uNIoo1's BOOM.
Knoxville will Make an Effort to Pluck
Erwin's Feathers

Erwin's Feathers
The following article from the Knox.
vile Journal Of the It'll inst. reveals the
way the wind blows, and should stimu-
late our neighboring county to renewed
efforts to secure the boom that has been
offered her:
The influx of foreign capital into Ten
nessee is becoming q comment through
out the country, and 1t Is evident that
the bulk of 1t Is seeking East Tennessee,
where there is q surplus of iron, timber
and ceal, which only require capital and
energy to develop the best paying enter
| prises now located in the south. Last
fall q party of lumber men from Michi-
gan came to Knoxville, and at once pro.
ceeded to buy up the better timber dis
tricts of East Tennessee, with the inten.
ton of locating q large mill where most
convenient. Nothing was done however
beyond buying rs million feet Of logs,
until recently and the following, clipped
from the Big Rapids, Michigan Herald,
explains the movements of the company
What is our loss is another's gain
I'VE have reference to the departure In
the near future from ~ midst, of the
Unaka Lumber Co. AS 0 o as the ne.
cessary arrangements can be made, they
intend to move their large plant to East
ern Tennessee, to operate a large body Of
pine and other timbers they have recently
bought there. The people OF the com
munity to which they are going, may
congratulate themselves that they have
the gentlemen composing this COMPANY
interested in their section, as whatever
they agree to they will perform to the
letter. The amount of money that they
will expend, and number Of men thel
will employ, will add greatly to Thu
wealth and prosperity of the country. T,
us here, the extent Of this is fully known
from the fact that our city has been bull
up by such firms as this one. We wisl
them success in their new undertaking.
Among the officers Of this immens,
concern is Mr.. II. B. Wetzell, who is vic
president, and who returned from til,
North last Saturday. He was seen by
Journal scribe and said that 1t had bee,
the intention of locating their mill at En-
win, in Unicoi county, and the compan
would build a narrow gauge road fron
there to johnson City for shipping facili
ties. The mill they intend building wi
be supplied with the best of machiner
and have a cutting capacity of seventy
five thousand feet per day. Since com
ing home Mr.. Wetzell learned of the pre-
posed Knoxville boom company's inteI
tons and says that IL that company wi
/ put in q boom here sufficient TO hand
, their logs and safely, his company wi
change all their plans and locate thei
plant at Knoxville, though 1t will requii
7 a logging of over two hundred miles I
. reach the mill. There is hardly a doul
that Knoxville will have as fine a systel
of booms within the next year as any
; the northern cities, where millions offe,
of timber are sawed each week. I'll
ball is in motion and our city is CROWN
rapidly and wealthy at the same tim
which is a surety that no ~retrograd
movement is likely to set in about Kno.
vile. Bring on the booms.

From q Grateful Heart.

Early 10. October. 1884, l was taken
with ~inflammatory rheumatism so that l
was confined to my bed. and could not
even mCv5 the toes on n of my feet. ]
could not bear TO have my clothes chang
ed or to be handled In anywise. With
all the remedies administered l found no
relief. A friend, seeing the advertise
ment Of s. s. s. as a rheumatic cure, Sc
cured some for me. This was In Febru-
airy, 1885. and after taking six small bot
ties l noticed a change in the feeling of
the limbs, and could turn we In bed al-
most without assistance or pain. After a
dozen bottles had been used, l could
walk on clutches. l am now able TO walk
without crutches, and TO do the cooking
for a family Of four, and nearly all thu
homework. Mrs. FANNIE Il. JAMES.
