morning, when the court fined Melon

The case was not decided by Judge

the defendants attorneys expected to

the city contending at the trial be-

In the meantime the Supreme Court
Of Tennessee passed on the question,

The decision has resulted in put

WHAT The KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps
Us Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes through
the kidneys once every three minutes
The kidneys filter the blood. They work
night and day. When healthy they re.
move about 500 grains Of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part of this
impure matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symptoms
pain In the back, headache, nesvous-
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, govt,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
biity, drowsiness, dropsy. deposits in
the urin, etc. But if you keep the filters
right you will have no trouble with your
kidneys.
Mrs. Ella Moore, 200 w. Market St.,
johnson City, Tenn, says: II got a
supply of Doan's Kidney Pills from the
Whitehouse Drug Co. when was suffer-
ing from backache, caused by my kid

" Aunt Lottie " was one oil
the most interesting takers, she

and had a most remarkable mem
DRY. Her stories of the personal
history of prominent families of
the years agone were most enter
tanning and as told in her unique
manner furnished an insight to
the lives of the pioneers of this
section. Her knowledge of this
territory in book form would
have been a valuable asset. 1t
was a real pleasure to find her in
a reminiscent mood and take a
tip back Is or 80 years and hear
her tell of the happenings of
those days involving the familiar
figures of the times all of whom
are long since dead.
She was a good woman, typi-
cal mountain spirit and after
long and useful life, full Of
storms and sunshine, she has
laid down to rest, weary with the
weight of many years of waiting,
in more or less solitude, for the
summons to come to her final re-
ward. May her soul not rest in
piece.

LARGEST NUM-

Washington, Dec. 27.-The
caucus of the democrats of the
house, who were elected to the
sixty-second congress to be held
January 10, will be notably in
terestlng because Of the fact that
it will assemble the largest num-
Der of new democratic congress-
men that have been in Washing
ton since December 1891, just 10
years ago.
The number entitled to partic-
pate in the caucus is 228, of
whom 147 are members of the
present house and just 81 are
new members-elect. For the
first time in many years north
ern state, New York, will have
the largest number of democrats
that come from any state, TWEEN
ty-six Gus of the states delega-
ton of thirty-seven. States that
in the present house have no
democratic representatives will
have one or more for the next
house who can share responsible
tiles of the caucus. We have no
democrats now from California,
Connecticut, Maine, Michigan,
Rhode Island and West Virginia;
they will contribute to the party
in the next house.

At the close of the second day

Many farmers arrived yesterday
and will remain in the city dur

The address of Mr.. Coleman on
strawberry growing was the first
topic of the day, and this subject
was ably discussed. Following
this address was a very interest

subject of soil fertility.

commend Increase IN House
From 391 to About 435.

Washington, Dec. 28.-Repre-
sentative Crumpacker, chairman
of the census, said yesterday that
he expects to see a reapportion-
ment act passed before March 3.
He and the members of his COM
mittee are proceeding on that
theory and shortly after January
5 will report a reapportionment
bill to the house. 1t looks as if
there will be about forty-four new
seats added to the house, bring
ing the total to 435.
While there is a disposition
against charging the house, it
seems certain that the house COM
mittee will not recommend that
the house remain where it is at
391 members. In order to do this
the ratio of representation would
have to be slightly more than
230, 600 inhabitants per member
and fourteen states would be sub
jected to a loss of representation.
The membership of the house
left at 391, the following states
would lose seats:
Two seats, Missouri; one seat
each, Tennessee, Maine, Virginia,
Iowa, North Carolina, Kentucky,
Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, Ne
braska and Kansas.
This proposition would have no
standing in the house census COM
mittee. The vote in committee
would be at least ten to six
against retaining the present
membership because seven of the
fourteen states destined to lose
under such an arrangement have
members in the committee. The
members whose states would lose
are Crumpacker, of Indiana, chair
man; Burleigh of Maine, Langley
of Kentucky, Slemp and Hay OF
Virginia, Murphy and Hamlin of
Missouri, Moorehead and Goodwin
of North Carolina and Patterson
of South Carolina.

Later in the afternoon Prof.
Keffer took the members of the
institute to the orchard of Major
Gildersleeve, where he made a
practical demonstration of the
latest methods of fruit tree prun-
ing.
The theme of Prof. Phillips
for the afternoon was feeds and
feeding. This subject was treat
ed in somewhat technical man
ner, the purpose being to prepare
the farmers for a more practical
lecture on this subject at a later
date. During this discussion it
was shown that alfalfa is being
grown successfully in this imme-
date locality-on the Horton-Gil-
dersleeve farm a yield of six tons
per acre was attained this year.
At 7 o'clock in the evening Prof.
Phillips delivered practical ad-
dress, using for his subject educa-
tion for country life.
This afternoon the convention
will meet at the conrt house at

Day by day the farmers meeting is
growing better. Yesterday was by far
the greatest day the farmers have had
during the session.
Six counties, Washington, Greene,
Sullivan, Unicoi, Carter and Johnson
are well represented in this meeting.
More than one hundred practical farm
ers are in actual attendance. This is a
splendid body of progressive men, and
we are pleased to have the short course
in agriculture held in Johnson City.
| AT the close of the work on Wed
nesday the instructors were happy and
the farmers were jubilant and merry
Every address and every talk of the
day appeared to be fraught with en-
thusiasm md unusual interest marked
the entire proceeding of the day. Pro-
fessors Coleman, Phillips and Keffer
each appeared to be at his best and
every farmer present was anxious to
learn real practical lesson.
Prof. Keffer received a letter from
Miss Mary Temple of Knoxville, Tenn,
in which she expressed great interest
in the agricultural work now being
done in johnson City. She also en-
closed check for $4,000 as a dona-
ton to apply on the expense of this
work. Miss Temple is a daughter of
the late Judge o. P. Temple, who was
himself greatly interested in agricultu-
raj developments in East Tennessee
AS token of the appreciation of the
services of Judge Temple and the do
nation from his daug. ter the organiza-
ton adopted as its name and will be
called The o. p. Temple Short Course
in Agriculture.
Judge Temple was native of Greene
county and was educated at Washing
ton College. He was indeed a great
mana jurist, statesman, Chris
tian.
The afternoon session was conducted
in the courthouse and large audience
was present--perhaps the largest that
has yet attended any of the meetings.
The question of good roads was dis !
cussed, and perhaps more enthusiast
tic good roads meeting was never held
in Washington county. The meeting
was informal and many practical talks |
were made all preparatory to the good
roads convention, which will be held |
in J onesboro in the near future. Among
those who discussed the proposition |
were Prof. Phillips, Phil s. Taylor, |
Alonzo Stout, w. +. Carter, Joe Mil
