GOVERNORS MESSAGE
Hooper Thinks Work Can Be
Finished ID Allotted Time

In Governor Hooper's message
to The legislature, he urges that
twenty days is ample time to 90
all the work that is laid out for
the extra session if the members
will get down to business and
eliminate all unnecessary wrangl-
ing, forget partisanship and do
their duty to the state. He con-
siders four or five days only will
be required to dispose of the $50
local bills. And the general bills,
he states, can be expeditiousiy
acted upon because many of them
are unopposed, few Of them have
any political significance and none
require special research.
He states that the measures in
eluded in the call are mainly there
at the request of senator's and rep
resentatiyes and emphasizes the
fact that there should be no
wrangling.
Gov. Hooper speaks particularly
Of the appropriation bills, the anti
pass bin recommending such a law
Of the road legislation and other
measures which be fayors. Con
corning the the back-tax laws and
the law enforcement legislation,
he states it is his purpose to dis
cuss these questions in separate
messages.
Tuesday the Governor addressed
himself to the legislature in
special law enforcement measure.
He stated that the great majority
Of the people Of Tennessee in
Guiding all classes, races and
political parties, are In favor Of
the prohibition laws and their
enforcement and urged that all
who are men should play the part
and do their duty. He referred to
the notification of the liquor laws
in the cities and made a fling at
the mayor of a city with 500
doggeries..,'

Bank Of Trezevant Resumes
Business after Brief Close

The Bank Of Irrelevant which
has been closed about two months
opened up Thursday Of last week
and is moving along nicely. 4
The cashier, w. G. Ware was
drowned in June and after run
ming a few days following his
death the officials Of the bank de-
cided to close for an investigation
of the condition of affairs. An
auditor was employed and the in
vestigation concluded which re-
suited in the reopening Of the
bank. 1t was stated BY one of the
officials that the bank has been
placed in better condition now
than it has been in for FIVE years.
1t had been predicted by some
that just as soon as the bank
opened for business that a run
would be made upon it by the
depositors, but there was not the
slightest tendency in that direction.
The customers Of the bank are
showing confidence in the institu-
ton and the bank is running along
with its old time smoothness.
Town recorder H. @. Smith a
man of fine character and good
business qualification has been
elected cashier. A. A. Argo,
formerly a merchant Of Holly
Leaf, who is an excellent business
man has been chosen assistant
cashier.

just the extent Of his injuries is
not set known. One foot was
badly hurt, the ankle of the other
was sprained and it was feared
that he was hurt internally, but
it is believed that the accident will
not prove fatal.
Mr.. Surber narrowly escaped
instant death. The log, in falling,
partially lodged against the fence
thus preventing it from complete
Iy crushing him.
The young man is a son Of Seat
Surber, splendid farmer living

LAW ENFORCEMENT
About to be EspOused by Ex-GOv,
Patterson say his Friends

The daily papers the first Of the
week came out with the state
ment that Malcolm r. Patterson,
former governor of Tennessee
stands for the law enforcement
measures. Mr.. Patterson was in
Nashville with headquarters at the
Maxwell House, and it is said his
room was crowded with his friends
Much interest was manifested on
The part Of politicians generally as
to just what was taking place in
these conferences between Patter-
son and his friends. and particular
interest was shown by the Memphis
delegation.
Mr.. Patterson when seen by a
reporter refused to talk. He said:
I have nothing to say now,
am here in Nashville on a periodi-
cal trip and am not going to talk
any politics.
The friends Of Patterson, how
ever did not seem so reticent. II
was stated by one, that Mr.. Pat
terson was in Nashville to support
the law enforcement measures OF
Governor Hooper just as they
stand. 1t was, also said that Pat
terson has already lined up all the
regulars in the legislature who are
his friends for law enforcement
and that when the vote is taken
on these measures there will be
an unexpected vote for them.
1t is known so it is claimed that
the former Governor has nothing
to hope from the present Regular
machines in Memphis and Nash
vile, and it is asserted that by
their destruction, If he is willing
to forego running for Office him
self, he would be able to secure
the nomination and election of al
most any good clean democrat
and thus rescue the democracy Of
the state from its present chaotic
condition.
1t is believed that Patterson's
endorsement Of the law enforce
ment measures is more because of
his opposition to Crump and
House, the mayors of Memphis
and Nashville than from any other
cause. He sees in this a chance to
hurt his bitter political enemies
and at the same time spouse a
cause that has strong following
over the state.

