Persistent EO0yism.

Jackson Times.l
Some of our so-called "conserv-
ative" people keep crying down
any attempt to improve our public
roads, and they say that the roads
are good enough; that we have
been getting along with them ever
since the country was first settled
and can do SO still. We may just
as well argue that we can get along
with the log houses that were built
when the country was first settled.
We can live with the roads we have,
but it is very poor living. We may
lust as we'll improve our public
roads as our private walks and res
licences. IF it is a necessity to
build new and better houses why
is it not necessary to build better
roads? Other States and other
sections are building them and we
NAV lust as well understand that
we will have to keep up with the
procession. Remember all the
time that good roads save time and
money, bring lands into market,
and enhance the value Of farm
products.

A Valuable Relic.

The following from the Banner of
Saturday will prove interesting TO
the Masons of this city:
"Mr. M. B. Toney received from
Mr.. w. ]. Ely, of GAINESVILLE, yes.
terday, the charter Of the Montgom-
cry Lodge, F. and A. M, issued Oc-
tober 6, 1918. This is the first char
ter ever issued by the Grand Lodge
of Tennessee, and it will be turned
over to the Masonic Library. The
charter is signed by Thomas Clai-
borne, Grand Master; w. Tate, Dep
uty Grand Master; Robert Searcey,
Senior Grand Warden David Irwin,
Junior Grand Warden, and Wilkin
Tannehll, Grand Secretary. The
charter was cancelled by the issuance
of the charter of the GAINESVILLE
Lodge, No. 80. The document shows
its age and is badly torn, and it was
with difficulty that the names and
dates could be read"

MonowaIl,a nafanaa.

Mr.. McDowell's reply to the Amer
lean appeared in yesterdays Banner.
1t makes thirteen columns Of solid
print, and is strong presentation of
his side of the question, at least it
will go long ways in satisfying the
Alliance people, to whom he ingeni-
ously appeals. He brings affidavits
Of men who say they lived in Dtsha
county at the same time he did, and
state that he was openly Democrat
and never affiliated with Republic
cans. He brings testimony that he
was first appointed magistrate by the
governor in the place of a Republi-
can, who resigned because he felt it
was dangerous to hold the Office and
enforce the law. That he joined
with other Democrats in making
Grayson's bond for County court clerk
and that this was by agreement and
custom with the Democrats to make
the negro officers bonds that they
might name the deputy and keep
control of the county affairs, and that
he took charge of the books and Office
only for few days, while Grayson
was trying to secure a competent
deputy that Grnyson did procure
deputy, who was white man and
Democrat. He charges the American
with conspiracy 10 ruin mis- character
and break down the Alliance, and
attacks the Americans witnesses as
immoral, debauched, disreputable
men, who disliked him because
he enforced the law. He es-
tablishes that he was man
OF high moral character, temper
ance advocate who enforced the law
against whiskey sellers and men of
loose morals that he was leading
Baptist and built Baptist church
while there. lie proves very bad
character for some of the Americans
witnesses. M. w. Quilting goes
back on his statement in the Ameri-
can and says ne did not pay much
attention to its wording, which was
not sworn to. Several negro witness
es also retract or deny their state
ments in the American. AS regards
Jehazy Cole, Mcdowell says he did
not go to see him, but two men testi-
fy that Jehazy denies much of the
Americans statement, but sticks to
1t that he can prove by David Cher
ry that Mcdowell did eat with him.
The whole of his defense is devoted
to the Arkansas matter, and not a
word in regard to his Macune letter
that which the pubic is most in
terested in.
The American and Mr.. Mcdowell
between them have proven the
Desha county people an awfully bad,
unreliable set. If Mcdowell is cor
rect they all have to be sworn to
make them tell the truth. The con
troversy, however, is not yet ended.
The American will no doubt have
another say.

FREE BRIDG ES.
How the Situation Appears to Man in
Kansas City.

To the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July II, 1891,
From recent issue of your paper
/ learn that there is doubt in the
minds OF the authorities of Clarks.
Vile as to the ACCESSIBILITY or policy
of building the free bridge over Red
river for the new Pea Ridge road. |
am so greatly surprised that it
prompts me to write and urge that
you renew your efforts in behalf OF
free bridges and more of them.
Your paper certainly has the inter
ests of GAINESVILLE mt heart. 1t has
shown this so thoroughly that l can
not believe an earnest effort on your
part in this most vital matter would
go unhceded by your many inter
ested readers. This must be borne
in mind, however: While the inhab-
itants of Clarksville are, as rule,
endowed with many of the first quail
ifications necessary to constitute good
and loyal citizens, they have relapsed
into lethargy, from which you must
use constant and repeated efforts to
arouse them.
TO one who has seen cities spring
up on almost barren plains in the
West, and, with less than half the
natural advantages of Clarksville,
more than double her in population
in the brief period of ten years, this
seems more than remarkable. Such
things cannot come about by mere
chance. They are the direct result of
causes which are controlled by the
citizens themselves.
1t is true that particular communi-
ties often receive an advantage from
the general trend of public opinion.
This is caused by the concerted ac-
ton of many communities in one
general locality. But this is only
temporary. For some years the
West and North have had an advan-
tage of this kind, but any observant
man can see that the South is now
attracting more attention than either
Of these quarters. 1t is in the favor
ed locality at present, and II you fail
10 take advantage of the opportunity
il is your own fault and folly. The
spirit shown by your committee

To be Reconsidered.

The Monumental Committee de
cided not to have the reunion at the
cave, and concluded to wait until
October and have it at Henry's
grove. Several members, however,
who favored Henry's grove were
discussing the matter the other day
and became satisfied that they had
made a mistake. October is too long
off, and the grove not good place
for such gathering. The idea now is
to have it about Thursday, Aug. goth,
at the cave, and have the unwilling
about Oct. Goth. The question will
be reconsidered at the meeting of the
committee Saturday.

A Row at Cedar Hill.

A row occurred at a negro dance at
Cedar Hill, in Robertson county,
Saturday night, resulting in one
negro being shot to death and several
others wounded. Vena Washington,
a negro woman, was hit by stray
bullet and instantly killed. Chas,
Bell was fatally wounded, it is
thought, and Tillman Manor received
several flesh wounds. The murderers
are Abe Jamison and Washington
Burns, and they are at large.

B. III. Sorry, sheriff of Robertson
