DEATH OF CHARLES is
A SHOCK TO yIENNESF

Vienna. April / (by the Asso-
ciated Press) The news of the
death OF former Emperor Charles
became known at dusk on rainy
saturday half holiday through hur-
riedly printed handbills which were
scattered throughout the city.
There was an unexpected display
OF emotion by the people of Vienna.
Patrons who were dining in the
betterclass restaurants Immediately
iert their tables and thronged the
streets. The cafes also were de-
serted. Many persons wept as
word OF the death of the former
monarch was passed about.
1t is difficult to analyze the no.
litical effect of the death OF
Charles on the complicated situa-
ton In Austria Hungary. The gen.
eral belief prevails in monarchial
circles tonight, however, that the
passing of the former ruler will
serve to consolidate the various
factions. throwing together the
outright Carlists and legitimates in
support of Francis Joseph Otto. 1t
Is felt that these adherents of
Charles win rally round his eldest
son and throw their efforts against
the Friedrich party and the social
ed electives.
Sympathy prevails for former
Empress Zita because of her an
preaching accouchment. She is
not, however, regarded as a politi-
cal factor. inasmuch as the law of
the house of Hapsburg gives her
no legal rights, while the fact that
she is of alien blood places her be-
low the youngest prince of the
blood.
There already Is much specula-
tion here regarding the efforts that
are expected to be made to bury the
body of Charles in the church of
Capuchins here. Every Hapsbu.g
king since the year 1922 rests in
the imperial vault in the church
and every prince and princess of
the blood royal. except one, lies
there. Princess Louise, daughter
Of Maria Theresa, alone rests on
foreign soil--in France.
The belief is held here that the
radical socialists would regard the
burial Of Charles in Vienna as a
incident which would
likely to rally the monarchjsts
Austria, Hungary and Bavaria, & ii
possibly of Prussia. to great cere-
display.
1t is curious fact that the
church of the Capucbins is vir-
tually private property. The title
of the house OF Hapsburg to 1t was
granted with the proviso that it
should forever be the burial place
for members Of that dynasty.

COAL. INDUSTRY
IS BEING OVER
DEVELOPED, SAYS
(By The Associated Press

New York, April / (by the Asso-
ciated Press) Congressional ac-
ton to prohibit over development
of the coal industry was proposed
here today by Philip Murray, vice
president of the United Mine
Workers of America, as "cure for
the great evil which has America
in the grip of a nationwide strike
today"
Ten thousand bituminous mines
are being worked In this country,
when 1000 mines could produce
sufficient coal for the nations
needs" he declared
"The reason for this condition is
the greediness Of corporations who
hold undeveloped coal lands to
make them pay profits. New mines
are opened before there is a mar
ket for the products, millions of
dollars are invested in properties
that can only work part time, 1907
600 more men than the industry
can keep employed are drawn into
1t.
1--WE have seasons of great activ-
tiles in all the mines, followed by
long periods of idleness. Men are
required to live 365 days on the
earnings OF from 40 to 200 days.
There is a huge waste of human
power, Of money and of coal--fol-
lowed by strikes"
To prevent such strikes. Murray
proposes that congress pass "regu-
latory legislation prohibiting fur
Their development of bituminous
coal lands for at least ten years"
1.-THE public" he said. "would be
enabled to satisfy its coal needs at
q reasonable price and overdump,
the great disease with which the
industry is afflicted today. would
be cured. But an industry that
persists in paying it's labor only
200 days of the year must continue
to feed it for the full S65 days"

President 0bregon, Discuss
ing Recognition BY u. S.,
Says the Status General
Iy Is Unchanged.

Mexico City, April (by the AS
ISOLATED Press, )--DiscGss ing the
question Of recognition of the Mex
lean government, President Obre-
gon today told the foreign news
paper correspondents the status In
general was unchanged. In an
swer to a question the president
stated that no communications had
passed between the United States
war department and the Mexican
government, relative to permission
for an American airplane route
from the Texas border to Panama.
Asked whether the recent recos-
milton furry had it's origin in Unit
ed States or Mexico, President OBJ
RECON said he did not know but he
was sure it was can outgrowth of
increasing sentiment in favor of
recognition because Mexico is show
ing it has legitimate government.
He gave no hint of the status or
Secretary De La Huerta's negotia-
tions with New York bankers.
He said there was nothing es-
pecially significant in the recent
White House declaration that the
treasury secretary would be re-
ceived by President Harding if he
went to Washington, adding that
this would simply be a matter Of
courtesy and reciprocal courtesy
would be rendered by the Mexican
government If occasion arose"
!. The president denied reports that
the Mexican government intended
to send an unofficial observer to
the Genoa economic conference.

