MISCELLANEOUS,
Resolutions.

Whereas, death has again cast
its dark and icy fingers upon our
highly beloved and most worthy
member of the Obion County Court,
]. t. Morris, who was summoned
from the walks OF men to enter into
the eternal home beyond on June
Is, 1905. Esq Morris enjoyed the
confidence and respect of all his
host of friends and acquaintance.
He was quiet and unassuming
gentleman, but firm and conscien-
tious in all of his convictions of
right and justice. He was kind,
courteous and respectful in his dali
ly walk and conversation of life.
He was a good neighbor, a highly
respected citizen and an honorable,
upright Justice of the Peace. He
was kind and Intelligent gentle
man in every sense and we believe
the world has been benefited by
his having lived in it. Some kind
word, precept or example of this
noble character may long remain
fresh in the minds of others, to lead
them onward and upward to a
higher and better life. He was
loyal and faithful in the discharge
of his official duties. Recognizing
the fact that he has outstripped us
and gone out into the great and
beautiful beyond, only . little in
advance of us, we should try the
more earnestly to conduct ourselves
in this life that when we are called
hence we can 60 prepared in peace
TO meet our dear friend and beloved
member in the city of our God.
Therefore be it
Resolved, That in his departure
from this world we recognize the
hand of God in the work, and Hesis
too wise to err, and too good TO do
wrong, and we humbly bow our
Wills to His sovereign mandate.
Resolved, That we tender our
deepest sympathy and heartfelt
coincidence to all of his relatives
and friends who mourn his death.
Our loss may be his gain and hence
we should strive only the greater
to meet him in Joy and peace on the
heavenly shore.
Resolved, That copy of this re-
port be spread upon the minutes of
the County Court, and that copy
of the same be furnished the family
of the deceased. Most respectfully
submitted.

OFFICIALS AND PASSES

Secretary Bonaparte, new head OF

ed and set commendable example in
returning the passes offered him since
he became secretary of the navy. He
has followed the example Of the Presi'

pay-as-he-goes in dealing with rail-
roads. aud he has set an example that
every man in public Office ought to
follow.
There is no satisfactory reason why
IA public servant Of the people should
hold free pass to ride on a railroad.
Pass-holding officials are divisible into
two general classes: those who accept
passes expecting to make return for
them, and those who accept them not
expecting to make return for them.
The one class is dishonest: the other
