hole in the rock, load it with an ex-
plosive, and when all were ready all
we're to be fired at once, the rock bro
ken into fragments, the debris. removed,
the serpents' nest destroyed and the
serpents scattered, the Inhabitants
from danger. The soil under the rock
being rich and fertile was turned to the
production of useful vegetables and
fruits and the whole park became more
beautiful and rich AID the inhabitants
more peaceful and happy.
Now let the county represent the
United States of America, the park the
state of Tennessee, the animals and
birds the people in their various cOndi-
tions OF strength and weakness, the SER
penis intoxicating liquors, the.rocks the
profit, the money made out of the man
ufacture and sale of the liquors. Those
who saw danger to the people from the
use of alcoholic liquors as beverage
tried first to dissuade them from its
use, and while they did great good as
they learned by observation and expe-
rience, they saw more good could be eff
tected by hamperlng and obstructing
the sale and manufacture of it (they
commenced breaking the rock) by leg
islatiVe enactmentS, all of which did
much good. Still the manufacture and
sale is legal under many restric ions
(much of the rock is broken.) Now the
people have determined to try to pro-
cure an amendment 10 the state con-
stitu ion forever prohibiting its impor-
tation, manufacture and sale as bev-
erage Ito break the rock in piecesj then
and then only will we be able TO destroy
the money power that is in it. Then
we will have to enforce the law (clear
away the fragments) and drunkenness
and its attendant crime and misery will
gradually cease. Now let me ask, and
every one ponder well before answer
ing, is there a sister, brother, mother,
father, lawyer, doctor, preacher, mer-
chant, manufacturer, mechanic, farmer,
laborer, artisan, teacher, hotel keeper,
saloon keepers, distiller, or is there any
one interested in this beautiful park
that has no loved one, no sweet song
ster, whose notes thrill an harmonious
echo in their soul, in danger of these
dreadful serpents? Stop and think be-
fore you decide TO take stand against
this movement and to those who feel
they have loved one in danger sign the
petition drill the hole insthe rock
and when the legislature, as certainly
it will if we show proper earnestness
in memorializing them shall submit the
amendment to be voted upon, let us
| firmly and unitedly vote Tor it (touch
the blast) and the money power that
covers the beverage is gone (the rock is
| broken) then we will have but to see
that the laws are enforced and the Ii
| quOr is gone, the serpents are scattered +,
and peace, prosperity and happiness
will reign throughout our state.

The Temperance Movement

Near the center of one of the richest
and most beautiful countries on the
globe there was a park of immense size
and of great natural beauty and wealth,
covered with a luxuriant growth of
trees, fruits, flowers and all manner of
vegetables, and crossed and recrossed
With walks, drives, roads, railroads and
rivers, and dotted all over with beauti-
full lakes and mountains, and its forests
were filled with all kinds of beasts use
full to man, and the trees with birds
warbliDg their sweet notes. In this
park was rock of immense size and
weight. Under the rock was nest
brooding perpetually poisonous reptiles
which emerged from under the rock in
all directions, and although not at
lacking anything directly, yet slipping
silently through the grounds and when
ever touched by accident or friendly as
ISOLATION they would strike with sick
eniug and deadly poison, so that the
park became marred with sick animals
and dead carcasses and the birds were
also charmed by their serpentile mag
netism until they fell victims to the
charmer. The serpents became so nu-
merous, ublesome and dangerous to
the salty and health OF the inhabitants
of the park that owners were trout led
and began to devise means to avoid the
evil effects of the serpents, They first
tried to keep the inhabitants from asso-
ciating with the serpent, succeeding
partially. They then commenced at
lacking the serpents hid under the
rock. They then commenced breaking
fragments of the rock, but not being
able to reach the next they then deter
mined to break the rock in pieces, and
various plans were suggested, but
whether the best one or not, the one
adopted was for every one who felt that |
there was danger to anything they val .
ued or loved from the serpents to drill I

Spencer Head was foulIy muir
dered near Williamsport, Maury
county, last week. His family left
him at home visiting a village en-
tertainment. His mother-in-law, a
very aged lady, accompanied by a
young lady, at II O'clock at night
heard a noise and went to his room,
discovered HIM undressed and dead,
lying on his back in the fire badly
burned. The floor was spotted
with blood and hair on the side of
the place. There is no doubt that
he was foully murdered. His two
sons murdered two negroes two
years ago, which is supposed to be
cause of his tragic death. His MUIR
der. occurred two years to a day
from the time of killing the last
negro.

There is a pressing demand for a
great enlargement of the public
school fund of this state. 1t is ri
dicGlOusly small, and utterly inca

originators had in view, as at
present the public fund for educa

pay teachers for more than three or

that will achieve that result, will
