JOE FOLK, OF TENNESSEE.

Joe Folk, the Tennessee boy who has
attracted the attention of the world by
his fearless prosecution OF boodlers
in st. Louis, in his capacity OF Circuit
Attorney, is being doomed for Governor
of Missouri.
He delivered speech at New Florence
last Saturday before crowd of $1,000
people on "Honesty in the Conduct
of Public Affairs" and here are few
epigrams gathered from his speech by
the st. Louis Republic:

Sowing the Dragon Seeds.

Unless the bloodthlrsty spirit of the
American mob is soon checked 1t -
appalling to contemplate the extreme
to which it will lead. 1t is no longer
race question. nor question OF looa-
ton. 1t is savagery and murderous
riot against decency and the reign OF
good government. Unless the people
discourage lynching by a punishment
that will make mob law terrible to
those who participate in It, we are
sowing in this country the dragon
seeds of anarchy that will invite the
deluge. 1t IL time to quit talking
sectionalism with regard TO lynching
and do something with the crime itself
instead of with the quarter of the
union where the offense is committed

JUDGE ERWIN'S
REPORT READY.
To Be Read to the City Council
Thursday Night.-The Her.
aid Learns That the City's
Debt Will be shown to be
About SIG, 900.
From Tuesday, Daily)

Judge f. f.. Erwin has completed his
report on the Indebtedness OF the city OF
Columbia, and the report Is now ready
for publication. Ii will be presented
and read to the Board OF Mayor and
Aldermen on Thursday night, so Judge
Erwin stated to Herald reporter this
morning.
The report is right voluminous, and
represents great deal of laborious
work by Judge Erwin.
While nothing will be given out by
Judge Erwin in connection with the
report, the Herald has 1t on pretty good
authority that the total Indebtedness OF
the city will be something like Slle,OO
1t will be remembered that the Herald's
estimate made some weeks ago was
from $lOO, 900 to $685. 900, so it will be
seen that the Herald was mighty close
to the correct figures. The Herald also
estimated that the city owed Mr.. Chas.
Is. Bigelow about $4,000. 1t Is
believed that that estimate is also cor
rect. =,
The report will show, according TO the
information obtained today by the
Herald, that the city's indebtedness
will be apportioned about as follows; 600
Warrants and interest, sts'ooooo
R. d. Smith, iS'So0

Duck River Valley R. r. bonds, $4,000
| Borrowed Money (aDout) 5000

! It is presumed that the report, after
being read to the Board Thursday
night, will be given to the press, and the
Herald will then publish the same IN
detail.
1t is understood that Judge Erwin
has furnished duplicate copy of the
report to the chairman of the citizens
committee, Mr.. A. B. Rains.
