GOVERNOR PATTERSON
QUITS TENNESSEE RACE
Patterson’s Withdrawal Has the
Politicians Guessing.
STATEMENf ISSUED TO VOTERS
Chief Executive ol Tennessee Admits That
HU Candidacy Might Make Oectlon
ol Republican Possible.
Shrewd Scheme Stopped Run.
Many years ago, in consequence of
a commercial panic, there was a severe
run on a bank In South Wales, and
the small farmers jostled each other
in crowds to draw out their money.
Things were rapidly going from bad
to worse, when the bank manager, In
a fit of desperation, suddenly be
thought him of an expedient. By his
directions a clerk, having heated some
sovereigns in a frying-pan, paid them
over the counter to an .anxious appli
cant. “Why, they’re quite hot!” said
the latter as he took them up. “Of
course,” whs the reply; ‘‘what else
could you expect? They are only just
out of the mold. We are coining them
by hundreds as fast as we can.”
“Coining them!” thought the simple
agriculturists; “then there Is no fear
of the money running short!” With
this their confidence revived, the pan
ic abated, and the baDk was enabled
to weather the storm.
Nashivlle, Tenn.—Gov. M. It. Patter
son withdrew from the race to suc
ceed himself as governor of Tennes
see. Governor Patterson was the nom
inee of the “regular" faction of the
Democratic party and has been bit
terly opposed by the Independent-
Statewide • Prohibition - Democrats,
who, in coalition with the Republi
cans, elected a state judiciary last
month, defeating a ticket for which
Governor Patterson made a strenuous
campaign of the state. Governor Pat
terson, in his address announcing ills
withdrawal, declares ho will not be
an obstacle In the way of his party's
success at the polls, nor will he will
ingly contribute In any way to the
possibility of success of the Repub
licans in Tennessee. He withdraws
in the interest of harmony and that
Democratic factions may got together
to prevent the loss of the state in
November.
He makes reference to Interference
of a Republican president in Tennes
see politics. In an intrvlew follow
ing the issuance of tiie statement,
Governor Patterson declares that he
has no personal preference in the
matter of a Democratic nominee and
that he will take the stump for him,
whoever he may be. Patterson's po
litical career has been a stormy one,
Including his defeat of former Senator
E. W. Carmack for the gubernatorial
nomination in a sensational campaign,
followed by the killing of Carmack
here by the Coopers, their trial which
attracted nation-wide attention ana
Patterson’s pardon of D. B. Cooper
within a few minutes after his con
viction by the superior court.
A PHY8ICAL WRECK.
The Enemies.
Apropos of the enmity, now happily
buried, that used to exist between
Minneapolis and St. Paul, Senator
Clapp said at a dinner in the former
city:
“I remember an address on careless
building that I once heard In Minne
apolis.
“ ‘Why,’ said the speaker in the
course of this address, ‘one inhabitant
of St. Paul is killed by accident in the
streets every 48 hours.’
“A bitter voice from the rear of the
hall interrupted:
“ ‘Well, it ain’t enough,’ it said.”
Misdirected Energy.
“How did the street car company
come to fire that, old conductor? I
thought he had a pull?”
“He did; but he didn’t use it on the
cash register.”—Christian Advocate.

PRESSED HARD.
Coffee’s Weight on Old Age.
When prominent men realize the In
jurious effects of coSee and the change
In health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit of others.
A superintendent of public schools
In a Southern state says: “My moth
er, since her early childhood, was an
inveterate coffee drinker, had been
troubled with her heart for a number
of years and complained of that ‘weak
all over’ feeling and sick stomach.
“Some time ago I was making an of
ficial visit to a distant part of the
country and took dinner with one of
the merchants of the place. I noticed
a somewhat peculiar flavor of the cof
fee, and asked him concerning It. He
replied that it was Postum. I was so
pleased with it that, after the meal was
over, I bought a package to carry
home with me, and had wife pre
pare some for the next meal; the
whole family liked It so well that we
discontinued coffee and used Postum
entirely.
“I had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mother’s con
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for a short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches 'were not so frequent, and
her general condition much Improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest of us.
