MAYOR ncLELLAN's VACATION.

Mayor Mcclellan starts on his vacation to
Europe with a declaration concerning the fall
campaign which might have been expected from
him and an expression of confidence which will
provoke speculation. He says that it is already
certain that the city will send TO the state
convention a delegation which will support an
honest man for Governor and give him honest
issues TO fight for. I'VE have never won in
state or in nation" he declares. when were
mot frank with the people and honest in our
promises and in our candidates. Returning to
the subject, he says: Il take pride in the
knowledge that New York will be ittingly rep
resented in the convention and that its vote
will be cast for the preservation of our prin
"ciples and our party cleanliness"
No lexicon is needed to read the meaning of
that description. Mr. Mcclellan would not re
gard the nomination of Mr.. Hearst as the pres
ervation of party principles or cleanliness, but
a surrender to false doctrines and a seeking
Of spoils among the husks He believes the
promises of the municipal ownership party to be
delusive and dishonest, and his words indicate
fixed belief that the Democratic party will
adopt neither its policy nor its candidate. Is
this a case of a mans believing what he wishes
to believe, or is there deeper significance in the
utterance? The Mayor and Mr.. Murphy are
well understood TO be rivals for the control Of
Tammany Hall, and Tammany's voice will be
potent in the next state convention Is it to be
inferred that in spite of this rivalry they are
both agreed TO oppose Mr.. Hearst and that
all the recent tenderness of Mr.. Hearst for Mr..
Murphy has been in vain? Or does 1t mean that
with the aid of his young Warwick from Buffalo
the Mayor has the Murphy forces in the minor
ity in spite of their belief to the contrary and is
able to leave the city and the country in calm
assurance of we'll buttressed power?
The Mayor is entitled TO his rest, and all his
fellow citizens will wish him pleasant and
profitable journey. The city will not grudge him
his two months abroad, but his absence for that
length Of time while his enemies in Tammany
Hall and outside of it are left busy is somewhat
remarkable. 1t bespeaks either great indffer-
ence or great confidence

tigate us. We refer you to our indors-
ers, our county officials, or any bust
ness man in our town, in DeKalb coun-
ty, Middle Tennessee; also Greene and
Sewer counties, where we delivered
every tree satisfactory with our GUS
toners. We made the largest delivery
in Greene county that was ever made
and the trees give perfect satisfaction,
being the Seeding root trees. If any
leading citizen of Greene county don't
tell you our trees are Seeding Root
Long Life Tree and the finest trees
that ever came to that county, we will
make you present of an orchard; and,
farmers, II this don't convince you, we
will furnish you list of names of men
that have bearing orchards from this
company and if they don't say our fruit
is as good as we represent it and we
furnish long life tree and a regular
bearer and the latest improved fruits
that are adapted to your climate, we
will furnish you an orchard free of
charge. This nursery can furnish you
few varieties of fruit that have taken
the premium at the Worlds Fair that
no other nursery has got. We will show
fruit and trees against any nurseryman
in the United States, and the citizens
Of Greene and Washington counties
will plainly see and understand why
their trees don't live and bear like the
old fashioned seeding root tree did
years ago.
When we make our delivery in No
vember, 1906, then the valuable secret
will tell itself, when the people can see
our trees and the great difference there
is in the long life tree and the short life
tree. We ask you not to buy from any
other company until we see you and ex-
plain our variety of the latest improved
fruits and our method of doing business
You are Instructed by a nurseryman on
day of delivery how to cultivate and
prune, when and how to prevent rab-
bits, insects and diseases, and in every
thing that should be a benefit to our
customers in regard to fruit growing
for us and our customers.
Farmers, we are now asking you to
only try us and be convinced. You will
be so we'll pleased with yeur trees being
so much nicer in every respect than
you ever have seen before that we know
we will get your future orders. Our
trees can never be improved to be any
longer lifed, as they have all root that
nature gives them and live just as long
as your old time Seeding.
Every farmer that takes this paper
and reads this ad and shows same to his
neighbor shall have a special price or
his trees, SO we kindly ask you to hold
your order for W. F. and f. @. Sanders

The banking business is generally
considered the most important in the
entire calendar of human activities, in
point of fact is collateral to all other
departments of effort. 1t therefore nat
urally follows that the strictest rules OF
integrity and equity must govern in
this career, as the business is of such
character as to be quickly impaired if
the sli ghtest lack of confidence is en-
gendered. 1t will be found, however,
on the most critical examination that in
the long list of business vicissitudes
and disasters that there are by far rela-
lively fewer engaged in the banking
line who betray their trust than that of
any other single line that could be
named. 1t is also further
ESTABLISHED FACT
that as the years roll on, more intlexibly

mulgated by the banking associations
themselves, and every effort is directed
toward making the banking department
invincible.
The light of wisdom rules strongly

the principles and methods of banking,

about finance affairs in the past are now
rapidly dissolving. But a few years
back the banking atmosphere was
wreathed with more or less austerity,
stiffness and formality intervened be-

eral public. 1t was not in the nature
of affairs for this to last forever. For
merly not any attention was directed
to educating the public in the methods
of banking. All this is now changed

effects resultant. Within the past doz-
