PASSENGER TRAIN ROBBED
NEAR COLUMBIA, TENN.

The train robbing industry, which
has ever flourished throughout the
United States, especially in the West,
has broken out-and with good sue
cess to the robbers-in Tennessee.
On Thursday of last week, at
point on the Louisville g. Nashville
Railroad, ten miles South of Colum-
bia, train No. 7, from Nashville to
Birmingham, carrying day coaches
and Pullmans, was held up and while
the passengers were not molested, the
express and mail cars were looted of
matter estimated at S60,000.00.
After the robbery, which was done
by four men, the engine was cut loose
and sent down the road, running wild
until it reached about the station of
Wales, Giles county, some seventeen
miles. The bandits made their escape
in an automobile-and many another
thief will join in the hope that they
may be captured.

OLD CARRANZA is
KICKING AGAIN.

The result of the American puni-
tive expedition in Mexico last week,
to catch and kill-or kill and leave no
need for catching-the bandits who
are continually committing outrages
on Americans, was protest from
President Carranza and the request
for the immediate withdrawal of the
American soldiers. 1t was reported
in the press of last Saturday that
four bandits had been killed in Mexico
by the pursuing Americans-and that
was entirely too good luck to quit on,
simply because of a request from that
arch-scoundrel, Carranza. Carranza
has shown that he can not or will not
put an end to "Weeyah" (Villa),
hence, as Americans are often the
victims, it is time for Uncle Sam to
quit fooling with anybody in Mexico
especially the villainous ruler who
sent telegram of congratulations to
the German Kaiser, on the occasion of
the latter's birthday anniversary.

THE RED CROSS
HOME SERVICE.

On the occasion of recent visit Of
Mr., Crane, of the auditing depart
ment- Of the Atlanta office of the Ma
tioual Red Cross, the Lexington
Chapter decided to take up the Home
Service work in which to apply the
Red Cross funds belonging to the
Henderson County Chapter.
When we tell our readers that we
have as many as twenty-five, to-some
extent disabled soldiers, they can see
that there is considerable work ahead
of the local Red Cross Chapter.
These returned soldiers will not only
be looked after and their needs ascer-
tained, but a complete roster Of the
returned soldiers of the county will
be secured and the Chapter get in
touch with them.
Just as soon as practicable the
work will be taken up actiely by the
local Chapter and it is under promise
to push it until no return soldier shall
be overlooked.

j.. s. GOVERNMENT
TAKES OVER SUGAR.

It was given out from Washington
last Saturday that active control Of
sugar prices had been resumed by the
government, on agreement that liz
cense will be revoked BY the Food Adj
ministration when it is shown that
dealers have been profiteering. In
this connection the following state
ment was made.
"Sugar should reach the consumer
at approximately IL cents pound, it
was announced, based on the owner
ship of the entire domestic and Cuban
crop by the United States Sugar
Equalization Board, which is selling
to refiners at 7.2S cents pound. Re-
finers are under contract to sell at 8
cents, less the two per cent. discount
for cash, wholesalers and jobbers are
allowed maximum Of 68 cents per
100 pounds for handling, and retail
are permitted a profit of one to one
ard one-half cents per 100, making
fair price II cents, except in cases
where dealers have purchased at an
unreasonable" price due to misun-
derstanding in the trade. When this
is fact, a reasonable advance over
the actual cost will be permitted"

FARMERS INSTITUTE
VERY IMPORTANT ONE.

