A Progressive or Bull Moose County

NJ. Adams was elected chairman, and
J. c. Burdick, Jr., secretary of the
meeting Mr.. Tom Taylor, State treas
urer, was present and called the meet
ing to order. Resolutions making ev-

with the Progressive party and in
favor of the principles advocated by
Theodore Roosevelt, regardless of past
affiliation, a delegate to the State con-
vention, August ?, were adopted.
Republicans and Democrats were in
the meeting. Strong and bitter resolu-
tions denouncing the Chicago conven-
ton and Taft's nomination were
adopted
County organization was perfected.
H. Forcum, of Obion, was made chair
man and J. c. Burdick, Jr., secretary.
Delegates to the State convention were
instructed to vote for Roosevelt's inter
est from first to last, regardless of the
interest or wishes of Gov. Hooper and
his managers.

Benton McMillin.

Aroused to action under the Hon. [
r. Preston's criticism of his stand re
garding the State refunding debt ane
other matters, ex-Gov. Benton McMil
lin spoke Tuesday night at $50 at the
opera house to a rousing crowd o.
voters.
The speaker was introduced in an APP.
propriate address by J. L. Fry. Upon
the stage were. seated many of the
staunch supporters of Mr.. Millin, anx-
ious to hear his response to Preston s
accusations.
After the preliminary. remarks, the
speaker replied directly to the charges
made against him, stating that his &C
ton in defeating the funding act OF
1899 had saved the State a million OF
dollars, and not lost between two and
three millions, as Preston insisted.
The bill, " said Mr. McMillin, was a
violation OF every principle of the plat
form on which the legislature and l
were elected. The platform demanded
the payment of our debt; the bill per-
petuated it, converting 14-year debt
into a 40-year debt. /" As in his previ-
Gus speeches, Gov. McMillin spent a
great part of his time in giving and ex-
planning the provisions of the bill.
In concluding his remarks, he again
referred to Mr.. Craig's action in the
matter as unjustifable. Mr.. McMillin s
were forceful and vigorous
and drew frequent applause from the
crowd.

Enterprising Centreville.

Through the efforts of the Centreville
Commercial Club number of Oregon
cattle men have been located in Hick-
man County and are about to establish
cattle ranches in the hill land near
Cable, which is especially we'll adapted
to grazing.
1t is the purpose of these men to erect
a cheese factory and establish steady
market for milk, thus insuring a ready
income for farmers desiring to engage
in cattle-raising on large scale.
Every commercial club in the State
should emulate the example of the
Centreville club. There is scarcely a
county in Tennessee which does not
have extensive acres of grazing land,
and every acre of this should be pastured
and turned to profit.
The movement of the Middle West
farmers to the Northwest and Canada
can be halted in measure if they are
but advised fully about the superior
chances which await them here. Cheese
factories, creameries and canning fac
tories should be established far and wide
in Tennessee. By paying special at
tention to the branches of farming which
yield ready money every year the farm
can be made more attractive to boys
and girls and thousands of young per-
sons can be held on the land who are
flight to the big centers of
population and industry. Nashville

A Novel Outfit.

Thomas Southworth. whose gallery
here was destroyed by fire some weeks
ago, has perfected a new Photographic
equipment, in other words, a portable
studio. Mr.. Southworth has for some
time been experimenting with artificial
lighting, and since the burning he has
given this branch of the work more at
tentlon, developing recently, in st.
Louis, bellows fiashlight, which is
operated together with an Eastman
complete outfit for home photography
The bellows is made of black and white
cloth, provided with tube which is in
serted from the rear. The tube carries
the powder, and when the sitter is ready
the operator ignites the powder with a
connecting rubber at the same time he
uses the bulb for exposure. When ex-
posture is made, he takes the bellows,
which is attached to small stand, to

which does not confne the powder.
This is used when not more than one
exposure is wanted, and distributes very
little smoke in the room. The entire
outfit is complete and simple, easy to
operate, takes a minimum amount of
time for an exposure, and is capable of
the highest results. The bellows is
