The Mutual Endowment COLLAPSE

Considerable Unnecessary "boo'
has been made over a very small
affair in Pulaski during the past
week. The reader remembers the
notice the CITIZEN made two weeks
age of . peculiar plan of mutual
insurance being worked in Pulaski
by Col. J. T. Whitehead. He wrote
up some $4,000 here and collected
FROM about twenty persons about
$500. The day after he left tele-
gram in the daily papers announced
the collapse of the company at FIT,
Worth, Texas. Some of our PEG
pie thought they had been swim
died and Mr.. Skillern followed Col.
Whitehead TO Birmingham. He
found that the news of the break
was a greater surprise to Col.
Whitehead than to US. He came
ba ok on the aext train and made
satisfactory settlement with the
parties here. He had sent the mon
ey to the Company but it had not
received it before the break and it
will be returned to him, and his
proposition to pay back halt the
money in five days and the balance
in fifteen days was accepted. At a
full meeting Of the applicants Tues
day night a resolution was passed
generating Col. Whitehead from
any motive to sWindle, SO far as
they know, and declaring that in
all his conduct and dealings here
he appeared to be a gentleman.
The company, it seems, was divided
into sections that operate in differ
ent states. 1t was the Texas sec
ton that failed and it is claimed
that the others are sound. There
were many absurd, exaggerated and
amusing rumors afoat. 1t was in
ferred in Nashville and elsewhere,
from the Americans reports, that
it was kind of marriage associa-
ton affair and that our people were
taken in and severely done up by a
sharper-that 1t was a kind of prov
iGential visitation on Pulaski for
her marriage association sins. At
Murfreesboro it was thought he got
away with several thousand dollars
and the writer heard our people
made the butt of many cruel jibes
and derislve criticisms. Now that
the affair has petered down to
ordinary dimensions and satisfac-
tory settlement is promised, the sen
sational glamour with which it was
painted fades into tallow- candle
tint. Columbia will not do so well.
Her money got into the vortex be-
for the bottom tell out.

The Farmers Association

Met in the county court room
Saturday, the subject, Education OF
Farmers, was presented in an able
paper by DR.. Harwell in which he
showed that agricultural knowledge
should commence in the common
schools. I. o. Alternately advocat-
ed the establishing of agricultural
colleges. Mr.. S. p. White and 9th
ers favored the dissemination Of ag-
ricultursl knowledge to the masses
that could not be reached by col
leges.
The importance of better corn
culture and better commercial corn
was brought up. To encourage the
improvement and to find the best
varieties it was decided TO have a
corn show at next meeting, the 3rd
Saturday in January, t. o. Aber-
nathy offers a pure bred berkshire
pig worth $40 for % best ears white
corn; the association So in cash for
second best. The corn shown to be
the property of the association after
shown. The premiums are open
to every Giles county farmer. We
hope to see corn from every part of
the county.

For Every Home,

The Youths Companion was the de-
light of our childhood, and has been
for years the weeks treasure OF our
children. 1t is the best child's paper
we have ever seen. We say this a.lvis-
edly, after having tiied the various
high-priced magazines for children.
The variety, beauty, and entertainment.
of the articles that sappear in the
Youths Companion excite our constant
wonder and delight.
In our home the day OF its arrival Is
known as "Youth's Companion day"
and the only bad eject we have ever
known To arise from its coming is that
all the children, and the older folks
too, for that matter, want it at the same
time. The publishers ure out with a
new announcement showing increase d
attractions tor the new year. ~ $I.7j

Senator Harris Calls a Halt.

Senator Harris calls halt on the
railroad wreckers in Tennessee, 60
ing even further than most men in
the opposite direction. He is a
member of the senate committee on
interstate commerce and they have
gone all over the country and sum
moned all classes of men to give
testimony before them, and now he
declares himself unable to solve the
question. What a difference! 1t
was held in Tennessee that three
ordinary men could be picked up
and placed over the railroads and
learn in a few weeks all the hidden
mysteries in the science of railway
management, and now comes the
tallest apostle of the tribe and says
he could not learn it in a search over
the whole country and in months of
patient study. The senator is sound
and wise in this. We suppose his
opinion now sounds the end of the
wrecking movement in Tennessee.
Hear him:
when we first began our inqui-
ry made up my mind upon GER
tain points, and felt that had the
correct solution of the whole mat
ter. Then l would meet some expe-
rienced and practical railroad man
and in about ten minutes talk he
would take all the under pinning
out of my legislative structure, and
I'd feel all at sea again. Then I'd
start to build again, and about the
time l felt that 1 saw the proper
course to be adopted in settling the
question, the same thing would
happen again, until now 1 don't
feel as if knew half so much about
the matter as when l first began
the investigation. The whole sub
ject is a bunch of complexities, and
as the railroad interest is such a
vast one as to aggregate one-f1fth
of the whole wealth of the country,
any legislation affecting their in
terests must be very cautious.
Rates cannot be fixed by legisla-
ton. What can be done is to say
that the roads shall publish their
rates and stick to them until they
are changed by due notice be
ing given. They will tend to break
up railroad wars, and will be bene-
fetal to the companies as well as to
the patrons. Then the practice of
companies charging, in many cases,
more for a short haul than for a
long haul must, be prohibited, 50
that in no case the aggregate rate
for the long haul shall be less than
the rate to any intervening point on
the road. But, as 1 said before,
legislation must be very slow, so
that no mistakes be made.

Mr., Tilden's Letter,

Mr.. Tilden has addressed long
letter to Speaker Carlisle urging up
on congress the necessity for re-
rebuilding our coast defenses. He
says they are totally inadequate to
withstand modern attack and that
as long as we remain thus weak for
eign countries will hear with dis
dain any demand we may have to
make and we thus put ourselves in
the way of being sighted or dam
aged; that we are practically una
BILE to enforce the Monroe doctrine,
and that the present aggressive
grabbing of foreign countries and
sections by the powers of Europe
makes it necessary for US to pre-
pare to defend that principle at any
moment. He says the spending of
this surplus in the treasury now
will throw the money into trade
channels, will give work to thous-
ands of men, and will boom the iron
interests which lie at the very bot
tom of the country's prosperity, and
thus trade revival ensnes and the
country resumes at once normal
prosperity.

VIM. II. Vanderbilt Drops Dead.


The great millionaire Wander
bilt dropped dead Tuesday win
paralysis due to the sudden burst
ing Of a large blood vessel at the
base of brain, land death was instan-
taneous and painless. 1t was about
2 80 o'clock and he was engaged in
an animated talk with Robert Gar
rett, the railroad magnate, upon
business topics. The news spread
rapidly and of course occasioned
universal comment. A slight de-
preston in the stocks he held prin-
cipally followed but business does
not feel it. He left four sons and
four daughters. His oldest sons,
Cornelius, aged 40, and VIM. K.
will continue to manage his affairs
for which they have been trained.
lie was worth perhaps 100000, 900,
mostly in stocks $50, 100000 in
government bonds, He did not in
vest in real estate, holding that it
really belongs to the government
and the owner is only a tenant.
The funeral will occur to morrow.
