1t was reported that the work
on the bridge and the lake ex-
cavations at Mckinley park are
progressing nicely and it is believed
that all of the work there will be
completed before the extremely cold
weather sets in. The board men,
bers requested that contractors hav-
ing work on hand rush the work
TO completion as il is desired that
everything be completed before
winter.
Mr.. NAPLES said that Supeiin-
tendent Frank CLOSER of the elec-
trio light plant wished TO know
whether the board would entertain
proposition to light the arches on
the square every night in the week.
He stated that the light company
will be willing to pay for the
light for three nights during the
week if the board will pay for it
on the remaining three. IF the
business men about the city desire
the lights turned on every. night it
is probable that the board will take
up the proposition of the company.
Clerk Fies reported that council
had instructed the board to nego-
tiate for the purchase Of Main
street entrance 10 Lincoln park
It is believed that an entrance to
the park can be secrued at a
smaller cost now than q few years
later. The members will see several
of the property owners in the
near future and will probably make
arrangements for an immediate pur-
chase.
Street Superintendent Blum was
instructed to raise the sidewalks
on Girard avenue and Franklin
street to the proper grade.
At the meeting Of the board of
health the sanitary officer reported
one new ease of typhoid fever. one
ease o f diphtheria and two cases
of measles.

Washington. d. c.. Oct 8 :
Al. G. Fields, the minstrel man,
invoked the interference Of the in
terstate commerce commission to
get for him reduction of pas
senger fares cn southern railroads

Unless the commission can come
to his relief, Fields says, Dixie

education, for bis entertainment is
sat once amusing, edifying and IN
struetive." He himself is a "pub-
lie benefactor.D
But since June ! the southern
railroads have refused to give his
company the cnt rate in passenger
fares Of 1 Ia cents mile, be-
fore allowed, and Fields says he
cannot longer afford to teach cake

There viii be new candidat,
10 the field next year for the State
Senate from Weakly, Obion ant
Lake counties. The young attor-
ney, 0. Spradlin, Of this city, ha:
concluded to make the race. This
determination was reached after
considerable deliberation, and, we
are informed by Mr.. Spradlin,
after the solicitation of number
of friends. OF course it is not as
common as sometimes supposed
that a man is induced to become a
candidate on the strength of solicit
tations alone, and Mr.. Spradlin
does not wish it understood that
his candidacy is based wholly upon
that ground. He simply wants to
represent the counties named in
the Senate of the State of Tennes-
see, believing that be has the abil-
ity and patriotism to serve them
we'll in that capacity and that his
services to the party as county
committeeman and 10 other ways
entItle him to the consideration
of the voters. Mr.. Spradlin is an
attorney with growing practice
and some experience in law and
politics. He is a straight Dem.
ocrat with a good record of party
loyalty and service. He is now a
member of the County Democratic
Executive Committee. He is SEN
sible of duty and alive to its i'm
and if his aspirations
should be realized would devote
the same energy and application
to the duties required and expected
Of a representative in the State

the premiums have been increased
to large sum. The Woman's De-
partmeDt will be beauty this

ment will have more attention this
year also, as we'll as every other
department of the fair. In a
word, Union City and the West

Madison County investing il
gravel roads,
Because they are enjoying and
will enjoy benefits and advantages
worth more than all those which
have been named. Because the
people OF the rural districts, no
matter how remote, are placing
themselves in easy access of a
good market for all their products
at any and all seasons of the year.
Because they can at all times enjoy
many of the advantages that the
resident of the city can at mini
mum expense of living and mar
keting and at the same time the
independence of country life. Be
cause jackson is creating a market
that is rapidly oyershadowing and
eclipsing all the towns in adioin-
ing counties. That is the greatest
secret of all, and that is why Glib
son and other counties are cIamor-
ing to get in the gravel road band
wagon. People are not going to
refuse to accept accommodations,
and when you build good roads
right up to their doors they will
gladly take advantage of them.
w hen Madison County builds
gravel roads to the county lines
the people in adjacent counties
nearby to the distance of several
miles will be happy to take adj
vantage of them. Thus you can
get an idea of the inducement
which is attracting the investment
in gravel roads.

improving at the expense Of adj
iacent counties-that is the secret.
Of course the people of Obion
will wait until the counties
all around us have built hard roads.
We will wait until they have in
lugurated the plan and put it in
'orce 49, the hard roads scheme
md robbed us of our trade, and
hen, when it is too late to bring
rade to our towns from remote
sections, we will begin to press

We will be anxious of going into

0 recoup our lost business, but the
eturns will not be forthcoming.
Then it will be that those who
oR discount Judge Lawson's judg-
nent will say that he was not a
alse prophet then they will say
hat Judge Lawson's opinions we're
twenty-five years in advance of

The dormitory proposition for
the Union City Training School
is on foot again, and this time
there are signs of business. Every
one comedies the value of this sort
of an institution and everyone is
willing to take an interest in it.
The only trouble to overcome is
diverting the attention of business
men from absorption in personal
matters long enough to organize
and conduct campaign in the in
terest of our schools. The Com
mercial Club has announced its in
tention to improve all our schools.
Neither High School nor Training
School should be sacrificed in any
particular for the benefit of either,
but there should be a combined
effort for both schools. With d
dormitory adequate for all pur-
poses in connection with the Train
ing School and the Commercial
Department added to the Pu bile
High School, the population and
business interests of Union City
should be improved at least twenty
per cent, and that is q very con-
sentative estimate. With suit
able dormitory Prof. Mathis as
sures us that he can bring at least
100 boarding pupils to Union City.
The Board of Education has an
nonnced that none but an abso-
lutely first-cIass teacher is wanted,
with salary commensurate, for the
Commercial Department of the
Public High School. That will
bring another hundred pupils to
Union City. What better advan-
tages can be had for the same
money! These we are going to
have and the full realization Of
every advantage accompanying

The Board of Education has SET
new precedent, and the man who
has the inclination, If there is such,
to suggest that this Board will take
backward step is evidently scent
ing cold trail. Two new depart
ments-an Art Department and a
Commercial Department. are to
be added to the Public High School
and they are to be filled by abso-
lutely none other than the most
thoroughly equipped and compe-
tent teachers. The Commercial
Department is an advance move
ment in the public schools of the
South. Very few towns in Ten
nessee, can boast of this advantage,
and the fact that the Board has the
backbone to make these additions
shows that it is imbued with the
spirit of the school age. Not only
are the new departments to be add
ed, but the grades are to be aug
mented and strengthened. The
pupils are to be thoroughly drilled
in everyone of them. No grades
are to be dropped. but if neces-
sary one or more will be added.
Then the public schools of Union
City are taking forward step and
the Board of Education is to be
complimented for the movement.
