The Nashville Banner celebrates the
hood by publishing a very handsome
souvenir edition, the receipt of a copy
of which we would acknowledge. Ten
nessee's centennial is a proud occasion.
While 1t is evident hat the most has
not been made of the bounties which
nature has lavished upon that terri
tory, nevertheless of all the states
similarly situated she leads in enter
prise and accomplishment. The popu-
lation in 1890 and including the aborig-
ines was but 1861. In 1890 it was
1,767. SIS. According to the census the
total acreage in the state under culti-
walton is nearly nine million acres, and
the value of products therefrom was
total valuation of $50. 777.736. In 1897
there We're 1856 manufacturing estab-
lishments IN Tennessee, employing
$500 hands, using $62, $50, 900 capital
and yielding $50, 500, 900. In 1880 Ten
ressee produced 800, 741 IONS of pig iron
from 10 furnace stacks. The value of
the product of coal from Tennessee
mines in 1890 was S2,33S, 309. Total
mileage of railroads in the state in 1890
was 1867. and their gross receipts that
year We're ST, 1O1, 59S. This is a rough
summary, taken from the figures of the
last Federal census, but it serves to
show the great growth of the state in
material prosperity. The value or
public school property is $3.50 l9.
There are three schools of law, seven
schools of theology four schools of medi-
cine. Is colleges of social arts. There are
three normal schools for the public and
one private. The state is rich in min
eral resources, coal, iron, marble, copper
and oil and has vast timber resources.
She enjoys an equable climate and a
thrifty, entarprising people, literally
infused with New England ideas.

We publish this morning another
communication upon the system by
which the Lithgow library is con-
Quoted, as regards the accommodation
of its patrons. The arguments ad-
vanced by Mr.. Small are strong and as
yet are u~ndisputed. We him they
will appeal to the majority as being
sensible and pretty conclusive. All
will admit that the purpose of the
library is to hest provide for the large
est number possible the literature 1t
contains. If, as is alleged, the average
patron is not so well accommodated in
the new quarters of the library as in
the old, then a much money been
frittered away, and the $1,000 annually
appropriated by the city should be
withheld. Undoubtedly the system
used has received the approval Of
eminent librarians but that does not
necessarily demonstrate hat it is the
best for Augusta. Doubtless it was
felt that such a system should be
adopted at the start as would be equal
to the requirements of the future. Yet
it would not be surprising if those
who selected and put in force that
system at the Lithgow library made a
mistake. 1t is no discredit to them IL
they did err in Judgment. 1t IS an.

securing it.
