"The violent earthquake that de.
stroyed In March, 1912, the city Of
Caracas, in South America, appears
to have had some connection with the
shocks felt at the same time in the
valley of the Mississippi"
Judge Joseph Guild gives a char
actoristic account Of the earthquakes
Of 1811-12 In his "Old Times in Ten
nessee," now out of print. In this
interesting volume he says:
"The earthquakes of 1911 COM
menced on the 10th of December, at
half-past two o'clock in the morning,
and were felt at intervals ~p to 1919,
and as late as July, 1922. For two
or three months the shocks were fire.
quent, almost every day. Then they
gradually decreased In frequency
and took place at longer intervals,
which continued to lengthen until
they finally ceased.
"The water in the Mississippi near
New Madrid rose In a few minutes
IL or IA feet, and then fell like a
tide. Some lakes were elevated, as
the bottom raised above the common
surface Of the earth in the neigh
borhood, and still remain so. The
country near New Madrid was every
where broken up in burrows six or
eight feet wide and as many deep"
An historian gives what purports
to be the evidence Of an eyewitness
to the formation of the lake as fol-
lows:
"Col. Walker, of Missouri, who, in
company with an Indian, came over
the Mississippi river into Tennessee
for the purpose Of hunting on what
was then called Reelfoot Creek, in
December, 1911, stated that while
there hunting the earth began to
shake.
Becoming much alarmed he and
the Indian started to return, and
upon reaching the place on Reelfoot
Creek where they had left their ca
noe, they found that the earth had
sunk, and that the waters from the
Mississippi had rushed in and form
ed great lake, which they after
ward found to be 25 or 80 miles in
length, and from one to ten miles in
width"

the property of churches Or charitable
institutions, the inference to be
drawn being that if the amendment is
adopted such exemption could be
made. 1t is argued by some of those
who favor the amendment that it
would confer no additional powers
upon the tax commission but the
courts have held that thei tax COM
mission is supreme in all matters, not
specifically provided for by the legis-
lature. AS the amendment takes away
the powers conferred by the constitu-
ton upon the, legislature, it might be
held that this body would be unable
to pass any laws effecting revenue.
The amendment should be read with
care by every voter before he. casts his
ballot. and if he Is not convinced that
1t Is for the best interests of the peo-
pie he should vote against 1t.

LA TOILETTE A. DEMOCRAT.

VIM. T. LaFollette. brother of Sen
ator LaFollette of Wisconsin, has come
out strongly for the election of Will
liam ]. Bryan. Mr.. LaFbllette empha.
sized his decision to vote and work
for Mr.. Bryan by travelling with the
democratic candidate on his trip
through Wisconsin. Mr.. LaFollette in
formed Mr.. Bryan that he knew the
senator was at heart wholly in SYM
pathy with him and his platform,
several of the chief planks of which
have been and still are advocated by
the progressive Wisconsin statesman.
Said Mr.. LaFollette: Bob is simply
supporting Mr.. Taft for the sake of
party regularity, in much the, same
way as Mr.. Bryan supported Parker
tour years ago. His heart, however is
for Bryan and the principles for which
he stands. Bob ought to be democrat;
he stands for things which are demo-
cratic. l know the feelings Of the men
who are the supporters of my
brother in Wisconsin, and I know
that they are going to vote for the
Great Commoner."
