LIQUOR SELLING IN MARION
Disgraceful Drunken Row Near
Grundy County Line.

TRACY CITY, Tenn, March 27.-
(Special) On last night crowd OF
boys started to go to VIM. Johnson's to
a dance on the headwaters of Little
Sequatchie. From the best informa-
tion obtainable, too much liquor was
inside the gang, which stirred up their
heroism to boiling heat. One Morgan
Lankford collared Theodore Shadrick
and choked him a little. About that
time another ofthe crowd tapped Lank-
ford with whiskey bottle that put
him out of business. Then Henry
Parmly cut Theodore Shadrick on the
arm and knocked him down, when
Shadrick began to use his knife OF
Parmly to some purpose. The result
of the battle was as follows: Parmly
severe wound in the side. Morgan
Landlord a severe lick on the head and
Theodore Shadrick cut on the arm.
DIR. Hays of Tracy City, attended the
wounded, at least he waited on Parm-
ly. | suppose no one is dangerously
burt, but enough blood was drawn to
cool off their heroism. So much for
John Barlycorn. Keep fooling with
him, boys, and you Il get there after
while. The above occurred in Marion
County and not in Grundy | don't
youch for the correctness of the above
in full, but three were hurt in theil
drunken row and it comes out that
liquor is being sold on Shadrick Hill
and the women are up in arms against
il. We would like for the Marion
County authorities to investigate the
supposed lawlessness and stop It,
Wherever liquor is sold a small hell Ii
created. Women are good informers

Is Candidate to Represent Marion
in Legislature.

Mr.. and Mrs. Virgil |. Holcomb and
little daughter, of Monteagle, were
here Monday morning en- route to
Monteagle after stay in Jasper since
Friday. Mr.. Holcomb had been over
TO the county seat to consult with lead
ing republicans as to his proposed can
didacy for the legislature as represen-
tative of Marion County, and his call
Monday on the News was to instruct
it to announce him as a candidate.
He is clean cut young man OF thirty

and at present is managing large
store at Monteagle for his father, +
w. Holcomb He is married and mas
three children. He is a graduate or
