Memphis a Gulf railroad was brought
in the United States district court at
Memphis Monday. The C.. NJ. a G. Is
the new railroad from Dyersburg TO
Hickman. In whose extension to Gin
ton We have very great interest
That interest is no whit abated
since the Illinois Central has set out
TO absorb the new road. but Is rath-
er increased, for the reason that the
Illinois Central would. We think, be
more likely than the holding com
pany. to build the extension. The IL
linois Central has already made a
preliminary survey OF a route from
Hickman to Clinton. and We can but
believe that II the courts should com
pei the sale OF the c.. NJ. a. G. TO
the Illinois Central. which claims to
hold the optional right to make the
purchase, then the line from Hickman
to Clinton will be built. In its petit
ton In the suit just brought. the H.
linois Central alleges that its con-
tract with the C.. NJ. & G.. gave Il
the right to purchase the new road at
any time that the defendant road
should make a connection with any
system other than the ]. C. The |.
G. claims to have, in a large meas
ure, financed the building OF the C.,
NJ. & c.. and in order TO secure this
backing the l. c. claims that IL was
given the option II uow seeks TO en-
force. Suits of this kind are not
always brought with a view TO spec
dy adjudication OF rights at issue;
the object sometimes being TO en-
barass and "tie up" small-fry enter
prises which fill a link or threaten a
competition which the more powerful
adversary has made a note OF and
thinks 1t worth while to stick down
a peg precautionary. We only hope
IL may turn out that the j. G. Is
really anxious TO acquire this proper
ty and that the matter will be push
ed through the courts in order that
we may the sooner get our new rail-
road. Clinton Gazette.
II all reports concerning Cairo be
true, the water did considerable dam
age there. A Hickman man was In

Conditions are favorable for a
very small rise in the river In June.
While there is a larger quantity OF
snow than usual to melt out, the
wind has packed and swept the snow
into canyons and ,gulches. in such a
manner that scientific men look for
II TO melt very slowly and will not
cause a sudden rise as is generally
the case where snow is evenly and
loosely spread over the mountains.
Here's hoping they have II figured out
correctly.

THE GOVERNORS SPEECH.

A crowded court room greeted Gov
ernor Stubs when he made his
speech here Thursday evening, and
the crowd was greeted to the spec
tacle OF the chiet executive Of the
state assailing the chief executive Of
the nation, of the same political Faith
in terms stronger than has ever been
applied to him in this section by a
Democrat. The Governor evidently
burned his bridge behind him, be-
cause, should Taft be the nominee
Cor President, and the Governor the
nominee for United States Senator
it will have to be a go-as-yOltpiease
fight, or the Governor will have to
take back a great many things he
has said. He cannot consistently do
so. Aside from his REMARKS about
the Taft administration, his speech
was a fairly good one. and he had
the close attention Of all hie listen
ems, among whom were many Demo
Gratis.

Quite a commotion was caused at
the Tribune office Monday morning
when 1t was discovered that viii. the
editor, had not put in an appearance.
After he was chased down he was
found at home, assisting Mrs Towns

In the morning. He was so much
taken up with his new task that he
did not register in at the office un-
til the next day, but as he then hand
ed out ten-eent cigars, an was for
gotten. Mother and child are doing
wei, and VIII is a little bit more In
clined to be for Roosevelt than he
was before.

A little bad whisky and a little
poor judgment was responsible for
two men being killed and three others
being shot, one very badly, at Hois-
ington late last Thursday afternoon.
One colored man named Mckee,
who formerly was employed by the
Missouri Pacific, after imbibing rath-
er fneely Of bootleg, went TO the
shops to see about getting back on.
The foreman seemed to have gone
home, and Mckee was requested in
a sort Of way by the watchman,
Longin, to refine from the premises.
He did not seem to do this as fast
as Longin thought he should, and a
scuffle ensued during which the cob
ored man secured Longin's gun and
In the melee Lmgin was shot, and
for a time it was thought he could
not live. Another employee, Lay
man, was shot and died a day or two
later. Also a colored porter and a
Greek labouer we're slightly wounded.
A crowd quickly gathered and chased
Mckee, landing him under a lumber
pile, from which they finally secured
him, but he had been so badly shot
up that he died the same evening.
The affair was a bad one and Great
ed a great deal Of excitement for a
while.

Now that Easter has should Celebration
THE REPUBLICAN ROW.

The row in the Republican party
seems to be contagious, and spread
ing all over the country, even invad-
ing peaceful Barton. 1t seems that
under the self constituted primary
that is to be held in this county to
eject delegates to the state and dis
trict convention, Wednesday evening
of this week, was the closing time
Tor filing petitions for candidates.
Early in the evening Chairman Hon.
nen had in his possession the peti-
tions of eight Roosevelt candidates,
but no other. About ben that even
ing petitions were presented to him
for eight Taft delegates, and sixteen
more for Roosevelt, all at the same
time. Mr.. Honnen accepted the Taft
list, but refuses to accept the other
sixteen for Roosevelt, and refuses to
certify them to go on the BALLOT. Of
course he is a law unto himself in
this respect, there being no law to
govern. If he had a right to accept
any, he had a right to accept all or
none. He refuses the extra Roosevelt
names ON the ground that they were
not filed in good faith. We were un-
able to secure the names of the ex-
ira ones and interview them as to tn
matter, but at best there is a little
fun in store for the boys anyway.
The election is to be held on the
22rd. The lists as filed with the
chairman that he has accepted are as
follows:
For Roosevelt delegates to the
state convention:
Porter Young, ]. @. Ragan, John
o. Tucker, Peter Bloom, G. ]. Spen-
Ger, Ohas. Button, Louis Hagen, Ed
Kellam.
The delegates names filed for the
congressional convention and for
Roosevelt are: w. F. Honnen, T. c..
Brown, Tobias Unruh, Geo. Land, S.
NJ. Beckett, o. W. Dawson, H. l.
Ward, H. E. Turck, John Shaffer.
The Taft delegates for the state
convention as filed last evening with
Chairman Honnen are as follows: ],
H. Ramey, N. P. Nelson, R. L HAM
ilton, c. L. Moses, E. L. Smith, T NJ
