They had no recourse but to max,
the best of bad situation and the,
have as consequence uncondition
ally surrendered to the enemy.
| Good government is the victor
again. John |. Cox and Worley ant
Mcfarland and the other leaders have
been whipped to a FRAGILE. Gov
Hooper will now proceed in consti
tutional way to call an extra session
for the enactment of the necessary
supply bills. He can include in his
call such other legislation as he
deems of vital interest to the welfare
of the state. He is not restrained in
any way. We hope, for the good of
the state, however, that the governor
VIII under no circumstances include
the assessment law in his call. That
would mean the perpetuation of the
old back tax system under another
name. 1t would be administered by
men dictated by WorIey, Cox and
Stanton.
The fusion members are deserving
not only the hearty congratulation
but the every lasting thanks Of the
good people of Tennessee for the
resolute stand that they have taken.
They have refused to compromise
with lawless gang of political free
hooters to whom their oath of al
legiance to the constitution is
thing to be spat upon and dispised
whenever it stands between them
and their lawless interests.
1t Is to be hoped that Gov. Hooper
will not long delay the calling of the
extra session. He should provide in
ais call for all necessary local legis
alton He should also stress the
Importance of appropriation bills.

DEFYiNG THE LAW.

In his opening speech for mayo
Judge Meeks of Nashville, gives a
the reason for his failure to adyc
cate the enforcement of the anti
liquor laws of the state, the fact tina
the people of Nashville have iii
several elections proven that the,
do not approve of these laws"
This is remarkable attitude for :
judge upon the bench, under oath
execute the laws of his state. II is
contrary to every conception of the
right and orderly administration ri
government If the mayor or the
judge can for himself determine what
laws should and what laws should
not be executed, why have laws at
all? Why not substitute for the or.
deriy processes of the law the will
of one man?
Judge Meeks reason for non.en-
forcement of the liquor laws, is no
reason at all. He declares that he
Will abolish the other evils in Nash
Fllle, that he will enforce the laws
against the gambling houses. the
dives OF iniquity where fallen women
ply their traffic; that he will keen the
public places of the city free from
an evil that fiaunts itself in the face
Of all decency.
Now judge, what warrant have
you for saying that the people Of

farmer save money by eating eggs and chickens? Too many farmers overlook this contrast and take the poultry and eggs to market and sell it for less than if is worth to them if consumed at home, and at the same time deny themselves these luxuries.
 Sow a patch of rye or clover near the house for the poultry. spend few dollars for wire net ting to protect the young chick. ems from rats, snakes and yer min, and buy poultry remedies, and help the good housewife to the means of caring for the chick. ems, geese, turkeys and ducks. If the market does not afford a good price, consume the product at home, and you will live better and save money, Remember the old adage, Money saved is mon ey made.' Poultry is a real as set to the farmer. Treat it as such, and if you will keep an ac- count of it, you will be gratifed and surprised at the result.

Poultry For Profit.

Compare his with the cotton crop and you |ill get some idea of it's magni- bde The farmers themselves, hose wives and sons and daugh- brs raise the poultry, do not re benize the full value of poultry \ a farm asset. It will pay the lrmers to build houses, make bops and provide the proper buipement necessary to give the est opportunity to that branch l the domestic circle having the bultry interests in charge.

New York, May 21.-(specia, )-More
than year has passed since there came
semi-authoritative admission that tEs
New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad company was contemplating a
unification of the valsous railway com
panies owned or leased by 1t. Last fall
the statement was Incidentally made by
one of the partners of the house of J. p.
Morgan that the work made necessary
by the formulating OF plans by which
this great proposition of the New York
Central people for the unifcation into
one corporation of yearly all of the sys-
TENS 1t controlled was a monumental la
bor In some respect unsurpassed.
The presumption involved not only vely
difficult and delicate calculations, out
also the unraveling Or simplifying of the
various stock and mortgage obligations
which represented the capitalization OF
the various systems.
Within a few days announcement has
been officially made that the first start
toward the consumms ton of this plan
has already been made by the unification
of the New York state systems and That
the second step is soon to be taken by the
complete absorption Ct the Lake Shore
railroad system.
This proposition is not to be compared
with any that has been of Importance in
the railway world since the reorganiza-
tion of the Southern railway system OF
the perfecting of the Union Pacific plans
of E. H. Hartman or the campaign
which brought the Burlington railway
system into the control of the Grcat
Northern.
The proposition is spoken of here as one
that contains three highly significant and
important suggestions. One relates to the
financing of magnitude which is neces-
sary to perfect the plans and another re-
lates to the economic Importance, botf
to the railroad company and to the pub
lie, which underlies he proposition. And
last but by no means least, is the dem
onstration that. the managers of this
great railroad property believe that un-
favorable influences have passed away
