Chicago Hopes TO Establish a Plant to
Rivnl Pittsburg and Wheeling.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.,
CHICAGO, August pa stock company
is about to be organized for the manufact-
ure at Chicago of wire nails. A tract of go
acres of land has been secured in desira-
Bile manufacturing locality, and if
there is no slip in the plans of its
projectors the scheme will be fully
under way within the next four weeks. AS
usual in such cases, the parties who are
putting up the money do not desire their
names to be known at this stage of their
progress. Mr.. E. NJ. Kirkland, who is
acting as sort of promoter" of the en-
terprise, says that in a very short time
Chicago will have the largest wire nail
plant in the country. 1t will give employ
ment to several hundred workmeu, and will
produce a nail superior in quality to those
now in use, and about % per cent cheaper
1t is manufactured by duplex machine of
very simple construction, with about one
third greater capacity than the nail
machines now in use, and so easily worked
that the operator need not be skilled work
man at all.
The principal reason for locating the
factory here is said to be in order to have
the supply close to the doors of the whole
sale hardware men and the heavy consumers
whose business centers in this city. If it is
successful the mill will manufacture, not
only ordinary nails. but railroad spikes and
similar articles at will, and it hopes to en-
joy great advantage over Eastern nail
makers from the fact that it will be nearer
the Western market, and will not be subject
to the delays which are frequently caused
by the temporary inability of Eastern rail
ways to forward west-bound freight
promptly.

Ii the grangers' bill was not passed the
Republican Legislature had passed laws
last winter which were of great advantage to
owners of real estate. 1t had increased the
annual school appropriation 81 OOO. 900 a
year, and had diverted large portion of
the liquor license tax TO the counties. The
farmers could calculate how much these
measures would relieve them in lessening
local taxation.

IT is now in order to keep the i'm
provement of our public roads promi-
nently before the people, and particu-
larly before the newly elected men,
bers of the General Assembly. When
this body meets it should give this
question profound consideration. No
other question will come before them
during the entire session of more im~
portance. A law should be passed
which will insure the betterment of
public roads all over the state. The
act submitted by the road congress
which assembled in Nashville last
August we believe is a good one, but
it may be susceptible of improve
ment if so let it be done. Much of
the time and money thrown away on
our public roads under the present
slipshod system is simply wasted, in
many cases the roads are even made
worse, and only in exceptional cases
are the roads really improved. With
business-like system, and under
proper management, with the same
amount of money and labor that is
now annually expended on our pub
lie roads, they can be vastly improv>
ed. Every member elect to the Gen
eral Assembly should give the ques-
ton earnest, thoughtful study, and
go to Nashville prepared to act and
vote intelligently upon the subject.

IRVING COLLEGE.

Irving College, Nov. IL, 1S9O.-Now
that the election is over and the vic
tory gained, everybody is ready to
drop back into the regular channel
where his daily avocation requires
him.
Yesterday was the day for the
show; and as there is always enough
people everywhere ready to spend
their money for them, Collins River,
being no exception to the rule, fur
nished its quote of visitors.
Miss Mary Etter returned from
McMinnville yesterday, where she
had been staying with friends and
relatives a few days. She was ac-
companied by Mr.. Jas. Moffitt and
his fair young bride.
Mr.. Emery Nunley, Of Texas, of
"The Latter Day Saints" persuasion
preached at Hebron Sunday evening.
Mr.. Nunley has been visiting rela-

return to his home in Texas soon.
Last Saturday night the great heart
of Collins River Democracy over
flowed and there was a genuine out
burst of joy and gladness at the vic
tory of their party, which, according
to reports up to that time seemed lit
tie short of a revolution. Old men,
young men, boys, large and small,
assembled themselves at a suitable
place near the residence of w. d,
Hill, armed with 20 or % doubled
barrel shot guns, and saluted the
whole neighborhood with several
rounds of "thunderin' guns" inter.
spersed with lusty yells and screams
which are characteristic only of brave
men who have done their whole duty
and won the victory.
Some sort of a demonstration of the
kind seemed irrepressible. l believe
you would have succeeded about as
well in turning Collins river the con
trary direction, as you would in try
ing to suppress it. 1t was generally
conceded that the following, though
not gotten up in eloquent style, woult
be suitable epitaph for Evans polit
ical grave.
