(Nashville. American.)
non. M, K. Patterson, candidate for
overnor from Shelby county, opened
his campaign with an address at the
Yendome Theater Thursday night. A
larjje and enthusiastic crowd tilled the
theater. It was a representative body
of people, composed of men of public
aud private life,froni Nashville aud va
rious parts of the state, and ot many
ladies. Mr. Tntteison and his party
met at the Maxwell House and pro
ceeded together to the theater. As the
gubernatorial candidate entered he was
greeted with hearty applause, which
oontiuueil at intervals through the ad
dress. Those attending Mr. Patterson were
representative W. P. Crotzer.of Dick
son county; E. L. Iliukle of Robertson
county; Attorney General R. L. Teck,
of Robertson county; Senator Wikle,
of Williamson county; Senator Mc-
Murray.county; former Representative
Moore, of Davidson county; M. P. Es-
tes, Davidson county; ex-Qov. McMil-

county; Judge Bell, of Gallatin; Eon.

Clarksville; George L. Phillips, of
Davidson county; Henry Morrow, of
Nashville; W. S. Whitaker and H. L.
Palmer, of Mnrfreesboro, and Litton
Pardue, of Cheatham county.
Mr. Patterson was introdued byE.
P. Richardson, of Nashville, who said
that Mr. Pattorson's address protended
much for the success of "Tennessee,
which his administration would as
suredly bring. Mr. Richardson con
demned the political machine, which,
he said existed in the state, and that it
should be condemned by all and ex
tinguished.
Mr. Patterson spoke for two .hours
and ten minutes, holding his audience
well. Hiss address follows.
mk. Patterson's speech.
I thank yon most sincerely for thia
cordial welcome you have given me.
But I am sure this magnificent as
somblage, represented as it is by the
best citizenship, by the brain and
brawn of the sterling men and demo
crats' of his historic city, bo rich iu
memories which link the present to the
past, is not so much a personal compli
ment, as it signifies an interest in the
principles which Lrepresent iu a con
test of great importance to the people
of Tennessee.
Three pleasant years of my youth
were spent iu Nashville as a student at
Vanderbilt University, that great in
stitution of learning that has done bo
much for the cause of higher education
iu the south. As a democratic candi-
late for governor, and it being my first
speech of the campaign, I may be par
doned for personal references, not made
in the spirit of boast, but in order that
the people may know what official po
aitiou I hold and whether my record
has been clean aud capable, whether I
have been true or untrue to public
trust.
I have been nominated and elected
by the democratic party to two lm
portant offices, the first as attorney
general of Shelby county, which poei
tion I held Bix years, and from which
resigned after the nomination and be
fore my eleotiou to congress in 1900.
When I announced as a candidat
for governor I coupled with it a deolin
ation to again become a candidate for
congress, blieving that no man had
right to ruu for two oflicos at the same
time, though I had every assurance of
the continued confidence of of my con
stituents, and that I could have receiv
ed their endorsement agaiu, just as
they had given it in the past.
I invite investigation aud scrutiny of
my official conduct whether engaged in
the prosecution of crime, in the largest
county of the state, involving great la
bor and responsibility, or as represent
ing a constituency, the equal of any in
intelligence and patriotism, as a mem
ber of the National House of Repie
seutatives. As such I have tried not onty to rep
resent the immediate wishes of my con
stituency, but what I considered to be
the hat aspirations aud traditions of
the people of the south, and of tl e
whole country.
The absured if not malicious charge
has been made that my candidacy has
beeu inspired by an ulterior purpose to
injure a candidate for the United States
senate.
If this charge is made in good faith
those who make it must believe that I
would knowingly and willfully commit
an act of extreme folly against my own

To be loved.
To be told so sometimes.
To have something to do.
To be dealt with sincerely.
To be praised onco in a while.
To have her judgment respected.
To be sympathetically understood.
WOMAN'S WANTS-(Answers to the
Above.)
All she wants is love, you Bay?
That shows how much you know;
She wanls to Bee the matinee
And to the ci: cis go;
She wants a handsome diamond ring, .
She wants a rope of pearls;
She wants a poodle on a string,
She wants some extra curls;
She wants a bonnet twice a year,
She wants an Euster hat;
She wants to read her titlo clear
Unto a stylish flat;
She wants a four-seat motor car
She wanrs a real Worth gown;
She wants a trip to Europe, or
At least to Newport town ;
She wants a cask of rare cologne,
She wants a diamond pin;
She wants a carriage of her own
To go out calling in;
She wants the earth, the Milky Way,
And half the stars above,
And yet yon have tho nerve to Bay
That all she wa ,t3 is love!

"Embezzlement" is the word used

"Thief" is the word employed by J.

misuses his power for personal profit.
