Build manufactures and McMinn-
vile will soon grow to water works.
New Era.
Build water works and they will
invite manufactures.
We call attention to the adver-
tisement of Frank Owens, dealer in
furniture, mattresses, etc, 22S North
College Street, Nashville, to be found
in this paper. The house carries a
large stock Of every kind of furniture,
and will make it to the interest of
both dealers and consumers to call
on them. Mr.. A. M. st. John, for
merly of this county, is now perma>
nently with the house, and will be
glad to have his acquaintance call on
him when in Nashville.
Mr.. w. H. Sugar will be assist
ant postmaster under Mr.. A. H.
Faulkner. Both Of these gentlemen
are now daily assisting at the post
office in handling the mails in order
to get the run of things and be famil-
lar with the work when the new
postmaster takes charge. Right here
it will not be out of order for us to
suggest that Mr.. Faulkner place in
the postoffice new and modern out
fit of lock boxes and postoffice furni-
ture. The present old boxes and
cases have been in use ever since the
town was small village, and do not
present an appearance in keeping
with the progressive spirit of our
town.

The city ana the Electric Light
Plant.

1t seems never to have occurred to
our correspondent of last week, Tax
Payer, and the Era, that the city
might buy our present electric light
plant. OF course everybody knows
that two electric plants would not pay
in town the size of McMinnville,
but we assert without fear of success
full contradiction that one plant, ju-
diciously managed, will pay. The
purchase of the electric light plant by
the city, to be run in connection with
the proposed system Of water works,
was suggested on the superstition that
it could be so run at very little addi-
ton expense over the cost of opera
ting water works alone, and that the
revenue therefrom would materially
aid the city in paying for the water
works. Tax Payer says the stock
holders have never realized a cent on
their electric light stock, but he can
not deny that somebody is making
money out it. The receipts of the
McMinnville Electric Light Co., are
approximately two thousand dollars
year. AS carbons are cheap now,
there is bound to be very neat profit
somewhere in operating the rlant.
In order for the city to own and OPP
crate an electric light plant, however,
Legislative action would have to be
had, consequently that feature is re-
moved from any connection with a
water works proposition for the next
two years at least.

Death of Nh. Conner.

Mr.. Thos. Conner died at the home
of his son-in-law, Mr.. VIM. White,
in this place at S:15 p. m. Sunday,
April 9Th, aged "A years, . months,
and Is days.
Mr.. Conner had been a resident of
McMinnville for nearly sixty years.
He was a man of whom it could be
truly said that he was a good citizen
in the broadest, fullest sense of the
term. Quiet and unassuming in
manner, he was highly esteemed by
every one who knew him for many
excellent traits of character. His
wife preceded him to the better
land only a few years ago. Mr.. Co.
mer had been rapidly failing in
health for several months, and his
death was not unexpected. The fun
eral occurred Monday afternoon, with
services at the residence by Rev. J.
r. Curry and DR.. G. Z. Stainback.

Musical Concert.

The choir Of the Cumberland Pres
byterian Church will give an enter
tainment at the Opera House on next
Friday night, April 18th, with an in
teresting program of vocal and in
strumental music, recitations, etc.
Admission fee % cts, reserved seats
80 cts, proceeds to apply on the pur-
chase of a new pipe organ for the
church. The best musical talent of
McMinnville will contribute to the
program, and all who attend may
confidently expect to be highly en-
tertained. McMinnville has not had
local entertainment of this nature
in long time, and we bespeak for
this one a large and appreciative
audience.
