any benefits the majority Of the
people Of the county are to get out
of it. The petition that mas cir
culated in this the Sixteenth Civil
District said Cor they claimed it

court expense or that part OF the
for which this special court
was to benefit was to pay it. Now
it turns up for the tax payers to
pay it. We as taxpaying people
are burdened with tax. Not half
Of the people in this district can
pay the tax already due for last

1t seems that the people of Mum
bers Seven and Sixteen especially
would be "from Missouri on this
proposed scheme OF Uncle Billy's.
He tells us that the poor people
down IN his country are so poor
that they just can't afford to make
these frequent trips to Union City,
whereupon they are forced or di-
yorced of their small earnings, so
and attractive to their
families-and to others, and for
this reason he is preaching and
sending out missionaries with mon
ey galore to spend, from one end of
the county to the other. Now it
strikes me that charity should
show itself at home first and then,

truck. If | had a young mule,
could always find a purchaser at q
good price for the animal. If
had chickens to sell / could get
more for themsin Union City than
| could have gotten in Memphis
or Nashville. always found q
ready market, at good prices, for
my hogs and cattle, hay, grain, etc.
And the same benefits are to be
derived when it comes to buying.
Why, everybody knows that you
can always get what you want at
Union City, at live and let live
prices. 1t is the best dry goods
and clothing market in West Ten
nessee. People from Trenton,
half way to Jackson, come to I'm
ion City to trade in preference to
going to jackson, for they can get
better bargains in Union City, and
have better stocks to select from.
And the same is true in every 9th
er line, buggies, harness, furni-
ture, lumber, groceries, etc. Why,
bless your soul, the farmer that
was compelled to 60 to court at
Obion, and did his selling and
buying there on that account,
would lose much more than the
time and expense he would be out
on account of some measly little
old lawsuit.
Then leaving all of that out of
the question, is it right for the
taxpayers of the county to have to
contribute two or three thousand
dollars a year for the benefit of
Obion and a few people in outlying
districts? say not, and believe
that most of the people in Number
Nine are of the same opinion.
Mr.. w. II. Gardner in an article
in last weeks Commercial says
that we already have enough bur
dens to bear in the way of taxa
tion, and he is exactly right. He
also sensibly stated that if a court
is established at Obion as a matter
Of convenience to some people why
in the name Of justice ought 1t not
to be done at WilsonvilIe, EIbridge
Dr. Troy. And he is right again,
for we have as much right to a
Law Court at Elbridge as has
Obion. In fact a Law Court at
Elbridge would benefit more peo-
Die than would one at Obion.
However, we are not anxious to
AK ourselves even for a court at
,ur nearest town, for we can get
llong well enough without it.

success and appreciated, be passed
down the line and without string
to it. Now, it may be that Uncle
Billy, who is very wealthy man,
has expended and scattered, al
most broadcast, great deal of his
means in support of those he says
are so poor and for whom he now
begs the people to levy upon their
lands taxes sufficient to run his
courts, but l would like to have
some means of knowing how many
would stand up if the proposition
was made, who personally know of
such a condition. Think of it,
people-for it seems Uncle Billy
can't-of how far all this money
spent in getting up his petition,
which is as long as moral law,
and the lobbying money spent at
Nashville and other money which
he is still spending in the carrying
on OF this missionary work, would
have gone towards aiding those
who are so unfortunate down there
as to occasionally be summoned as
witness in court in Union City.
The first weeks campaign con-
vlpced Uncle Billy that the people
didn't want a branch Chancery
Court at Obion, whereupon he
withdraws the Chancery division,
and on the 25th they are going to
convince him that they don't want
any part of his "tom-foolery."
On the 25th the people of the
lower end of the county are gong
to show uncle Billy their rights as
free American citizens.
Uncle Billy says that the people
of Obion are fighting for mercy and
justice, while the people of Union
City are fighting for spoil. Now
wouldn't that jar you2
What pity that Mr.. Barr and
other good citizens, now deceased,
couldn't have lived in this age of

OOA v W @Ab AO'
Mr.. Editor: | notice that the
people of Obion and vicinity, we'll
not so many in the vicinity either,
are working like beavers to secure
a Law Court for Obion. | don't
blame the Obionites, for if | lived
there and owned property, guess
| would be selfish enough too, to
want to have court in my town,
notwithstanding the cost to others
and the disadvantage to many more
than it would benefit.
But, | don't live at Obion, and /
do not see why any one but resi-
dent of that town, or a nearby
resident, should wish to have a
court there. AS it benefits nobody
else, why should the people over
all the county be taxed for Obion's
sakeg
| notice in the papers that the
Clerk of the County Court of Glib
son County states in published
and sworn article that the branch
court at Humboldt cost the people
of Gibson County 81 SOB 35 last
year. Well, that's right snug
little sum for the people Of Gibson
to contribute for the benefit of
Humboldt. OF course the majority
of the citizens of that county
would be glad to vote the court at
Humboldt out Of existence, but
the court is established, possession
is nine points Of the law, and there
the court will remain. The people
of this county had better look ut
the thing in that light, for once
the court is established at Obiop
there it will remain. And while it
will not cost the taxpayers at the
present time probably more than
twenty five hundred dollars a year,
after awhile the Obionites will ask |
the people to tax themselves to
pay twenty or thirty thousand dol
lars for a courthouse and Jail.
