Friends, what is the reason we
have not a Sunday school at Shoal

are not enough of us? Surely not.
for there are II families that live in
one mile and a half of the church
and will average three to the fami-
ly all able to attend Sunday school.
Then is it because we are not com
petent to carry on one? 1t cannot
be that, for we have some of as well
qualified men and women as there
are anywhere. Is it because we are
not all Of the same faith and Orderi

that will shine brighter than gold.

Tennessee Held Liable.

The supreme court of the United
States last Monday affirmed the de-
cision of the lower court holding
the railroads not liable upon the
bonds issued by Tennessee to aid
in their construction. The decision
was very lengthy and able, deliv-
cred by the chief justice, Justice
Harlan alone dissenting. 1t settles
finally and unquestionably all the
matters in dispute between the fac
items in Tennessee, this being the
foundation stone of dispute. This
does not undo the settlement since
agreed upon and the funding will go
on we suppose. The CITIZEN has
never doubted that this would be
the final decision. 1t is a complete
vindication Of sky-blue principles,
and no demagog can have the eff
frontery to deny it. We never
doubted the final result, and neither
have we doubted that the final
thought of the people upon this
question would be right and just.
1t takes hard work sometimes to
head off the demagogs and extract
the poisons they inject into the pop
ular mind. Everything has gone
against them lately and they have
suffered in body and spirit-their
World dying and their bosses "sot
back" This matter can no longer
be a question in politics, but it re,
fleets some mighty truths and ena-
bles US to see things more clearly
and to judge men and their motives
better.
