ENJO|N PERRY CO.,
FROM TAKING OVER
LANDS FROM WAYNE
JUDGE TURNER GRANTS FIAT
FOR INJUNCTION TO THE
LATTER.
LEGISLATIVE ACT AlTACKt
Alleged That Several Thousand
Acres Involved Are Within Less
Than Eleven Miles of the Court
House at Wayne County.

Through its counsel, R. s. Simms,
the county of Wayne has filed a bill
in the chancery court of that county
against Perry County and the officials
OF the latter county, seeking to have
declared unconstitutional and void
two acts of the legislature detatch.
ing thousands of acres of land from
the former county and attaching the
same to Perry county. A fiat for the
injunction was granted here last
night by Judge w. B, Turner.
The same questions raised in the
famous suit of Giles county against
Marshall county, recently decided
here are raised in this case. 1t is
charged in the bill that under acts
passed by the legislatures of 1909 and
1915, there were many farms and
several thousands of acres of lands
taken from Wayne county and attach.
ed to Perry county 1t is alleged that
there several acts are in conflict with
the organic law of the state for the
reason that the consent of two-thirds
of the qualified voters of the terrific.
ry affected was not first had and also
for the reason that the territory in
question is within less than eleven
miles of the court house of Wayne
county from which the same is sought
to be taken.
1t is also charged in the bill that no
surveys of the territory were made,
that the boundary lines are indefi-
mite, uncertain and vague and from
which it would not be possible to as.
certain just what territory had been
transferred from one county to the
other. 1t is the bill it is sought to
forever enjoin the officials of Perry
county from enforcing the provisions
of the acts.
1t is understood that there were
some politics in these legislative
measures and that they have reduced
by forty or more the small democrat
ic vote Wayne county.

thoroughly discussed at the Thursday

The fact that foxes are so plenti-

visitors here the finest reception and
entertainment that it have ever

adlutant general of Tennessee, be-.
fore returning to his home on Tues
day afternoon" | a mfirmly convin-
ced that my estimate of $4,000 for
the crowd in town Monday was rather
conservative. The decorations Of
the homes and business houses, the
magnificent parade, the splendid cat
tie and horses and jacks shown, the
great lot of equipages, the beautiful
women, all combined to make a spec
tacle that will live so long as memory
shall last tell you the people of
this section have a right to be proud
of the showing that they have made
Il have heard from the lips of
every one the very highest praise for

Kellar declines Pattersons challenges
to a joint debate.
He says In the beginning of the
campaign you paraded your own CO.
lebrity by referring to me as I'm
known" Now, when the campaign
is nearly over, and after the people
have spoken against you; now when
your political fortunes are in desper-
ate condition, you attempt by this
challenge to joint debate to galvan-
tze into seeming life your lost cause.
"In your letter you make an issue
which you declare exists between US.
You cannot make an issue; neither
can |, Issues make themselves.
There is no issue between us except
you desire to be senator. /
That a joint canvass between the
members of the same political party,

ders strife and bitterness, and is de-
structive of party unity and harmony,
the democrats of Tennessee know
from the sad and bitter experiences
Of recent years. have conducted
my candidacy along lines tending to
bring about peace and harmony to our

cline a joint canvass with you"
Mr.. Mcclellan further declares that
his own position on the liquor ques-
ton is well known That it has been
positively and unequivocally stated
in his platform, his speeches and his
answers to questions put by the Anti

ceeds: "In addition to this, on April
20, 1915, at the Lyric Theatre, In

this house never buy anything at the

two fellows with clothes props, mats,

sash, he bawled: "Can you read?''
Yes, MASTER" answered one.
Then don't you see a notice affixed

ITO be sure we do. That's the rea-

PLAY never REAL TRIUMPH
Sheridan Knowles Widely Known
Drama of "Virginius" Is Open
to Criticism.

James Sheridan Knowles, an Irish
schoolmaster, who had also been an
actor, whose father was first cousin
to Richard Brinsley Sheridan, brought
to Macready a tragedy called ''Vir-
ginius,' widely proclaimed as a re-
turn to truth and to nature as against
artificialities of the times
"Virginius" is an admirable exam
pie of the ordinary bourgeois drama,
a bourgeois drama applied, unfortu-
nately, to Roman tragedy. Everyone
knows, of course, the story of the SOL
der Virginius, who killed his daugh-
ter rather than she should fall into
the hands Of Appius.
When Shakespeare dealt with Ro-
man plays he made, it is true, his
characters Englishmen, but he made
them of heroic mold. Brutus and
Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony and the
rest, are certainly not commonplace
even though one can hardly describe
them as accurately drawn in accord
ance with their Latin types.
But of all the characters of Sheri
dan Knowles play it can safely be
said that they are just mediocre, bour
geois, commonplace Englishmen and
Englishwomen of the times.
Virginius, for instance, is an excel
lent father Of the middle class, whom
we could imagine going down to his
city office every day and returning to
the suburbs in the evening. Virginia,
the lovely heroine, is a simpering
schoolgirl-a virtuous idiot
If this is what a return to nature
meant, it must be confessed that 1t
is a kind of nature that we do not
want etuated-Exchange
