and is to be congratulated on winning
such lovely bride. The many friends

Mrs. Brophy, of Victoria, came up
Tuesday TO see her father, VIM. Rollins
who is very sick at his home In South

sheep aud wool can be grown at a good
profit on the wild ranges of Cum mberland
Mountain ana every farmer in Bledsoe
County can keep limited number of
sheep at better profit than any other
stock can be raised. The dog is our
eternal enemy. Sheep and dogs cannot
be raised together, neither can they be
kept in the same community. The pro-
gressiVe farmer wants TO raise sheep.
Every small farmer in these mountains
can keep ufrom forty to one hundred
sheep without expense, sell wool and
mutton enough every year to pay their
taxes and store account, and be inde-
pendent and prosperous, but the ''yalleF
dog" won't let the sheep live. Some OF
our people are-now raising sheep and it
pays, but the dogs kill many OF them
every year and there is no remedy"

MINERS TRIUMPHANT.
Victory PercheS on Their Ban
ners at Tracy City.

Some time last summer a strike
was declared at Tracy in what is
known as the outside mines, for
the adjustment of grievances which
not only affected the miners them~
selves, but also the Tennessee Coal,
Iron & Railway Co.
1t seems that the point at issue is
this, according to information Civ
Ell a News reporter Saturday ut
Whitwsll, by Mr., J. F. Bowden,
prominent in mining circles AS an
organizer and adjuster. When the
wage scale was signed last July the
on y one signing 1T at Tracy was
the T. G., | & r. r. Co, the out
81 e mines TO the number of FIVE
or six not signing it, and the rate
for coal per ton WAS fixed at from
$1.l5 to % The outside mines
however, have been Sc ing ctAl on
contract tn certain official at Ira
cy, for soc per ton, who disposed
Of it at 90, thus making lOc per
for merely invoicing it again.
This. howe yer, the miners union
did not object to SO much as to his
putting it on the market at less
than the market price and their
wage scale permitted, and the T.
c., l. & R. R. Co objected for the
same rsasons, saying that they
could not stand any such business
as that. The situation was quite
qerious as the output of these
mines was some $50 cars per week.
The union asked that the
scale be signed, but being refused q
strike was Immediately declared
and some forty or Fifty miners
walked out, and as fast az openings
We're given theu entered the en-
pioy OF the 7. c., l. & r. R. Co.
and the outside mines have been
shut down in consequence ever
siuce.
Recently the firm OF Sweden &
ldenburg. controlling one of the
the outside mines, yielded the
point, signed the scale, and are
n W getting cut coal on the union
basis, while the Others are still dor
mant. Hence it appears that th'
union miners gained the victory
but the fight WAS a stubborn one.
The prospects at Trscv City ar,
of the brightest character, and
much building has been going On
among is a Miners Union Hall
which Mr., Bowden assures us wher
completed will be an ornament tC
the place and an elegant hall.
We are glad to hear of these evi
dences OF prosperity at Tracy City
and only wish that our mine
friends at WhitwelI will soon b.
able to build just such hall 70
themselves.

IRON GOES UP
And With 1t the Wages of the
Miners Are Increased.

With the advance ia the price of iron
the wages of the miners 10 increased
and dating from the first of the month
miners are confident that they will have
an advance of 916c per ton and perhaps
SC per ton, 1t will be rememb beFed that
three months ago wages were reduced
on account of :he fall in the price OF
iron, thus making the pay roll at the
various mines mnoh smaller With
600 miners employed at Whitwell and
an output of 1000 tons per day, this
will make a neat increase in the pay
roll, which will be felt in increased
trade and business.

Jesse Grant a TRAITOR.

1t is more than likely that the McKin-
leyite party will promptly brand as a
traitor and copperhead one, jesse r.
Grant, the youngest son of the late Gen
eral and President IT, S. Grant, for hay
ing dared to align himself against the
McKinleyites land on the side of true
and consistent Americanism.
This is The only answer which the
party of trustism, Imperialism and mil
itarism seems able to make to repeated
announcements of the retirement from
its ranks of Americans who are unable
to follow it into the paths of Empire
and foreign conquest for the further en-
richment>, of American monopolies.
The brand of treason has been placed
on many republican breasts in the past
few months. The treason consisted in a
refusal to substitute McKinleyism for
Americanism
There is no great harm done by the
McKinleyite. ceremony of affixing this
badge, however. Treason to Mckinley
is but the maintenance of faith in the
American principles repudiated by Nc
Kinley. It's necessary if an American
is to remain an American these days.
Aud young Jesse Grant need not mind
in the least if the cry of "Traitorr' is
hurled at him by the McKinleyites
They would be lifting the same cry at
the heels of old Abe Lincoln if Lincoln
were alive today. Republic.

The following specimen of peanut
politics was taken from the local col
ums of Wednesdays Wausau Record,
the editorial writer of that paper eyi-
IDENTITY concluding that the statements
were too ''tishy'' to appear among his
items:
Some of the operators have made
arrangements for the winters work
regardless of the pending election.
while others, who are confident Of Me,
kinley's election, but admit that there
is a possibility of his defeat, are making
contracts conditional on Mckinley :
election. One firm will log in -. OOO. 600
feet this fall if there is no change of
administration, hut if there is will cur
tail their cut To s 090. 600 feet. Several
other big deals are also pending, hut
cannot be closed until after election"
If the above were rot an abominable
lie, names would have been published
of those who are not going TO put in as
many logs the coming winter if Bryan
is elected. This issimply disreputable
way of intimidating the voters. Every
body knows that there has been no
sale of lumber TO speak Of since last
spring. aud conditions are getting nc
better. The writer of the above squib
knows that every heavy logger in the
valley has his men in the woods now
and has his plans made for the amount
of timber he will cut. When the re-
publicans stoop TO intimidating the
voters. it shows that they are badly
scared.