“I know Postum has benefited my
self and the other members of the fam
ily, but in a more marked degree In
the case of my mother, as she was a
victim of long standing.”

CONDITION OF COTTON.
Moderate Improvement Shown in the
Condition of the Cottcs Crop.
Memphis, Tenn.—The Commercial-
Appeal published the following sum
mary of cotton crop conditions.
A moderate improvement in the cot
ton crop is indicated during the week
in all states east of Mississippi river
and in Arkansas, Rains fell in nearly
all sections and the plant was stimu
lated to better growth and shedding
was checked where it had begun. Ow
ing to the growing condition or tne
plant, cotton in all this territory is
opening slowly. There are sections in
the eastern and central belt which
have had little or no rain and these
complain of severe shedding
New Orleans.—The Times-Democrat
in presenting its monthly crop re
port on the cotton crop for the last
month, says:
1. Taking the belt as a whole, there
has been a moderate deterioration.
2. The boll weevil has done great
damage in certain districts of Arkan
sas, Louisiana and Mississippi.
3. The crop is very spotted and very
late. A premature frost would conse
quently be disastrous and even a nor
mal one would greatly shorten the
yield.
4. Farmers seem disposed to meet
the market with the first pickings, but.
the belief in higher prices is strong
and may lead to a general holding
movement when the first rush to pay
debts is over.
Appalachian Exposition Opens.
Knoxville, Tenn.—The Appalachian
exposition, a demonstration of the re
sources and progress of the South,
opened in this city September 12 to
continue one month through October
12. The official call says the exposi
tion is dedicated to the “cause of For
estry Conservation,” improvement oi
waterways, exploitation of the r®
sources and potentialities of the won
derful Appalachian mountain empire,
and the demonstration of t-he progress
of the South in agriculture, mining
and commercial pursuits.
New York Tunnel Horror.
New York.—At least nine laborers
were killed outright and ten otner- D
injured, one of them critically and
all of them seriously, in collapse m
an overhanging shoulder of rock from
above the western mouth of the old
Erie tunnel, under Bergen hill, con
necting the Erie tunnel in Jersey City
with its westward divisions.
The collapse was directly beneath
the edge of the Hudson Boulevard
which at that point runs along the
inner line of Berger hill. Of the
known dead four are Americans.
Gold Bullion Stolen.
Seattle, Wash.—Gold bullion valued
at $57,600, part of a consignment of
$170,000 from the Washingtori-Alaska
bank of Fairbanks to the Dextar-Hor-
ton National Bank of Seattle, on the
steamship Humboldt, was stolen in
transit. Lead was substituted. The
stolen gold weighed 250 pounds. When
the boxes were opened at Dawson the
golden bar3 were found toi be as
stated in the express company’s pa
pers. The boxes were opened again
at the United States assay office in
Seattle and the theft was discovered.
Health Marvelously Restored by Doan's
Kidney Pills.
William T. Thomas, 213 So. Franklin
St., DuBols, Pa., says: "A physician
Informed me I had Bright’s disease and
I was laid up for three months. 1 had
terrible backaches
and the passages of
the kidney secretions
nearly kiled me. I was
nervous, had night
sweats and could not
sleep. In fact, I was
a physical wreck.
Doan's Kidney Pills
gave me prompt relief. Continued use
cured me.”

PROMISED A LIVELY TIME
Mark Twain's Outline of Editorial
Policy Ho Had Made Up His
Mind to Adopt.
Mark Twain took the editorial chair
on tho Buffalo Express In August,
1869, and this Is the paragraph In
which he made the readers acquaint
ed with his new responsibility: “I only
wish to assure parties having a friend
ly interest in tho prosperity of this
journal that I am not going to hurt
the paper deliberately and Intention
ally at any time. I am not going to
Introduce any startling reform or In
any way attempt to make trouble. 1
am simply going to do my plain, un
pretending duty—when I cannot get
out of it. 1 shall work diligently and
honestly and faithfully at all times
and upon all occasions—when priva
tion and want shall compel me to do
so. In writing 1 shall confine myself
to the truth, except when It. is attend
ed with inconvenience. I shall wlth-
eringly rebuke all forms of crime and
misconduct, except when committed
by the party inhabiting my own vest.
