Maury county carries balance to
its credit in the local banks all the
time, and a pretty good balance most
of the time, and a very large balance
some of the time, for which Maury
county gets no interest, more's the
pity. There is a bill pending in the
Legislature to provide for the deposit
OF these funds in interest paying
banks, and that bill ought to pass.

Mrs. Selma M. Holman, State Pres
ident of the w. C. T. u, in her tall
in this city Monday, went quite dis
lance out Of her way to criticise OK
Senator Erwin for his support of thu
:, Dispensary bill for Columbia, which
was up for passage before the Tennes
see legislature four years ago. 1t ap
peared from Mrs. Holman's writings
upon that question at that time that
she did not understand it then, and il
is equally plain that she does not un
derstand it now Mrs. Holman said
that that man Erwin seemed deter.
mined to pass that bill" but that she
was determined that he should not"
and she proceeded to congratulate her
self accordingly; and then she went
further and congratulated Columbia
that the bill had been defeated be-
cause, she said, now you will be rid
of the saloons entirely, while, II that
bill had passed you would have had
the dispensary indefinitely" or words
to that effect. If Mrs. Holman had IA
miliarized herself with that bill she
would have known that the bill itself,
in explicit terms, limited the life of
the dispenary to two years, and pro-
vided that at the expiration of that
time whiskey should not be sold in
Columbia at all; so that If that bill
had become a law, instead OF some
eighteen or twenty saloons doing bus
mess in Columbia these last two
years, there would have been neither
saloons nor dispensary. 1t would ap-
pear, therefore. that if congratulations
are in order at all, they should be
showered upon the saloon keepers for
having received two years lease of
life when the Honorable James B. Fra
zier vetoed that bill. But aside from
the merits of the bill, the Herald is
not willing to be silent when a speak |
err who never read the Dill, ana mas

It's provisions, comes to Judge Erwin's |
own home to make an unjust and I'M
attack upon him for doing
not only what he thought was right
and best at that time, but what the

sentiment of Columbia

The first game of base ball Of the

day at four o'clock when Columbia Mil

strong team, and the C. M. A.. boys
are far stronger than last year. Prac-
tice has been in progress for some

strength has been developed. 1t is

considerable progress by the howlers for "better conditions for miners in Alaska :"
 In Rampant district also there is not wanting signs in plenty that the ''good times" are approaching for those who are hungry for placer ground. So much localities that the supply of stake timber might have been decimated had claims been confined to the statutory 20 acres instead of the more convenient l60.
 Two years ago the association claim mania was in its infancy compared to its present lusty growth. Yet there are prospectors who can recall how even at that early date the ''system'' worked.
 The Beaver River country might be cited as an example. Prospects were found there and good many prospect ors moved in outfits to test the ground. They found that few people had laid claim to a territory approximately 50 miles square, upon which all others were forbidden to enter. In consequence the ground is untested, the region is discredted, and no one will venture in there again unless some gang concludes to organize and finance company to sell the right to prospect to some outside dupe.

JUDGE GREEN
 TO GO TO TANANA

Commissioner Green is to start to Panama this morning to take official action in the case of Mrs. Black, who is being held as an insane person.
 The unfortunate lady was first taken before Magistrate Bathurst at Panama last October. At that time her condi- ton was such that there could be no question of the unbalanced state of her mind.
 Later, however, she improved, and friends were led to hope that her ail- ment was only temporary After being cared for until the present time, she has not recovered, and it is now feared her case is hopeless.
 By postponing the hearing of the in- quiry the woman has been permitted to remain near her relatives and friends, and in reach ot the professional services ui the medical officer oi the army pest. In the federal pail at Rampant, ot course, she could not have been properly cared iur.

Just a Few Straws Nodding in the Breeze Now -- Look Out for the Cyclone By and Bye.

The Fairbanks Weekly Times of Jan. l9 contains an interview with man who had just returned from Birch creek Circle district, where he and his party had staked a twenty mile stretch of bench placer ground With few small lots held on prior location, the party of five men had taken up the entire valley.
 "Every man had a double-bitted ax and pencil" said the man. We had plenty of powers of attorney and went at it systematically to get everything that had not been taken. Anything that we overlooked while I was there has been gathered in since, for the two partners who staid behind were swing ing their axes when we got away. We have staked with the idea of form ing block of ground which We can eventually offer to capitalists as a big hydraulic or dredge proposition. :. :. "We were able to make discovery on every group, as all that is necessary to get gold is to pan on the rim. Failure to get a color is the exception rather than the rule

 The paper assures it's readers that the stalking was 'properly done" on this occasion, each group (of 160 acres being correctly marked with reference to some natural object.

 Claims to 26,720 acres of placer mining ground on tributaries of Wood and Tatlanika rivers were filed yester- day, Attorney Tozier acting on behalf of the Panama Alaska Mines Company. The amount of fees was the greatest single contribution of its kind ever paid into the recording office here.

GIFTS FOR AN'' INVALID.
Christmas Remembrances That May
Be Made at Home.


Be Made at Home.
Many useful Christmas gifts for In
valids may be made at home. A case
for the hot water bottle is one that
calls for skill with crochet hook and
knitting needles.
Heavy lingering and bone needles
will be required for this, the bag being
knitted on two needles. A frill is Gro
cheted, also of wool, and sewn around
the three sides and the mouth of the
case. When the water bag is inserted
the top is drawn together by running
a ribbon In and out, tying the bag In
place, and 1t goes without saying that
this Is much more pleasing and slightly
than the usual flannel case. To match
this a pretty covering for hand
warmer may be constructed on similar
lines, except that both ends are drawn
up and finished with tassels and loops,
though one ls left open to receive the
warmer. Little bottles filed with hot
salt, then tightly corked, are slipped In
the case and the open end drawn to-
gether. When complete II Is not unlike
the silk crochet purse of long ago, as
the hand warmer, though matching the
colors of the hot water bottle case, ls
made Of heavy silk in crochet.
Then, too, the sofa rug. that will
keep slipping of, may be made to re-
tain Its position by having an under
portion-say half the length of the rug
Into which the feet are slipped, thus
having 1t up to the knees both over
and under the legs. From the knees
upward the rug may be drawn up or
thrown back, as preferred, because this
part Is single.
Bvery one knows how pillows are
apt to slip, whether the patient is lying
or sitting In bed, and so a holder Is
quickly and simply made by sewing to
a strong pretty ribbon stocking sus-
pender clasps, which will grip the pill
