The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1910-11-25

The reported oyertures whereby the
fusionlsts and regulars in Tennessee are
to come together in a give-and-take
agreement sound just little bit fishy
Rumors and reports Of general and
specific nature have been published on
various occasions since the last election,
and all of them so far have been con
Trajectory and unreasonable. That any
man or set of ringsters is authorized to
make political deal that is binding on
the Legislature is calumnious rehec-
ton upon that body. The whole cam
paign has been contested to the bitter
end upon no greater reform in Tennes-
see than the purging of the State from
Just such a stigma We have no doubt
that all of this CUFF or dope" had its
origin in the mouths of political Cos
sips. 1t may be manufactured by
newspaper reporters who have an over
weening desire to cater to a venal taste
for political sensation. Whatever its
origin or foundation the practice should
be discduntenanced instead OF Haunting
it before the eyes of the reading public
as wholesome and digestible newspaper
matter. II the State is not yet rid of
these political property pirates the con-
stituted authorities when they do come
together should kick them out uncere-
moniously, whether patron saint or
devil. If that is not done then let the
voter remember at the next election the
man who has violated his pledges
There is insurrectiop,in both the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties, and
there will be considerable work on the
Augean stables before they are thor
oughly cleansed.

which might follow contract with th,
railroads for the parcels post. The ex-
press companies are mighty, but
compared to the railroads they are
merely infants. OF all the united inter
ests in the country the railroads are the
mightiest, and the influence they could
exert over government officials in
exacting tolls would be hard TO calcu-
late. It would be better a thousand
times that express companies be allowed
to continue existing business relations
than to depend solely upon the honor
Of the railroads and government officials
in effeeting a basis Of remuneration
for the transportation OF small pack
ages Of merchandise and mailable mat
ter II the parcels post is right in
theory why should there be limit in
weight and bulk to transportation con-
Quoted by the Government Upon the
same thesis that argues the parcels post
the Government should take charge and
contract for all the transportation, large
or small And what. would it mean?
The railroads could take the Govern
ment by the throat and squeeze out Of
it all that their good or bad intents
might dictate. The railroads could buy
the Government, soul and body, if such
opportunities are offered.
Is there man who has any regard
for the principles of Democracy ready
to offer the parcels post as a great patri-
otto or philanthropic idea. Why con-
tinue the old cry for low tariff, which
has been reverberating through the
press and public for years, if we are to
advocate parcels post and all other sorts
of governmental extravaganza. There
is no consistency in this kind of Democ-
racy. 1t is like sounding brass.
If there are any real, patriotic adj
vantages to be derived in an extension
Of our postal system let it be done in
penny postage. If the Postal Depart
ment has a surplus let it be returned to
the people in penny postage, which |
would not require an enlargement of
he bureau nor endanger the mercantile
progress of the smaller municipalities.
There is no Americanism in the par
,els post. 1t belongs to type Of gov
9rnment unalterably antagonistic to re-
oublicanism and democracy.

The citizens of Union City rejoice
with the congregation and the mem
bers Of the Methodist Church in this
community generally over the return Of
Rev. W. G. Sellers to this station. This
is the fourth year of the preacher S min
istry in Union City and the friends were
even more anxious than ever that he
should remain with us. Rev. Sellers is
one Of the best men in the church. He
is plain in speech and notable exam
pie of the normal man, but there is
depth Of character in bis life and wis
dom in his philosophy He is a man
of thought not easily swayed by the
winds, and wherever his home there re-
mains the footprints Of an honest man.

mentioned that were considered to be
available for the lot. Among these
were the lot opposite the City build

Coombs livery stable is. Another
place that was mentioned was the
ground just beyond the library on
Elm street, where the woolen mill

ANSON VILLAGE SEEMED
DOOMED TO BURN
With Aid From Madison Fire Is Con.
trOlled.

For little over an hour on Friday
noon it looked as though at least half
the village of Arson was doomed to
destruction by a fire which started in
the stable of S. E. Tinkham, First
street of that place. Before the blaze
was under control over $4,000 damage
had been done, one set of buildings
completely destroyed, another house
gutted. a church and several other
dwellings slightly damaged
At 11.50 Friday noon Mr.. Tinkham
was embarrassing his horse, when he
discovered that the structure was on
fire His automobile sat in the stable
floor and he had barely time to run
it out of the building. In doing so
he received painful burns about the
face and head. The horse. two hogs
and the carriages in the stable were
burned.
The fire spread rapidly to the
house, and practically, before a sim
gle piece of furniture could be re-
moved it was enveloped in flames
From the Tinkham house the strong
west wind carried burning cinders
to the roof of Lysander Berry's house
next to that of Mr.. Tinkham. and to
the Baptist church and the home OF
p H. Randall, Spear Hill, setting
them on fire.
The Berry house was gutted by thu
flames, but the stable and furniture
Nere saved. The church and Ran.
dali house were slightly scorehed. In
edition to these fires several build
ings in various sections of the town
were set ON fire by the cinders, but
no damage done.
As near as can be estimated the
total loss will be $3500, with an in
surance of $1,000; on the Berry prop
erty the loss is about $1,000 and the
insurance $500.
During the fire the Madison de-
partment gave valuable aid to the An
son department. call was sent tC
Skowhegan for assistance, but the
firemen from that place were stopped
before reaching Madison as the fire
was under control at 1.30.
