WARM FIGHT IN
SECOND DISTRICT
J. PARKS WORLEY ISSUES cHAl.
LENGE TO A. J. TYLER TO MEET
HIM IN JOINT DEBATE.

BRISTOL Tenn, Oct. Hon. J.
Parks Morley, the regular" demo.
cratic nominee TO rthe state senate
from the Second senatorial district,
hich includes Sullivan and Haw.
kins counties, has issued a challenge
to Judge A. ]. Tyler, his fusion op-
ponent, for joint debate at Blount-
vile Monday, October Z. Mr.. Wor-
ley says that he will speak there at
that time and invites Judge Tyler to
be with him there, as we'll as n. his
speaking appointments in Hawkins
county.
Friends of Judge Tyler among the
Republicans and Independent demo
Gratis are preparing to make a siren
uous fight. Governor Hooper car
rled Hawkins county by $40 major
ity, over the late Senator Taylor and
friends of Judge Tyler say that he
will receive 1000 majority in that
county. The majority of Worley in
Sullivan county two years ago, as a
candidate for direct representative,
was only about 400.
Ex-Governor John l. Cox will have
no opposition for direct representa-.
tive from Sullivan county. The re-
publicans and Independent demo-
Gratis decided not to make fight for
this office and the former governor,
who was nominated by the demo-
Gratis for the legislature last spring,
will devote the remainder of the
time before the gubernatorial cleo
ton, to speaking for McMillin. He
is strenuously opposed to Patterson
for the United States senate and
was strongly in favor of the calling
off of the primary.

WHISKY PLANK IN THE

FRANKLIN, Tenn, Oct. In the
most denunciatory speech that he
has yet made in the present CAM
paign, Ex-Governor Benton McMil-
lin, candidate for governor, address
ed some 200 voters Of Franklin and
Williamson county at the court
house here today. He especially d.
rected his batteries against Cover
nor Hooper, and in addition to plac-
ing the latter squarely in the An
anias club upon several occasions he
referred to the governor asa man
treacherous without art, and Typo
critic without deceiving," "a violator
of all law and decency," "a man
seeking to be elected governor
through corruption" "a pompous
actor in that most Infamous prison
moving picture show" and "a lineal
descendent of Ananias and Saohar-
las, with apologies to the biggest
previous liar in history of the
world"
During the course of his speech
Gov. McMillin made no direct re-
ference to the recent statement of
Judge Joseph Jones anent the IL
quor plank, hut he said in emphatic
tones that he stood squarely on the
platform on this point. The speak
er said that he realized that any
body who spoke on the liquor ques-
ton was skating on thin ice" but
that he was going to state his views
without hesitation or reservation.
"On this question he said, Il propose
to stand squarely on this plank in
the platform and l will go on to vic,
tory or down in defeat with my

RENDERS JUDGMENT
. FOR NINE THOUSAND
BACK ASSESSMENT
TRUSTEE TAXES SHARES OF
TENNESSEE FERTILIZER CO.
FOR FOUR YEARS.
OWNED BY ". ]. HOWARD, DECD
Assesses l,125 Shares for 1907, 1908.
1909, 1910 at $112,500 for Each Year
Aggregate Taxes Being About
$9,00O-Other Gases Continued.

In the back assessment case of
}. ii. Carpenter, executor of w. J..
Howard, deceased, Trustee McFall
TINS morning rendered Judgment
against the executor, back assessing
property for the years 1907, 1908 1909
and 1910. The back taxes assessed,
with the penalties, interest, costs
and revenue agents fee of fifteen
per cent, will aggregate for the years
mentioned approximately $4,000.
The back assessment was made BY
Trustee McFall on LIPS shares of
the Tennessee Fertilizer Company
owned by the deceased w. ]. How
ard, and in the hands of his executor.
This stock was valued for the Dur.
pose OF assessment at it's face value
OF 500 per share making the assess
ment $112,500 for each year made.
The cases against ]. H. Carpenter
and J. w. Howard individually for
back assessment upon shares Of
stock in the same company for the
same years. were continued by Trus-
tee McFall until Oct. IS. The cases
against Messrs. Howard and Carpen.
ter involve three-fourths of the stock
of the Tennessee Fertilizer Compa-
ny or 1875 shares. Should the trus-
tee render the same judgment against
them that was held upon the stock
by Carpenter, executor, the assess
ment would be upon $337,5OO, and the
total taxes for the four years would
be altogether about $1,000
The assessment made this morning
was upon LIPS shares for. the years
mentioned, the taxes assessed for
1907 being $1,113.75; for 1908 and.
1909 the same and for 1910 s1.170.
The variation in the tax rate wss r.
sponsible for the difference in the
assessment Of 1910.
In addition to this case and tina
cases against Howard and Carpenter
to be herd on Oct IL, there is else
pending action before the Trustee
to back assess the Tennessee Fertil-
izer Company for the same years.
The judgment not only covers tho
amount stated above for taxes for
the years mentioned but also includes
all costs, penalties and interest.
Should the same Judgment be pro-
nounced against the shares Of stock
held by Howard and Carpenter that
was pronounced this morning the az
gregate taxes collected would, an
stated be about $4,000 and the rev.
enue agents fifteen per cent fee
would be about $4,000.
The attorneys for the executor did
not state today whether or not they
would appeal to the state board Of
equalization.

COTTON CROP IS
ENCOURAGING
WEATHER CONDITIONS MOST
DESIRABLE FOR PERFECT
GROWTH OF THE PLANT.

MEMPHIS, Sept. 3O.-This great
American crop, on which the pros
perity of the nation depends so init
mately, is such at this time 20 en-
courage sanguine hopes. The seed
ing was late owing to weather condi
tions, and in places somewhat less
thoroughly done. The area planted
was somewhat less than usual. But
the weather conditions most desir.
able for the perfect growth of the
plant have been most auspicious
TIL result is buoyant for the antici.
patton of the south. A big cotton
crop does not means quite as much
for that section of the people as it
did in the slavery epoch, perhaps.
There are today vast variety OF
other interests and resources. But
| it bears, and always will, an i'm.
mense place in the affections and
prosperity of that great region.
The insect pests have been but
little in evidence. The boil weevll ia
scarcely recognized and though there
has been some talk about the army
worm the fact that it does not ap-
pear to be dreaded shows that it is
looked on as negligible factor. A
conservative estimate at this stage
of the agricultural game places the
cotton harvest at about $4,000, 900
bales.
The demand for American cotton
depends not merely on it's volume for
foreign use as well as domestic con-
sumption, says the New York Com
mercial, but on its reliable quality in
which it surpasses the cotton Of
Africa and Asia so far as the raising
of the plant has been developed on
a considerable scale up to the pre-
sent time. Great as the efforts
made by foreign zeal In the depend
encies of Great Britain, France and
Germany have been, it has not speci-
flcally diminished the dependence
on teh American crop. Nor - It
likely that there will be for a great
many years to come, with the most
energetic push In rival cotton re-
gions, anything to destroy that de-
pendenee.
Cotton will not be a bumper crop
with US this year, to be sure. But
it Is more than an average and there
is an assured prospect of good
prices, according to the present out
look. With a fine wheat and corn
crop in the west and an excellent
cotton yield in the south the assur-
ance Of good times is pretty reliable,
and the situation is likely to stand
good deal of political misfortune by
bad legislation should that be the
edict OF fate. The question of
which party will secure the rresi-
dency and control congress is of
much less Importance than that of
the munificence Of nature in Yield
ing large rewards to agricultural in
dustry, which bottoms everything
else in our prosperity.
