A GOOD LAW.

ing Of timber and protection of
growing crops and applies Jan. l
1896, to oil counties of $4,000
and over, and talks right out so,
cit shall be unlawful FOR any
owner of any horse, cow, sheep,
goat, hog, or other live stock to
knowingly permit the same to
run at large"
Sec. 2 says the owner shall be
liable for damage. Sec 3 gives
a lien on the animals, while Sec.
4 makes the violation of the law
misdemeanor, with a penalty of
not less than $500 or more than
500.
Sec 7 gives the people in 9th
er counties a chance to use the
law, i. e.
"Any county in the State may
come under the action of this law
by submitting the question to a
vote of the qualified voters of the
county at an election to be order
ed by the County Court at a
quarterly term, and if majority
of said votes shell be cast in ia
vor of said law, then said Law

Developing the SOutb's
Foreign Trade,

One of the noticeable signs of the
times is the rapid expansion of steam-
ship service between Southern ports
and Europe. A few years ago when
the Manufacturers Record oommenc-
ed its persistent advocacy for direct
lines Of steamers between Southern
and European ports, there was no
regular line Of foreign steamers from
any Southern port between Balti-
mora and New Orleans. Now New
port News, Norfolk and Port Royal
are running regular steamship lines
to Europe, and within the last few
days number Of important announce
ments have been made regarding
additional service from Southern
ports. The Hamburg America
Steamship Co. will run monthly
steamer commencing early in Oct.
hetweene Norfolk and Hamburg.
with the intention of increasing the
number of boats az trade may justify.
The Louisville & Nashville Railroad
Co. has completed arrangements for
running line of steamships between
Pensacola and Liverpool, thus open
ing up direct service from that point.
to foreign ports. The new line of
steamers between New Orleans and
Colon, in connection with the Panama
Railroad, is reported as about to be-
gin operations. The Texas Trans
port 81 Terminal Co. has been
orgenizen by American and foreign
people with a view to running regu-
lar steamers from Galveston to a.
number Of foreign ports. This COM
pany proposes to establish direct.
lines Of steamships between Texas
and Manchester, England, and
several other foreign ports. These
are but the signs Of the times, it dica--
ting how rapidly the foreign trade Of
Southern ports is Developing

10000 Tons Of Iron.

Birmingham, Ala; Sept. d. The.
Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad
Company booked to-day another
order for the low silicon or basic IRON
which they have been recently turn-
ing out at their Alice furnace in this
city. The last order is for 10000 tons
for Illinois Steel Works at Chicago.
an order of 400 tons to go ahead Of.
the general order. This order, like the.
order fronkthe Carnegie Steel comp
any at Pittsburg, Pa, for $4,000 tons
is based on the analysis of the iron
furnished by the Tennessee company,
The analysis proving correct, the
orders go for the whole amount
The tennessee Company has staked
its reputation ON the correctness OF
the analysis and this insures that,
The company is in receipt of many
kilograms and letters asking for prices
On this iron, Which they quoted the
Illinois Steel Company at the low
price of $40 a ton. They are so
confident of the deal that they have
already made arrangements to adapt
a strong furnace at Bessemer to its
manufacture. Incidentally Vice

the money raised for that pur-
pose should be expended judic-
iously.-South Pittsburg Repub-
lican,
Our idea exactly but is the
school appropriation given the
proper consideration it should
have. Public monies should be
more carefully spent than pri'
vate funds and appropriations
should be made only for pressing
needs while taxes are so hard to
pay.

BETTER TIMES MEANS
BETTER WAGES.

Next to the qualification every
one ought to feel at the signs of
returning prosperity by the in
crease in the value of iron, the
increased activity in the manu-
facture of iron and the large con
tracts which have been placed
for pig iron, it seems to
us a most encouraging sign when
the wages of employees are being
raised all over the county vol
UNFAIRLY bp the employers. We
trust it will be the beginning OF
a more cordial feeling between
the working people and those
who employ them.
A mans labor is his best CAPT.
tai and has Just as much right to
get the highest consideration he
can obtain for it, No man loses
his manhood or individuality by
working for another, but in or

able to do the work engaged in.
A poor man has just as much
right to marry and have d family

pough to support them, and the
history of this country shows
that some Of the most successful
pioneers of this country as being
blessed with good, capable and
industrious wives, laid the foun-
dation Of future honor and re-
ward, while poor, very poor.
But the man to do good hons
est work ahoud be in a normal
condition at least aud he does
better service if his body is nour>

he goes to his labor knowing
that his wife and little ones have
reasonable food and are clothed
and are comfOl table ut least.
1t has been sad that until res
Gently people have been extraVa
giant and have lived beyond
the,r means. We think the four
years of hard times have cured
that, but in any event that can be
no reason or cause why at any
time people should be asked to
labor at less than living wages.
But the employer has also his
rights and privileges and are in
many cases as great sufferers,
perhaps, AS their employees, but

In his recent address, State
Superintendent Of Public In
struction Galbreath makes the
serious charge that about one
fourth of what should come into
the school fund of the state is
distributed into other channels of
public expense. To be more
specific, he shows that the total
amount for public school in Ten
nessee last year was 81, 600, 900 in
roundnumbers, but that $500, 600
was levied for school purposes,
which was either not collected or
was appropriated to other items
of expenditure. It this be true
immediate steps should be taken
to ascertain where the evil lies
and to apply the proper remedy.
The public schools are by far the
most important institutions of
the state and all funds going to
them should be looked after AMI
guarded with sacred care.--Chat-
tanooga News.
THAT'S so apply the remedy
and cut out about 100000 paid
annually tor superintendent who
do not superintend. One trouble
is the state has too much ma
chinery. inst fancy $l,600,OOu
for four months teaching!

We have had a variety of OPP.
inions offered us in regard to
the case or two Of fever which
has afflicted our community. Too
hot, too cold: too much rain, too

Too many hog baths in the
