interesting Address Made by Hon.
z. D. Dunlap and Senator Murray.

At the meeting held at the court
house Thursday night for the pur-
pose of organizing Maury County
Highway Association as unit of the
state highway association, DR.. o. j.
Porter was elected president of the
association, w. P. Ridley, vice presi-
dent, and ]. F. Brownlow, secretary
and treasurer. These gentlemen,
with W. f. Anderson, John Akin,
Theodore Stephenson and Reese
Amis were appointed committee to
secure membership of at least %
In this county by Dec. Is, to select a
board Of trustees from this county,
and to choose a delegate from this
county to the state convention of del
egates in Nashville in January.
The meeting, which was rather
slow in assembling, was addressed by
Hon. z. D. Dunlap, assistant director
general of the National Highways AS
sociation. He stated at length the
purpose of his visit, the plan that the
National Highway Association had for
promoting the cause of good roads in
this country.
In discussing Tennessee more par
ticularly, he said that she and five
other states were the only ones in the
union which did not have some kind
OF a highway commission or highway
department. Mr.. Dunlap thought it
essential, if any organized, systemat
ic method of improving the highways
Of the state were ever attempted, it
would have to be through state de-
partment or commission, whose bust
ness it should be to look after the
roads Of the state and to formulate
some method Of working and building
ganizing each of the ninety-six coun-
ties in this state and asking them to
send one delegate each to Nashville
In January to draft legislation for the
creation of state department of
highways.
Senator-elect James Joseph Muir
ray, of Marshall county, came over
with Mr.. Dunlap, and addressed the
meeting for few minutes. 7He stated
that in his recent campaign he made
good roads the main plank of his
platform, and pledged that his best
efforts would be devoted to the crea-
ton of better highway system for
this state.
DR.. Porter and Judge Erwin also
spoke briefly upon the work in this
county, pledging their efforts toward
the work.

thing he does when he gifts outen bed

the last thing he does when he goes to

EDDYTORIUL

We happend jest by chanst to
get holt of copy of City paper
which was left in Hen Weathers-
by's store week before last by a
drummer who was to Hens store
tryin to sell Hen bill of goods,
but Hen was too smart for him be-
ing as he diddent buy a cents
worth. Hen says there was time
when he first went into the store
bizness thirty or 40 odd yrs ago
when a dad blamed drummer could
sell him most ennythink he had a
mind to, but hes got over bein that
way.
Hen says it was a sin and a
shame the way drunmers used to
sell him mdse which he diddent
want or have no use for, or emmy
buddy else for that matter jest be
cuz the drummer had a smooth
tung & went and made Hen pur-
chase a big bill of somethink that
proved to be drug on the market
Hen says even now he has in stock
in his store things to sell which
has been on his shells for 80 yrs
and which he ca1kilates he will
never sell even if he lives to be as
old as Methuselern.
Hen says that some of these
mdse a few yrs ago he offered to
folks in Bingville for lessen they
cost him in hard cash to say no
think about the intrust on his mon
ey all that time, but that gradiu1ly
he has begin to mark EN- up agin.
Hen is of the opinion that while
praps they be outen date and style
nevertheless they are not so vally-
bic for their i1trinsick worth as
you might say as for the historick
assoshiashions which clusters about
EN-. In other words Hen thinks
that the day will come when these
old stock of goods which he has
had on hand so long will be so much
like relicks that they will be with
a forchune. He says that espeshial-
ly City folks will pay more for old
fashiond things than they will for
things which is right up to date.
What was it we started out to
write a eddytoriul about ennyhow !?
O yes, we recolleckt now-it was
about the City paper which the
drummer left to Hens store. Well,
after Hen had read the paper thro-
ugh he lent it to Anne Hilllyer, our
talented Loryer & legal lite & Hen
lent it to Miss Polly Watkins who
lent it to somebuddy else whose
name we cant recall who lent it to

| blamed neer wore out.
Be that as it may we happend to
read in this paper that there is a
| good cal of talk about the tariff in
the outside world jest at the pres
ent moment and we thort it might
be a good idee to discuss the tariff
| in a Bugle eddytoriu1, so here goes ::
The main questshion seams to be
whether we shall revise the tariff
or not. Personally as editor &
prop of the Bug1e we are agin re-
vising the tariff. Of course it amt
none Of our bizness- being as we
live off fur enuff from the popolus
centers Of the world so that revi-
sing the tariff wont effeckt us emmy
and so we don't care whether its
revised or not, but ennyhow we are
agin it.
What is the use of revising the
tariff we ask if it don't need revis-
ing7 And it stands to reason that
it don't need no revising for if it
did it would Of been revised long
before this. And sinst it wassent
revised long before this 8, ort to of
been, then why wassent it? That's
what we want to know If it need
ed revising & wassent revised
whose fault was it that it wassent?
Let some of the men who be ta1kin
so big about revising the tariff an
ser these questshions if they can?
In order that the authorities at
Washington will know Jest what
our eddytoriul policy on the tariff
is we be going to mail them a
copy Of the Bugle containing this
eddytoriul and we hope they will
govern theirselfs according and not
go to revising the tariff until they
have considered our views in the
matter I they go ahed and mon
key with the tariff congress don't
need to be surprised if we come
right out and lambaste EN- eddyto-
riuly in the Boogle. Yessir, we'll
criticize where criticizing is due.
AS edditur Of this infIooenchial
newspaper We'll hew to the line and
let the chips fly where they will
Congress cant muzzle the Boogle
and we'll let EN- understand that.

THE RESULT q the election. all ovsl


THE RESULT OF the elections all over
the country indicates that the political
pendulum is swinging to the republican
side. While we are not inclined to
dispute the democratic contention that
it was the European war and not the
tariff that has produced depression in
business, still the sentiment is generally
prevalent that our industries can not
prosper under crude and unsciontific
tariff as was framed by President VIII
son. The demand is for an elastic tariff
that will adapt itself to the fluctuating
conditions Of world commerce, and
which can be obtained by non-partisan
tariff commission, as demanded by the
Republican party. The necessity for
such regulation of our tariff Will
assert itself with elementary force when
the war will be over and European
goods viii be offered almost at nomi-
nal figures in our market to regain the
markets lost by the war and to get the
wheels Of European factories in motion.
With tariff inviting unlimited Euro
pean competition, conditions will arise
for which the democratic party will
justly be held responsible. This anxiety
about the future has reduced the over
whelming majority OF the Democrats in
Congress to mere working majority,
but present causes Of dissatisfaction
have, too, contributed TO that result. The
American people feel that the oppressive
war tax might have been avoided by a
better regulation OF custom dutie9. II
the duty on sugar had been retained,
which was demanded by our agrlcui-
tural interests, the income from that
source would have obyiated the neces-
sity to put an oppressive tax on CON-
meree. An additional cause for dis
satisfaction arises from the utter lack
OF protection to our neutral commerce.
The administration, with utter disregard
TO our national dignity and TO our
commercial interests, submits to all the
CALLING and insulting terms that Eng
land exaets from our shippers and ex-
porters with the result that anmber
OF our most important industries. which
should have reaped golden harvests
from the war, are compelled to curtail
their production TO the great injury Of
our laboring masses. Such blunders
and such weakness make the reinstate-
ment Of the Republican party in our
affairs imperative.
