See Democratic ticket in large type
on first page. This is the ticket you

O. K. Holladay qualified as a candi
date for re-election as a member of the
County Board of Education for the dis
trict of which the First Civil district ia
a part.
Every nominee of the Democratic
party in Putnam county plainly state?
the fact on his cards. They are proud
to be known as Democrats and honor
ed by their party.
Four candidates qualified for the of
fice of Constable in the First district,
there are two to elect. The candi
dates are S. S. Shaw, J. M. Lee, R. N.
King and Byrd Davis.
Not one Republican candidate for
office in Putnam county ha the fac'
that he is the nomln -e of that party
on hig cards. Are they ashamed of
their party, or just running as non
partisan candidates?
It expected that the Panama Ca
nal will be ready for use and opened
to the traffic of the world on August
15th. The . work Is complete except
the dredging made necessary by a land

More than thirty states now have
Democratic governors, and the nation
al government is in Democratic hands.
Tennessee should g etback in line. Ev
ery Democrat In the state should feel
it his duty to work to this end.
The Herald had nothing to say a
gainst the Republican and Independent
candidates in Putnam county. They
are'all our friends,. arid gentlemen.
From our standpoint they are on the
wrong ticket and will be beaten.
' Vote for all tbe Democratic nomi
nees. We cannot all secure the nomi
nation of our choice, but when the
nominations are made 't is the duty of
' all Democrats to vote the ticket. There
Is no good reason why this should not
toe done.
Senator Luke Lea has announced
tola readiness to name a United States
marshal for Middle Tennessee to vice
J. W. Overall, who resigned a year a

Lea to wait a while longer before an

Bob Rash has been Sheriff one
term and has made a good record. In
fact he is one of the most efficient
sheriffs in the state. This ia a two
year office, and this fact should be
considered. Mr. Rash has made good
Give him an opportunity to make a
little money by re-electing him.
The voters are warned to look out
for campaign circulars, and lies during
the last few days of the campaign and
for bogus tickets on election day.
Such tactics ard usually the last resort
of candidates who believe themselves
defeated. - Pay no attention to wild
tales from now on, and see that your
ticket is right.
The Cookeville Press is to be re
newed after lying dormant for several
months. J. W. Coop-r & Son of Co
lumbia will conduct the business. We
understand "the first issue will appear
this week. We' welcome the Messrs.
Cooper to Cookeville and extend them
the usual greeting of the craft. Here's
hoping they may become millionaires,
bloated bond holders and plutocrats.
During a political campaign it is
customary for newspapers to publish
matter for any candidate who is will
ing to pay for the space. A newspaper
sells advertising space as a merchant
sells goods. Paid articles in the Her
ald are marked at the end "Advt."
For .the e articles the publishers are
not responsible, and frequently do not
endorse. 11
Robert Burrow is the nominee of the
Democratic party for Judge of the su
preme court, and should receive the
! vote of every Democrat in the . state,
He is competent to fill the high posit
ion with honor, and will add strength
lo the bench if elected. His election
will be a serious blow to the Republi-
cans; will make easier the election of
Mr. Rye and increase his majority at
the November election.
Judgo Will'ams having been born
into t' e kingdom of independence by
the laying on of hands by the patron
saint of that cult; having sat for more
t an a year under the drippings of the
sanctuary of Hooperism; having im
b'bed the sacred truths taught by
Prophet Stahlman, and having been
nominated by the Republican party for
a position on the supreme court bench,
feels capable of preach'ng the doctrine
of non-partisanship with proper unc
tion. Moral: Vote for Robert Bur
row.
Chairman Beasley of the Republican
state committee has sent out letters
over the tae which plainly show how
non-partisan he considers the candida
cy of Judge Williams for the supreme
court. He says that had It not been
for Judge Williams vote in the elec
t'on law case the Republican party
would be permanently overthrown In
Tennessee. He then adds: "He holds
the office py virtue of the appointment
by Gov. Hooper. He Is the nominee
of the Republican party in this state.
A vote for Sam C. Williams la a vote
to sustain the administration of Gov.
Hooper." This is nonpartisan talk
to a finish,
STANTON A SURE WINNER
The fight S. S. Stanton Is making
for Democracy in this, our own na
tive county, does much credit to the
memory of his father, Col. Sidney S.
Stanton, whose bravery and valor as
a Confederate soldier is the proud
heritage of all. We are glad, how
ever, that the present disturbance is
but a political conflict; yet, we. are
reminded that tne humblest In the
ranks may achieve distinction.
OLD SOLDIER.
A FINE RECORD
D. E. Slagle has made a reputation
unsurpassed in Putnam county as one
of the most untiring, faithful and loy
al supporters of the Democratic tic
ket. Being defeated three times by a
bare majority, he always volunteered
his services for the nominees. And
in the) fourth race in an honest, fair
contest was nominated for Trustee
by a handsome majority over four re-
spectab'e aspirants. ;.
Mr. Slagle is capable and worthy in
every respect. He has been an- ac-
t've member of the church and Sun
day school for about three years, be
longs to 'our lodges, Knights of Py
thias, Odd Fellows, M. W. of A., and
Farmers Union. Rally to his support
Aug. 6, and elect him Trustee, which
he deserves and is Ju tly and honest
