WINSLOW AND EVOLUTION.

Mr.. Winslow, in his attack on Mr..
Bryan, that peerless statesman and
apostle of peace and righteousness, in
his defense of the Bible and truth, ad-
mits at the outset that he does not
know whether the theory of evolution
is correct or not. Of course he does
not know and no one else for that
matter. Then why all this ado
about Mr.. Bryan and his contention
for the Bible that has stood the test
of time and still stands as the source
Of all knowledge and inspiration. To
quote Mr.. Bryan, "These scientific
men would have the world accept as
truth lot of their guesses." Just as
well accept Mr.. Valina's theory that
the earth is flat and the sky is solid
dome, whose edges is resting on wall
of ice, and, that there are no stars,
only lot of stationary lighthouses.
All of which to any sensible person
seems absurd in the extreme. Mr..
Winslow would have us believe that
were Mr.. Bryan contentious, if accept
ed, would revert the world back to
condition of tyrrany and ignorance of
the middle ages. Boob! Well, it
hasn't done it yet. To the contrary,
however, through the influence of the
Bible, humanity has left to it the rich
heritage of the lives of jefferson,
Franklin, Webster, Lincoln and vari-
Gus others, whose ambition in life
were to elevate humanity to a higher
plane of life and to make the world a
better place in which to live; while
Mr.. Darwin and others of his like,
were devoting their time and talents
in an effort to find the missing link"
that would connect mans ancestry to
that of foolish ape. Frankly, | am
persuaded to think that the prepon-
derence of evidence in this controver-
|sy is tremendously against the mon
keyites. Mr.. Winslow says he believes
in free thought. l do to, provided the
thinking is done in the right direction
and not in an effort to prove an alb
surd and an impossible theory. Mr..
Winslow further states that Mr.. Bry-
ans position, if unhindered, will make
our beloved America another Russia.
IL | am not seriously mistaken, there
is lot of free thinking going on in
Russia now, and, if the reports are
true, in regards to that illfated coun-
try, it is anything besides a paradise.
Mr.. Bryan says, in regard to this po-
sition on the school question, "He does
not object to any scientific truth be-
ing taught, but does object to lot of
Atheists blowing their gases in the
faces Of students. II these free think
ing Atheists want to teach Atheism let
them do it. II a man believes he has
brute blood in his veins, he can teach
that to his own children or send them
to an Atheist school, but why should
he be allowed to deal with other peo-
pies children as il they were little
monkeys" All Of which is sound log
&c. IL they want their Atheism taught
teach it, but do not ask those who res.
peet God and His revealed word to
pay the bills. | thank you.

Just to show how few men Of the
highest but positively possible class
of men are found, think Of the enor-
mously overpaid officials who take
and pocket money to which they are
not entitled-from the standpoint Of
strictest honesty. Take for instance,
the office of the Clerk of the County
court of Davidson county, said to re-
ceive in fees, one year, the. sum of
$4,000. That man knew that he was
getting thousands upon thousands Of
dollars OF the peoples money for
which he rendered no service--hence,
he was receiving money to which he
was not entitled. We mention this
one official because we have seen such
a statement of the money received by
that particular office-but there are
thousands Of others who come under
the same head.

There are so many aspirants for the
gubernatorial nomination that one
finds it hard to choose among them
in their dilemma we are able to give
the Democratic voters only one point
er-but that one big enough to go by
in settling the question. We have in
Tennessee what is known as back
tax system, system which takes
much money from the pockets of the
people and very little is said to find
Judgment in the public treasury
hence, our advice is this: If you are
in doubt, make the inquiry and whom
soever you find among the candidates
not outspokenly in favor of abolish
ing the back tax system, vote and
vote hard against him or them. Let
the same apply to candidates for the
Legislature-trust no man in office
who favors the present back tax
system,

IN MEMORY.

Tribute of love to the memory Of
little Jewel Cleo Crook, infant daugh-
ter of Barry and Elma Crook.
She was born December 10th, 1921
and died March 10, 1922, age three
months.
Farewell dear little Jewel; no
more upon earth will thy sweet smil-
ing face be seen, but the vision of thy
lovely form is ever present in our
memory. Thy infant heart was pure
as the untrodden snow; thy spirit as
gentle as the morning flower. Though
It faded early, as sweetest flowers Of
ten do, has been transplanted into a
fairer cline, where the chilling winds
and storms of earth can never reach
her more. Dear little Angel. thou art
gone to Heaven to join thy kindred
Angels in mansions on high; then
father, mother and relatives. weep no
more; you'll meet your little Jewel
again in that world of joy and peace
where pain and death are no more.
Yes. fond mother, Guardian Angels
have waited the pure spirit Of your
darling little babe to paradise of God
and may your aching heart be sooth-
cd by these beautiful thoughts. Ere
sin could blight or sorrow fade, death
timely came with friendly care the
bud to Heaven conveyed and babe it
bloom forever there.
We truly sympathize with the fam
lily in their great affliction and trust
we may all live faithfully in the SER
vice of the Lord, that we may unite
with our loved ones in that blissful
abode where parting is no more.
When overwhelmed with grief, thy
heart within thee dies hopeless and
far from all relief from Heaven dear
mother lift thine eyes.
One who loved her,
A. E. SPARKMAN.

If Senator Underwood, of Alabama,
ever regarded himself as Presidential
timber and believed that if presi-
Dental nomination ever came to the
real South, he might stand a chance,
he had better get that notion out Of
his head. He has lost caste politi-
cally-somehow, and is no longer the
South's almost 'favorite Democratic
SON." Underwood may come again,
but just now it is certainty that I'm
derwood stock in the South is not
standing exactly at par. However,
he has Joined Shields in winning more
favorable comment on the Republi-
can side.

