oyIY ISSUE BE TARIFF
 SAYS PRESIDENT
noclaratiOn Made That Demo- cratic Rule is Majority Should RuIe.-Republican Board of Trustees Act for People.

Washington, Dec. 8.-President Wilson told members of the demo cratic national committee at lunch am today that the republicans had m issue for the next campaign ex- .ort the tariff and that democracy noe certain to win. "Our construc- t;ve work has started an irresistible movement which cannot be stopped J he declared. Anyone who tells you otherwise is talking through his hat
 Mir. Wilson said nothing to indi- rate whether he would again be a candidate for the presidency, Throughout his entire talk in which he dealt with subjects ranging from democratic chances of victory to feat ures of the isolated" life of chief executive, the president was inform al. Taking his place at the head of the table he thrust his hand into his pockets and cast aside what he term ed his dress parade" language and talked freely and confidentially.
 Democrats of all factions greeted his remarks enthusiastically. They left the White House in buoyant spir- its declaring that his optimism had inspired them with new confidence. At the outset the president said he wanted the members to feel they were part of a big family of which he was a member. He asked whether anyone present could suggest any campaign argument other than the tariff which the opposition could ad- vance and the committeeman shook their heads. Nobody knew what sort q tariff must be framed to meet changing conditions resulting from the war.
 Discussing parties and politics gen erally the president insisted that the democratic rule was that a majority rule while that of their opponents was that board of trustees should act for the people. Touching upon the Mexican problem he said this same majority rule should apply in Mexico as well as this country with out regard to the wishes of persons residing in other countries who hold Mexican property. He expressed the belief that in due time peace would come in Mexico when the people were thoroughly tired of raising disturban- ees

SITUATION IN BAL
 kANS IS DEVELOPING
Premier Asquith Advised House of Commons that Any Serious Peace Proposals be First Con- sidered by Allied Powers.

London, Dec. S.-The situation in the Balkans is developing rapidly. The Germans and Bulgarians reached Kenali on the Greek border ten miles south of Monastir thus threatening to outank the Anglo-French forces while the Bulgars who also are supposed to be led by the Germans have attacked the allies extreme right wing near Strumitsa.
 Under this pressure the French have withdrawn from Krivolak sali- ent and at last accounts had taken up position at Demirkapou in a deep gorge about 200 miles from the Greek frontier through which the Saloniki railway runs. Here they were attack ed by the Bulgarians who according to the French were repulsed. The re- tirement of the allies to Demirkapou has led to the report that they intend to abandon the Balkan enterprise en- tirely but the continued landing of troops at Saloniki would seem to deny any such intention.
 1 The expected offensive of the allies at Gallipoli apparently did not mater ialize.
 The Austrians along the entire Ital- ian front have shown greater activity with their artillery and also are us- ing asphyxiating gases extensively. Vienna admits the occupation by the Italians of Austrian trenches near San Michele mountains but says the Italians were later driven out. Aus trian infantry attacks at several point preceded by heavy artillery prepara- tion were repulsed.
 Bombardments from land and sea Turkish positions on the Gallipoli pen insula by the entente allies.
 Any peace proposals of serious character by the German allies di- rectly or through a neutral power will first be discussed by the ententeallies according to statement made to the British House of Commons by Pre- mier Asquith. Until this contingency arose the premier added he would give no further pledge. The premier was replying to request of socialist mem Der of the chamber for a pledge that no negotiations based on evacuation of conquered territory should be re- jected by Great Britain without the knowledge of parliment.

Fire at Martin.

On last Saturday at midnight
fire of unknown origin destroyed
the John Baldridge tobacco re-
handling house, north OF Wells
barn, in Martin. The structure
was 75x4O feet and Of brick, worth
about So, 800. When first dissolved
the fire was burning briskly in the
north (front) end near the office
a TACT which leads more strongly
to the belief that the building
was fred, especially when it is
remembered there had been nc
fire in the building for several
months, and no one in it several
weeks. The building was empty
the loss being confined to the
damage to the structure. The
fire boys had hard fight pre-
venting the destruction OF othel
buildings in close proximity tt
the one burned.

A Correction.


The Enterprise and its editor
have taken no stock in the sena-
torial contest, the position being
clearly defined early in the cam
paign, but someone, probably a
gentleman with an ambition like
G. L. Berry, and, like Beary, ex-
pecting Senator Lea and bis great
powerful daily newspaper" to
help CRAFTY that ambition, en-
deavors to make it appear in the
Lea column Of the Enterprise this
week that the Enterprise had
challenged the charge that Berry
made here as to McKellar's sobri-
Iety.
The Enterprise cares naught
about Mcclellan. It don't make
any difference to this paper if he
consumes a quart of liquor each
morning before breakfast, and
this paper has not entered into a
discussion of the Berry charge
against Mcclellan. But the Enter
prise did state, and it restates here,
that Berry did say in his Dresden
speech that "McKellar need not
tell me he don't drink; | know he
does, and more than that, | know be
gets drunk. | would say this were
Mcclellan sitting here before me-"
In giving resume Of Berry's
speech the Enterprise thus quoted
him, as it did what he had to say
regarding Patterson, and after
Berry tried to wiggle out Of saying
this it was up to the Enterprise to
defend itself Mcclellan, who
is amply able to defend himself
against half a dozen Gee. L.
Berrys.
In the Lea column Of today's En-
terprise appears another communi-
cation from,Berry in which appears
| lie, in that he says, in a letter
dated Nov. IL, and addressed to
the editor of the Commercial Az
peal: THE fact that your editorial
of the fourth acknowledges that
Congressman Mcclellan has at
least drunk pint bottle of whis-
kew confirms all that | said" This
language is attributed to Berry,
and if he means to say that this
confirms" all that he said in his
Dresden speech, he is common
liar, for the Enterprise agian re-
peats that he said what this paper
states above.
Now, it is not the purpose OF the
Enterprise to get into this fight,
but to defend itself, and the
friends OF Senator Lea need not go
around here and charge that the
Enterprise waited until the last is,
sue before the election to take q
position against Lea for such is
not true. This paper has no fight
to make on Lea.

OLDER bun Stronger

10 be healthy at seventy, prepare at
alorty, is sound advice, because In the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your

blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scots,

FINISHING

(By c. D. Lowe, Division of Extension,
University of Tennessee.)
The above question is often asked.
The best answer is to submit the &C.
tual figures of an average experience
and permit them to speak for them
selves.
The data here presented pertains to
the winter of 1894. The steers were
60 head of 2 and 3 year1old East Ten
nessee cattle. They were on feed from
early November until March, feeding
period Of So days. Feeding was done
in a we'll ventilated barn. Cattle had
access daily to an outside lot for exer'
else. They averaged S61 lbs. per head
in weight at beginning Of feed, and
made an average gain of 1T lbs. dur
ing the SO days.

Profits as above are such as can b.
expected by an average feeder during
an average season. The man who fet
the above lot was having his initial ex
perience at the game, and no doub
would have bettered his return other
wise.
The steers lacked quality whic
J made them sell lower and make les
gains than otherwise could have bee
expected.
Should the feeder have raised hi
: stock, no doubt considerable d.
, crease could have been made on hi
cost of cattle at beginning of feed.
The man who makes practice
!. feeding annually, no matter how col
I ditions appear, is the man who enjoy
the greatest aggregate returns.
