MULE TRADING IS
AGAIN VERY ACTIVE
LONG cared ANIMALS ARE IN
FINE DEMAND BUT SUPPLY
IS SMALL.

Quite a number of mules were
brought to the city today and trading,
considering the number here, was
pretty lively. 1t really looked for a
time as if there was more demand
than there were mules to supply it..
The mules shown were generally of a
fine class and those that changed
hands brought good money. The
mule business for all three of the
Mondays of this month has been
good; the demand has been first rate
and the prices have been generally
most satisfactory. Some exception
ally good prices have been paid. It
is probable that the total transac-
tons for the month will come very
near touching the record.

INSURANCE S2,5oo.

Special to The Herald.
PULASKI, Tenn, Jan. 19.-The
store of J. Paulk & Son at Buford Sta
ton was destroyed by fire Saturday
night together with entire contents
The postoffice was located in this
store and was also destroyed. 1t is
not known what caused the fire, but
it was at first thought that the store
and possibly the postofflce department
was robbed and afterwards the torch
applied to cover up the tracks, but
an inspection of the safe showed that
none of the contents had been tam
pered with, but the object Of the
thieves may have been inly goods. The
loss is estimated at $4,000 with s2,50s
insurance.

BARKER EXPLAINS
INCREASE OF RATE
BUT FOR HIS ACTION LOCAL
AGENT WOULD HAVE AOVANC-
ED THE CHARGES.

Secretary VIM. Barker, of the re-
publican progressive state executive
committee, this morning made this
further statement with reference to
the advance in express rates:
Replying to article in yesterdays
paper from Mr.. Hendley allow me to
give my version of the matter.
In conversation with Mr.. Owens,
agent Of the Southern Express Co. of
this city, l asked about new rates eff
fective Feb. and he told me of the
interstate business and in most in
stances showing an advance over
present rates and he informed me
that from what information he had
he was to use new rates on all bus
mess whether interstate or intra-
state, also showed me an advance
over present rates. | then took the
matter up with Mr.. Avent, secretary
of the state railroad commission, who
denied Mr.. Owens authority to use
the advanced rates. Yesterday after
wiring Mr.. Avent of what Mr.. Owens
had to say, Mr.. Owen some thirty
minutes later phoned me that he had
Just been advises by Mr.. Minor, SUI
perintendent Southern Express Co.,
at Nashville, not to use new rates on
intra state business, but to use old
rates until he was further advised.
Now let the public draw their conclu-
sions.
Mr. Avent has given me all assur-
ances that no advances will be grant
ed any express company unless same
is accepted by all southern states at
conferences to be held in Atlanta

TO PLANT LARGE
MELON ACREAGE
CULLEOkA GROWERS MEET AND
AGREE TO GROW ABOUT
NINETY ACRES.

Growers of canteloupes had a
largely attended and enthusiastic
meeting at the offices of the Culleoka
Produce Company in Culleoka on
Saturday afternoon. AS a result of
the meeting it is assured that from
ninety to 100 acres will be planted
in these melons during the coming
esason. Among those who attended
the meeting were several who have,
in the past been very successful in
the growing of melons. They gave a
history of their experience in the
production of the crop and declared
that it had ben about the most pro-
fitable that they had ever grown.
Practically all Of the growers last
year made a good profit from their
crops There will be several this
season who have not heretofore
planted melons who will do so, and
with favorable seasons the cante-
loupe crop in the Culleoka section
should be one of the most profitable
ever grown there.
Arrangements have been made by
the Culleoka Produce Company for
the marketing of the melons, that as
sures the growers fair returns They
are no longer at the mercy of for
eign commission merchants and this
fact has done much to encourage the
production Of the crop.

Definition of Sherman Law

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21-Presidens
Wilson personally laid before a Joint
session of congress Tuesday the fun
damental principles of the democrat
ic administration program for deal
ing with the trusts and big busi-
ness"
The President presented the prob
lem, he said, as it lies in the thought
.of the country" reiterating that pri-
vate monopoly is indefensible and in
tolerable,' and declaring that con-
scientious business men throughout
the nation would not be satisfied untfl
practices now deprecated by public
opinion as restraints of trade and
commerce were corrected.
We are now about to write the ad-
ditional articles of our constitution OF
peace" said the President, 1.-The peace
that is honor and freedom and pros
perity."
Besides suggesting the scope of leg
islation the President made a person
al appealfor the atmosphere of friend
illness and cooperation in congress
while handling the problem.
The antagnism," he said, be-
tween business and government in
over. We are now about to give ex-
preston to the best judgment OF
America, to what we know to be tho
business conscience and honor of tho,
land. The government and business
men are ready to meet each other half
way in common effort to square bust
ness method and public opinion and
the law"
The chief points which the Presf-
dent single out as a basis for legis-
lation we're:
1-Effectual prohibition of the in
terlocking of directorates of great
corporations-banks and railroads, in
dustrial, commercial and public SER
vice bodies.
"A law to confer upon the inter-
state commerce commission the pow
er to superintend and regulate the f.
nancial operations by which railroads
henceforth are to be supplied with
| the money they need for their proper
evelopment and improved Transport
tation facilities. The President made
it clear that the prosperity of the
railroads andn the prosperity Of the
country are inseperably connected"
in this regard.
definition of the many hurtfui
restraints of trade" by explicit legis-
lation supplementary to the Sherman
law.
| 1.-The creatin of commission to
aid the courts and to act as clear
! ing house of information in helping
| business to conform with the law.
! Provision of penalties and pun
/ ishments to fall upon individuals re-
sponsible for unlawful business prac-
tees.
| 6-Prohibition Of holding compa-
