He did not have much luck in his efforts to get Chief Beavers to let up, according to reports of that se cret conference that have leaked out, so he has thrown hi* support to the Councilmen who are working through the Police Commission.

NASHVILLE MAYOR GREAT PROSPERITY On “Wide Open” Platform He Runs Away From Cooper and Judge Meeks, tfASHVILLE, TENS'., Sept. 12.— Hilary JO. Howne, present Mayor of this city, will be returned to office In the first election held under the now’ commission form of government by an estimated majority of 560 votes over his two opponents. Cooper and Meeks, after one of the bitterest and most sensational mayoralty cam paign* ever witnessed in Nashville. Howse was elected on a platform promising not to disturb the present wide-open condition. Howse worked with a wonderful organization and completely snowed under the law enforcement candidate, Cooper, who ran second, and who was just as far ahead of Circuit Judge Meeks, who was practically forced into the race by friends of ex- Oovemor Malcolm R. Patterson, fol lowing the latter’s alleged "framed" arrest a short time ago in a disorder ly house. A remarkable boldness was mani fested by both Meeks and Howse In bidding for the saloon vote, Criminal Judge Neil threatening to close every saloon in the city unless his candi date, Meeks, was elected. The saloon element ignored this threat and threw its support to Howse, who had made a threat similar to that of Nell. Both Meeks and Cooper are claim ing wholesale frauds and declare they will contest the election. Women workers were prominent at the polls and numerous prayer meet ings were held throughout the city during the dav in the interest of Cooper. Despite such intense bitterness as has been manifested during the cam paign. the election was remarkable for its quietness, only a few minor difficulties being reported. Illinois Democratic Leader, in At lanta on Visit, Gratified by Tariff Reform.

Declaring Democracy is gaining strength throughout the country and that all that is needed now is re adjustment following tariff reform. Charles Boeschenstein, Democratic National committeeman from Illinois, who is a visitor n Atlanta. Frday pre dicted a time of great prosperity. Mr. and Mrs. Boeschenstein arrived in Atlanta Thursday, following a trip to Gainesville, where they placed their daughter in Brenau College. Mr. Boeschenstein speaks with au thority on the national political situa tion. as he Is recognized as a keen political student. In recognition of his services politically in Illinois he probably will be the party’s candidate for United States Senator in next year’s direct election# to fill the va cancy to be created by the close of the term of the Republican Senator, Sherman. Mr. Boeschenstein scouted the idea of a panic as a result of the enact ment of Democratic tariff. The Dem ocratic party in Illinois, he declared, is stronger than it was last year, which is indicative of continued Dem ocratic success throughout the coun try. Mr. Boeschenstein was delighted with Atlanta, and expressed great surprise at what he termed the re markable development of highways in Georgia, as well as elsew'here in the South. The only weak point in the convict system, he says, is lack of co-ordina tion. Mr. Boeschenstein w’as the guest of nark Howell and Governor Slaton Thursday. Who says Romance is dead?
