A FRIENDLY WORD.

at makes a Kansas man feel
proud Of the Santa Fe, distinctive
ly Kansas road, in making a trip
back east, remarked G. H. Sweet
ser, a businessman of Hutchinson
who has returned from a business
trip to New York and Boston. Il
travelled on about dozen different
roads while in the east, among them
them the crack roads, such as the
Pennsylvania, New York Central and
Boston G Maine. None OF them
come up to the Santa Fe in any re-
spect. The equipment of our road
here Is far superior to that of the
eastern lines, and l was surprised
to find that the Santa Fe's roadbed
had the big eastern roads beat. l
feel like giving the Santa Fe a
chrome for the fine service and
courteous treatment by employees
generally. You don't find any such
courtesy on the eastern roads. -

That Convention
Communicated.

The proceedings of the Mock Con.
vention. Sept, End, 1911 lin Dog
Days. which is awlays disasterous tc
Boss Rule.
When the Bosss met at Tazewell.
To hold the Mock Convention;
How to get rid of Greever,
Was the bore of their contention.
Gillspie was the first to speak.
And represent the masses;
1t was then the mob began to howl.
Like forty thousand Asses
Some said Gillspie had been fed,
But Gillespie he said nay;
The mob then rushd upon him,
All eager for the fray.
James Lester had seen enough of war,
And did not like attraction;
He hit the door like thousand brick
AS brave as Andrew jackson.
General Spratt who led the charge,
Was as brave as any woman;
Retrated through the door so fast
He upset his abdomen.
He turned his conscience upside down,
BY opposing DIR. Greeyer;
lie made his Family DR.. think,
He had Political Fever.
We think that these brave soldiers,
Whose names we will not mention;
Should go before the Pension Board,
And try to get a pension.
Our people went square deal,
And will in spite of fate;
Rout the crew of tyrants,
Who would sink the Ship of State.
Come all ye sons of toll,
And work just like Beaver;
And save the grand old Ship of State,
BY voting for neighbor Greever.
BY voter from Clear Fork.

Tennessee Farm
Bargains.

The farm briefly described below is
owned by a Knoxville man who finds
that he cannot possibly give it any
attention on account of his extensive
business interests. Then, too, he
needs the money tied up in the farm.
He is, therefore, offering it at an
exceptionally low figure.
Description. Contains 1860 acres.
About 400 acres of fine timber esti-
mated to be worth over $4,000 on
stump. Balance in grass and under
cultivation. Land all in good state of
cultivation and lays we'll, there being
about 200 acres of level land and bal
ance rolling. This years crops consist
of about 125 acres of corn, 145 acres
of peas and beans, 160 acres of wheat
and oats already cut. Stock OH place
now consists of about 80 dairy cows,
nearly 100 young cattle, 20 head of
mules and horses and lot hogs. The
improvements consist of two fine
dwellings, number of tenent houses,
five or six barns, including two good
dairy barns. Buildings and machinery
insured for $40, 900. School, church
and store within less than a mile.
Situated within 6 miles of posper-
Gus manufacturing city of about 5000
population, and on the main line of
the Southern Railway between Bristol
and Chattanooga. The great Memphis
to Bristol highway will run within
one mile of this farm. This route was
definitely decided upon within the
past few days and adds at least
$40, 600 to the value of the farm.
,, However, we listed the place before
the route was decided upon and there
can be no advance of price until our
contract expires. We have this farm
listed at the remarkably low price
of $50 per acre. 1t is worth $50 per
acre easily. If $4,000 is paid in cash
time on the balance can be arranged
to suit purchaser. Farm can be divid-
ed into either two, three or four farms
to advantage. Plenty of springs and
branches watering places. Also fronts
for nearly one mile on Clinch River,
If you are interested in above farm
do not delay in advising US. 1t will
not be on the market very long. We
have other farms in about thirty East
Tennessee counties, and can suit any
purchaser regardless of the amount
to be spent.
