House Burned.

AT about Sun-up on Wednesday
Of last week, the home of rCheal"
Cook in the old first district was
destroyed by fire with all its con-
tents except a little bedding, one
chair and one trunk. Mr.. Cook had
started to the field, when his wife
discovered the FIRE in the roof of
the house, having caught from the
flue or pipe of the cook stove. Mrs.
Cook gave the alarm but her hus-
band got back only in time to save
the articles mentioned and was
burned a little in getting out what
articles he did. John M. Utlev, one

BY reading between the lines on
the editorial page Of the Nashville
Bapner, We are inclined to believe
that paper IS dlsaereeably disap-
pointed because the United States
and Mexico failed to declare war on
each other, The Banner is intense
ly pro-German and we noticed
some time ago that agents Of Kaiser
Bill we're trying to work up war be-

can read right, the Banner went so
far as to advocate a war Of con-
quest--if war came at all--and the

Former State Senator John l.

AMI The PRocREss Is due to give his
candidacy notice in connection with
his formal announcement, which

Mr.. Hare is one of the best known
citizens Of the county--a farmer,
mill and gin man, a merchant, and
as stated, has served the senatorial
district composed of the counties Of
Chester, Henderson and Madison, in
the General Assembly Of the state.
While a member of the law-makine
body Of the state, we differed from
Senator Hare on matters local to
the county, but on the broader
questions, those of statewide inter.
est, on which he was elected, he
stood staunchly by his promises to
the people. allied with the forces
which stood for the moral better
ment Of the state. Mr.. Hare is es.
ssntially an honest man, whose
word we regard to be as good as
any bond and If elected to the Of
flee Of Trustee he may be depend
ed upon to conduct its affairs hon.
estly and to the very best Of his
ability. He is making the race
against a reputable and we'll known
gentleman, Judge W. F. Appleby
and we trust that the election may
come and 60 with no bitterness, but
the exercise Of the fair. square jude.
ment Of the people between the
two candidates. Mr.. Hare enters the
race at late time and as he can
not possibly see the people in per-
son, he asks Of them a fair and i'm
partial consideration Of his Request
for their support on the third day
Of August.