THE BARRY BOYS-ALL BUT ONE

We had with US this week all Of
our sons except Valentine, who re-
sides in Detroit, Michigan. Those
present were Charlie, the elder, who
lives in Memphis; Henry, the next,
who has stayed with the old home
town" all of his life except one short
experience in Memphis; Curry, the
third, who has been for ten years with
the Clements Paper Company, at
Nashville, and who has with him his
wife and baby boy-our first grand
son; then comes Matthew, who re-
turned Sunday from Memphis, where
he had spent two weeks in the st.
Joseph Hospital and with his brother,
Charlie-and last but not least, Ed
ward, the baby Of the family, who is
not yet seventeen. Catherine, our on
ly daughter living, rounded out the
crowd. The week has been a great
one in the Barry home at 318 North
Main-marred only by the absence Of
the one boy. Yet the house was big
enough to still accommodate Col. H.
E. Graper, his son, Cumberland
Babe Ruth, the bull pup-and in spite
of the crowd, we still missed Mrs.
Myrtle Joyner, who is temporarily alb
sent from her home under our roof.

Mayor Holland says he is willing
to adopt any plan to get rid Of the
loafers who have been infesting the
court square this summer-princi-
pally negroes. Buncnes of them
counting ten to twenty, have lolled on
the grass and often not one of them
could be had to do lick Of work
Lexington needs everything else
worse than loafers, white or black
and when we say Lexington we
mean the whole of Henderson county.
Philip Deere, of Tishimingo, Okla
homa, who left this county as years
ago, reached here last Saturday to
visit his relatives, l.. ID. Deere, of the
Warren's Bluff and Rock Hill COM
munities and the connection general
ly. The mother of E. E. Milan, at
Beech Bluff, Madison county, was a
sister Of Philip Deere and he has or
will visit "Em" and family on this
trip. Mr.. Deere, who is a hotel keep
err in his town, says there is wonderful
improvement in Henderson county
and if he will come back after ten
years we will be able to show him
more additional improvement than
has been made in fifty years in the
past. We are believer in the posi-
bilities of Henderson county. By the
way-Mr. Deere can find in all the
county Of Henderson no better show
ing than is evident in the Rock Hill
community.

Admission 20, 35c

The Bridge Club was entertained
Thursday afternoon of last week from
four to six o'clock by Miss Ruth Lin
denfield, on Clifton Street. The pro-
pressive players were provided with
two tables to accommodate the eight
present. The prizes offered were won
by Mrs. Samuel 7. Parker, first, Mrs,
Herschel Dennison, second, and conso-
lation to Mrs. E. l.. Drake. Wonder
full salad and iced refreshments were
served at the conclusion of the game.
Lawyer Perry M. Harbert, of Sa-
vannah, defeated candidate for At
torney- general, was in Lexington last
Saturday. Mr.. Harbert is the kind of
man who "Can meet with triumph
and disaster and treat hose two i'm
posters just the same.p From our
personal standpoint, we can express
the opinion that if he had been elect
ed, Mr.. Harbert would have made a
good prosecuting attorney and that
Tom Murray having been elected,
WILL make the same.
| Commissioner Peck has a fine arti-
Gle in this issue of the Progress. He
makes clear the same idea that we
have lately talked-that enough ener-
gy is loafed away in Lexington to
make Henderson county the finest
living place in West Tennessee. Our
whole country will never do its best
until we have systematically applied
to the needs Of the country the human
energy within its borders. A Jew
looks with utmost contempt on "loaf
er" and everybody else ought to do so.
A real lazy man is more expensive
liability than an Industrious crook.
We are indebted to our brother-in-
law, Mr.. Frank H. Helton, Commits
sioner of Finance Of the City of San
ia Monica, California, for a copy Of
72-page issue Of the Santa Monica
Evening Outlook and Telegram. This
great issue is general boost for the
enterprises and general inducements
of the towns Of Santa Monica, Venice,
Ocean Park and Sawtelle and COM
pletely covers all the grounds. 1t car
ries the statement that Commissioner
Helton has a suavity of manner,
which makes it a pleasure to the peo-
pie to part with their tax money-so
him.
Through the work of County Agent
H. A. Powers, there is evident in Hen
derson county an increased interest in
fruit growing which is alone worth
the cost of the county agent. Corn
and cotton come first and second in
the county, hay third and apples and
peaches fourth and fifth. Next year,
if there is fruit crop, there are 60
ing to be more good apples and
peaches in this county than have been
grown since the good old days" when
the pests which now, unless suffi-
GENTLY fought, destroy the fruit
crops, were comparatively unknown.
The increased interest in poultry rails
ing is likewise noticeable, as il is in
agriculture and soil improvement.

