ne OItumWd WOrlO: w nat means
the great choking of the avenues of
commerce? Why is there more grain
and stock to be carried to market at
this time than the railroads can carry ?
The consumers do not need it at this
season more than another. But the
rush is very great Who will hold it
until needed by the consumers? The
farmers are blamed if they conspire
to hold back the grain from the glut-
ted market. He is told that it is
wrong to interfere with the regular
channels of trade. But tits Just as
sure as fate that somebody must hold
the crops until needed to sustain the
life of the people. If the producer
doesn't hold them it will be the
moneyed men who buy and hold for
gain-for the rise. The farmers can
not hold; the man OF money. the
spectators can. What lesson does
this teach? Just this-that there il
an injustice wrong, somewhere,
that places the producer at a dlsad-
vantage and gives the profit of his in
dustry to the men who manipulate the
product of his labor. II the producer
were rot 80 placed at disadvantage
he would not be compelled to hustle
his crop of SO soon on an overloaded
market which bears the price already
too low. Give us laws to more fairly
distribute the productions. and we
will have the crops going to marke
when needed and transportation dis
tributed evenly in the different
months

A Wonder Worker.

Mr.. Frank Huffman, young man
of Burlington, Ohio, states that he had
been under the care of two prominent
physicians, and used their treatment
until he was not able to get around.
They pronounced his case to be Con-
sumption and incurable. He YVES per-
suaded to try DR.. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds and at that time was not able
to walk across the street without rest
ing. He found, before he had used
half of dollar bottle, that he was
much better; he continued to use it
and is to-day enjoying good health.

A Tribute to Mrs. Bette Watts on
To The Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle:

To The Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle:
Aunt Bette, as we all called her
has gone from us, but the influence OF
her life for good will ever remain.
She lived for her family, not selfish
ly, not slavishly. but in a manner that
instilled principles into her children
that has made crown of glory unto
herself blessing to the community
in which they live and power in the
church to which they belong.
A few hours before she died her
eight children were standing around
her bed listening to words of comfort.
1t was an hour of solemnity that will
be in the memory of all who witnessed
it forever. When the time came
for her remains to be carried away
from the house where she had lived
since her marriage, forty-seven years
before, her six sons bore the casket to
its last resting place. May God COM
fort them in their affliction and help
them TO use the lives, which this de-
voted mother did so much to help
shape, for good. Y.

The Tobacco Congress, composed
of delegates from the fifteen counties
of the GAINESVILLE Tobacco District,
met at GAINESVILLE Dec. %, 1891.
Considering the general interest OF
the tobacco market, its depression
and arrangements, it unanimously
adopted the following resolutions
and instructed the secretary to send
the same to the papers of the Clarks-
vile district for publication:
Whereas, it is most important to
the grower of tobacco that the mar.
ket for the sale of his product shall be
free rom methods that are dishonest
and deceptive.
And whereas for a number of
years the most unwarranted course
has been pursued in the preparation
of this staple for market by mum.
Der of dealers until fraudulent meth
DDS have grown into great system,
deceiving and repeling the purchaser
and threatening the existence of ouI
markets; therefore
Resolved by this Tobacco Con.
gress that in the name of the PEG.
pie of the GAINESVILLE Tobacco Dis
trict we earnestly protest against the
continuance of these pernicious prac-
tees.
Resolved, that we call upon all
good citizens to aid IN the suppress
sion OF an evil that endangers one of
the greatest interests of our country.
Resolved, that we believe that if
the protest of those who fail to pro-
duce this element of wealth to the
country is unheeded, that tile gov
eminent in the discharge of its Obli-
cation to the wealth producers should
adopt means to guarantee the inspec-
ton Of the tobacco product as 1t does
that of pork In its present policy.
Resolved, that we condemn In un-
measured terms this practice of those
who contract to represent the planter
in the sale of his product becoming
the largest purchaser of his staple, at
the same time becoming purchaser
and salesman.
c. ID. BELL, Pres. Tob. Con.
L. b. SYDNoR, Sec'y.
Referring to the above resolutions,
Mr.. M. Ell. Clark writes:
The resolution offered by Mai. Il.
w. Lewis at the last Tobacco Con.
gress ought to be printed In letters of
gold and hung up in every tobacco
warehouse lin the State of Tennessee.

