higning.
Sir Hamar declared that the Gov
ernment intended to continue with the
home rule bill which 1t had prepared
and would enlarge it in the most gen
erous manner, especially in the direc-
ton of finance, thereby making a
complete and final settlement of the
Irish problem.
'"rhe Government will not be DETECTED
IN its course by promises of better mea-
lures or other measures" said the Chief
Secretary. I'VE believe in the imperial
and strategic unity of these islands We
believe that this unity is fundamental
for the well being of the whole empire.
Murder Bar to Home Rule.
THE real bar to peace in Ireland and
NE immediate passing of a bill that
would enable Irishmen to govern their
affairs Is the campaign of deliberate and
t.-~s tl-As
IN certain parts Of Ireland. No civilized
Government could tolerate that, and
can assure all those who read what I
say that 1t makes no difference what
1t costs In men. money or time, the Gov
ernnent will go forward unflinchingly to
treat criminals like the criminals they
are. We are breaking the terror. In
certain counties the boycott has ceased
and it will cease everywhere.
THE Government OF Ireland bill dealt
with great reality. namely that Ireland
historically and In many other ways Ia
divided into two main parts. This is to
be regretted. but is still fact. This
is the first Government that has faced
that fact l am not one OF those who
believe that the setting UP of two parlia-
1nents in Ireland carries with II any of
those disabilities and awful consequences
that people who know nothing about
home rule are constantly prophesying"
The Secretary cited Canada and Aus
tralia as examples where self-govern-
ment started with number of small
parliaments. He appealed to the Irish
TO guarantee success In undertaking
self-government and blamed suggestions
in the press and from former Cabinet
Ministers as responsible in a measure
for the morass.

LOONEY DEFEATS
VICES FOR SENATE
BY IMMENSE VOTE
MAURY COUNTiAN WINNER IN
TWENTIETH DISTRICT WITH
NEARLY 1000 TO SPARE.
SWEEPS COUNTY LIKE A BROOM
Race Was Never in Doubt From the
Troe That the Polls Were Opened.
Got Practically All the votessin the
Ninth and Seventh.

Judge Edmund ID. Looney, former
county Judge of Maury county, char
man of the democratic executive com
mittee and for thirty years prominent
in the affairs Of the county, was on
Tuesday elected to the senate from
this district by majority of not less
than 500 and which may run as high
as 1000. Judge Looney carried Maui
ny county by about 1900.
Judge A. IL. Wiggs, Looney's oppon-
ent carried his home county of Per-
ry by about $50 votes and he had ma
jority of $50 in Lewis county, giving
him a combined majority in the two
counties OF 500 and giving the victory
to Looney by at least 500 votes.
The result of this race was rot in
doubt from the time that the polls
opened in Columbia and Mt. Pleasant
on Tuesday morning. It was fore
gone conclusion that Looney would
win by the largest majority given a
candidate for the Legislature in recent
years. 1t was apparent that he would
carry both Columbia and Mt. Pleasant
districts by eight to ten to one.
OF the 1000 votes polled in the coun-
ty nearly one-half or / $50 were polled
in the seventh and ninth districts
The ninth district lacked only few
votes of casting one-third of the total
of the county. having polled the enor
nous total Of 1872. Ordinarily the
ninth district casts only oHe-fourth OF
the total poll of the county, Culleoka
in the fifth district, sustained its repu
tation of being the largest country yot
ing precinct OF the county. Its total
poll of 302 established new record
for recent years.
Judge Looney, the new senator is
about fifty years of age, and is now
engaged in the insurance business, al
though he formerly practieed law and
was for many years Judge of the ceun-
ty court of this county. He is also
largely interested in cotton planting
in Mississippi and he is member of
the Presbyterian church.

Padgett Makes Run Away.

