There are three ways OF

by sowing the seed In prepared

and third. by planting sets.

Obituary

Mrs. Ethel Ozier was born Au-
gust Is, 1896. and died February
26. 1917, aged 20 years, 6 months
and II DAYS. She was married TO
Mr.. Ed Ozier on August 90, 1914.
Mrs. Ozier joined the New Hope
Baptist church about six years ago,
but was a member of the Mt. Nebo
Baptist church at the time of her
death. She vas a good christian
woman, neighbor and companion.
She often spoke to her parents,
after her marriage, about the kind
treatment in the Ozier home. The
husband and family did all that
loving hands could do to alleviate
her pain and prolong life, but the
Lord said enough; so on Monday
evening, February 26, dear EtheIs
spirit was waited into the paradise
Of God.
She leaves a weeping husband,
father and mother and large
number of relatives and friends tC
mourn her death. We believe
some sweet day we will meet bel
where the wicked cease from
troubling and the weary shall fine
rest.
Funeral services were at Mt
Comfort, conducted by Rev. I. NJ

FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1917
COUNTRY OUTRAGED

Twelve senators, seven Republi-
cans and five Democrats, led by
Senator LaFollette, progressive
Republican, and encouraged by
Senator Stone, Democratic chair
man of the foreign relations COM
mittee, prevented the United States
senate from giving President Will
son the power to arm trade ships,
and defeated the wishes of an
overwhelming majority of the SEN
ate. The president denounced the
action of the small minority as the
most reprehensible in the history
of and civilized nation" and the
country agrees with the president.
The conduct of these senators in
defying the will of such a large
majority of the senate was an out
rage to the country, and will be SO
considered. For twenty-six hours
they fillibustered and prevented ac-
tion. Seventy-siX senators, in
eluding thirty Republicans. signed
q manifesto declaring their support
of the bill and placing blame for
the defeat on the Gllibusters. The
newspapers of the country are de-
nouncing the action of these sena-
tors as outrageous, and if the
president can find any way to JUS
tify him, he will act without au-
thority of congress.

THE SCHOOL LAWS

There is quite a controversy on
in Tennessee over the school laws.
There is an effort being made to-
have the legislature change the
laws and take from theschool fund
quite a large sum of that which
goes to the schools of the state
under the present laws.
Porter Dunlap has issued a state.
ment in which he shows the amount
of money that will go to the COM
mon schools of each county under
the present law and also under the
budget educational bill, which he
proposes. The data which he Of
fers, gives each county an Oppor-
tunity to study it's own conditions,
land we give the data as to Carroll
county.
The amount of money which
comes to this county and spent in
the cost of operation under the
general educational bill now in
force according to Mr.. Dunlap IS
as follows:
General fund, 1882 50; fund
to equalize school term, S420. To-
tai, S8,372.55. Under the pro-
posed budget educational bill the
scholastic population OF Carroll IS
SAP; every July amount received,
! 81, 1926. SO; every January amount
received, S4,326. 80, Total, S.,
653.06. Annual amount received
from fund to equalize terms,
$1,889 Sc; high school euualiz-
ing fund, $500. Grand total,
S12,04241. According to Mr..
lDunlap's statement the rural
schools will get more money and
! longer terms than under the pres
ent law. We notice, however,
that the educational leaders of the
state are opposed to the Dunlap
plan.

PRESIDENT WILSON

Woodrow Wilson was inaugu-
rated president for second term
last Monday. If he lives be will
serve the people four more years.
The Inauguration ceremonies
placed him at the head of our gov
the most important po-
sition in the gift Of the American
people. The people, by their con-
fdence in him, made it possible
for him 80 assume the exalted POI
sition, and upon his judgment they
are willing to rest.
No president ever passed through
a more tempestuous period. He
has met obstacles and confronted
issues that would have perplexed,
if not dazed, any president that has
occupied the presidents chair in
the past,
He has tried hard to serve the
people to the best interest of The
country. He has labored day anc
night to keep this country out o.
war and to maintain Its honor. HI
has made a great president and,tht
country is with him.

PISTOL "TOTING"

A most drastic law aimed at piS-
toll "toting," was introduced in the
house by Mr.. Chandler, of Nc
MINI. The bill makes carrying a
pistol a misdemeanor, subject to a
a fine OF from $50 to 500 and i'm
prisonment of from not less than
three months nor more than eleven
months and twenty-nine days.
This prison sentence is not discre-
tionary with the Judge. The
drawing of a pistol, except in cases
of self-defense, is made a felony and
provides a penalty of imprison-
ment in the penitentlary for not
less than three years. Consider
able argument resulted over the
bill, which finally passed by vote
of II to 0.
There is little excuse for carry
ing a pistol, and there is hardly
any foolish habit that gets more
people into serious trouble. There
is hardly a court held in this county
where one or more are not con-
yicted with pistol "toting." As a
rule they submit their cases and
ask the mercy of the court. Ere
Carroll County democrat. (Huntingdon, Tenn.) 188?-1971, 1917-03-09

quently a young fellow is indicted
for carrying a pistol. He pays
a heavy fine and his old father has
to foot the bill. A heavy Jail sem
tence and less Gne might do the
young fellow more good and it
will certainly be less expensive to
the father.
Postol toting" is not only a
very ugly habit, but it is one ex-
ceedingly dangerous. We would
be glad to see some law enacted
that would eliminate the pistol.
