your contract, you are not carry
ing out its spirit, and / therefore
urge that the Southern Railroad
at least, having directly made
this contract with me, represent
ing the State, shall rescind this
order and put these mileage books
on 40 heretofore.
"Thls action only makes the
travelling public hostile to the rail-
roads. The other course makes
them friendly to the railroads.
The only result of your ~actionIis
to dissatisfy the travelling public
with the rate law and if you enter
into the spirit of our agreement,
you cannot desire to do this. I
therefore urge that you have this
order changed yourself, and try
and induce the other railroads to
do the same, for such action as
you are now taking will certainly
bring about further friction be-
tween the Legislature and the
railroads, which will be of no ben
eft to the roads. Notwithstand-
ing the decision in the North Car
DINA and Minnesota cases, you
know as well as I, that the State
is not without its remedy, (which
can be effected by the Legisla-
ture,) and neither the railroads
nor the State can gain anything
by having a spirit of hostility ex-
listing between them.
Believing that after thinking
the matter over and seeing that
this order is not In the spirit OF
the contract made with the State,
you will remedy this wrong by
changing this order, / am, with
respect,
"Yours very truly,

True it is that the temperance
law now effectiYe in Henderson
county will remain unchanged if
the state prohibition bill should
tail of ratification at the May
election, but this is no reason for
the neglect of a plain duty by any
temperance advocate. Some Sec
tions of the State are in the grasp
of the liquor interests and the
moral forces, in these communi-
ties, are lacking in strength to
free themselves from the shackles
OF this great enemy to the higher
life. Liquor is an evil and the
question of moral right, rather
than local self government and the
much used and often abused term
"local option should receive lit
tie consideration in this contest.
The issue is clearly drawn and
there is no middle ground. Every
voter must stand for the right, or
surrender to the wrong. Whether
the proposed measure is ratified
or not, conditions in Henderson
county, with reference to making
and selling liquor, will remain I'M
changed. But are not we our
''brother's keeper"

To The Watt
BrySon Camp

Another one of our members has
passed away, in the person of our beloved
comrade B. T. Morris, who died sud-
denenly about the middle of September,
1907, He was si%xty-nine years of age.
He was born in Polk county, and all his
life had been spent In Polk and Hen
derson counties and was perhaps as
we'll known as any citizen in either
county. He enlisted as a soldier July
Is, 1862, and vas elected captain of Co.
81 Gath N. G. Regiment, and served as
commander until the capture of said
company at Cumberland Gap, Tennessee,
His reputation as a soldier was good,
He was always at his post ready and
willing to discharge any duty involved
upon him. When this can be truthfully
said of a soldier it is sufficient to chron-
icle his uame with the bravest of the
brave, none could do more. It means
simply this, when ordered to lead, how
ever dangerous or difficult to do so, he
led, when asked to follow, though the
POAI was S4OdN anu JIG grim ASdDSE Was
busy, comrades falling all around, none
followed more closely or went farther
than he did. 1t is a proud heritage for
his children to know that he was faith
full as a soldier TO his country that be
loved so we'll. He was beloved by his
comrades, and all, even to this day,
have nothing but good and kind words
to say of him. He was a Methodist of
the Methodists, faithful and Jealous in
all things that tended to the upbuild-
ing of his Masters Kingdom.
The life of the soldier In the army
surrounded as they were by so many
corrupting influences, far away from
home and home restraints was such that
many were led into various sinful and
evil habits, but amid all these surround
ings u comrade stood the test and
remained throughout that trying period
steadfast to the truths hat he had i'm
bibed in his early youth. His conduct
and bearing among officers and men
was always that of a christian gentle
man. He was not ashamed of his relip-
ion and the Master he served, and had
the moral courage to exemplify his
christian character when the Occa-
sion demanded, A comrade said to the
writer that at night before retiring to
his humble couch his voice could be
heard in devout prayer to God, while
in adjoining tents could be heard hila-
rious voices of those engaged in games
of chance.
Capt. Morris held various offices of
trust in this and Polk county and no act
of his public life ever furnished his goou
name As a nan in private life he was
good hearted and affable, and all
who met him in business or social life
had implicit confidence in him. AS
comades we will miss that hearty, kind
handshakes which were wont to greet
us, but humbly sumbit to the divine
providence that has taken him away.

will vote for prohibition, all school
teachers are morally certain to do
likewise and church members who

they have made must fall in line if
they expect to retain the conf

matter. These influences supple

WHERE R WE AT7

After more than one hundred
years of waiting and frequent agi-
tation the Hamiltonian idea of q
centralized government has pre-
vailed and the principle advocated
by Thomas Jefferson, of a govern
ment by the people, becomes a
nullity. In the recent decisions
handed down by the United States
Supreme Court in the North Car
DINA and Minnesota cases regula-
ting passenger rates, the Federal
judges are upheld and the right of
States to control public service
corporations appears to have been
set at naught. The long estab-
lished principle of States Rights,
guaranteed in the eleventh amend
ment to the constitution, has been
abrogated, by one sweeping blow
at the hands of our highest tribu-
nal, while inferior Federal court
judges are given license to ride
rough shod over the will of the
people. We have, indeed, fallen
upon strange and dangerous times.
True, the question of Jurisdiction
only was considered, Governor
Glenn having succeeded in reach
ing a compromise upon the prin-
ciple point involved, but it is
plain to see, now, that the State
would have lost upon every issue
involved in the controversy. The
court is decidedly Hamiltonian
in it's remarkable decision and it
bodies no good for an outraged
public sentiment. This surpris-
ing conclusion of the Federal Su-
preme Court indicates clearly the
wisdom exercised by Governor
Glenn and the General Assembly,
in accepting the proposition for a
compromise with reference to
passenger rates, provided the rail-
"keep the faith" Only
one of the Justices, Mr.. Harlan,
of Kentucky, dissented, but he
unquestloned authority in
sustaining his position and there
IS little doubt that he is entirely
correct in his conclusions, How
aver, the majority rules, but the
have their relief at the bal
.ot box. The time for action has
arrived when the question of
States Rights shall be settled for
Ill time.

eight dollar hogs. All farm products
are high, and you are able to price
your own products. These prices have

Private John Pierce, of the Hen

morning by Marshal Cox for being
drunk and riding his horse on the
sidewalks, and the usual fine OF five
dollars and trimmings assessed by
his honor, Judge Wallace Hancock.
Another member of the same COM

IN the afternoon was sent back to

In the afternoon private Maracle,
of the same company, while under
the influence of liquor, disobeyed the
orders of Capt Walker, the COM
handing officer of the company, and
in an alteration drew his gun.
Others of the men interfered and no
trouble, save much excitement among
the people, was caused. Maracle
came into court Tuesday and admit
ted himself guilty of having been
drunk and disorderly, and was fined
by Judge Hancock, Capt. Walker,
in both cases, paid the fines of his
men, saying that Judge Hancock
had done only what was his duty, as
the men had violated the law, and
should be fined as other people for
what they had done.

and spent the afternoon mixing with

down from Gracep Maj. Bassett
undertook to seach the passengers,
but was finally stopped after having
searched a number, by some OF the
passengers refusing to be searched.
This action bf Maj. Bassett caused

stopped by the man at the other
