sary to raise this amount. The tax
is being collected and it was decided

the contingent fund and draw the
amount when needed the following
year.
Abstract Questions Again
Like Banquo's ghost the abstract
question bobbed up every day of the
session and was one of the last things
considered by the board. In the aft
ernoon a resolution was introduced
condemning Messrs. Dithmar and

Fox Resolution Lost

A resolution was introduced to re-
move the bounty on fox scalps. 1t
was held the market value Of fur was
such that they would be hunted with
out the county offering any induce
ment. When the vote was taken it
was found the resolution was lost.
Bill DisaTIoWed
A bill of $3.50 was introduced by
the La Vale cemetery for the care OF
the grave of a veteran of the Civil
War. The claim was disaIlowed. 1t
was held that if this were done 1t
would be necessary to extend the Ia
vor to all parts of the county. 1t was
decided, however, to investigate the
whole question of caring for the graves
of veterans buried in the county and
for erecting markers, a report to be
made at the next meeting OF the
hoard. In case such a resolution
should be adopted providing for such
expenses, it would be necessary to
provide for the expense by taxation.

they are sticklers for the biblical in

HELP OF BANKERS.

Regardless of whatever virtues or
faults the public may attach to per-
sons engaged in the business of bank
ing, there Is one thing in which they
are holding first place in Maury
county. They are about the most pat
riotic business men in this section of
the state, and reports from other Sec
tons indicate that they are making
the same record everywhere.
It is one thing to talk patriotism
and to make a big display about it,
but 1t Is quiet another thing to get
down to the hard fact of turning
aloose the cold cash that is needed
to back up the talking. In that par
ticular the bankers have never falter-
ed. Individually they have been the
largest givers to al war causes and
their institutions have pushed the
sales Of Liberty Bonds to the point
where they have had their deposits
heavily drawn upon. For the service
Of selling these bonds they have re-
cefved absolutely no commission. but

LAW AND ORDER LEAGUE.

There is promise of better things
for Tennessee in the organization of
the Law and Order League of the
state. When a number of thoroughly
earnest, aroused and representative
citizens come together with the firm
determination to organize for the pur-
pose of combating lawlessness and
anarchy it may be we'll taken for
granted that some good results will
follow.
The Herald is not too optimistic in
this conflict with lawlessness and
mobocracy. 1t appreciates all too well
the difficulties that must be over
come before this state can attain to
that degree of civilization that will
make the mob absolutely unthinkable.
1t knows that the people must be
brought to a full realization Of the
fact that only in the observance of
the law and in reverence for consti-
tuted authority have we security either
for life or liberty. There is no other
road to follow. But it is going to
take years and years of education and
effort to bring all of the people to a
full appreciation Of this high standard
of civilization.
Nevertheless 1t is the duty of every
patriotic Tennessean to contribute in
every way possible to the success of
this Law and Order League. Its pur.
poses are most laudable. There can
never be any compromise between an
archy and law. One or the other must
in the end attain supremacy. A toler-
alton Of the brutal mob must newt
ably undermine the very foundations
Of our civil fabric. 1t is most appro.
pirate at this time, when so much
blood is being spilled and so much
treasure expended for democracy in
the world, that there should be a de-
termined effort made to wipe out the
stain Of mobocracy.
Our boys are dying already by the

GET IN THE PARADE.

There should be big patriotical
rally in Columbia on Saturday when
the Thrift Stamp parade is held. DR..
Woodbridge, who is in charge Of this
feature, has appealed to every car
owner In the county to come to the
city and join in this great patriotic
demonstration. 1t should be such
response as would strike terror to
the hearts Of the Germans could
they have view of the spirit that
actuates the people of old Maury
county.
II person has two or three cars
he should see that all of them get in
to line. The demonstration must be
worthy of the cause, worthy of the
county to shed, IL necessary, life's
blood that the blessings which the
people here enjoy may be transmitted
untarnished and unimpaired to their
children. If your heart is with these
young men and the hundreds of
others who are soon to follow them
"over there" let that fact be known
by active participation in all of the
war activities.
As The Herald has said before, and
1t is fact that cannot be too often
stressed, this is war Of peoples, not
of powers alone. Every man, woman
and child in America has a part to
play in this awful contest Victory
depends absolutely upon the whole
hearted devotion Of every person who
claims the protection of the Ameri-
can flag. Civilization itself is the
great stake of this contest. What we
have and enjoy is ours because of
the deathless yalor Of those who died
for the sake of principle. Now let us,
their descendants prove ourselves
worthy of this great Inheritance.
This war cannot be fought to vic
torious conclusion without money and
billions of it. Every one. through the
savings stamp can be an active par
ticipant in the financial support of
the nation. Surely, surely no one in
Maury county is going to withhold
this support of the nation. Surely,
surely no one in Maury county is 60
ing to withhold this support. All that
we have is involved. 1t ought not
to be necessary to plead with the
people to- do their duty and it would
not be IL there was proper appre-
citation of the magnitude of the strug-
gle. This parade will be means to
bring about this appreciation.
