c. Il. CAMP, a home-seeker travelling
| agent, was in Union City last week
making arrangements for the reception
of home-seekers from the Northwest.
His plan is to inaugurate series of
monthly excursions, beginning about
March 1, and continuing twelve months.
The exeursionists will come via st.
| Louis, and will make stops of two days
at three points in West Tennessee,
namely: Union City. Trenton and Hum
boldt. Mr.. Camp says that the class of
people he will bring South will be
among the best citizens of the North
and Northwest-farmers who are hard
working and practical, who want good
| farming land and are making the change
on account of the climate.
THE city board of health and the
board of public works and affairs of
| Nash Vile have entered vigorous pro-
test against the location of the farm
prison on Stone river above the city
They claim it would ruin the health of
the town.
EACH of the five supreme judges OF
| Tennessee is candidate for renomina
tion. Judges McAllister and Wilkes,
| the Middle Tennessee mem bers, will be
opposed in the convention by Chancel-
lor George L. Seay of Gallatin, by
Chancellor B. NJ. Webb of Smithville,
and probably by Chancellor w. S. Bear
den of Shelbyville. In addition to the
two membe from West Tennessee,
Chancellor w. d. Beard of Memphis is
candidate. AS yet the East Tennes-
see member. Judge Snodgrass, has no
opposition. The convention will prob
ably be held in April.
REV. G. F. b. HOWARD, the man of
many aliases, the noted foreign claims
swindler, has been taken from jackson
to the Columbus t0hio) penitentiary
IL the criminal court of Hamilton
County last week while j. H. Lewis,
alias Crawford, alias Fishback, and i.
B. Morgan, bunco men, also wanted in
Chicago, were on trial, Circuit Judge

THE manufacturing plants of Hum
boldt are in better condition than ever
before All are running full time and
find it problem to keep up with orders
Especially is this so at Dodson's Plow
Foundry. Their capacity has been
doubled and an extra force of men en-
gagged to mount the plows. In fact,
every department is running at its full
capacity, and it is impossible for them
to fill their orders. One day last week
orders were received for 200 plows.
THE penitentiary committee has about
settled on one of three sites for the farm
prison. Two of these are few miles
below Nashville, on the Cumberland
river, and the other is on Stone river,
in Rutherford County. 1t is more than
likely that one of the sites on the Cum
berland river will be decided on. The
committee has inspected twenty-five or
thirty farms, some of them twice or
three times. DR.. Sim of Memphis, DR..
Sims of Chattanooga, and DR.. Stafford of
Nashville, members of the State Board
of Health, have examined the three
farms in question and will submit
written opinion regarding the sanitary
advantages of each. If either of the
farms below Nashville is selected, not
more than 1000 acres will be purchased.
