The brick walk leading to the
Methodist church is fast going to ruin,
caused by the continued washing out
of the ditch. One year ago, FIVE dol>

Very soon, fifty dollars will not. Our

case.

night.
By reference to our State News
column, it will be seen that the wheat
prospect for this year is rather
gloomy. AS in other parts Of the
state, the acreage sown here was less
than usual, and that has been some-
what damaged by the recent hard

RAILWAY NOTES.

Passenger trains on the |. G. road
are run in two sections nearly every
day now. The travel is immense.
Nashville Banner: Since the reduc.
ton of rates on the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga q St. Louis railway the ship
ments of southern bound freight aver
age $50 cars per day.
The Alabama legislature by vote
of 55 to "a defeated "a bill to be en-
titled an act to define and punish unr
just discrimination when committed
by any railroad company or person
owning and operating any railroad in
this state"
A bill has been introduced in the
legislature providing that when the
ascent of a railroad is 1000 feet in
mile every passenger can be charged
so cents, and charge for freight can
be made at 8 cents per 100 pounds.
This is to help out the project Of a
railroad up Lookout mountain.
A Pullman Palace Car Excursion
will leave st. Louis, over the Missouri
Pacific road, on the 18th of February,
for California and the City of Mexico,
tickets good for six months. Rates
for round trip to and from either city,
S11O, double berth on sleeper SIG.
This is rare opportunity to take a
most delightful trip. For further
particulars address L. E. Drake,
Southern Travelling Agent, Nashville,
or o. F. Cantwell, Milan.
The Ohio and Mississippi Railroad
employees vouch for the following sto,
ry: A stock man while looking after
some hogs, discovered three tramps in
the car, snugly slumbering between
the porcines. When routed out the
wayfarers grumbled considerably, and
one said each Of them had crawled. .bsS
tween two hogs to keep warm, know
ing that to beat their way such cold
weather in the ordinary manner they
would suffer intensely, if they did not
freeze. The tramps looked dirtier
than the hogs.

Habitual constipation Is not only
one of the most unpleasant, hut at the
same time, one Of the most injurious
conditions of the human system, and
is hut forerunner of disease, unless
removed. This is usually accom-
plished by the use Of purgatives,
which for the time afford relief, hut
after their immediate effects have
passed they leave the system in a
worse state than before. TO effect a
cure it is necessary that the remedy
used should be one that not only by
its cathartic effect relieves the bowels,
but at the same time acts as tonic,
80 as to restore the organs to a sound,
healthy condition. The Prickly Ash
Biuers will do. 1T removes the cause
and restores health. jan3l>4t

Business Mems Meeting.

At the Business Mems Meeting last
Monday night the f0i,k@lng was
adopted:
MILAN, TENN, Feb. 2, 1885.
Recognizing the fact that equal tax
alton is the foundation of all Justly
raised revenue, and that class legisla-
tion is tyrannical, we deem it unjust;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
meeting, that merchants, bankers, no.
tel and livery establishments, ana all
other callings that are now required
to pay privilege taxes are unjustly
taxed, and that their taxes should be
no more than those of the farmer, the
mechanic, the real estate man, or the
bondholder.
Resolved. further, That it is the
sense of this meeting that the value
use of capital should be regulated like
all other commodities, BY supply and
demand, and that it is to the general
welfare and prosperity of the com>
monwealth of the state of Tennessee
to have the legal rate of interest
equalized, as not to be more opprest
sive to one calling than another.
Resolved, That copy ot these res>
olutions, signed by each member of
this committee, be sent to each of
eur Representatives in the legisla>
ture of the state, and they be
requested to use their influence
and every exertion to bring about a
consummation and equalization Of
the above objects.
