yet there is some Illicit liquor selling in
all the prohibitory counties and con
slant stream of jugs from the wet to the
dry counties, for many Of those who
formed the habit when we had the sa-
looms, still order their liquor from dis
lance and drink it.
No one believes that there is SO much
stealing and murder as there would be if
we had no law prohibiting these things
and no one advocates the abrogation of
these laws because they are violated
Soone fully acquainted with the stu
alton in Tennessee believes there is so
much liquor sold as under the saloon
regime. Yet because these laws are
occasionally violated, a few people think
the liquor laws should be repealed, and
the saloon restored.
The great majority of our people stand
by the Four lille Law and oppose its
repeal; its benefits to the state are pro-
nounced Even those who doubt the
lpropriety of extending the provisions Of
the law to the larger cities, testify to its
good effects in other parts of the state,
and the state press is almost unanimous
in standing by the law.
Testimony gathered from all parts of
the state show everywhere an increase
of from ten to fifty per cent in all kinds
of business since the saloons went out.
| The banks have never before handled SO
much money. They not only get the
money that was once spent for liquor,
but the wage-earaing capacity of oul
people is greater as they drink less
lqnor There is no open saloon to tempt
our boys Even were there as mucl
liquor drunk as before il would still be
worth while to have its sale under the
ban of the law. The only lines of bust
ness that do not claim to have increased
under our prohibitory laws are the mag
istrates' courts, the city recorders, The
undertakers, and other institutions o.
like nature. Union Signal.

We have hem here in Tennessee,
Which we hunt with hounds in great

Wild turkey, too, are plenty here.
But hard to get, same as the deer.
Then quail and squirrel, 0 what a snap!
Can get them plenty without trap,
Rabbit, o'possum, wild goose and fish
Are plenty and make a delicious dish
Come down. and look, and hunt,
and fish,
Select a home to suit your wish,
Good bargains here for you and me,

As to the crops you neei not fear,
For some of them you grow two a year.

Why Organize a W. c. T. u. in
Lawrenceburg.

The work is new to us lis true but
withal we see patent a few reasons for
answer to the above question.
One because the drink evil is the
greatest obstacle there is in the way OF
the eyangelization of the world for
Christ, The open saloon and its attend
ant evils are hedging up the way for
the glad triumphal coming of King
Jesus to reign In righteousness, as Lord
of all.
We see the affairs of the churches al
most devoid of the young men aud the
pit falls of vice crowded with them.
We should organize for union of
effort. Many consecrated mother and
wife, and sister has looked upon the
sad conditions brought about by this
recognized great iniquity," and has
realized the hopeless task OF rightlng the
wrong.
The churches acknowledge the evils
of intemperance ami are doing some
good work in periodical temperance
Sunday School lessons, ami other conser.
vative remedies; but too many members
notwithstanding or possibly because Of
the enprmity of the evil, show u dispo-
sition to evade responsibility.
The w. 9. I. T. does away with de-
nominationa lines gives aroused ant
consecrated workers an opportunity for
combined effort. Such union means
strength, and such concert of aston
under G,l means victory at last.
Lastly the organization of white rio
boners strives to remove or render harm
less every pitfal Of vice in the way Of
unwary feet; at the same time it empha
sises,in every Legitimate way whaleve
is ennobling' and elevating to tn
human race,

prohibitory laws are failures. The latest

to my knowledge is reported in midas

that more intoxicating liquor is now
drunk in Tennessee than ever before,

LET US HEAR FROM OTHERS

It's quite interesting to note the
wonderful progress our little town and
surrounding community are making. En-
ergetic move is now being made 10 con.
struct new school building at this
place which will enable lis TO establish
the best school in the county, our school
at this writing is well attended and
peacibly moving on to success not with
standing the fact our building is not
good. The farmers and citizens gener.
ally are enjoying the beautiful days of
this month. The county annual Insti-
tute has been announced for four weeks
SO understand. have not seen the
announcement. | will say l believe
that four weeks is too long to continue
acounty institute, unless its results or
the benefits to be derived from it were
of greater magnitude than they are in
Lawrence Co.
1t will cost near $40 90 to attend the
institute counting time worth at least
Sl.O0 per day aud expenses of attend
ing $l.O0 per day for 30 days. and after
it Is over what have you received to com
pensate for your time and expenses?
you have received instruction from All
Instructor given you by the generosity of
the state, and but very little of that in
struction can he used il the public
schools of Lawrence Co., then
you get the m,th,ls and expert
ence of the county's best teachers which
is all right and can after be successfully
used. | do not take the position that
the institute is worthless but will af.
firm that a four weeks institute is toe
expensive for the teachers of Lawrence
County. The school terms are short and
the teachers are poorly paid hence the
institute should be conducted with these
facts in view. You say it will make
better teachers to have longer institutes
then | will say that the teachers are
good enough for the pay they get. 1t
will take one month at least Of the
teachers salary to pay institute expenses
! The duration of the institute should be
settled by the teachers themselves. Nc
other teacher in this County has higher
regard for institute work than / have
None other enjoys the work more, but
do not feel that it is exactly the right
thing to do, when you require fellow
to pay more for job than he can realize
