Live Towns Can Stop offenses From

Live Towns Can Stop Ofenses From
This Source if They Choose.
From at least two major points of
view earnest eommendation is to be
given to any campaign against the au-
tomobile smoke nuisance in streets
and also to the movement to compel
the operators of such vehicles to stop
epilling oil on the pavement or road.
Both these practices are indisputably
unpleasant and offensive and probably
Injurious and dangerous, and both are
susceptible of abatement. There can
be no question of the right and power
of the health and police departments
to deal with such matters.
The occasional emission of smoke
from automobiles Is probably unavoid
able and excusa BILE. But for a car to
run mile after mile with a dense trail
of acrid smoke pouring from 1t is not
eXcusable. 1t is not necessary, and if
1t were 1t would constitute pretty
strong argument for excluding the car
from the highways altogether. The
smoke is certainly exceedingly I'M
pleasant to the senses. and in many
cases it may be positively Injurious to
tie visual and respiratory organs of
those who are exposed to it.
The spilling and stopping of oil on
the streets until they are saturated
with it and dotted with puddles of it
are also ineXcusable nuisances. 1t
fills the air with a bad smell, it makes
the streets dangerously slippery to
walk on, and it often is a cause of
soiling and practically running cloth
ing and other articles Now and then.
as in the case of smoke little oil
will, of course, get spilled on the
street. But there is no reason for
any such wholesale effusion of 1t as is
to be observed III this city. Either a
little more care or the provision of
drip pans to catch 1t is all that is
needed to abate the nuisance
The other point of view from which
both these practices are to be regarded
g is that of the selfish interest of those
. who are guilty of them. 1t is we'll
a known fact that smoking motor is a
t motor which is being improperly used
and is therefore being injured The
j very conditions which cause the smoke
3 cause injury to the mec chanism. Thus
e the chauffeur who permits his car to
8 smoke is inluring the car as well as
n affiictina the public.
q OF course in the other case the Oil
which is poured on the street is oil
wasted and that means increased ex-
$ pense of operating the car If the
e abatement of these nuisances meant
$ increased expense to the owners or
8 drivers of cars 1t should still be in
q sisted upon for the welfare of the pub
, lie. But since. on the contrary. it will
, mean . decrease of their expenses and
e therefore the promotion of their own
z good there can be no reasonable re-
sistance or objection to It,
y The town authorities should be ever
s. vigilant against ofTenses Of this char
y acter A concerted crusade might be
II Instituted by citizens OF any town and
the offending automobile owners made
\ to answer for their carelessness. fol
carelessness 1t is and nothing else.

MORE PEANUTS IMPORTED.
Uncle Sam increases His Liking Fsr
Coolers.

Coolers.
It may have been due to the increa SO
in the number of peanut eating fans
at the baseball games or it may have
been because of the more extensive de
mands Of the confectioner but the fact
is the imports of peanuts to the Unit ed
States for the year 1910 assumed IN.
precedented proportions.
Consul General Gaulin at Marseilles,
France. where great quantities of pea
nuts are raised, reports to the depart
ment Of commerce and labor that pea
nut exports to the United States for
the year 1910 rose in value from the
comparatively insignificant total of
sS.772 in 1909 to $371.56S Large pur-
chases Of peanut oil by Americans also
were recorded. and the trade was the
briskest in years.

as Secret0ry | have been instructed
to reply by saying that on account
OF the short time the President will
spend in Nashville 1t will be impossi-
BILE for him to address you people at

The annual football game between
Meharry and Fisk Is likely to be IN
terferred with this year, 1t seems.
The game has heretofore been played
on Thanksgiving Day, but for some
cause or other the managers have
not been able to settle the matter for
this years game. 1t is said the man
ayers of both teams desire to pull
the game off on the usual day, and
the members Of the faculties are
favorable toward it, but there re-
mains stumbling block that 1t
seems impossible to move, and that
is no less person than DR.. George w.
Gates, president of Fisk University.
1t is said overtures upon top of over
lures have been made to him, but to
no avail. DR.. Gates is very positive
in his declarations, and II he has de-
cided finally that the game cannot be .
played on Thanksgiving Day the
people might as well look for some
other entertainment for their holiday
outing. t..s
The Meharry-Fisk game has become
a national event People travel as
far as from Texas and New York to
witness the contest. Last year near
ly every Southern state was repre-
sented here an Thanksgiving Day.
Among the visitors were many form
er graduates Of all the universities
located in this city, and also hun
dreds of former Nashville citizens
who are now living in other parts OF
the country take advantage Of the
holiday rates to visit the old home
end mingle with relatives and
friends. They come from far and
near, and many Of them, in fact the
majority of them, are lovers Of the
gridiron sport and are always glad to
witness such contest as that always
furnished by such popular institu-
tions as Fisk and Meharry.
Locally, the people will learn with
regret that they will be deprived OF
this great time. 1t is like taking
away a child's Christmas toys or
! Christmas day Everybody evpects
to witness this game, and while
large crowd would be on hand any
day, but still there are many who
cannot leave their work only on some
holiday. Those out Of the city will
be put to a double disadvantage II
DR.. Gates holds out against the game
being played They will not get the
cut rate railroad fare, and those who
cannot come only on holidays will,
of course, be shut out entirely.
This game is all that is left now
since the High School team has dis
banded. These games were growing
raDidlv in popularity, one vying with
the other. For some reason or other
the High School will not have any
team at ALL This is great set back
to athletics in general. Pearl High
had worked her way up to the top
and was acknowledged to be among
the best preparatory schools in the
south; 80 the people at home and
abroad had settled down on the Me-
harry-Fisk as the society event OF
the fall, and now 1t seems that they
will have to go walnut hunting or
content themselves with a quiet day
at home.
Dr. Gates may yet yield to the ap-
peals of the people which will GER
tainly 20 up to him in great num-
bers when it is known that the case
rests with him.
