JUDGE WINTERS REVERSED.
Genera Term Superior Court Gives
William Adair n Verdict.

The Superior Court, in general term yes
terday. reversed the ruling of Judge
Winters in the case of William Adair
against the Big Four railway. Adair
brought suit for $4,000 against the COM
pany for the death of his little son., which
was caused by a Decline engine near
B~rightwood. The defendant demurred to
the complaint, alleging that it did not
show the road to have been negligent.
The objection was sustained. The de-
PENDANT then admitted that if there was
liability on the part of the road the record
might show a verdict of $1,000 fer the de-
PENDANT. Such a verdict was returned by
the jury. The plaintiff will be entitled to
the damages If the Supreme Cour sus-
tains the decision Of the general term.

Capt. Buck Kitchin made speech
at Shelby Oct. 81. The AMrOra says
he made three cornered speech, she'll
ing all the parties.
Saturday, Oct 9th, Senator Jarvis,
Congressman Bower and Maj. Robbins
spoke at Shelby. The unterrifed who
can always be depended upon to stand
to the rack, fodder Or no fodder, made
a big rally. A flag was offered the
township bringing the largest delega
tion. Ten townships competed for the
prize Ours, No. s, Polkville, got the
flag, numbering about 100 out Of 400
voters, led by three squires and a reve-
nue. officer out of job. This grand
procession from POlkville was accom-
panied by poor orphan colored boy
on q small gray mule. Maj. Robbins
is reported as making the most inter
esting speech, appealing most piteous
ly to the Populists not to forsake their
principles for the Republicans, and to
the Republicans not to forsake their
principles for the Populists. That all
should stand on the broad platform of
Demo Republican, Grover Cleveland,
John Sherman, goldbug ocracy. To
say the old machine fellows are scared
in CASTOR, Cleveland, Rutherford and
Polk counties is to express it mildly.
How to make farming pay under the
goldbug system: A young farmer in
Cleveland county last year hired a
small negro boy for 81 per month to
mind the baby so his wife could pick
cotton. During the month the boy
picked 5000 pounds of seed cotton
while the wife picked 5000 pounds, and
the baby minded itself. This is a fair
sample of how farmers do now to make
ends meet-work their wives to death
and pay no wages for help. OF course
this Cleveland county man did all he
could gathering the corn crop and put
ting in the small grain crops.
All fall crops here are pretty good.

standing on State platform for free

EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS.

Sour milk will do for mature swine,
but should never be fed to young pigs.
For the three years past the potato
crop has been q shsrt one. The aver
age yield this year is only Sc bushels
per acre.
Thenatural food of the horse is graes !;
there is nothing else upon which he
will grow so large, keep so healthy, or
I've 50 long.
The boy who has been an attentive
student at a good agricultural college
will show in after years on the farm
the value of his training.
Mulching is valuable in winter to
prevent crops from injury from alter
nate freezing and thaWing, and in SUM-
mer for retaining moisture
Too many COWS for the pasture, for

mat there is no money in dairying.
With the sheep breeder now working

Ills more necessary than ever that the

ANIMALS should breed the best.
1t costs more to feed pounds onto a
"fuO animal than it does onto grade
thoroughbred. The breeder of scrub
"ock loses at both ends of the business
at the grain bin and at the market.
The COW whose owner provides no
'OotS or ensilage, would dread the ad

LETTER FROM CLEVELAND CO.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
1 was at Shelby on the first Monday
in October A large crowd of horse
jockeys from every township, besides
many from CASTOR and Rutherford
counties, were there. The common
topics were low cotton and money
scarce. We were in town five hours
and saw the store doors full of polite
clerks but we did not see any customers
coming out of the stores with bundles
of goods, as of yore. We took seat
in front of store beside clever and
intelligent one legged veteran and was
interested in hearing him discuss the
situation. He is farmer, and said by
keeping out of the stores for several
years he had worked himself out of
debt and now felt able to hold out as
long as the business men could under
the present conditions. He had plenty

VIM. E. Mason, of Illinois, in talking
to farmers, says that the low price OF
wheat is caused by underconsumption
and not by overproduction. William
finds that this sort of talk suits his poP
litical purposes at pre- sent. Now if he
will admit that lack of money is the
cause of underconsumption, he can
pass up to the head of the class.

Cows in milk, it is claimed, will con
sumo nearly so per cent. more water
than the same COWS when not giving

647 pounds more in food per month.

Success has been obtained in Belgium

these boys were sent to this country in

were put in charge of Yung Wing, a grad

EDlCT TO CATHOLICS.
How the Papal Caution Is tc
Be Enforced.
Church Members Must Withdraw
From Secret Societies Under
the Ban.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 29.-The manner of
executing the Catholic church edict
against mem bershIp in the Knights of
Pythias, Odd Fellows and other societies,
announced exclusively through the Asso-
ciated Press, is now receiving the careful
consideration of the church authorities.
Monsignor Satoili has transmitted the de-
cision 10 the heads OF all dioceses through
out the country. and it remains for them
to convey 1t TO parish priests and for the
latter to give it practical application and
execution, each having considerable lati-
tIde as to how he shall act
No time is set within which the heads Of
diocsses may act. but some already have
notified their parish priests to read the
prohibition to the congregations tomorrow
with the announcements preceding masses.
Other bishops have not required a public
announcement to the congregations, as
the communications from Rome and from
Mon signor SatoIl do not direct a formal
publication. and they make it effective
largely through the confessional.
1t, therefore, may take some time for the
papal decree TO become fully effective and
to reach those persons who continue their
membership in secret societies after the
order of the church becomes known.
Communion is not taken necessarily more
than once year, though it is customary
with most Catholics to take the COM
muniop. 10 which confession is an absolute
essential. at Easter.
Other means, however, are at hand for
speedily carrying the papal order into
practical effect. There are published lists
of the members of the Knights of Pythiss
aud other societies, so that Catholic men,
bsrs of them are readily ascertain BILE.
confession beyond year they would
thereby cut themselves off from the church.
II they attended confession they would
voluntarily abandon their society connec-
tions and receive absalution or else ba ex-
amined on the subject. and il refusing TO
abandon their connections, absoution
would be withheld.
This would also operate to cut off the
church member from communion and
therefore from membership In the church.
No formal excommunicaton would be re-
quisite. 1t is pointed out that the church
decision will be more important In keeping
Catholics from Joining the prohibited
societies in the future. In this respect the
church authorities say the decision should
not be construed as against the Knights
of Pythias, Odd Fellows, etc., but only as
a rule of conduct enjoined on members of
the church, whereby the church retains
control of the conscience OF its members
instead of letting them be bound by secret
oaths.
