convince me that the bill should be
passed. When the bill was brought up
last Thursday evidence was brought
before the committee to show that
many of the names on the petition sent
in by Shipley were placed there with
out authority, kilograms and letters
were also produced showing that names
had been signed to the petition without
the knowledge or consent of the per-
sons whose names appeared.
"Mr. Shipley knows that l was SIM
ply requesting the 5000 from him on
personal grounds just as he had bor-
rowed money fromme. He knows that
his failure to send the money was due
to the fact that he didn't have it at
that time and that was not influenced
in the least by his failure to send the
money. He knows that his insinua-
ton that was influenced by his fail
ure to send the money is al infamous

mended that free female help should
not be allowed anywhere within the

tron, is praised for her work.
The report deals at length with the
Brushy Mountain prison. The condi-
tions there, too, were found good. The
committee inspected the Herbert Do
main, too, and recommends that the
domain should be thoroughly investi-
gated before any development of the
property is attempted. The committee
is of the opinion that there was undue
haste in purchasing this property, and
that proper investigation of the coal
producing possibilities of the same
were not made. The immediate pros
pective examination of the property is
recommended.-Nashville Banner.

Eighty per cent of these samples We're
found to be short in weight, some of
them being nearly three ounces off
weight. Short weighing and measur-
ing, according to DR.. Brown, are some
what prevalent in many localities, and
in spite of rigid laws upon the subject,
there is little enforcement of them.
There is no one held responsible for the
enforcement of these laws, for the most
part. DIR. Brown suggests that the
standards be turned over to his office
by the Legislature and that he be given
authority TO make certain investiga-
tions and recommendations.
He has given out the following state
ment covering the entire scope of The
subject:
"fhe matter of weights and measures
has recently received all over the Unit
ed States great attention and there is a
pronounced movement for uniformity
in these matters, and that each state
shall correct its own deficiencies. This
office has done some work in this state
of such character; for instance, of forty
odd samples of butter recently examin-
ed, all of which were bought for a
pound, over so per cent were found de-
ficient in weight, some weighing as
low as thirteen and fourth ounce.
''It is obvious that the loss in money
in such a case would be about Z cents
per piece, and that pound of this
character, selling at 80 cents would in
reality cost the purchaser 81 cents.
