F|GUERs MAKES SALE
OF VALUABLE MILL
PROPERTY At EWELl
CONSIDERATION NOT KNOWN
BUT 1T is APPROXIMATELY
TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS.
GUTHRIE PARTIES PURCHASERS
New Owners Will Take Charge at
Once and Will Have the Plant in
Operation Within the Next Few
Weeks.

T. N. Figuers, Jr., the real estate
man, has just proven that broad acres
are not the only things in which he
can deal with satisfaction to his eli
ents, though he makes quiet admis
sion that he is more at home when
praising Maury county soil.
Monday morning in less time al
most than it takes to write the story
he met Col. J. T. Evans and son, OF
Guthrie, KY, and sold to them the
magnificent Touring mill property
known as the Ewell FIGURING Mill
Mr.. Figuers reached these parties
through his advertising and cores
pondence was started which resulted
in the deal, which is mutually salts
factory to the Messrs Evans, Mr..
Jones and to Mr.. Figuers as well.
The consideration has not been di-
vulged, but it is understood shat it
is well into the thousands, being
around $4,000.
This is and has been one of the best
milling properties in Maury county,
and is equipped with all modern mill
machinery, which is driven by To-
horse power Corliss engine, and has
a capacity of 100 barrels per day.
The new owners are well known
and experienced mill men of Ken
lucky, and will come at once to Ten
nessee and make arrangements 10
begin the operation of their new pur-
chase as early in the new year as
will be practical with the time requir-
ed to make the changes from their
present location and business to Ten
nessee
Mr. Jones, the present operator,
will go West to engage in business.
There Is no more successful real
estate dealer in the middle section of
the state than T. N. Figuers, Jr., and
the fact that he can make deal
with almost any sort of property is
one of his strongest characteristics
and the liberal and systematic man
ner in which Ell advertises what he
has to sell or what he wants to buy,
is always productive of the desired
results.
Mr.. Figuers is in Lewisburg today
on matters connected with his real es-
tate business.

]. H. CREATH FOR
STATE TREASURER
FORMER COUNTY TRUSTEE OF
SHELBY WILL BE CANDIDATE
BEFORE LEGISLATURE.

MEMPHIS, Ten, Dec. 17.-Joseph
H. Creath, of Memphis, former coun-
ty trustee and member of the state
democratic committee from the Tenth
congressional district, will be can
didate for state treasurer before the
Legislature, seeking to succeed G..
Tom Taylor, bull mooser, who was
elected by combination of demo-
Gratis and republicans two years ago.
In the recent democratic primary De
Long Rice, of Nashville, was victor
over A. A. Adams, by vote of two
to one in the race for the treasurship
He relinquished similar nomination
two years ago when Taylor was elect
ed, but it is understood that he is not
in that mood now, unless the demo
cratic caucus edcides to abandon the
other nominations made in the No.
vember primary. That would mean
the nominations of M. r. Patterson
for senator, Frank Dibrell for comp
troller and Hal1um w. Goodloe for
secretary OF state, as well as Mr.. Rice
for treasurer, would have to be re-
garded as of no effect, according to
the opinion here. Just what effect
the candidacy of Mr.. Creath will have
on factional line-ups remains to be
seen. ~

Males Qualified to Vote in
Vermont

Republicans in Vermont do not
try to conceal their fears that they
will poll livery much reduced vote
this year. The old-fashioned ma
jority is not expected, the domi-
nant feeling being that Roosevelt
voters will make it dwindle.
Vermont has about II3, 500
males of voting age, but nearly
half this number are not qualified
to vote.
The total vote for governor two
years ago was 54,787. In the
presidential election of 1908, the
whole vote of the state was 52.654.
The vote for president for half a
century has run very evenly, the
Republican majority ranging from
1886 for Blainerin 1884 to 1886
for Neutrality-suspicious. Globe.
Granting that the contemporary
is right about Republican fears Of
