custom, and that the inhabitants
of this City may be more specifi-

|, Robt. B. Williams Mayor of
the City of Lawrenceburg, Tenn
essee-do designate and appoint
said day as Thanksgiving Day.
And do earnestly request and en-
Join the residents of this City to
close their business houses and
offices and to cease from their
daily vacations, and to assemble
themselves in houses of worship
or other suitable places, so far
as their opportunities will per-
init, to give thanks to Almighty
God for the manifold blessings
we enjoy. The year has brought
us, prosperity, peace, health,
and fellowship. We enjoy the
continued blessing of freedom
from the saloon traffic. Viola
tors of law stand prosecuted.
The day of the staggering
tough and street ruffian has pass
ed. The civic virtue of our peo-
pie that demanded temperance
laws, and enforcement of law, is
a matter of pride. And the re-
suits vindicates their wisdom.
The measure is no longer tenta-
tive but is an accomplished fact.
The general moral tone of our
people is improved, and their
ideals are higher. The loafer
and chronic croaker have lost
cast. Sobriety and industry are
habits that command respect and
social recognition. We are in
a period of material development
never before so generally enjoy
ed. Public service is better, and
public utilities are advanced.
The cause of education receives
increased attention, and is EN-
phasized. Our environments are
wholesome. We have passed UNI
touched by the communicating
death dealing diseases of the
tropics; and are also, far remov-
ed from the cold sterile sections
of long winters. The agitator,
the striker, and the great class
of burdenitg poor are not with
us; and on the other hand our
wealth is not so concentrated in
the hands of the few and used,
80 as to make the race of life I'M
equal in merit. Our little City
is at peace with itself and neigh
bors. Plenty is within our bor-
ders, with labor and capital EN-
ployed with each receiving its
lust rewa.d- The body of the
people are contented and pro-
gressive.
Therefore in the enjoyment
of these blessings it is due that
we pause one day in the year to
give thanks unto Almighty God
for His manifest Providence.
For the earth is the Lords and
the fullnesS thereof
In testimony whereof, l have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the Seal of the City to be hereto
affixed, at office in the City of
Lawrenceburg, this November
9th 1905.

THE BRITISH LIBERAL DILEMMA.

Lord Rosebery's speech Of Saturday strongIy
exhibited the dilemma which confronts the LID
eral party of Great Britain. At the present mo-
mont tho Conservative government seems about
at the end Of its career. 1t will probaDy soon
resign or dissolve Parliament and appeal 10 the
country. in which case it is generally assumed
the liberals will be returned to power. Nat
uralIy. then. this would seem to be a time for
the Liberals to "get together and present a
united front. so as to make their victory at the
noIIe as ereat as possible and to assure to their
government a stable and enduring tenure of of
fee Yet Lord Rosebery plainly serves notlce
that no such union is possible, that the Liberals
will 90 upon the hustings and to the polls Oil
yided and that the Liberal government on TAX
ing office will be confronted with one of the
most embarrassing dilemmas British politics
can provide.
Mr. Gladstone once said that Home Rule for
ireland blocked the way to other legislation.
To-day Home Rule blocks the way to Liberal
union. 1t is as troublesome an issue as ever.
Lord Dunraven's negotiations with Mr.. Red
mond and the governments great scheme of
land purchase have not disposed of 1t nor
abated its Importance. The Irish leaders make
it plain that they much set on repeal Of
the Union and complete legislative severance
from England as ever they were in Mr.. Par
nelFs day There is no use In resorting to gilt
fering generalitles." The concrete Issue is De-
fore the Liberals whether, on taking Office. they
will or will not move for Home Rule The
Irish leaders will press that question upon them
relentlessly, and upon their answer 10 it will
depend the continuance of that Irish support
without which Liberal control of Parliament is
scarcely to be expected.
Now Mr. Morley. who was Mr.. GIadstone's
closest associate in his Home Rule campaign is
understood to be in favor of granting the Irish
demands and it is intimated that Sir Henry
Campbell Bannerman, the titular leader of the
party, takes the same view. But Lord Rose
berry, who Mr.. Gladstone's successor as
Prime Minister, and whose cooperation is
widely regarded as Indispensable to Liberal
success, states "emphaticalIy and explicitly
that he cannot serve under that banner" 1t is
well known that there are other Liberal
leaders who agree with Lord Rosebery. be
sides vast numbers of Liberal electors through
out the country; so that If the Liberal
party, on coming into power, should commit
4 itself TO Home Rule, it would Immediately suf-
fer schism comparable with that which rent

ELErTRIC POWER IN OIL FIELDS.

Electricity is coming into favor in the Russian
oil region, both for drilling and pumping. At
present there are fully two thousand wells In
operation there, for each of which steam plant
of limited capacity-say, twenty-five or thirty
horsepower-has at some time been Installed.
That the individual user of power should provide
his own supply Is perfectly natural, Of course,
but production on a small scale Is far from be-
ing economical. Besides, there is danger that
destructive fires may result from the nearness
of the requisite furnaces to overfowing tanks or
from the opening Of new wells Both evils might
be minimized by judicious change of procedure,
and already steps have been taken to initiate the
reform.
A company has been formed which will erect
at Baku central station, where engines develop
ing at least 800 horsepower will be employed
to drive dynamos. The current thus generated
will be transmitted by cables to Sabuntsshi, six
and one-half miles away, and will be distributed
at that point to local patrons. 1t is doubtful
whether any existing steam plant will be dis
carded for an electric motor, but tnasmuch as
the demand for power is constantly Increasing
new requirements alone should soon create a
market for this supply. In time it is not IN
likely that the popularity of the reform will
make it necessary to increase the capacity of
the station but at the very outset the latter
nromises TO be able to accommodate at least
nfty customers lrdnsLulssIoA ny "he tlCo4is II
slight loss, but this is small compared with the
enormous saving effected by a wholesale genera
ton of power. 1t should be possible to supply
the latter at q much lower cost than has been
practicable hitherto and also TO reduce the fire
risk nearly to zero.
In the United States which divides with Rus
sia the responsibility of furnishing the world
with petroleum, this example may be wisely imi-
tated. Americans have the most extensive and
most wonderful transmission lines in existence,
and in few mines employ electric power to eX-
pei water, hoist and operate drills or cutting
machines We doubt if any considerable use is
made of 1t in the oil regions of this country. If
the methods in vogue here are wasteful a
reform in them might prove advantageous to the
consumer as well as to the producer.
