CENSUS FIGURES ARE CITED
Many Tennessee Counties Show
Decrease IN Population While
the Cities Are Growing

1t hos been shown by the census of
1910 in many states of the union, no.
tably New York, that the tendency Of
people to remove from the country to
the city is growing, and the same ten
dency is clearly shown in Tennessee.
The 1910 census shows that the coun-
ties of Shelby, Davidson, Knox and
Hamilton, in which are located the
cities of Memphis, Nashville, Knox
vile and Chattanooga, have increased
noticeably within the past ten years,
while many of the smaller counties
have shown but asmall increase, and
3S counties have. shown an actual de-
crease since 1900.
The counties which have shown a
decrease in the decade are Bra lford,
Bledsoe, Cannon, Chester, Decatur,
DeKalb, Giles, Granger, Hancock,
Hardin, Henderson, Hickman, Haw-
kins, Jackson, James, Jefferson, Lau-
derdale, Lawrence, Lincoln, McMinn,

IF MAD DOG CHASED
GIRL IN HOBBLE SKIRT

"The hobble skirt has nothing on
the hoop skirt that wore thirty years
ago; in fashion it merely shows the
opposite swing of the pendulum of
style, but it is not likely to last. "
Such was the opinion given the Bos-

birthday did not favorably regard the

eral assembly a large number of local
measures are passed. These acts
authorize bond issues of various kinds;
they relate to the control of schools;
they apply to the working of county
roads, and provide for other local
needs in certain counties or municipal

contain population qualification;
that is, they are made to apply to

In many instances this population

JOHNSON
CITIAN IS
PRESIDENT
SOUTHEASTERN
BASEBALL LEAGUE
SEASON TO OPEN MAY z
Directors Held Meeting Friday IN
Knoxville, at Which Salary
Limit Was Increased

An important meeting of the board
of directors of the Southeastern Base,
ball League was held Friday night in
the office of President Am. Gaines, and
much important business was trans
acted. The salary limit was increased
from $500 to $500, exclusive of the man
ager. Officers for the ensuing year
were elected, w. w. Miller, of Johnson
City, being chosen president, and it
was decided to play 102 games next
year, the season opening May % and
closing September 8. The question of
making the league an eight team or
ganization was left open until the next
meeting, will be held at Chattanooga
soon after the first Of the year
When the meeting was called to or
der by President Gaines, all of the clubs
had representatives on hand. Those
who attended the meeting were Nat
Hoyt, of Rome; II. f. Minis, of Norris
town; w. w. Miller, of Johnson City;
I'll. I. Bailey, of Godsden: T. M. Duck
EFT, of Asheville, and f. III. Moffett, of
Knoxville. Z. b. Fisher, secretary and
and treasurer of the league, was also
present.
The meeting was enthusiastic and
harmonious one, and it was the unani
nous opinion of those present that
prospects are very bright for most
successful season in the Southeastern
League next year. Although excellent
ball was furnished the fans in the
towns in the leage last year, with the
salary limit raised from 5000 TO $500 a
month, not including the manager, it
is a cinch that even better sport will be
provided for the bugs.
Inasmuch as the league was not or
ganized until late last spring, it was
not possible to start the season before
June s. Next year, the opening games
will be played May %, and the pennant
will not be won until September 8.
Only 81 games were played in 1910, but
1O2 will be played in 1911. Double
headers will be played on the three
holidays, Memorial day, Fourth of
July and Labor day. The receipts of
these days will be pooled, and divided
equally among the six clubs, or among
the eight teams, if two more are ad
mitted.
The following officers were elected;
President-W. w. Miller, of Johnson
City.
Vice President--John M. Graham, of
Rome.
Secretary -Treasurer-E b. Fisher, of
Morristown.
The following were selected to ar
range schedule of games: Frank Mof-
felt, of Knoxville; T. M. Duckett, of
Asheville; NJ. /. Gump, johnson City.
The next meeting of the directors
will be held soon after the first Of the
year and the committees will have
their reports ready for that meeting.-|

Changes in Population of Counties
Will Cause Confusion; 'Old BrindIe'
Can Now Craze in Your Front Yard

these local laws are made to apply to
counties for which they were not in
tended. 1t may be, too, that the coun-
ties for which a given law was intend
ed are, by reason of changed popula-
tion, made TO pass from under the
provision of such law.
One interesting feature of the situa-
ton growing out of the 1910 census is
the changes which will follow with re-
gard to the application of the Dortch
law. This law was by amendment to
the original statute made applicable to
civil districts of $500 population and
over. Later an amendment was passed
making it applicable to towns of $50
population and over in counties of over
$4,000 population. 1t will necessarily
follow that there will be some impor-
tant changes in the application of this
law under the new census.
