HIGH SCHOOL TEAM GET WORST
OF THE SCORING BUT Is
BENEFITED.

The High School eleven that went
to Petersburg Saturday got the worst
of the scoring, but came back with
the story that they had one of the
finest teams to play against they had
ever faced, and that the boys were
heavy, accurate in their work and
knew the game to finish. While
the Athenaeum boys were defeated
they expect to make much better
showing on the return game, and feel
that the benefit derived from a con-
test with team like the Petersburg
bunch was worth all it cost even
though they were defeated.

At present there are more than

short time before Christmas this
stock will begin to move out and
perhaps by the first of February all
the apples will be removed. There
have been other deposits of fruits
during the summer, lemons being
among the leading products put in for
protection. But lemon is not o. in
definite life like an apple, and must
be handled within certain limits Of
time regardless of the temperature
in which it Is kept And If not ham
died within that time decay will set
up any way.
The temperature at the storage
runs from 80 to "a, and the difficult
ey of keeping it even occurs while
the rooms are being filed early in the
season when it is warm. The doors
must be kept open a good portion Of
the time to get in with the fruit, and
then the fruit being warm, the tenn
perature is run up, and care has to
be taken to reduce it.
The wholesale merchants here this
summer stored their lemons and lave
but recently taken them out.

The address of Rev. E. B. Andrews
regarding the manhood, honor and in

ROAD COMMISSIONER ASK FOR
WARRANT FOR CHARGE THAT
THEY ARE GRAFTERS.
IF NOT Then an APOLOGY
Messrs. Hughes, Hill and Hight Make
Reasonable Request of Patterson
Candidate in Dignified Reply to His
Assaults on Them.

Patterson-C Candidate Hammond will
either have to retract the charge that
the road commission of Maury coun-
ty are lot of grafters," furnish the
proof of mis- charges, or stand con-
victed of having made false charges
against his fellow citizens.
T. G. Hughes, Clay Hight and Hen
ry Hill, the members of the Maury
county road commission, Indignantly
deny the charge that they have appro-
priated a single dollar of the coun-
TVS road funds and they insist that
Mr.. Hammond tell when, where and
how they grated" from the coun-
tvs highway funds.
Messrs. Hughes, Hight and Hill
joined in the following statement:
We are surprised at the reckless
charge that Mr.. Hammond has made
against us. We are in no sense is-
sues in this campaign, But we are not
going to remain silent and hear our
motives impugned, our integrity as
sailed and our honor attacked. We
deny that we are a lot Of grafters
or that we have allowed others to
graft from the county. And we must
insist that Mr. Hammond furnish the
proof upon which he bases his
charges or retract the same as pub
licly as he made them. Now If Mr..
Hammond does not furnish the pub
lie with the proof to sustain his at
tack upon our honor and integrity, or
make public retraction of his charg-
es then he must stand convicted of
having made false and unfounded ac-
cusations against his fellow citizens.
Mr.. Hammond, nor any other man, no
matter II he is anxious for a seat In
the legislature, has the right 70 as
sail the honor and integrity of 9TH
ers unless he produces the proof to
support his charges. We hope that
Mr.. Hammond will do what he should
do in the matter and withdraw his
charges, for every man whose good
opinion we prize and who knows us
knows that we are not lot of graft
ers'"
The charges made by Hamncnd
against the road commissioners we're
made in his speech at Mt. Pleasant.
1t was in that portion of his speech
which he had carefully prepared,
having handed a written copy Of it to
the Mt. Pleasant Record in advance
Of its delivery. The following is the
portion of the speech referred to:

spend on our roads Outside the cit.
les we have the richest county II the
state. We all love to talk about the
dimple of the universe. About our
fair women and fast horses. Ye. 1t
seems that we are content with the
worst asset of our county, bad roads.
Under the present road system we
are spending money enough to have
better roads but there are a lot of
grafters in this county who are get
ting the biggest portion Of the peo-
ple's money. These men are opros-
ing me. No wonder they are indie
pendents. Most any of us in their
places would become Independents
at least financially. We want a law
that will make these men responsible

handle"
