Tennessee Division o. 9. V.

COMRADES: From copies of oui
constitution, bylaws, and circular
letters sent out, you are doubtless
aware of the objects of this organi
zation, also that its completion will
take place on Thursday, 18th Of
September next.
BY order of the General com
handing this meeting of delegates
to perfect our organization, will be
held in the city OF Nashville on the
above mentioned date and the place
of assemblage in that city will be
hereafter announced.
Thus far, the camps of the State
have had no voice or representation
in the administration of Confeder-
ate affairs in Tennessee. They
have held no State reunions of their
own, nor have they been permitted
to participate IN the annual reun-
ions of the State Association of
Confederate Soldiers, which is COM
posed of bivouacs. The sole cause
of their disability, isolation and os-
tracism is the want of just such an
organization as this we are forming
and as exists in every State in the
South except Tennessee. By rea-
son of death, disability and dis.
lance the attendance of old soldiers
at our general association reunions
is yearly Diminishing, and it is safe
to predict that in a few more years
these general reunions will cease to
be held. Hence the Importance of
becoming attached toand identified
with legal State Division of
Camps and having annual reunions
within the limits of our own State.
Every camp in Tennessee should
belong to and be represented in the
State Division of United Confeder-
ate Veterans. Such membership
will not interfere with bivouac or
CARNATIONS, local or State, but will
bring all camps into one Division
in consonance with like Divisions
of Camps in all the other States.
We therefore urge that you call
your members together at an early |
day, forward your application for
membership and appoint delegates
to represent you in Nashville on
% next,
The dues of 10 cents per capita
to the State Division are not paya-
bic until June, 1906, hence il is not
to remit any dues with |
your application.

Citizens Sued For 500, 900.

30, Citizens of Hickman, you
M ust learn your proper station"
Says old King Beer.
Now, look a-here,
You amt no Carrie Nation"
Hickman, Ky, July 1.-THE
Cook Brewing Company, of Evans
vile, Ind, has sued the people OF
Hickman for 100000. The citizens
will unite and fight the case to the
bitter end.
Over a year and half ago the
Cook Brewing Company placed a
beer house here, and as this was
and is prohibition town, it caused
vast amount of trouble. Citizens
decided it would be best to close up
the beer house, and on June IS,
1904, business men and others, to
the number OF nearly two hundred,
got together and took the mana
gers, Lee Perry and Lindo Muir
ply, both formerly from Mayfeld,
Ky, and gave them so many hours
in which to leave the town, and
told them if they were not gone by
that time, they would be further
dealt with.
They then took all the beer from
the house, packed it in wagons,
and brought it to town, where they
put it in car, ready to be sent
from the city at once.
There we're rumors ahoat soon
after this that the company intend
ed suing the town, but they took
no apparent steps in the matter
until recently, when summons we're
served on eighteen of Hickman's
best citizens. Among them we're
the following:
r. T. Isler, express agent; Algie
Blakemore, citizen; Capt. H. A.
Tyler, retired lawyer; r. T. Tyler,
retired lawyer; c. G. Smith, mer-
chant; DR.. Prather Curtin, Finlay
Randle, merchant; Jim Hunt, citi-
zen; Tom Dillon, Jr., city marshal;
Henry Helm, citizen; Greene Walk
err, merchant; Henry Amberg, mer-
chant; ]. Sproalin, contractor; DR..
J. M. Hubbard, Fl. Hodges, Dr. S. |
K. Davidson, Chas. Jackson and |
W S. Allen.
Each Of these gentlemen was
sued for $4,000, making a total Of
$4,000.

we live in land OF light and liber-
ty; that many things sacred are
becoming but mockery; that truth
and honor are regarded too lightly
by an increasing number; that true
citizenship has reached low ebb.
The church is teeming with hypoc-
risy, and that which is sacred is
made a mockery of. That truth
and honor are held too lightly by
the masses can be verified by any
one who will take the trouble to do
so. That true citizenship has
reached low ebb is verified by the
fact that minor and more heinous
crimes go unpublished all over the
land, because true citizenship is so
dormant that it will not cause citi-
zens to report crime and m1sde-
meanor to sworn officers whose
duty it is to investigate and bring
the criminals 10 Justice, and in
many instances where crime is re-
ported the criminal is whitewashed
by some one high in power, or it
trial is gone into, it is but mock
cry and justice is defeated by, the
conniving of those who pose as eX-
amples Of truth, morality and true
citizenship, and ofttimes the cloak
of Christianity added There are
rumors of recent crimes committed
in our own district that should be
investigated now and if found true
the criminal brought to justice and
not merely whitewashed.
Do U-Know it is high time that
truth. morality, honor and true cit
izenship throughout this broad land
of ours was arising in its might and
placing its seal of condemnation
upon hypocrisy, untruthfulness,
crime and dishonorable acts Of
every kind. II this is not speedily
done, ere many decades the increas-
ing rottenness will overcome all
truth, morality, honor and true
citizenship. U-KKNow.
