drew the petition inserted the WoIh
necessary" before the word "sbops'
intending thereby to strengthen the
agreement whereby the real and nee
essary shops OF the Company were TO
be built in johnson City, and by the
word necessary to satisfy every man
that it was no "buncombe" agreement,
but real one, intending to mean
what shops were necessary for the
company should be built under that
agreement.
Some OF the citizens OF Johnson
City in some inexplainable way mis-
construed the word necessary" and
held meeting, adopting resolutions
that the petition for the election and
re-vote of the subscription must con-
form to the petition for the vote in
February, 1889.
In addition to the assurance from
the management of the East Tennes-
see, Virginia & Georgia Railroad that
they would build station in the vi
cinity OF the old or present station, !
gave paper agreeing to leave $4,000
OF the bonds which were to be placed
in trust with the Trustee until the
above referred to depot was construct
ed.
understand that the idea OF grant
ing this request of our Company, to
re-vote the subscription, is meeting
with some opposition do not be-
lieve that the better portion OF the
community or even amajority of the
voters will oppose it, but it requires II
three-quarter affirmative vote to carry.
do not understand that the people
are making any demands for further
concession on the part of our railroad,
but simply desire the petition chang.
ed to conform with that of February
29rd, 1889, and thereby eliminate the
word necessary" from it.
If this will meet the wishes of the
people of Johnson City, | would ad-
wise that petition be prepared cor
responding with that of February 23d
1899, and that the Mayor and Beard
of Aldermen and Council be request
ed to substitute it for the one present,
ed in November.
If further demands or copcessions
should be made of our company 10y
the people, would suggest:
1st. That there is such thing az
paying too dearly for the vote of $75,
, 900.
, 2nd That if the people choose tt
, refuse to revote in accordance with
} such petition as | now recommend
. to be forwarded, then they assume
the responsibility OF tae loss Of the ma

Man IL What Womnn Has Mndo Him,


Prof. o. V. Riley, formerly Stato
lsntomologist for Missouri, and now
Entomologist OF tho Department OF
Agriculture, created n sensntion Mt q
CLUB meeting in st. Louis, not long
since. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Miss
Phoebe Couzins, and Belya Lockwood
were among the ladies present. The
subject OF discussion WINS sexual oqual-
lty from scientific standpoint. Prof.
Riley showed how tho male, Mt first in
significant and q latter creation, Ind
developed and grown to position Of
equality by the side OF his female part
ner; hoT this had resulted from nat
ural and especially sexual selection,
tho female always choosing for her
companion tho abandonment and strong
est; how tho female of some species
is 10000 times larger than the male,
and how, in other cases, he il o mere
minute parasite, whom she carries
about as part of her baggage; how
some female spiders are hundreds of
times larger than tho males and how
my lady Archpidan kills her myriads
OF successive husbands, beats them,
and filings their carcasses out into tho
back yard; how, undor the influence of
preference, the males OF mammals and
birds have arisen to physical superior
ity to the females, till tho lion is finer
and stronger than tho lioness, the bull
larger than the COW, the peacock
adorned with gorgeous tail with
which to excite tho admiration of tho
pea hen, and the turkey cook gifted
with self-important strut and AFRO
giant gobble. The inference was that
what whatever man ia lie has been
made through millions of years of sex
uhl preference by tho female of his
own species, and tho anthropoid md
other species from which no haa
sprung, and that it would be unfair
for him to kick down tho ladder by
which he has climbed.
