TEN-M!LE DEAD LINE.
No Liquor Must be Sold to Univer-
sity Students.

On October 10, Francis Allen
and Wiley Tucker were arraigned
in the Federal Court at Nashville,
Tenn, to answer the charge of SELL
ing liquor without license to the
students at the University of the
South at Sewanee. Because ii
was their first offense Judge Clark
let them off with fines of 800 each
and costs and ninety days in jail,
but took occasion to announce that

would be given the full limit with
a penitentiarY sentence. This
means two years.
The Judge said he was determ-
ined TO break up the practice Of
debauching the students, ant
hence drew deadiine around the
university town.

edgement of previous error, or he
must give a reason that fits tn e
particular case in hand. If he
drinks with one it is difficult to
refuse to drink with others, and if
he accepts invitations to drink he
must give invitations or seem stin

more safety, therefore, in not com
mencing.
1t is the same with gambling,
and it is hard to conceive of more
demoralizing vice. If one CANDLES
at all it is not easy to limit the
things gambled for or the amount
wagered. If one bets at all and
refuses to back up his opinion with
money, his opinion is, in the minds
of some, discredited. If he does
not bet at al that is {. sufficient
reason why he should not be called
upon to put up money in support
of his opinion on any subject.
Then, too, the gambling habit
weakens a mans energies. Money
won on a bet or in a lottery seems
to be much more easily obtained
than money secured by, industry
of any kind, and after one has OBJ
tanned his living for awhile from
games of chance he becomes prac-
tically incapacitated for any legiti-
mate effort, and is not content with
the slow accumulation that gener-
ally accompanies the ordinary
forms of industry. 1t is the part

nor of the result of Wednesdays pro
ceedings:
absolute harmony really did exist
in the convention. The tariff plank
was agreed to, but here the harmony
stopped. Governor Cummins and his
friends demanded majority of the
committee on resolutions in order
that they might say that the COM
mittee was controlled by them and
the platform was their own handi-
work. Governor Cummins represent
ed to Senator Allison that he had
come down from his position, but
would like to come down before the
convention, with the assistance of
his friends and not his enemies.
"Senator Allison was disposed to
agree to this, but as soon as the
agreement became known there was
trouble. The republican leaders of
the Ninth district served notice that
they would put Congressman Smith
on the committee on resolutions and
not Senator Junlin, Of Red Oak, as
desired by Governor Cummins. The
Sixth district followed suit and
served notice that they also could
hold their own caucus and would put

minis could hardly believe that this
would take place.
When the district caucuses met
there were developments. The Ninth
district elected Congressman Smith
for the resolutions committee and the
Sixth selected Robinson, both being
elected by decisive majorities. The
third district placed J. #, Merry, OF
Dubuque, of the old line republicans
of the state, on the resolutions com
mittee. In the Fifth Senator j. H.
Trewin, Of Cedar Rapids, was select
ed, while Judge H. NJ. Tower, who
opposed the shelter to monopoly
plank last year, was selected in the
Eighth.
ITO cap the climax J, w. Blythe,
of Burlington, who is considered the
head and front of the opposition to
Cummins, was selected in the First.
Cummins men were selected in the
Second, Fourth, Seventh, Tenth and
Eleventh districts,
when the committee on resolu-
tics met it organized by electing
Blythe chairman and ]. H, Trewin,
secretary. The meeting was entire
ly harmonious, for the plank regard
ing the tariff had been agreed upon.
when Blythe appeared to make
his report the convention gasped for
breath. 1t had been heralded abroad
that the Cummins men would control
the committee on resolutions, but
there was the leader of the opposi-
ton standing before the convention

NEWSPAPERS BEST OF ALL.

Mr.. Pamplim, representing Bucks
stoves and steel ranges, was in town
during the week looking after bust
ness for his firm. He says the
Bucks are the most enthusiastic adj
vocates of newspaper advertising in
the country, and have dispensed
with every other medium. Mr.. Pam
pin has been with the firm twenty
two years, and in that length of time
has helped them spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars in keeping their
name and the virtues of their wares
before the people. Up to 1896 they
used Autographs, picture cards, cal
endars, circulars, catalogues and ev-
cry other conceivable means of ad-
vertising, but did not get the results
that they thought they ought to have
for the amount Of money expended.
That year they called off everything
else, and confined their advertising
exclusively to newspaper space. The
result was astonishing. In twelve
months their business, which had
been creeping up about 10 per cent a
year, jumped sixty per cent, and has
been showing a like increase every
year since. 1--WE have a regular err
ganized advertising force, and an Of
fee room 25x60 devoted exclusively
to advertising writer's, continued
Mr.. Pamplin. And / want to tell
you it is the most satisfactory and
profitable department of our bust
ness. If you want to reach the peo-
pie and sell them your goods you
have got to use the newspapers. All
else is tinkling cymbals and sounding
