The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-03-27

Mayor Mcneil, Of Rives, was in the
city Tuesday and very kindly proffered
us the information that Rives was q
very busy spot just now. The tracks
are very thickly settled with negroes and
mules and crossties, preparations for
double tracking on the |. G. Railroad.
Rives is also in the flush Of prospective
building. The bond issue means in all
probability new $4,000 schoolhouse
and the new depot spirit has also de-
veloped surprisingly. A new depot at
Rives would Be hailed with delight not
only BY the citizens there but by the
travelling public. Good for Riyes.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-03-27

The Commercial is doing its best to
look at things 10 fair aud honorable
way We are interested in public mat
ters, in politics, in general uplift in
everything and very much interested in
democracy. We use the little d advis-
edly. The cap leads to a name, the lit
tie letter to the principle involved. We
make an effort to strike level between
extreme opinions, to get at the milk in
the cocoanut-th justice OF it all. The
government should be strictly fair be-
tween man and man, whether laborer
or millionaire. The millionaire should
have no advantage that the government
cannot guarantee to the laborer. The
laborer should not have any more priv
ilege than the millionaire is entitled to.
Now, we try to get a conservative esti-
mate OF things, but when once fixed in
a conviction we could be induced to adj
NIT that the paper is positively radical
in advocating that principle, as much
so as we can-as much so as the rules
OF law and etiquette will allow. We
may be mistaken sometimes, maybe
often. Just the same we try, and hope
that the mistakes are not irrevocably
bad, or not as plain as they we're in the
case of Mrs. Niekleby, mother OF Nich-
olas, Of Dickens fame. Mrs. Nickleby
was exuberant over the fact that she en-
tertained at dinner. She was relating
the fact confdentially to friend. She
was very happy over the success Of the
affair. There we're some visitors and
Mrs. Nickleby had roast pig for dinner.
AS an additional happy incident to the
occasion a nightingale in its cage in the
dining room was singing, but on reflec- |
lion Mrs. Nickleby said that it was not
! nightingale but parrot, and the par
'ot was not singing either, but cursing. |
Anyway Mrs. Nickleby survived the cpl
lode and recalled it with some pleasure,
ust as we hope to do when we go to
ook over the files that have piled up in
he office for the past thirteen years.

Along the line OF argument we were
making last week about discriminatiye
freight rates comes the case just decided
in which Cairo was favored in rate MAX
ing over Paducah. The Paducah Board
of Trade against the Illinois Central
Railroad was heard by the Interstate
Commerce Commission and a partial
victory was won in their efforts to have
discrimination against Paducah in favor
Of Cairo removed. Our contention, how
ever, differs in the relation Of shipping
points in the fact that smaller or inter-
mediate stations are sacrificed to the
advantage OF the larger ones, which are
practically all terminal or water ship
ping centers, The railroads have about
absorbed the steamship lines and it is
most time to take up and make total
revision OF the freight schedules.

We did not intend, although our
language in the paper was probably not
what it should have been, to be dis
courteous to Mr.. Cole, who was here on
the 18th inst as a guest of the Business
Mems Club at the banquet. Mr.. Cole
talked on the subject OF railroads and
we might have nisinterpreted his mo-
tives. Anyway we humbly beg the
gentleman's pardon, If that will suffice
toward making amends. Mr.. Cole is
very prominently associated with BUSH
ness, church and public interests in
Nashville and very much esteemed as a