The Appeal Avalanche, speaking
of the Gillian complication, refers tC
the sagacious counsel of Mr.. Tilden a

gress TO build Notifications and
strengthen our coast dcfences, and
the great necessity for such protec
ton now for our coast cities in the
event OF II war with Chill is appar-

but as a legal, practical way of dis
posing of the great surplus in the

"The Lord giveth and the Lord
taketh away"
For one year and few months He
gave bright and sprightly little boy
to w. G. and Angie Baxter; but in
order to make heaven dearer He took
little Tyler to dwell with Him and the
angels. He was patient sufferer
bore his sufferings like little hero
but all that his kind, attentive physi-
clan and relatives could do availe d
nothing. God wanted him. So, on
the 2lst of January, 1892, the angels
carried him to heaven. Thus, in the
brief time of nine days, the idol was
broken, heart-strings We're severed,
and the music of loved ones voice
hushed forever on earth. Father,
mother, your treasure-bud is unfolded
in heavenly home. 1t will bloom
there forever. Some sweet day, among
the pure white lilies in the Lords
garden, you will clasp your idolized
one, and He who is fairer than the
flowers will say: II have kept him
these many days for thee" Tender
est sympathy in our hearts fingers for
the dear parents and grandmother,
and may their sorrow be blessed by
thought of the happy meeting that
awaits them in the ''sweet bye and
bye" BILLIE w.

DR.. Goodman in Trouble.

DR.. Goodman, who has an office in
Skufftown and who has been practic-
ing medicine on the Indian doctor
fashion, is in trouble. The grand
jury has indicted him for practicing
medicine without a certificate, in
violation of State law. He was ar
rested this morning but will likely
give bond for his appearance. This
is the first case of the kind to 60 on
record in GAINESVILLE since the new
law was enacted.

University Notes.
To the Tobacco Leaf Chronicle.]

To the Tobacco Leaf Chronicle]
The all-absorbing subject at the
University now is examinations.
Some students are frightened, some
have "fiatted," some have "curled,"
some are sick. The examinations
are very fair, but some students, who
have not studied any, except on last
Sunday, think them very hard. The
boys in DR.. Rawlings classes, of
course, regret that they have no
chance to stand the examinations in
his department.
DIR. Waddel is expected to be here
Wednesday to take DIR. Rawlings
place until he has fully recovered
his health. The people of Clarks.
Vile, as we'll as the students, will be
glad to have DIR. Waddel in their
midst.
Mr.. Thorborn, of Nashville, en-
tered school last week. He is from
Mr.. Stages church, in that city.
Mr.. Wadley, who has been con-
fined to his room on account of in
juries received while coasting, is able
to be out today.
Mr.. Maddox has recovered from
an attack of grip.
Mr.. Carr is able to be out again.
The many friends of DIR. Rawli lgs
and DR.. Wilson will be pleased to
learn that they are both improving.
DIR. Wilson expects to begin his
work next Monday.
Miss Sudie Tate has returned from
Hopkinsville.
Mr.. Burton, of Brownsville, came
up to see his son, who is in college
here, last week.
Mr.. Scanlon will leave for his home
in Mississippi tomorrow. His friends
will regret to know that he will not
return.
The college Y. M. G. A. was led by
MIR. Hamilton yesterday. We are
glad to see these young men who are
not candidates for the ministry TAX
ing a part in the meetings. 1t is ex

First Meeting In February.

There is general understanding,
seemingly, that the new board oil
mayor and aldermen will hold its
first meeting on the first Thursday
night in February. This is erroneous.
There is an ordinance which says the
meeting must be held on the first
day Of February, consequently the
change in the city government will
take place next Monday.

wool on the sleeps back 1t must
also be taken off that on the mans
