When the voters of Tennessee go to the polls tomorrow to cast their ballots for can didates in the primaries they will rind on the ticket for the senatorial nomi nation in the Democratic party the name of Noah W. Cooper. Mr. Cooper, n his own words, is "not running in ;his race for the senate against any body but Satan and all his works." "We have such a big job in Ameri ca to beat the devil that we have but ittle time to fight each other," Mr. Jooper declared in speeches delivered .o Tennessee audiences. His platform le told the voters, "is but a part of he old time religion which kept Ameri a in partnership with God and which nust be put into our national life to ave us fro niruin." He advocated use j! the Golden Rule as the solution l;jr ndustrial problems. Mr. Cooper said that if elected he vouid carry to the United States sen ate ninetj'-six gourds, similar to the "Gourd of Righteousness" given him jy members of the Women's Christian Temperance Union as "a symbol" of heir wish that we might all join har.d;3 md hearts and votes to help America juit drinking with Satan from thepoi on pots of death and to drink anaw vith the' God of our fathers from' the icaling; fountains of eternal truths." "There will be one for every sena or," the candidate announced. "It will emind them that we must get right ,vith God in order to get right with ach other and bind the world in uni ersal brotherhood." Mr. Cooper opposed war as "an in iult to Christianity'' and urged strict .bservance of the Sabbath. "America was born and bred a, Sab path keeping nation," he declared. "All mr early customs and laws provided hat all government and industrial bus ness for profit should stop on Sunday. Jpon that rijiet our nation grew great, 'iut now Atiierica has become a Sab ath breaking nation.. Our capital city if Washington and our great inter .tate commerce, the biggest in the vorld, ha3 been captured by the devil f Sabbath breaking. And congress ir..i consented to it.' The devil laughs ind God 'f'rowsn to witness our nation jrostituting the Sabbath , to unholy purposes. "If our nation were, to license steal ng, lying or murder, we should think t mighty bad. Yet our nation is prac ically licensing Sabbath breaking in very line of commerce, and it is just is sure to ruin our nation, as that God ives unless we have religion enough ,o stop it. The Bible, fells us oyer md over that the prostitution of the Sabbath, to unholy purposes will bring God's Wrath upon any nation.. Israel, France and Germany went to ruin that way. The Lutheran preachers told Germany that her Sabbath breaking, jnless soon stopped, would soon ruin her. Germany broke the Sabbath until they were riunning every known btisi-, nass every day and Sunday too. Then they broke into, hell . and the aping world was dragged with them.