WORTH READING.

Every taxpayer in Tennessee ought
to get copy of the Saturday Even
ing Post for August 5 and turn at
once to the editorial page. where the
average man win find some mighty
good advice, and If he looks closely
enough he might find his likeness re-
Elected in one or more of the virile
paragraphs.
This editorial is of great timeli-
ness to Tennesseans, in view of the
remarkably light vote polled in the re-
cent primaries.
For two years we have heard moth
ing but complaints of high taxes and
disagreement.
Yet, when the opportunity is offer
ed to correct abuses we find the great
majority of the people taking it out
in talking with the minority doing
their full duty at the pills.
AS the editor of the Post points out,
what we need in this country right
now is a short but intensive course in
politics. We need to have facts and
we need to learn why things are and
how wrong conditions can be correct
ed.
We cannot find what is wrong or
take the proper course toward rem
edy if we listen to what some boss or
interested officeholder had to say to
us. If we let those fellows do our
thinking we are going to keep on the
road We have been following.
But if we do the thinking for our
selves we are pretty apt to follow up
with action which we at least believe
will be of some benefit to us.
We have been investing in political
bunk for years without end. We yell
about high taxes and the rule of
special interests. We swear and we
fume, we kick and balk, until the
time comes to vote--then we stay at
home and let the other fellow do the
job we set out to do, and we get just
what we ought to get.
We have honest officials-more
honest ones than dishonest ones. If
we did not, there would be an end to
government.
But there is lots of room for i'm
provement. And that Improvement
can be brought out il we would take
one-half the interest in politics we
take in our private business.
AS the editor Of the Post poitns out,
every man and woman in this country
ought to take direct interest in poll
tics, because through one avenue or
another we are all paying our share
of the cost Of government. The tax
burden of the nation of the state, of
the county, of the school district, of
the municipality, is passed on to the
dear old public. A man doesn't have
to own a house in order to>pay taxes.
Taxes on real estate are passed along
in most instances just as the taxes on
food and clothing are. They are paid
at the source, but they are collected
at tn epoint of, consumption.
Every time we put crook into Of
flee or elect an inefficient person we
are adding to the burden we have to
carry. We pay for this sort of thing
when the tax collector comes around
next time.
If every man and woman would
give few minutes a day to the study
of government and taxation we would
have an intelligent government. III
we get the latter now, it is by acct
dent nine times out of ten. If we un-
derstood little more about govern
ment and then did our full duty as
citizens, political accidents would be
as scarce as hen teeth.
Most of US are mere morons in the
field of politics. Tonnes
sean.

COMPLETE RETURNS SHOW
DEAD CONGRESSMAN LOST

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. 9.-Com.
plete returns received Tuesday night
indicate that w. c.. Salmon has de-
feated the late Congressman Lemuel
Padgett, for the Democratic nominal
ton from the Seventh Tennessee dis
trict. Earlier returns gave Padgett,
though dead, the nomination by sever
al hundred votes. He died the day be-
fore the primary, Aug. 8.
The lead OF Mr.. Salmon is only 81
votes in 10 counties, and it is probable
that an official count by the State
Democratic executive committee on
Aug. 20, will be necessary to decide
the winner.