I shall not make use of slang or vul
garity upon any occasion or in any
circumstances and shall never use
profanity except in discussing house
rent and taxes. Indeed, upon second
thought, I will not even then, for It is
Inelegant, un-Christian and degrading.
I shall not often meddle with politics,
because we have a political editor who
Is already excellent and only needs a
term in the penitentiary to be perfect.
I shall not wrile any poetry unless I
conceive a spite against the subscri
bers.”
Unfair.
Senator John H. Bankhead, discus
sing a political move, said with a
smile:
“Oh, it’s too coldly calculated. It’s
almost unfair. In fact, It’s like Mrs.
Blank.
“Mrs. Blank is a leader of Bar Har
bor society. Her husband said to her,
one afternoon, as she made a very
elaborate toilet for a garden party that
she was giving to some members of
the British legation:
“ 'Why did you write to all our guests
that this party was to be absolutely in
formal?’
“Mrs. Blank laughed.
“ ‘So as to be the best-dressed wom
an present, of course,' she said.”
NOT THE TIME FOR THAT
8ootsmen Objected to Mixture of Good
Whisky and Religious Con
versation.
Owen Seaman, editor of Punch, was
the principal guest at a dinner of the
London Authors' club recently, which
was followed by a discussion on
“Humor." Mr. Seaman began with a
story deprecating the spoiling of good
dinners by any discussion at all,
Thero were three characters In tho
story—a bluebottle and two Scots
men. The story nt once struck a note
of probability by showing the Scots
men drinking whisky. The^bluebotUe
buzzed ou the pane; otherwise si
lence reigned.
This was broken by one of tho
Scotsmen trying to locate tho blue
bottle with zoologlcnl exactitude. Said
tho Scotsman:
“Sandy, I'm thinking if yon fly Is n
birdie or a beastlo."
The other replied: "Man, don’t spoil
good whisky with religious conversa
tion."
TINY BABY’S PITIFUL CASE
“Our baby when two months old
Was suffering with terrible oezoma
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked Just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothe*
on her. At first it seemed to be a few
mattered pimples. They woujd break
tho skin and pool off leaving tho un
derneath skin rod as though It were
scalds. Then a few more pimplos
would appear and spread aH over tho
body, leaving (ho baby all raw without
ekin from hoad to foot. On top of hor
head thero appeared a heavy scab a
quarter of an Inch thick. It was aw
ful to see so small a baby look as she
did. Imagine! Tho doctor was afraid
to put his hands to tho child. We
tried several doctors’ remedies but all
failed.
“Then we decided to try Cutlcura.
By using the Cutlcura Ointment we
softened the scab and It came off. Un
der this, where tho real matter was,
by washing with the Cutlcura Soap
and applying tho Cutlcura Ointment,
a new skin soon appeared. We also
gave baby four drops of the Cutlcura
Resolvent three times dally. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining a little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby Is four months old. Sho is a fine
picture of a fat little baby and all
Is well. We only used one cake of Cutl
cura Soap, two boxes of Cutlcura Oint
ment and one bottle of Cutlcura Re
solvent. If people would know what
Cutlcura Is there would be few suffer
ing with eczema. Mrs. Joseph Koss-
mann, 7 St. John’s Place, Ridgewood
Heights, N. Y., Apr. 30 and May 4, ’09.”
8URE.
“The Wish Is Father to the Thought.”
Dr. Robert L. Waggoner, the presi
dent of Baldwin university, said, in
the course of an address on pedagogy
at Berea, O.:
“And one of the most remarkable
changes in the last 30 years of teach
ing is the abolition of corporal pun
ishment. A boy of this generation is
never whipped. But a boyi of the last
generation—well! ”
Doctor Waggoner smiled.
“The boys of the last generation,”
he said, “must have believed that
their instructors all had for motto:
“ ‘The swish is father to the
taught.’ ”
Worth Remembering.
“One of the delegates to the conven
tion of the Negro Business Men’s
league in New York was worth
$4,000,000.”
“Here's a pointer for the colored
brother.”
“Let’s have it.”
“That delegate didn’t make his
money shooting craps.”