Although Roberts carried Maury
county by approximately the majority
that The Herald had estimated, hay
ing a lead over Taylor OF little more
than 900, the gubernatorial race was
almost as thrilling as that of Senator
and representatives and as replete
mons, the old bed rock of regularity,
gave Taylor aud Harding both sub.
stantial majorities. Carriers Creek
was the on'y box in the second district
that gave Roberts majority. In the
third Kedron and Rally Hill both went
to Taylor and Neapolis was tie.
The fourth district proved to be an
other Taylor district, the republicans
carrying Caldwells by nearly four to
one The fifth district went into the
democratic column due to Roberts biz
lead at Glendale but the long and bit
ter fight at Culieoka resulted in a re
publican victory by forty,ohe majority
The seventh and ninth districts real
ly saved Roberts in the election as
they did in the primary. The COVER
norl came to the two town districts
with only 200 votes to spare, but his
overwhelming victory in the seventh
and ninth districts gave him the coun-
ty by something less than the thous-
and that The Herald had estimated,
The bitter senatorial fight unquestion-
ably helped Roberts by bringing out a
big vote in the two towns. Had there
been a normal vote in Columbia and
Mt. Pleasant that was cast In the rest
of the county, the governors majority
would have been considerably cut.
AT only two precincts of the county
did Governor Roberts receive more
votes than Cox and they were at Glen

All That Did Not Join in the Great
Republican Procession.

Early returns from Tuesdays cleo.
ton indicated the greatest republican
landslide in history with the possible
exception of that which landed Roose-
welt in the presidency sixteen years
ago. In fact it is by no means as
sured that Cox will have as many
electoral Votes as Parker had in 1904.
The only certain states carried by
Cox are Alabama, Kentucky, Texas,
Oklahoma. Arkansas, Louisiana, Mis-.
s.ssippi, Florida, Georgia, Virginia,
North Carolina and South Carolina,
with the probabilities that Tennessee
will fall into his column. His certain
electoral vote is 1877 and adding Ten.
nessee he will have 149.
The following states were in the
doubtful column at 1850 O'Clock this
morning: Missouri. Is votes;' Idaho.
A. Nevada, B. Washington, T. Utah, a:
New Mexico, 3. This is total of 50.
Even should Cox carry all of these he
would have only 1873 votes or eighty
seven short of an election. First re-
turns indicated democratic victory
in Missouri, but later reports gave
Harding substantial lead and the
chances are that he will carry the
state
States of the East and Middle West
gave Harding enormous majorities.
Massachusetts rolled UP the unprece-
denied plurality of nearly 100000 for
the republicans, New York state gave
Harding a plurality at not less than
million votes. Ohio decided between

100000 Indiana rolled up a record

by no means out OF the republican

lar majorities, but it is certain that
Hardings plurality of the popular vote
will exceed 100000 and establish
new record.
If the woman vote had any effect
on the election 1t was simply to IN

THIS is in brief the story of the cleo,
ton in Maury county Tuesday. The
above figures give the complete unoffi
cial vote of the county published in.
detail elsewhere.
Cox carried the county for president
by 1912 votes, about 40 less than vii,
son had four years ago. His vote,
however was 400 more than that of
Wilson, but Harding's vote exceeded
that of Hughes by around 600.
Roberts carried the county by 9f
OF 400 less than Rye had four years
ago.
Padgett's. majority was the largest
that he ever received in the county,
lacking only few votes of being q
500. His majority and his vote were
both record breakers and were the
largest given any candidate Tuesday.
Looney beat Wigs in the county
1884 votes. Jones defeated his two
opponents by between 200 and 800
votes. Russell was the second man
elected to the house of representatives
having a lead of thirty votes over Hill
his colleague on the democratic tick
ct.
The aggregate vote for president
was the largest cast for any Office and
ran slightly over 1000. The women
voted in large numbers in the ninth
district and there was a scatterinw wo-
man vote in nearly all of the precincts
but it is safe to say that the woman
vote of the county was less than
twenty per cent of the total cast.