If NJ. Stahlman mot the Major
who writes from Nashville to the
Memphis News Scimitar and applies
the name Of dog cold Limber,~ to
Gov. ALI Taylor, thinks that by such
disrespect to an old man who occupies
the gubernatorial chair, he is gaining
votes for any Democratic candidate,
he is previously mistaken. In the mat
tiers which came before the last Leg
islature, Governor Taylor stood
against the wolves" and money hogs
and it is going to take all the honest
Democrats can honestly do to defeat
him next Fall. In our opinion, Mr..
Stahlman could find more laudable
employment than throwing his boom
erangs.

THOUGHTS ON THOUGHTS
By ii. j. BOlen.

What is a man profit, if he shall
gain the world and lose his own soul.
And what is a man profit if he be-
comes multi-millionaire and lose his
health Of mind or body. And what is
he profit if he shall make success
that has cost him more than it is
worth.

Science is being regarded as spec
ulation philosophy of education-as
mere fog and delusion. There is much
fog and delusion brooding over the
subject; but the solid land of true
Silence must be somewhere beyond the
midst and we must no longer try to
remain ignorant on the subject; but
try to learn more of the scientific
achievements of the past and the
great accomplishments to be made in
the future.
Errors are not failures; the least
error should humble; but we should
never permit even the greatest to
discourage us.
Many men fail in their efforts to
create something in life. They forget
that you must be something yourself,
before you can create something.

BdHiHdtion-packed candidate, there was scurrying of political leaders. big and little. from Philadelphia to Pfttsburg, to get under the banner of the former state forester. Today 1t Is hard to find an Alter man left, in fact, the parade started primary day when Buck" Devlin, one-time Pen rose lieutenant In Philadelphia, threw his forces away from the machine candidate and proceeded to toss the vote in his ward into the Pinchot bag.
 Plnchot's election in November Is a foregone conclusion. It's certainty is made even more certain by the steady rush of the old organization men to back him up. Throughout the state since the primary tho leaders have been openly proclaiming their support.
 Sproul Offers Support
 Governor William c. Sproul. whose administration itself was one of the points upon which the Pinchot cam paign was launched ,and who was openly an advieate of Alter, offered his support to Pinchot as soon as the forester's nomination was con ceded by W. Harry Baker acting chairman of tho republican state committee.
 Baker himself has promised the forester his support and had a con ference with him immediately after the nomination became a certainty.
 Just where the old organization will get off. however. is question. Had Alter been nominated Sproul

Pinchot NolU Dominates
 Pennsylvania Machine Old Republican Organization Shaking on Its Founda- tions New Leader Arises-State Dissatisfied
 With Administration of Governor SprouI
By DAVID FERNLER Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald (Copyright, 1922, by The Age-HeraId)

darr1sburg, Pa., May 2U.-The old republican organization in Penn sylvania-the product of three gen. erations of political bosses, Quay, Cameron and Penrose-is shaking on it's foundations today as a result of the shattering blow it received Tuesday when Clifford Pinchot, op- posed by important clements of the machine, won the republican nomi- nation for governor.
 From the moment Wednesday the returns from tho primary indicated Pinchot would win over Attorney General George E. Alter. the or

was to have been backed for the late Senator Penrose's place upon tho na- tional committee, and Baker was to have received the organization sup port for state committee chairman, a post now held by United States Sen ator William E. Crow, who has been sick in a Pittsburg hospital for some time
 Not until the meeting of the state committee which must be held June IA, according to the primary law, will the public know-and it seems likely some of the old bosses them selves will have to walt until then, Che fate of the old guard machine. Election of either Sproul or Baker is not considered probable-even the old organization committeeman elected Tuesday are expected to swing to the Pinchot section.
 DispInces sprouI
 Displacing of sproul and Baker will mean the end of the old Penrose machlne--at least as such. Pinchot Is expected to avail himself of the present organization, however, and be content in giving it new coat of paint and placing a new crew of en- gineers on board.
 Defeat of Alter was not a personal one-he has been a big man in the state and party for years, and is ex- pected to continue. general dis- satisfaction over the manner in which the affairs of the state have been conducted under the present ad- ministration brought to climax by the recent state treasury exposures by Auditor General Sam Lewis was the chief reason for the Pinchot vic tory.
 The people of the state have par ticu1ar objection to the manner in which the machine had selected it's candidates, and many friends of can didates who had been forced to drop out rallied to the support of Pinchot In revenge. Although Pinchot had gathered to his support the progress sive element of the party, he also had the backing of some of the most reactionary leaders.
 Joseph R. Grundy, head of the Cen tral Pennsylvania Manufacturers as sociation, and bitter opponent to all liberal labor legislation for many years, was behind the Pinchot flag. Originally a packer of John S.. Fisher, state commissioner of bank ing, for the governorship nomination, Grundy switched his support to Pin chot for revenge against the old guard when Fisher was forced to withdraw.
 Aid of Roosevelt Leader
 In direct contract to this was the support Pinehot received In Philadel- phia where his chief lieutenant was L. Henry Walnut, former legislator, and principal opponent of Grundy on labor matters in the state legislature
 In Pittsburg also, William Flynn. a former Roosevelt lieutenant. who or ganized the state for Theodore Roosevelt in 1912, was working with the Pinchot element, while in Lam caster county, Congressman w. w.. Greist, an organization man, swung the county into the Pinchot column.
 Pinchot also had large personal following. He was friend of Roosevelt and received thousands of votes from members of the former Presidents Bull Moose party. Pin chot was known favorably to the farmers through his conservation policies and had received great amount of favorable mention on his forestry work.
