A lodge was organized at Obion
Monday night in which much inter-
est was shown. Eight persons,
four ladies and four gentlemen,
we're initiated. Four gentlemen,
Messrs. w. l.. White, Quinn, Aiken
and Brown and one lady, Mrs. Ell
len Gilchrist, members of the Union
City Lodge, attended the organiza-
ton. Mrs. w. l.. White was with
the party. The ladies went on the
train and the gentlemen drove
through in surrey. They found
an elegant supper awaiting them at
the Commercial Hotel, the party
being entertained by Mr.. G. G..
Hughes.
1t was an enjoyable occasion and
many of the ladies and gentlemen
of Obion did all in their power for
the comfort and pleasure of the
visitors.

John Babies is young burly ne

night The officers corralled him
Tuesday evening late and Mayor
Walker gave him exactly what he
is dealing out to all of them on this
charge-'Fifty dollars and cost,
sir' Attorney A. N. Moore, who
represented the defendant, gave
notice of appeal to circuit court, but
the negro could find no one to sign
the bond and the $50 fine was paid
and the negro disappeared before
the State could get hold of him.
Marshal Pardue was ably assisted
in this case by Night Patrolman
Alfonso White.
Several minor cases, such as
kid fights, plain DRINKS, ETC.,
have been disposed of and all in all
this has been very busy and pro-
fitable week in the Mayors court.

J.. Protection "Robbery?"

The Democratic assertion that PRO
lection is robbery" that the tariff is
tax ON the American consumer. is best
refuted by examining the effect of pro-
lection on the tin plate industry. When
the Mckinley bill was passed nine-tenths
of all the tin used in this country was
manufactured abroad. To-day the manu-
facture of tin is one of the most impor-
tant of our home industries, contributing
millions of dollars annually to our ma
tional wealth. But this is the least part
of the story, in 50 far as the tariff is
commemorative price of tin began to GO
down in proportion as the United States
began to produce it, and the American
consumer has never paid under the Me
kinley tin tariff anywhere near as much
per pound for tin plate as he paid when
