WINTERS ICY GRIP
UPON CAMP SEWER

An icy glaze covering every square
inch of ground and no less icy wind
which pierces even army overcoats
has forced suspension of all military
activities save the most necessary
guard and fatigue duty. With zero
temperature last night and a high
wind it was hard to keep warm even
indoors, and in many a tent the oc-
cupants kept turn all night long in
sitting up and keeping the fire going.
Having nothing to do has made the
two days past seem very long, for
even the daily diversion of hikes,
which kept the men fit and in good
spirits during the first snow of three
weeks ago, has now been denied them
as it is much too slippery under foot.
Friday night electric car service
between the camp and Greenville
broke down and was not resumed un-
til Sunday afternoon, when, in spite
of the bitter wind, thousands Of SOL
diers took advantage of the half-hol-
iday to visit the city, The camp was
wholly without electric light Friday
night. Telephone communication
was not interrupted, although the
number of lines leading out from
camp was reduced to three.

REPUBLICANS TO HOLD
CONVENTION ON MAY z
Motion to Eliminate State Judi
ciary Ticket This Year Re-
ceives No Support.

Tennessee Republicans will meet in
convention in Nashville May 2 to Sc
lect candidates for the supreme court
and court of civil appeals. The con-
vention will also formulate Repub-
lican platform for the gubernatorial
race, and transact such other business
as may be necessary.
This was decided at meeting o.
the state Republican executive COM
mittee, which met at the Hotel Her
mitage Monday. The severe weather
prevented a gathering Of leaders,
though there was a full attendance of
members and proxies.
Jesse NJ. Littleton of Chattanooga,
offered a resolution to have no state
judiciary ticket this year, in view of
the war, and because, he said, Au-
gust elections generally do no more
than stir up factional fights. Little
toms resolution received no support,
however, though there seemed to be
a strong sentiment in favor of action
looking toward a non-partisan judi
ciary in Tennessee. In view of the
alleged dissatisfaction with the Dem
ocratic ticket among Democrats, sew
eral members suggested that a sub.
committee be named to see what car
be done in naming non-partisar
ticket.
The final result of the session was
the decision to call convention al
date to be fixed by subcommittee
composed of j. W. Parker, of Alex
andria; R. E. Burnett, Of Chattanoo
ga; and w. F. Clouse of Cookeville.

ADAMS PRAISES BANKS
DE- PARIS ON METHODS
Says No Better Financial Insti-
tutions Can be Found Than
Local Banks.

In letter addressed to The Paris
ian, w. G. Adams, formerly Of this
city but for the past year real es-
tate dealer of Mayfeld, Ky.,- COM
ments as follows on the banks Of
Paris:
Referring to your edition of jan
uary 10, notice the statement of
The Commercial Bank, showing that
their resources were $819,400.11,
which is fine, and want to commend
Paris and Henry county for having
such a fine bank. 1t is larger than
any bank in Mayfeld; the First Ma
tional Bank is the largest bank in this
city, and has resources of $736, ,423.-
63, which is considered (and Isl a
large bank.
There is no business that adds
more to the prosperity and stability
Of a community than good banks,
land good newspapers.) / have said
many times that the banks in Paris
are under the management of able,
clear-headed, capable officers and as
a result those banks have prospered
all the time.
"No better banks can be found any
where than the banks in Paris, Tenn.
They are not only place to borrow
money, but they are good safe place
to leave your idle money.
"They do not only stand well with
the banking commissioners Of the
country, but they are popular in
their county, and each of them does
vast amount Of business each year
"They all have agrowing business
and are becoming stronger and stron.
ger each day.
"The policy Of these banks is to
accommodate as many Of their citi'
zens as possible and they do so with.
out any grumbling or without any
complaint. Il know this by the per
sonal experience / have had with
them.)
"The presidents Of these banks are
able financiers and more clever anc
accommodating set of cashiers ant
other attaches cannot be found.
4 II would advise the people of Hen
ry county to carefully examine the
statements Of these banks and famil
iarize themselves with their capita
stock, their surplus, their deposits
and the manner in which they do bus
mess.
"These facts are worthy of the con
sideration of the people OF Henr!
county and they should inform them
selves more Of the value of thes'
fine banks" y

ORGANIZATION OF NEW
NATIONAL GUARD UNITS
War Department Changes In
No Way Affects New State
Guard Units.

The announcement by the war de-
partment, militia division, that ow-
ing to changed conditions the further
organization Of United States Guards
has been discontinued, but in no way
affects the movement in the various
states to organize national guard
units which have been drafted into
! the federal service, and which are
now in training at the various nation
al guard camps. The present corps
of the United States Guards will be
retained, and the total number of
enlistments will be increased to 1900.
The men will be officered by officers
of the reserve who were graduated
from the training camps, but who
have not yet been called into the SER
vice. The duty Of the guards will
be to enforce the alien enemy and
espionage act and other war meas
ures throughout the United States.
| During the p asst ten days at least
5000 applications have been received
at the war department from men who
desire commissions in the guards.
This provoked the statement relative
to the plans for the United States
guards.
Relative to the organization Of ma
tional guard units, they will be form
ed in the same manner as they were
before the war with Germany. When
The governor Of state makes appli-
cation for the permission to organize
national guard units such will be
granted. The men enlisted will be
taken for a period Of three years as
Imilitiament, and after they have COM
pleted that service they will serve
three years as reserves. Only mer
mot in the draft age will be taken ir
these commands. After the units
have been formed, the governor viii
notify the militia bureau, and th'
units will be inspected, and if it II
found that they come up to the re
duirements Of the Hay law, they viii
be accepted. The officers chosen b!
1.-The men in command will be commits
stoned by the governors just as o.
yore. It will not be the policy O.
the war department to ever call thes'
units into the service, but to keel
them at home to handle internal out
breaks and disturbances. In the cas-
of the Texas division Of cavalry, spe
cial legislation will be enacted to per
|. nit the formation of the unit for pa
. troll duty.
The home guards, it is pointed out
are local organizations, under stat
control, and have no federal status
:, but will be furnished guns and equip
. ment just as soon as congress prov
des money for this purpose, whic
will be soon. No guns and equir
ment are being furnished at tih
time.
