The West Tennessee Fair Association
at Union City is nearly ready to issue
its sixth annual premium list The
catalogues will be ready in few days
The premium list includes some extra
ordinary inducements in the stock line
that were never heretofore offered in
the way of increased premiums. The
premiums i'll the agricultural depart
ment have also been very materially
enlarged. Some very liberal special
premiums have also been offered in
this department. Special premiums of
$40 have been offered for the best sam
pie of corn alone. These are by the
Dahnke-Walker Milling Co. and the
Hardy Grain Co. On account of the
trouble over the running races last year
that feature has been dropped, but larg-
er arrangements have been made in
premiums and otherwise to substitute
good trotting and pacing races, which
properly belong to county fair. Run
ming races are intended principally for
a race track, and are often given too
much attention at county fair, caus-
ing other departments, which are sub
stantially better and more profitable,
to be overlooked. There is no reason
why the fair this year, if everybody get
together and concentrate their energies
in its success, should not be better than
it ever has been There is plenty of
material to make our fair second to no
fair in the State and second only to the
State fair. This year the poultry ex-
pert, W. r, Andrews, will have charge
of the poultry and agricultural depart
ments, and the prospects are that these
departments will compete with the
woman's department for stellar honors.
The departments are all complete in the
catalogue, and it will pay you to read it
carefully.

Must Have It.

While}the building boom is on would
it not be- well enough to begin figuring
on that custom house. Remember,
gentlenden, that we lost chances of tax
ing advantage of the appropriation for
a public building because the site was
NOT selected within the time limit. We
Rave already said enough about the lax
fty of public spirit in the settlement of
1.-THE site question. Union City business
gentlemen sometime seem to care very
little about public enterprise. But the
main view in writing this is to call at
tentlon to the fact that while it NAV be
easy enough to get the appropriation
when the time comes it will also be
easy enough to lose it unless it is some
body's business to look after it. Union
City was Indifferent before about this
appropriation, and but for the fact that
our city delivery and postal revenues
were III the lead in the Congressional
district, Congressman Garrett would
probably have given his time alone to
Dyersburg's claims. Union City doing
practically nothing toward. asking for
an appropriation, while Dyersburg was
holding public meetings and. sending
message after message to Congressman
Garrett and Senators Taylor and Fra
zler. Dyersburg even took census of
the city. That was the condition of
affairs. This paper and one or two
citizens, as far as we know were the
only ones taking any interest in the
movement. There should be a special
effort made by Union City people to
have this question called up at the next
session of Congress, if possible If left
to the regular routine, of course, it will
not be acted upon until the Sixty-first
Congress, which does not meet until De-
cember, 1910. That is the regular time
for appropriations for public buildings.
The bill should be called up under
special order in some way, if it can be
done, and the citizens of Union City
should get busy and see to it that moth
ing is left undone to obtain this appro-
priation. There will be nothing lost in
making the effort. If somebody doesn't
get interested in this matter and look
after it we guarantee that the whole
thing which was once secured will be /
lost altogether in both this Congress
and others for years to come Mr.. |
Garrett or any other member of Con-
gress does not feel at liberty to inter
fere in looking after appropriations for
local improvements unless the citizens
themselves indicate desire to have
such improvements. Union City should
by all means have this public building,
and it will be an inexcusabIe blunder,
an objectionable shame if it is lost.

In Memory.

John Andrew McClanahal was born
July 8, 1852, at Dixon Springs, Smith
County, Tenn, and moved to Obion
County with his parents in 1868.
He was married to Miss Sarah Nc
hurry March IL, 1898 To this union
there were two children born, Samuel
McMurry, who died in infancy, and
Mai Bryan, who is IS years old and still
survives. He was in the regular em-
ployment Of the N. C. & st. l.. Ry. Co.,
for 26 years. About years ago he had
stroke of paralysis in his left side.
The company hoping that he might re-
gain his health, sent him to Hot Springs
and also to Dawson Springs, but all in
vain In fact his wife had the best
local medical talent of the city. After
having another stroke Thursday morn
ing and one Saturday morning he
passed away July IL, 1909, at 1920
o. o'clock, age 81 years and IA days.
He professed faith in Christ during
the Gates revival in Union City, but not
being able to attend church, did not
connect himself with it, yet he lived an
humble christian life till death. He
leaves broken hearted wife, one
daughter, four brothers and one sister
and host of relatives and friends to
mourn their loss. His funeral services
were conducted by W. c. Sellers and
G. G. Newbill. His remains were laid
to rest at Mt. Zion Cemetery Monday,
July 10, 1909.

The Commercial has a communica-
ton from Jay" in this issue regarding
the construction of gravel roads, or hard
roads. We are right with him every
day in the week on this point. There
is no enterprise on earth that will pay
country as well as good roads and
good schools. There is not a single
proposition that offers as many advan-
tages in the way of business as the con-
struction of hard roads would be to
Union City leading from town in vari-
Gus directions. There is one point
however, in jays" article which we
believe could be improved upon. The
agitation of bond issue would cause
endless discussion, trouble and disagree
ment. The quickest and easiest man
ner to get at road making is for the
people to contribute by popular sub
scription to this enterprise. Union City
could easily afford to contribute thou
sands of dollars, and the people of the
country adjacent could very greatly help
us, in order to derive the many advan-
tages that would accrue in the use of
good, hard smooth surfaced roads.
There is no way possible to calculate
the extent of these advantages. Sew
ers, concrete pavements, and every
other public improvement combined
would be as mere bagatelle compared
with macadamized roads.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1909-08-20
Good Roads.

There seems to be disposition oc-
casionally for the people of Union City
to manifest an interest in good roads
leading into the town, and as citizen
and farmer will suggest that they need
not burden themselves with the whole
proposition; we will gladly meet them on
common ground in common interest.
A year or two ago we west of town
subscribed some $500 for a mile of
sample road, which was half the amount
required, and with that the matter rest
ed. l will now say we can raise SINH
lar amount to make just good gravel
road twelve feet wide, beginning at the
corporation line and running west on
the Union City and Lake road, one mile.
Now all we ask is Just enough assist
ance to get sample, after which, using
this as an object lesson " when the
best part of the dirt road is well
nigh impossible six months in the
year and barely tolerable the re-
mainder of the year-we think there
must surely be evolved plan by which
a satisfactory distribution of monies
raised by bond issue to satisfy anyone
if we who have the matter under advise
ment make the first donation to the
county.
It is not very muddy now, but there
is day soon coming when we will all
again talk roads. JAY.