The West Tennessee Farmers In
stitute which will convene at the Ex-
pertinent Station Farm, Sept. 2, for q
three days session, II the largest and
most important meeting of farmers
in this section of the State.
Previous to last year delegates were
named by the several county insti-
tutes, but this plan has been abandon
ed because it was felt that the dis
trict institute should interest all
farmers. Therefore, everyone is urg-
ed to attend.
There will be discussions of crop
ping, lining, livestock, marketing,
with reports of cooperating selling
associations. A leading feature will
be the discussion of the tenant sys-
TENS in practice in West Tennessee,
by farm owners, renters and bankers.
In addition there will be an auction
sale of purebred Percheron horses,
the first offerings from the station
stud.
The women's program has been es-
pecially prepared to interest all who
take part in the home life on the
farm. 1t is hoped that every coun-
ty west of the Tennessee river will
be represented by big delegation.
Use your automobile, and bring your
neighbor if you have a vacant seat.

UNION STRIKERS
WIN THEIR FIGHT.

The strike of street car employees
at Nashville came to an end last Fri
day in complete victory for the
strikers, after tie-up of but twenty
four hours. The Nashville Light &
Railway Company agreed to recog-
nize the union and to reinstate all
men who had been fired because of
affiliation with the union.
The car men agreed to make no ad-
ditional demands for a year and both
sides agreed to arbitrate all differ
ences in the future.
Ais well that ends well.
However, in Muskogee, Oklahoma,
the prospect did not look so good for
participants in q strike to be inaug-
urated last Saturday morning. Citi-
zens, it is said, would man the cars
as motormen and conductors and
would as tas armed guards, if neces-
sary. 4
1t seemed that in Nashville the
sympathy of the public was with the
strikers.

STATUS OF HIGH
SCHOOL CONTRACT.

In the matter of bids for the con-
struction of the Henderson County
High School building and its furnish
ings, the bid of Mr.. Inflow, of Martin,
stands until action can be taken in the
October Quarterly County court.
The bid of Mr.. Inflow at S42 ,5S0.50
does not include the item Of approx
mately $4,000 for plastering, which
must be added, which figures leave a
shortage of about $4,000, which must
be made good by the court if the
building is constructed. The Board
does not feel that it should assume re-
sponsibility for the $1,000.
Members of the Court will be seen
and if they are favorable to action
by their body in quarterly session, it
may not be necessary to await the
session of the court.
1t will be remembered that the bid
of Mr.. Inflow, even with the plaster
ing item of $4,000 added, is still more
than $4,000 under that of Mr.. Par
rish the Jackson contractor, who
made the other bid.
The Inflow bid does not contemplate
the erection of dormitories, but the
appropriation of the Legislature will
be expended in constructing and fur
nishing the High School building.

DISCHARGED SOLDIERS
MAKE GRAVE CHARGES,

Vigorous protest against the treat
ment of men discharged from the
army suffering from tuberculosis is
voiced by the discharged soldiers who
have been sent to the National Sol
diers' Home at Johnson City, Tenn,
by the bureau of war risk insurance
for the treatment of tuberculosis in
Cured in the line of duty. A letter of
protest, which has been submitted to
the Hon. w. E. Andrews, chairman of
the committee on investigation Of the
bureau of war risk insurance, charges
the bureau with incompetence or
criminal negligence in sending tuber-
cular men to an institution of this
kind.
Disclosures of a startling nature
are made, charging the total unfit
ness of the institution for tubercular
patients; the lack Of adequate scien-
tific medical diagnosis and tratment
of the disease; the improper and mad
equate sleeping quarters and badly
prepared food and the discrimination
against tubercular patients in favor
of the officers Of the institution and
their families, other members of the
home and the general public.
An urgent appeal is made for i'm
mediate correction of an evil which
the patients themselves declare ad-
mits no delay. Conditions are said
to be so bad that the men who can
in any way obtain the funds neces-
sary to secure the proper treatment
at private sanitariums are preparing
TO leave the institution and care for
themselves while there is yet time to
effect cure, rather than risk the de-
lay incident to securing correction
of the existing evils.-Nashville Ban
ner.
The foregoing is denied in toto by
the governor of the Soldiers Home.

TO MANY OTHERS STEALING.

The employment of defective

act Of dishonesty and ought TO be
punished as such. How it happens
that a concern or an individual en-
