Dr.. Davenport's lecture to the
Giles County Temperance Society
last Friday night was a strong ar
gument for the cause and full of
wit. Owing to other entertain
ments in town his audience was
small, but they were hearty in their
laughter at his Ewitticisms. He
spoke of the hard-headed young Ia
dies who fall in love with dissipated
young men, saying that when q
girl once falls in love with one of
the fellows lyon might as well try
to learn cow to pace as to keep
her from it," She would marry
him if he courted her when ''his
breath smelt so strong of whisky
that you could hang your hat on
It," and though the young man
would wake up in the morning so
dry he could "bite a branch in two
and swallow the upper end" still
his girl would love him. The doc
tor spoke as though he knew all
about this matter-that is the mat
ter of love. The reading by Miss
Mamie Jones and the recitation by
little Laura Grant were good pieces
and well delivered.

We respectfully invite criticism
upon the typographical appearance
of Martin College catalogue, just is
sued from the CITIZEN press. 1t is no
boast to say that the CITIZEN is as
finely equipped for job printing in
the highest style of the art as any
job office in Tennessee, with two or
three exceptions in the cities. We
can do as good work for as little
money as anybody. There are
business men in Giles county, and
even some schools, that send away
for their printing without giving us
a chance for it. They get their
support here, and give theirs to
foreigners. Their business and
patronage is due to some extent to
the CITIZEN in its work of fostering
and building up Giles county and
her institutions and people, and yet
they go outside to give their favors.
There are institutions in Giles kept
up by public subscription and do
nations that neglect home people
when it comes to letting out their
patronage. We are not complain
ing, for we are literally patroRized |
by nearly all of them, but we state
it as a matter of justice and right |
that our home mechanics and PEG
pie ought to be first served by the
men who live upon the public
The Martin College catalogue ex-
hibits not only the sound standing
and advancement of the institution
it advertises, but we submit it as a
sample of CITIZEN handiwork. 1t is
our opinion that the people of any
county ought to withdraw their sup
port from any public enterprise that
sends it's work away from home
while it appeals for home support
itself, and that they should steadily
avoid patronizing a business that is
run in selfishness. There is very
little of this in Giles county and
our object here is to keen If Tins.

cooperate with you In carrying out any wishes
you may express in the matter you are investigat.
Ing, and hope you may feel perfectly free to call
upon me at any time I'm that connection"
MI. j. w. Thompson, the chairman OF the com.
mittee, expressed himself to STAR reporter YES.
terday as highly gratif1ed by the decision OF the
Attorney General relative to the powers of the
District Commissioners. He thought that II
placed the responsibility where it belonged and
the committee as we'll as the citizens could now
1eel assured that the matter OF the detective in.
vest1gation was turned over to the Commissioners
tion. ~
The committee, however. are preparing the eyt.
dence Which has been obtained by them, and the
papers will be submitted to the Commissioners for
tneir action. The big cases have not been ex.
nausted, while the facts in regard to minor mat.
ters are both numerous and damaging. In the
OPINION OF the committee the suspension OF the two
members OF the detective force has had a most
sanitary enect. and they ind that the Opposition
10 ther work Is neither SO impudent or SO aggres-
sive as 1t has been. ee
District Commissioner West this forenoon visited
W. w. Corcoran, esq.,, and took his deposition
leiauve 10 his experience with the detectives OF
tnlS CITY. The nature OF this deposition or state