COTTON CROP
Heavy Deterioration Result Of
Extreme Dry, tiOt Weather

Deterioration has been heavy to
the cotton crop over the entire
belt during the past two weeks.
Much Of this loss has been due to
the natural decline of the plant
with maturity. This is especially
true ID Georgia and the Carolinas,
where the promise is still good
& for an excellent yield. But in the
remainder of the belt natural de-
terioration has beer augmented BY
heavy loss, due to the hot, dry
werther, and, in infested areas, to
\ the boil weeyil.
In all Of the western section of
the belt and in Tennessee, Miss
issippi and Alabama, the deteriora
ton, due to dry weather, has been
marked, and the promise Of the
yield has been appreciably cut.
A large majority Of correspon-
dents in this territory state that
the prospect has changed from the
best outlook in years 80 days ago
to one Of the worst ofmany, many
years. The plant is shedding
heavily and young bolls are being
forced open prematurely by the
heat and drouth, There is almost.
solid unanimity Of opinion that a.
top crop is practically out of the
question.
In Mississippi, Louisiana and
parts Of Southern Alabama the
second Matching Of the boil weevil
is doing great damage, and farm
ers have given up as hopeless all
efforts to pick them from the
. cotton and burn them The damage
in Texas is inconsequential.
An unusual amount Of cotton is
open for the season of the year,
and in spite Of the hot weather.
picking is going on rapidly, with
the result that September ginning
figures bid fair to break all records
East Of the river there is a dispo-
sition on the part Of farmers to
hold their cotton for even higher
prices. There is hardly a single
! complaint Of lack of sufficient
labor to gather the crop expedious-
ly. West of the river continued
clear open weather is desired to
expedite the gathering of the
crop, as it is generally acknow-
lodged that rains would prove Of
small benefit in promoting further
growth Of fruitage.
In Tennessee, heavy deteriora-
ton resulted from the extreme
dry, hoe weather, of the last fort
night. Plant usually has stopped
growing and fruiting and is
throwing off much of its fruit.
Young bolIs, hardly more than
three-fourths grown, are opening
rapidly. There is little August
or top crop. Picking is becoming
general, though Somewhat retarded
] by hot weather.

GOOD ROADS
More Work on Memphis-tO-Bris-
tOI Highway this Week

Work on the Memphis-to-Bristol
highway was resumed this week,
two busy workings of two days
each taking place on the road
between Huntingdon and the
Benton county line.
The work on this end Of the line
was done Monday and Tuesday by
the Huntingdon Commercial Club
and the citizens living upon this
part of the road. Judge Wilson
Enochs, Lewis f. johnson and
others served as managers. The
workmen were divided into two
crews, one beginning at Conyers
Barn and working to Mebane's
Hill, a distance Of two and 4 half
miles, the other beginning at
Mebane's Hill and working beyond
Rosser distance Of about three
miles.
Some fine work was done in the
way of cutting down hills, widen
ing the road, grading, ha6ling etc,
It is said particularly good work
was done on Conyers Hill and in
some other localities. There were
not so many workmen or teams as
on the Old Jackson road, but they
were prepared for the work and
managed to good advantage, no
time being lost, and results were
secured.
Wednesday and Thursday the
people Of Hollow Rock and
vicinity have been engaging in
working in elaborate style on their
end of the line. With force con-
sisting of about one hundred men
and fifty teams they have been
doing duty enthusiastically with
road plows, graders, shovels and
dynamite and are making a fine
showing upon the highway. Geo.
W, Foster, county road COM
missioner, assisted by Priest Kyle
H. G. McMackins and Others is
experimenting the work.
The crew began "Wednesday
near the Benton county line and
continued this way. By quitting
time tonight it is hoped to COM
plete the line to the point reached
Tuesday by the Huntington
crew.
A big barbecue and picnic dinner
was served Wednesday for the
workmen near the old Hollow
Rock church, a large number of
the wives being present with we'll
filled baskets to supplement the
barbecue aud assisting in the
serving,
A similar dinner was served
Thursday at a convenient location
west Of Hollow Rock.
Following we give a letter're-
ceived from A. Nunnelly after the
above article was written:
Wednesday Sept. 10
Everything on the B to NJ high
way is working exactly to the
program, outlined by the COM
mites having the various matters
in charge and the dirt is simply

