torney- General ID. ]. Caldwell Of The
Fourteenth Judicial District, has drafted
bill which he thinks should be passed
by the present Legislature and which
seems to cover the grounds which il is
intended to cover very completely
Briefly stated the salient points Of the
bill proposed by General Caldwell are:
First, the Governor be empowered to
purchase for the State Of Tennessee,
from the West Tennessee Land Com
pany what is known as Reelfoot Lake
together with the lands covered thereby,
etc. +" provided same can be purchased
at the price OF dollarsn THE
amount to be paid is to be decided be-
tween the State authorities and the
land company, but the bill does not
contemplate the latter's being allowed
to put an exhorbitant price upon the
property.
Sections 3 and Of the bill convey a
fair explanation Of the way in which it
is intended for the State to hold the
lake.
Sec 5. Be it further enacted,
that said Reelfoot Lake, when SO
purchased, shall be and remain
open, free and equal as herein pro-
yided for fishing and hunting in
and thereon to any and all the cit
liens and residents of Tennessee.
Sec. 6. Be it further enacted
that no fowl killed on or from Reel
foot Lake and no fish out OF or
from Reefoot Lake shall be ship

sold to any person, firm on corpora
ton not resident OF Tennessee,
except to non-residents while in
Tennessee for immediate personal
consumption.
Further restrictions and penalties for.

bill follow and il concludes with q pro-
viso that the "act" 40 into effect at
once; the public welfare requiring ii. I"
General Caldwell favors paying
compromise price for tbe property,
but would be very we'll pleased if the
courts held the claims Of the West
Tennessee Land Company null 9
II is well that Attorney-GeneraI Cald-
well, who is perhaps better posted than
any other man in Tennessee upon the
subject both Of Reelfoot Lake itself and
Of the Nightrider troubles in It's vicinity,
has published his communication upon
the subject and his proposition for the
State to become the owner Of the lake
which never should have, and, IN the
opinion Of many, never has passed out
of their possession. Jackson Sun.

General CaIdwell's Lake Bill.

There are many important subjects
to come before the Fifty-seventh Gen
eral Assembly when it reconyenes after
the recess, not the least among which
is the disposal Of the Reelfoot Lake
question.
The acquiring by the West Tennessee
Land Company Of this lake and the
land lying adjacent to it was the pri-
mary cause Of the 'Nightridern
troubles which have disturbed the vicin-
ity Of Reelfoot ever since the formerly
free waters Of the lake passed into the
possession Of this company, and which
eliminated little more than two years
ago in the murder Of Captain Quentin
Rankin.
This foul deed is Of such recent date.

events to which il led needs no recapitu-

prietorship Of large open lake by al
nonresident syndicate, produced the
criminals who committed il
