ISOLATION Is very near to the heart OF

when we could hardly have a jack
show, and there WASN'T interest
enough manifested In the Association
to issue atwo-b bit poster, these resolute
breeders, like Woodbridge, Thomas,
Farrell, Brown and others-in
fact nearly every breeder in the
county-wOrked through great diff
culties and many eDIbarrassments to
place the Association where IL now
is-in a most prosperous condition
and near to the heart of every live
Maury County farmer and breeder.
1t is the especial pride OF all the peo-
pie, aud next fall will see a bigger
fair than ever before.

Even the old Louisville d Nash
vile Railroad is going to help. Now
as rule we have never wasted any
sweetness on railroad. We regard
them as the epitOme of that form of
life which knows how to take care OF
themselves; and sometimes we have
e Ell been constrained to thiuk, in the
still quiet hours of night, down in the
de p recesses of our heart of hearts,
that some of their methods have
savored more Of the dark lantern, the
lonely road and Colt revolver
than, of square open traffic. Never
theless they have Joined in
and granted every request and given
every indulgence to the committee
on the celebration and to the manag-
ers of our tracks as regards TO freight

population Of 10000 people,"
Ills a question of cause then, and
effect. live do nothing, we will be
nothing. We have mentioned the
y
ago we had no fairs-Our entire live
stock interests were at Il standstill.
Now we have the best half mile track
and fair grounds in the South; and
the fastest great kitc-track, by the
records, in the world. Two years ago
ii was a clover field Oh farm near
Columbia. To-day, by the work of
one progressive, brainy man, there
are almost enough handsome fair
buildings on it to cover the area OF
the clover sod. -Four hundred boxed
stalls, grand stand, Il dining and
amusement hall nearly finished, and
Il track where the soil is peculiarly
adapted for speed without injury,
and on which it is safe to say more
money and work have been spent
than on any in the land. A large
meeting will be held in July from
the 18th to the 18th, and n hundred
thousand dollar meeting will be held
in November. Is not this effect
enough? Could one man do more ?
The benefits of the work of this man
will be felt by every man, woman
and child in Maury County. Think
of it! Ten thousand dollars for the
man who raises the best yearling
colt!
And this sets us to thinking; one
other thought ana We Will let you
rest. We profess to be educated, re-
fined and intellectual people. We
talk of sch ools aud churches; Of in
telectuaI work and mental greatness.
We say the mind is greater than the
body; the soul is superior to the AMI
NAL; the spirit to the clay it leaves
behind. We say we will never have
another Shakespeare, nor another
Newton. nor another LOngfellOw.
We bemoau the littieness of our in
tellectual age and talk OF the great
ness Of the past. But suppose some
W. G. Jones would offer ten thousand
dollars FOR another play equal to
Hamlet, would we get IL? We need
men like Jones in every calling in
life. II we had them the whole world
would be better and greater, and the
links OF the chain Of future events
would be as steel to sand, compared
with the past.

stock sold, and sold higher, because
the buyers are here; they mean new

many things, that we ask evey farm
er to stop reading us right here and
fold your hands and think for your

just like farmer. He never has an

only one head of the many usually

when it comes to his own interests
.h.sc arguments are generally cor
rec. We have no fear for the farm
er; lac argues straight from cause 10
effect; from the thing TO the cOnse
quence. And as to that, the Maury
County fairs know how to depend on
him every time, for whenever it
farm interests, he is there with all
his neighbors-and he brings the best
