sistent that the amount axed BY the
amendment was excessive and. il
adopted would result in either the
PRACTICAL adjustment OF saeh tele-
phones or else in a raise m the scale
"a prices charged the .ubiic. which
would amount to the publics paying
the tax in the long run. The house
committees receded by degrees from
the amendment and at 1929 O'Clock
SUNDAY morning the two new confer
ence committees agreed on a yearly
tax of So uron such telephones.
Not much difficulty was experienced
By the senate and house conference
committees in reaching an agreement
on the general appropriations bill.
The house receded from its position
Of non-cOncurrence in regard to prac-
tically all of the amendments tackled
on to the measure by the senate. The
only instances in which the senate
receded from its amendments increas-
ing salaries were those OF raising the
aIary of the Acknowledgement from
$4,000 to $4,000, an dof increasing the
salary Of the chaplain at the state pen
itentiary from $500 to 5000.
The ffty-six,h general assembly will
go down to posterity as history
making body and a very large MAORI
ty of the measures enacted into laws
By it almost unquestionably will meet
the approval of a large majority of the
people of Tennessee. One of its ac-
tions. however, that is likely to meet
an early condemnation by the voters
and taxpayers of the state, is that
of its reckless raising of salaries in
all quarters when the Ice once Is
broken. The committee which pre-
pared the bill included such increases
as it thought were justifiable and nee
essary, and it can be said to the credit
of the house that in the matter of sal
airy increase it adhered strictly to the
recommendations of the committee.
But when the bill got to the senate
the f1oodgates were opened, and while
a valiant few fought hard to stem the
tide, their efforts were in vain. Some
of the increases made by the senate
no doubt were deserved but it was
no time to be making salary raises
with large deficit apparently staring
the state treasury in the face, caused
principally by appropriations previous
ly made in special acts, most notable.
among these latter being the general
educational bill The finance, ways
and means committee already had
made such salary increases as 1t
deemed a crying necessity.
In the raids upon the treasury the
lead was taken, as the journals of the
two houses will show, by the local
option" and administration element In
nearly every instance. Where one
state-wider gave his vote for an in
creased appropriation for any purpose,
in most instances three administra-
tionists gave theirs.

MASONS HOLD
GOOD MEETING
EUGENE GUEST TAKES DEGREE
RESOLUTIONS UPON MAJOR
wHiTTHORNE's DEATH.

Mr. C. C. Miller, of Claiborne Lodge,
Nashville. presided at the Masonic
meeting Thursday night, raising Mr..
Eugene Guest to the sublime degree
/ of a Master Mason. Five Entered
! Apprentices and Fellow Crafts we're
examined at the same meeting, and
next Thursday night there will be a
called meeting for comforting degrees.
The following resolution upon the
death of Mai. Whitthorne was adopted:
To the W. NJ, Wardens and brethren
of Columbia Lodge No. 81, Free and
Accepted Masons:
We, your committee appointed to
draft resolutions expressive of the
sense of this lodge on the death OF
brother WILLIAM J. WHITTHORNE,
beg leave to report as follows:
Brother Whitthorne was full OF
charity, kindness and brotherly love
for his fellow-man, especially those In
distress. He was true to every trust
and responsibility placed in his hands,
and always seemed moved to act with
the sole purpose of helping and bene-
fitting those with whom he came in
contact who needed his assistance.
While he was never active in lodge
work he had a profound veneration
for the Order, and esteemed its teach
| ings and tenets in the highest degree.
AS a private citizen he was ever
Jealous and public-spirited in promot-
/ ing and furthering the best interests
of the community. AS a legislator he
was wise and prudent immovable by
the most powerful efforts brought to
bear to swerve him from right action
as he saw it for the welfare of the
people. AS a soldier of two wars he
was brave and skillful, his conduct
uniformly eliciting the APPROVAL OF his
superiors and the affection of his sub
ordinates.
Therefore Be 1t Resolved That the
Masonic Fraternity and the public at
large have sustained an irreparable
loss in the death of this whole-souled
member of the Order.
That we extend to the family of our
deceased brother our heartfelt sympa-
thy in this great bereavement.
That the furniture and jewels OF
/ this lodge be draped, and we wear
the badge of mourning for thirty
days.
That a Memorial Page be set apart
on our Records, and copy of these
resolutions be sent to the family OF
brother Whitthorne and published In
the local newspapers
Thursday, April 10Th, 1909.

The senate chamber as unblushlngly
declared it to be II o'clock, midnight,

ONLY a few senators and representa-
tives together with two or three
nevsnaper reporters, remained on the
scene of the last gasp of the 1fty-sixtn
assembly. Some OF these slept gently
and peacefully in their seats; some va
ried the monotony by whistling and
SINGING snatches of tunes, both old and
new, while few wandered disconso7
lately through the chilly corridors, the
7roue of which echo the footballs of a
Tennessee statesman with precisely
the same cadence they do those of a

which some of the members doubtless
resent if they have observed 1T, as a
great piece of insolence.

senate and house waited upon the gov

assembly was ready to adjourn sine

Senators Turner, Holiday, Parham
and Blackburn and Representatives
Garden, Newport and Worley
The time of adjournment would
have come several hours earlier than
it did but for the house and senate
becoming so badly tied up on the rev.
enue bill. Committees held three
lengthy conferences before an agree
ment finally was reached. The first
of these conferences began shortly
before midnight and it was more than
three and half hours later before
the committees got together.
The bone of contention between the
committees was the amendment tack
ed on the bill by the house, and which
was offered by Representative Hick-
man of Davidson, placing tax of $50
per annum on each telephone instru-
ment in pay station booth. The
house committee were insistent upon
adhering to this amendment, while the

owners. No settlement OF the strike
that has been in progress for several
days is in sight, according to indi-
cations today.
It had been rumored that the en-
ployers had agreed to an advance Of
% cents a day in the wages Of the
men.
However, the strikers soon learned
that these reports were groundless
when the owners decided to make the
shutdown of their mills complete.
The latest phases of the situation
will be discussed at a meeting held
this afternoon by the strikers.
Some of them declare that the own
ers had closed down their mills be-
cause they could not employ enough
men to work every department.
