Money Not Well Spent

The mail carriers from Rampant to the Koyukuk country, say the money spent on the government trail between the Yukon and Coldfoot was not we'll expended. The mail carriers say the surveyors simply followed a guide over the trail that had been followed by oth- CTS, and they did not mark it so that anyone else could find where they had been. It is said that no attempt was made to select the best route and that no work has been done on that which already had been selected.

-rrust Us I"

Former Speaker Henderson, writing
In the January number Of Everybody 8
Magazine" says that "when tariff legis
lation becomes necessary, il should be
settle1 in the calm of national politics
and not before or during the heat OF =
| presidential battle "
Mr.. Hendsrson is among the distin-
guished Americans who ''stand pat,
those gentlemen who insist that the
American PEOPLE should .'let vel
enough alone on the tariff question /;
and we have goof reason TO believe
that he will be very slow to conclude
that tariff legislation Is ever neces-
sary.
But what does Mr.. Henderson mean
when he says that the necessity foT
such legislation should be 'settled" In
the calm of national politics and nor
before or during the heat of presi-
Dental bartlef Who, If not the
people. has the right to settle the
question:
Mr.. Henderson was NOT willing for
the question to be 'ssattled' IN the
congressional elections of 1909. nor is
he willing for it to be ''settled" in
the presidential election of 1904 What
he means to say is that ths people
should have no part in the settlement
of this question. but that they should
trust Mr.. HENDERSON party TO
settle 1t according to the Judgment
OF Mr. Henderson party's leaders.
Mr.. Henderson says that 1.-THE in
creasing wealth of the country Is not
confined to trust made goods, and he
saws that IAN are growing richer,
more powerful and happier.
There are very large number OF

A PROSPEROUS YEAH.
Notwithstanding Hard Wheat Cror,
Maury County Farmers Have
Done Well.

Notwithstanding the hard wheat
season Just passed, the farmers OF Maury
County seem to have mad most prosper
Gus year, and are, as usual, living oil
the fat Of the land. Although 1t Is true
that the wheat crop has been hard
one, ana the production, considering
the average for this county, is consld-
erably shore of what 1t usually ls, the
fact remains that the prices obtained
have been higher than was expected,
and the shortage in the production has
been more than offset by the increase
IN price, which has been good ana
steady at an advanced figure all along
Wheat that one year ago sold for 40
cent per bushel mas sold this year at
all the way from 70 to 80 cents. In
fact, most any old kind OF wheat has
brought these figures. Aud yet, with
all the wheat of Middle Tennessee, q
good number Of Touring mills have
been forced to close down. or run on
half time, because OF tine shortage in
the crop. In addition to the good
price OF wheat, corn has sold at
profitable figure all long. Live stock
has been way up, ana those having
horses and mules for sale have been
able to almost command their own
price Poultry, also, has commanded
profitable prices. and cotton Is almost
as valuable as phosphate, though that
staple bears but scanty relation to
Maury County crops. In truth, only
two farm products may be SAID to have
caused disappointment to farmers In
his section this year, and they are the |
hay crop. and the vattle interest.
The prices for these have been low. |
Yet. Dalacing this against the other,
1t may be said that Maury County
farmers have done mighty well the
past year. and ''are satisfied with |
life.
