Sparkling Wines.

At first sparkling wines were only
made in the French province of Cham.
payne. In the early part of the nine.
teenth century the first experiments
to manufacture sparkling wines were
made in Germany. The wines. how.
ever. grown in Champagne are best
suited for this purpose, hence most
of the German firms manufacturing
champagnes obtain their wines from
Champagne and mix them with Ger.
man wines.

sILAs BULLoCKaIs DEAD.

The death of S. w. Bullock at
Big Sandy last Sunday night is la
mented wherever he was known.
Mr.. Bullock has been successful
and conservative man of business,
has long been a resident of the
county, and was largely identified
with the growth and development
of Big Sandy. He was a gener-
Gus, genial spirit, full of the old
Tennessee amiability and hospi-
tality, and he won respect and con-
fidence from his neighbors, and
held the confidence of the public
in marked degree. The memory
Of his good deeds in life, both in
and out of the church, will remain
among his friends and neighbors
for years to come, and his removal
from the activities of life can only
be regarded as calamity in Big
Sandy.

apo 1T TODAY"

The time-worn injunction, "Never put
off It'll tomorrow what you can do today"
is now generally presented in this form:
"Do it today!" That is the terse advice,
we want to give you about that hacking
cough or demoralzing cold with which
you have been struggling for several days,
perhaps weeks. Take some reliable rem
edy for it today-and let that remedy be
DR.. Boschee's German Syrup, which has
been in use for over thirty-fve years. A
few doses of it will undoubtedly relieve
your cough or cold, and its continued use
for few days viii cure you completely.
No matter how deep-seated your cough
even if dread consumption has attacked
yonr lungs, German Syrup will surely
effect cure-as it has done before in
thousands OF apparently hopeless cases of
lung trouble. New trial bottles, 25c reg

Of the other $4,000 is sixty cents
on the dollar, which amounts to a
discount Of $4,000 per year and if
this is continued during the forty
FIVE yearssallotted to payment of the
debt you can readily see it will cost
us 5000 to pay little insight
fcant sum Of S2z, 500.
Now, something about our
schools. l am especially interested
in this bond issue on account of the
immediate effect Il will have on our
schools. We give the school board
levy sufficient for a seven months
school, but there is an Indebtedness
of S35oo that mas to be taken care
of either out of the bond Issue or
the school levy. If the bonds are
not issued it will necessitate pay
ing this $500 out Of the school
levy, which would give us FIVE
instead of a seven month school:
but if the bonds are issued | say
we will have an eight month school.
You will say, how can this be- /
will simply say that it can and will
be.
Now l am going after your
sympathy. | believe that every
fairminded man will acknowledge
that the present administration has
devoted the best part of their time
and energy in trying TO advance
the interest Of every citizen of the
city aud this bond proposition, as
we consider it, IS one of our best
efforts. 1t was proposed by your
humble sci yant and adopted un-
animously by every member Of the
council. Now if we are turned
down on this proposition we can
hardly take it otherwise than a
direct vote of censure aud repudi-
alton Of our best efforts.

BONDS OR NO BONDS
Isthe Issue--M Mayor Murphy Takes
a Hand in the Discussion.
STRONGLY FAVORS THE ISSUE
Giving Reasons--Interesting EX-
PLANTATION Of City Finances.


There has been great deal of
sound, logical argument published
in favor of the bonds, and, in my
judgment, nothing against them. !
will say in the first place we want
TO change the Indebtedness from a
script Indebtedness to a bond in
debtedness, and by so doing save
an interest charge of one per cent.
but this is a small item compared
with the saving between paying in
script and in cash. 1t is claimed
by some Of The autis that this is
experimental. that the script can
not be maintained at par after the
old debt is taken care of. l will
say for the benefit Of those who are
not informed, that it is not expert
mental with those OF US who have
in charge the finances of the city.
About twelve months ago our sal
aried officers began to complain
about their script being discounted
10 such an extent that they were
only receiving a little better than
one half wages for their labor. By
investigation We found that We
could, BY ordinance, set aside GER
tain revenues not deiived from the
annual levy, set it aside for
purposes other than paying the old
debt. We found that the fines and
occupation licenses would run
about $4,000 per year. We also
found that it took about S, 900. 90
per year to pay our salaried officers;
now here IS the point: That in
come was placed where the old debt
could not touch it. We have been
issuing SCRIPT on that fund now for
nearly . year and there has not been
: day during all this time that this
script has not been worth one hun
dred cents on the dollar. Bankers.
merchants. and all alike. are glad
TO take It par. and why al this diff
ference simply because this reve-
nue is kept out Of the clutches Of
the oid indebtedness.
Th- antis say the present admin
issration Is all right bat the next
