Der of law suits arising on account of
the disputes growing out of these

suits of Mr.. Reese were brought are
as follows: W. H. Kilbee, four suits;

and ]. H. Skipper.
It will be recalled that the late Mrs.
Sallie Cummins claimed practically
all of this tract of land and that short
ly before her death she was engaged
in several law suits with different
parties on account of the conflicting
claims. There were a number OF peo-
pie who claimed ownership to all or
part of the tract, and there was a con-
slant wrangle over the property which
had apparently died out recently, but
it now appears that some of the
yrangling may be renewed.

Nashville ~Tennessean. .--r ,

Since Mr.. Bryan has declared that
he knows all the leading men Of the
Democratic party, those who have him
dered it and those who have helped
it," and that he is going to devote all
of his time from now until the nomi-
nation for the presidency in finding out
things about candidates, and when the
time comes he will not be silent-since
he has made this declaration an awful
Commotion has taken place among
those who think Mr.. Bryan has no
right as a private citizen and a Demo
crat to have anything to do with the
nomination.
Those who aided in defeating Mr..
Bryan for the presidency in 1896, 1900
and 1908; those who, instead Of sup
porting Bryan in those years, sup
ported the Republican candidate for
president, are now living, breathing
witnesses to the fact that the Ne
braskan has been a hindrance instead
of a help to the Democratic party, for
did not Organism drive them from the
Democratic party into the Republican
fold? Was not Bryan, with his six
and q half million votes in 1896, 1909
and 1908, a menace to the Democratic
party? Though Bryan received in 1908
a million sthree hundred thousand more
votes than Alton B. Parker received
in 1904; though he received a little

FINE CROPS At

SYRUP WILL BE MARKETED.
Special to The Journal.

Grand Ridge. Aug. 24.-The dry
weather is a memory Of the past and
with the exception of oats and the
early corn, did no damage. There was
sufficient moisture to make a fine
melon crop, which was marketed at an
unusually fine price up to the very
last. nearly a hundred car loads being
shipped this season.
Corn will be the largest acreage and
best yield of any former years. Cot
ton, prior to the beginning of the wet
season, was of unusual promise, but
even now much of the stalk is dead
and the bolls prematurely closed 1t
is doubtful if it rates half a crop from
this section. Sugar cane is the best
stand of many years past. and had
held up well with the limited moisture
and now with the great abundance Of
rain is making phenomenal growth
and with ordinary warm weather
through September will make heavy
tonnage and with cool and dry weather
in October will put the saccharine
into it. Grand Ridge expects to ship
three thousand barrels, or more. of
syrup from this station this fall.
The barrel factory is turning out a
fine lot of syrup barrels.

SANDERS AFTER
VIOLATERS OF
DOGORO|NANCE
TWENTY-FIVE ARRESTS WERE
MADE FOR FAILURE TO CON-
PLY WITH LAW GOVERNING
. KEEPING OF CANNES AND
CHIEF OF POLICE SAYS THERE
ARE s7s MORE TO GER YET.

Yesterday was the beginning of z
crusade against the violators of the
dog tax ordinance of the city code, and
as a. starter twenty-five, dog owners
were arrested the first day. However,
Chief Sanders told a representative Of
The Journal last night that there are
just 97S more people who have not yet
complied with the law, all of whom
will be arrested unless they comply
with ordinances before they are
reached by an officer.
The chief of police says that he in
tends enforcing this law rigidly, not
only because he believes in the en-
forcement of all laws, but because he
considers this a very important one
for many reasons. He knows exactly
who the violators of this ordinance are,
and says that he does not intend to let
up until all of them have been COM
PEELED to comply with the law.
The ordinance governing the keeping
Of dogs provides that for each dog
owned or kept by any person within
the city limits a tax of 81 for males
and So for females per year shall be
paid. To this is added Zee of 20
cents for the comptroller, making the
total cost $125 or 1875 as the case
may be- The same ordinance pro-
vides that persons failing to comply
with any portion of the ordinance may
be fined not exceeding $25 or impris-
oned not exceeding thirty days.
Thus II will be seen that, according
to the statement of the chief of police
there were yesterday morning exactly
l. 900 people in Pensacola who are lay
ing themselves liable to fine of s25.

Tigers gathered around whispering:

they rushed over the plate, tying the

the center fielder on the Tiger team
still had pains in his eyes, and that the

with him for the rest of the season.
He needs a long rest. Why didn't they

1t was reported late last night in the
Detroit baseball camp that Ty Cobb
had been stricken with a dangerous
disease. AS a matter Of fact it is
incurable The doctors, among them
the best in the country, are at sea
as to what Cobb is suffering from.
However, the pitchers in the American
League have diagnosed the disease as
'batteritis" or "hitteritis." The first
symptoms of Cobb's trouble We're dis
covered to Philadelphia, where Cobb
had to get out of the game in the
fifth inning after making triple and
a double and batting in a few runs
Cobb experienced a grave relapse
yesterday His bat was suffering from
equity pains every time he picked 1t up.
Last night he was told to remain OPT
doors, and after the seventh inning
on TIE hilltop the doctors in charge
directed that he remain in his room,
as the "hitteritis" and reached such
a stag that it would put him down
and out if he got excited. Cobb stated
last night that this sickness has been
brewing ever since he became a ball
player in the American League.
The fans were buzzing to each other
yesterday commenting on how pale
Cobb looked as he came up to the bat
in the seventh inning. Stanage, the
Tiger catcher, opened up this inning
with a base on balls, and Captain

he was defeated than any other Demo-
Crat who ever ran for the Office. He
polled more votes each time than
Grover Cleveland did in either 1884,
1888, or 1892 In 1896 Bryan polled
million more votes than Cleveland did
in 1892, and yet Bryan is denounced
as a menace to the Democratic party
by those Democrats who aided in
swelling the Republican majorities
against him.
Regardless of what may be thought
of Bryan by those Democrats who
have always opposed and voted against
him, he is a powerful factor in the
Democratic party, which must be reck-
oned with. Three times ne has been
the standard bearer OK the national
Democracy, and each time he has
written his views into the platform.
Now he is a private citizen, but none
the less conspicuous, nor the less pow
erful He is not a candidate for OF
fee, like many of those who fear him,
but is simply a plain citizen and Dem
ocrat who has convictions and cour-
age, having the power to command
the confidence and respect of the
American people, and because, for
sooth, he comes forward as a private
citizen and a Democrat to exercise
the right of an American citizen Ia
opposing or preferring a presidential
candidate, he must be set down as a
dictator, dangerous and threatening,
who stands in the way of Democratic
success.
Bryan is not political dictator, for
he has no office to sustain such a sta
ton. He. has no party chairmanship
and has no political machine at his
command. He has no big business
connections or, Affiliations and has no
secret wires to pull, but merely en-
Joys the confidence the vast majority
of the people repose in him because OF
his honesty and his fidelity.
However much Bryan's policies may
be objected to by those who are now
naRging at him, 1t would be the part
of wisdom to allow him the privilege
that is accorded every other American
citizen-namely, the right to express
his views of measures and public men.
