Everybody has wanted their own

after the five years of existence,

Until mining has proved that
there is no coal in the $4,000 a.

we shall believe there is. But
to accomplish what we all so gen

to the fact that In August OF

it now condemns 80 vigorously.

Very truly yours,
w. i MELOHER.


We publish the above extract
from a letter received, for two
reasons, first to show the future
OF Sequachee.i is not as dead as
some would have it ap-
pear to be, and secondly to show
that the ideas of the NEWS are
appreciated.
We hope the mountain road
may be built this fall as to our
mind 1t is the key to the situa-
ton. Build the road, then we
can get the people who live on
the mountain to visit Sequachee,
who now are forced to go to JAS
p,r and other places from necess-
ity, not choice. Build the road
and Immediately the Sequachee
Company Can offer small farms
and we protest against any but
small farms being sold in order
that what people buy they may
develope. We would rather
have one sturdy worker on 10
acres of land than a pretended
farmer on 500, and if the rule is
adhered to, the country will be
fifty times DETER off by the divis-
ion. No matter what the rule
or the custom may have been,
we have nothing to do with the
past but a very great deal to do
with the future. But from
cranks, the Lord preserve US.
We have had too many. Now
let us get some working men.
No more cranks.
The vineyards having been
successfully inaugurated, now
let US keep on setting out fresh
vines. What was an experiment
has been settled satisfactorily we
see and grapes can be made a
staple industry, and we hope
Mr. Melcher will not let that Is
dea remain dormant.
Here is the point to consider
An acre in grapes or berries will
pay $100 an acre. An acre IN
corn may not realize $50

fruit gardens established and
there will be a surer crop than
anything else, leaving out the
difference in the labor and care
of crops,
The idea of fruit raising viii
also prove an important factor il
the disposition of the lands of the
Company. We believe the vine
yards can be brought down to
ward the town as we'll as exten
ded up to and on top OF the
mountain. Every foot hill oil
the west side of the Valley cal
be utilized by planting in. straw
berries which never fail.
But we want, truly, men anC
women who can and will work
and we also want every cabll
swept away. Poor homes ar
not inspiring. The better tn
home, the more will the ambi

Closing of Public Schools.

Last Friday afternoon the public
school closed with very enjoyable
program. The entertainment opened
with song by the high school. The
different grades were represented by
various kinds of entertainment, such
as songs, Rotations, tableaux and
drills. The prettiest drill and tab
leau combined was executed by the
intermediate department. It was
the Grecian drill, and was a very
pretty sight as the young ladies
were robed in white Grecian cos
tunes. The drum bell drill by the
