The past week in real estate circles

as ga tense week" " The remark made
by one of tae prominent realty dealers
of the city late Saturday to the effect
that 'match might set fire TO the
thing at any minute' is in keeping
with the general feeling Apparently
everything has been quiet, and the
number o large transactions recorded
has been small. Everything has gone
forward, however. the same rs ever
with the usual activity in building and
the customary large number of invest
ors looking for opportunities TO snap
bargains OF all kinds,
The remark made above is under
stood to mean that the skirmishing he.
tween property owners and would-h
purchasers for the past few weeks is
likely at any moment to break into dc
cided action with Il resulting rush for
the purchase Of many properties, E'oI
number Of weeks dealers have been
operating on quiet market, aud a
number of large transactions or Il ten
dency to push matters might cause de-
clded activity on all sides and even in
the warm season. when there is GEN
orally reason TO expect quiet in realty,
there might be heavy demand for prop
erty and a general stampede of BUYERS
to get in before there could be an in
crease in values.

POPULAR MEMBER OF COLUMBIA
BAR ANNOUNCES HIS CAN
DlDAcY.

The announcement of ]. T. Nc
Knight. contained in this issue of The
Herald, for the position of County
Judge, greatly enlivens that race and
insures a warm contest for the posi-
ton.
1t is generally conceded that Mr..
Mcknight will prove strong candi-
date and his friends predict that he
will be among the leaders. There
are few better known men in Maury
than Mr.. Mcknight. and he numbers
his friends in every section of the
county. Young, capable, aggressive,
it is realized that he would fill the
Office most acceptably, if elected,
and in offering for the place of County
Judge he is standing purely on his
merit. 1t is his fitness that lends con-
fidence to his friends. Although pos
sessing a spine and taking sides on
all public questions, Mr.. Mcknight
is never offensive and has made few
enemies by doing so. He is mem
Der of the Columbia bar, graduate OF
Cumberland University, has had sew
eral years experience as a lawyer and
is ia addition a first-class accountant,
in every way capable of serving the
county we'll both from a business
and legal standpoint. Mr.. Mcknight
is a native of Marshal county, where
his father has the position OF
Chairman of the County Court for
many years. Prior to entering the
law he taught school for number of
terms. He took literary course in
Central University, Kentucky, prior
to entering the legal department of
Cumberland. If elected there is no
question but that Mr. Mcknight would
discharge the duties of the position
with ability, faithfulness, energy and
integrity.

voted 100000 for the school, and the
city has donated the Athenaeum
grounds and $4,000. AS a number of
other Middle Tennessee towns have
made handsome offers, this sum will
hardly be adequate to secure the
school.
The preliminary logrolling to secure
the schools is already fairly under
way. Memphis and Jackson had del
egations in Nashville Friday setting
forth their claims to the West Ten
nessee school, and CookeviHe and 9th
err Middle Tennessee towns have also
sent delegations before the Board.
While Columbia has sent no delega-
ton, It is the purpose Of the local
committee to give the visiting com
mittee, which comes here this fall, a
reception that win properly voice the
sentiment of this community towards
securing the school.
