murder of one of Tennessee's noblest
sons. Carmack was shot down in
cold blood on the streets of the CAPT
tai city of Tennessee. His assailants
were convicted by an impartial jury
and duly sentenced, the supreme
court of the state later affirming that
sentence. Yet Governor Patterson
takes it upon himself to nullify that
judgment, overriding the higher court
with the sang froid Of the professional
thug. The action of Governor Patter-
son means that the friends of the gov
ernor have the right to murder at
will and set at naught the opinions
and findings of lawfully constituted
courts. His open defiance of the
states highest court is the unfurling
of anarchy's flag in high places; it is
an open call to civil strife and blood
shed. State lines are obliterated in
this latest outrage upon law and jus.

Newmark & Orde tloated high on
that food Of apparent prosperity
that attends business we'll con-
ceived and passably we'll managed
The Boom and Driving company made
money, of course, for with the margin
of so per cent or thereabouts necessi-
tated by the temporary value of the
improvements good years could hardly
fail to bring good returns. This, it
will be remembered, was stock COM

ness the two men embarked on sep
arate copartnership.
Orde lived at ease in q new house
Of some size, surrounded by grounds.
He kept two servants. A blooded
team of horses drew the successor to
the original blackboard Newmark
owned sail yacht of five or six tons,
in which. quite solitary, he took his
only pleasure. Both were considered
men Of substance and property, as in
deed they were.
Immediately after the granting of
the charter to drive the river the part
ners had offered them an opportunity
of acquiring about 3O.OOO,OOO feet of
timber remaining from Morrison &
Days original holdings. Orde finally
completed the purchase on long time
notes. Below the booms they erected
a mill. The following winter Orde
spent in the woods. BY spring he had
banked about 100000 feet.
At the end of the fifth year the op-
portunity came to get possession Of
two lake schooners. Orde at once sug-
sested the contract for steam barge.
Towing was then in its infancy. Orde
thought that a steam barge could be
built powerful enough not only to car
~ its own hold and deck loads. but to
tow after 1t the two schooners. New
mark agreed with him. Thus the firm
went into the carrying trade. The
most important acquisition was that
of the northern peninsula timber.
Most operators called the white pine

haustible. But Orde saw the time not
far distant when the world would be
compelled to look elsewhere for its
lumber and he turned his eyes to the
almost unknown north. After long
investigation he purchased 3OO.OO0,O0O

A stableman picked his way out over
the booms with message for Orde.

"That will be about it," agreed Orde.

Precisely" said Newmark.
"Put l hat all the eggspence of driv-

Orde chuckled.
"HeinZman," said he, I'VE aren't

you're lucky to get out so easy. If

you'll lose more than half 80 out

The place where the steamer was
