FIX THAT ROAD.

Lee Hagen, of Atlanta, tele.
phonGd this Office Thursday as tc
condition of road between Chat,
tanooga and Monteagle. We re-
piled to the best of our ability,
characterizing the last seven
miles before getting to Tracy
City as bad" We thought a
bad road could not get any bad
der" -begging pardon of the
scholiasts-but Mr.. Hagen seems
to have found that it was worse
than bad, as card arrived Mon
day from Monteagle bearing the
following:
Il thank you for the ilforma-
ton, took your your advice, and
got through without any troub-
lie, but you are mistaken about
that stretch of road being BAD,
1t is the d-dest, worst piece of
road in the United States, moth
ing like it between Miami and
Chicago.
Now, a party connected with
this office was over that road
Saturday, and says that only a
little over two miles of it was in
a fierce condition, and this leads
to the question what has become
of the automobile tax money that
is to be spent only on roads be-
tween the different county seats.
This is the only road leading to
Grundy's capital from Martens
capital, and the money should
be used at once TO put that stretch
of road into a passable condition.
Part of the road concerned is in
Marion and the rest in Grundy,
and an effort should be made by
both counties to put it in passa-
BILE condition. 1t is the Chatta-
nooga to Nashville Route, and
will be known as such for many
years to come. Gentlemen in
charge of that automobile tax
money should see that it is spent
where most needed on the desig-
mated roads, and none other.

HOW RAILROAD MEN WORK


men work, and why they are
striving so energetically for the
8-hour law, was afforded Sunday
night when a freight got strand
ed" died., the crew called it
by reason of the 16-hour limit
provided by law on its run hav-
ing expired. 1t left Bridgeport
Sunday morning about 6 O'Clock
on a special run to do extra work
between that place and Dunlap
At South Pittsburg lot of
switching was done. and Dunlap
there was several hours more
switching. On return at Whit
we'll there was a whole more
switching to be done. and the re-
suit was that not all of it was
done, and the train reached here
sometime after 10 O'Clock that
night. not even having time
enough to take sidetrack before
the 16-hour time limit expired.
There was nothing more to do
except notify the superintendent
at Bridgeport and wait till he did
something, or in event he did
not take any action, wait till the
time limit for rest expired when
the same crew could bring the
train in. The superintendent,
however, sent out another crew,
who arrived here about three o.
clock.
The local." mixed freight
and passenger train, has been
late the past week for the same
reason, overwork, and in two
cases the 16-hour limit was reach
ed, and a new crew was sent out.
In this case the mails were de-
layed as we'll as passengers, and
the travelling public had
chance to see for itself how train
crews were overWorked.
From this it would seem that
two questions would naturally
arise.
1.-If there is so much work
on the line that thu present
crews cannot do it, why are not
extra men put on to go out On
the arrival of a crew within time
limit and complete their work?
2. If there is 50 much work.
why cannot the N. c. & st. L
R'y employ men for managers
and superintendent who can
find out ahead of time what has
to be done at points under his
charge, and provide for its
prompt accomplishment accord
ingly,
There are no doubt lots. OF
things in railroading that are
hard to adjust, anl perhaps the
management has its difficulties
also, but to man up a tree it
looks as if the railroads were try
ing to get a maximum amount of
labor out of an insufficient crew
force. without regarding the feel
ings of the men any moe than
one of their engines.
In this strike question there is
no doubt but that an 8-hour law
will be the outcome, and to settle
any losses the railroads may sus-
tain in treating their employees
like men of flesh and blood, we

NJ. P. Church Re-opened

We are glad to report our church re-
opening as a success in every way.
Even the rain did not hinder us from
haying full house. Our church is
certainly decorated in way that
pleases everyone, many remarking that
it was more beautiful than when com.
pleted, ten years ago.
The choir rendered special anthems
both morning and evening. Rev. r.
l.. Morrison and wife were present and
sang several duets, which were ap.
preciated by all.
Rev. Saxbee took for his theme in
the morning the words of Solomon
when he spoke of God filling the tenn.
pie, "The Heaven of Heavens cannot
contain thee, much less this house
which we have built"
In the evening his theme was "The
authority to become the sons of God.
Rev. Bragg gave a report of the ex'
pense which was over S240 in cash, not
saying anything about the many willing
hands which donated their services in
cleaning the old paint and plaster from
the walls. There was money enough
in the treasury to pay all indebtedness
but an appeal was made for funds anC
the people responded literally, sum
being raised to the amount of $4,000
which will be used in repairing the
outside of the church in the spring.
In the evening one soul accepted the
Lord, and special services were an
nounced to continue until Thursday
night.
Surely this was day long to be re
membered by our people.

plan for reform of representation in
National Conventions.
In his first term he was chosen by
the Michigan delegation of Republi.
cans in the house to represent them on
the Republican National Congressional
Campaign Committee and was appoint.
ed by Chairman Woods as Chairman
or its Advisory Committee.
In the present Congress he has gain
ed place on the Committee on Public
Lands, which committee reports to the
house more legislation than any other
committee of the house except one.
Whether the vets or drys are in a
majority in this district is a question,
but there are many who are opposed to
National Prohibition who are not ready
to support candidate for congress
simply because he is satisfactory to the
brewries. The liquor interests ia this
state will have enough to do this year
fighting state prohibition without try
ing to dictate the choice of congress
men and other candidates.
On every hand one hears praise of
