Opens His Campaign - Sketch of
Life with Press Comments

the entire expense of the Republican
end of it
He conducted the campaign which
resulted In fair elections in Tennes-
see.
Realizing the necessity to Chatta-
nooga of increased transportation Ia
cilities, and the importance OF the
Tennessee river as an artery OF COM
merce and source Of power, ne as
sisted in the promotion and organi-
cation of the Tennessee River I'M
proyement Association. He was the
first president and served several
terms. During that time he was the
president of the Chattanooga Steam
boat Company, which operated line
of steamboats, between Chattanooga
and st. Louis.
In 1912, after the death of Senator
Bob Taylor, Mr.. Sanders, though not
an applicant, was appointed to fill out
the unexpired term, and served IN
the United States Senate for nearly
a year.
During that time he attended to
the usual run of duties In the various
departments, in committees, and In
the Senate, where he seldom missed
a roll call except when paired.
He definitely undertook one thing,
which was to secure the passage of an
act to prevent the shipment OF In
toxicating liquor from wet into dry
states. He took that for his task and
accomplished it. 1t is true that the
final vote was taken after his term
expired, but it was he who introduced
a bill that was favorably reported by
the committee and 1t was he who Sc
cured the consideration OF the bill 10
the Senate. This laid the foundation
for the passage of the Eighteenth
Amendment to the Constitution.

of affairs should be elected to the
Senate. Tennessee has two Senators
and ten Representatives in Congress,
Eleven of them are lawyers and one
of them is a business man. 1t would
he to the interest of the state OF Ten
nessee to have more business men In
Congress. There is now an oppor'
tunity to get at least one more busi-
ness man.
FARMERS.
Every farmer is business man.
He should take business mans view
of things. He should seek for bust
ness representation in Congress. The
farmer is the principal producer OF
this country. He is the most impor-
tant man among us. Yet he has the
greatest handicaps. He is obliged to
gamble on the sunshine and the rain.
After his crop is made he is at the
mercy of the market manipulators'
At the same time he has to pay
another mans price for what he buys
No class needs the helping and pro
tecting hand of the government more
than the farmers. They are every
year receiving more attention in Con
gress. There is now farm bloc
among its members similar to the
group of Congressman who have beer

GovERNM EMIT.

There is feeling that government
Is far-away matter. We are accus-
toned to saying 1t is of the people.
This does not bring the idea near
enough home. The government is of
you and me, by you and me, and for
you and me. The government is our
business. You and | select the men
to manage it. They are the Presi-
dent, the Congress and the courts.
They have thousands of assistants
who are paid by you and me. When
any money is appropriated by the
government you and | have to pay II.
The staggering expense of govern
ment and the consequent debts and
taxes have largely grown out of a
want of somebody to take the part
of government. Those who are dele
gated and sworn to protect its In
terests are too often found in a gem
eral and combined onslaught for what
they can get out of it. Between per-
sons and corporations dealing with
the government | am strongly on the
side of the government, for the gov
eminent is you and me.

men and women voters who want
better and less expensive government

TAXES.
Our government is so tremendous
ly in debt that taxes are necessarily
very high. Our debt is nearly twenty
four thousand million dollars and our
interest account is nearly one thou
sand million dollars year. Nothing
but severe business economy by the
government will ever enable us to pay

INDIANS WILL STAGE A
MOVIE SHOW

CHICAGO, April 26-What the
totem pole means in Indian his
tory and legend will be made
clearer to the school children of
the country when films soon to be
made by the Society of Visual Ed
ucation are thrown on the screen.
Early this summer on those far
off islands lying along the upper
coast of British Columbia, hun
dreds of Indians will take part in
the unfolding Of the legend sur
rounding the totem poles which
travellers see in the Alaskan vii
lagos. This work will be under
the direction of Prof. F. E. Fro
bese, who for 40 years has made
his home among the Indians on
Queen Charlotte and Prince of
Wales Islands. The services of
Prof. Frobese were obtained by H.
L. Clarke, vice president of the So
ciety for Visual Education, as
the man best fitted to carry out
this important plan.
Every part in the drama will &C
taken by Indians and drilling them
for the ambitious work will begin
in a few weeks under Prof. Fro
be5e's instruction. Two films have
been arranged for and they will
be produced purely from an edu-
cational standpoint for use in the
public schools. While pictures
have been made of the totem
poles and of some of the Indians
of that stormy region, it is believ-
ed this is the first attempt to
pat the meaning of the symbols
into form understandable to the
children. 1t is expected that both
films will he ready for use by the
opening Of the schools in the fall.