seriously considered that we send

the Panama Canal, that they send

done.

EXTRA SESSION
Legislature convenes and Large
Number Of Bills introduced

AT the call of Governor Hooper
the Tennessee legislature convened
Monday afternoon. 1t was a
record breaking day in the history
of the legislature in point of num-
Der Of bills being introduced, there
being in all 14S bills introduced
during the afternoon. These bills
include practically every subject
included in the governors call.
All Of the law enforcement
measures were gotten through on
first reading, though not without
some opposition. In the senate
when the bill providing for the
interchange of judges for non per-
Torrance Of duties was introduced,
Senator McAlister made an at
tempt to kill the bill. Upon the
insistence of his colleagues, how
ever he withdrew his motion of
rejection, seeing that it would be
a failure.
Bills passed on first reading in
addition to the law enforcement
measure included two amend
ments to the assessment law,
several anti-railroad and anti cor
poration bills and a good deal of
labor legislation, game, fish and
forestry bills, and two pure food
and drug laws.
A long and bitter scrap ensued
in the senate when soon after CON
venihg Senator Fisher, a regular
of Shelby moved that a committee
be appointed to formulate rules
for governing of the senate.
Objection was made to the motion
By the independents and republi-
cans who held that the rules for
the regular session should also
serve for the special session. The
war of words was concluded by
motion Of a regular to postpone
further consideration Of the matter
until Tuesday Immediately after
the senate convened.
In the house d resolution calling
for the appointment of a COM
mittee to draft rules for the
special session was adopted and
speaker Stanton appointed five
regulars and two fusionists on the
committee.
Tuesday in both the senate and
lower house a bitter fight grew
out of the question of rules Of
order, the fusionists fayoring the
rules Of the regular session and
the regulrrs contending for
amendments The regulars came
out5ictolious in both houses, the
vote being 80 to AZ in the Lower
House and Is to IA in the Senate.
These test votes seem to indi-
cate rough sailing for the law
enforcement measures. Especially
when coupled with the fact that
speaker Stanton assigned them
to a committee on the liquor
traffic composed Of a membership
made up largely of city repre-
sentatiyes with Chamblee, Of
Chattanooga, chairman.

The Home Town.

People seldom stop to consider how
much their home town means to them.
They take it too much for grant
ed, and in counting up their bless
ings make a superficial inventory that
fails to credit the source from which
many of their dearest benefits flow.
1t IS easy to over look the home town
n summing up the sources of ones
happiness because the town is such
alarge. allenveloping thing - SO large.
in fact, that its hard to see and the
citizen blndly draws sustenance from
it like an infant from its mother.
Traced to their source most of life S
blessings will be found to have their
root in that aggregation of human
beings known as a town. The town
is the unit of modern civilization an d
is the channel through which civiIza-
ton coniers its benefits. There is
scarcely phase of civilization that
does not find direct and specific
expression in the life and org anlza-
ton OF town that is large enough to
have a school. library, bank, a mill
or factory, a church. electric lights,
a brass band, a newspaper and a
! railroad station. Representing edu-
cation finance. industry. religion,
hygiene, AT and the speedy di>trlbu-
ton of intelligence and commodities
these institutions express all that is
highest and best in human achieve
ment. II civilization is good. then
the home town is good. and the c'li-
zens shoul be proud and thankful OF
it. Instead of casting wondering
and envious glances at distant city,
let us glow with pride for our own
little city, realizing that the difference
is only one of degree and not O
kind st. James Journal.
