failed to serve legal notice on Fried

The tax probing committee will delve

MEN WANT

Offer City $4,000 Annual
Rent-City Wants G. Of G.
and Merchants in One.

Plans for the erection of a new
Chamber of Commerce building, to be
built on the city's lot at Monroe avenue
and Front street, are being discussed
by W. H, Fitzhugh, president of the
Chamber of Commerce with the execu-
tive committee Of his new industrial
and commercial division.
While the Chamber Of Commerce Of
tiicals are thus comforting, directors Of
the Memphis Cotton Exchange have
made the city a flat proposition OF
5000 a year for a 99-year lease on the
corner, for the purpose of erecting a
cotton exchange.
City officials are holding the offer
In allegiance while they make an effort
to have the W organizations get to-
gether on the building project. They
also wish to have the Merchants ex-
change included In arrangements which
they hope the Chamber of Commerce
will be able to work out soon.
The plan favored by City officials Is
the erection of a building commodious
enough to house all three organizations.
The Chamber OF Commerce, of course,
has Il larger membership than either
Of the others, but ii Is estimated that
there are $50 members of the Mer-
chants exchange, and 200 in the Cotton
exchange, No office space would be
for rent in the proposed building, save
to these three organizations.
The executive committee Of the In
0ustrial and commercial division of the
Chamber of Commerce, is made up OF
seven of the leading business men OF
Memphis-men who always ghave
stepped to the forefront in any enter
prise for civic good, 1t Is known that
the Cotton exchange has made no prop

shows such an intensely overbearing atti-
tude, to control the mass of the people,
would be gross dereliction of our duty to
India.
1--WE have nterfered arbitrarily with
some customs; and it is questionable
whether We have done harm or good in
cases where the general opinion cannot be
changed accordingly. We take credit for
the suppression of suttee only to have sub
stituted for it the lifelong degradation of
the widow-the family drudge without
JOY or hope. 'Krishna Kanta's WHIP is the
picture, by native, of the almost inevi-
table escape from such bondage into an
immoral life. Whether suffice, q brief
agony in deeply drugged and excited state,
is not preferable to such degradation is at
least problematical Certainly the human
tians answered the question by preferring
to perish in the flames of their city rather
than be slaves to the Romans. Another in
reference, still more doubtful, was our
opposition to the direct religious legal
precepts by limiting the early age of mar
riage. We might think early marriage
undesirable physically, but India had kept
up an active and teeming population on it's
own lines from long before we were known
in the world. Again, we closely limit the
traffic in alcohol to various races, and we
do not allow the Chnaman his opium in
London If such interfercnces are justified
by moralists, they cannot object to less
dictatoral tuteage in administration. In
no case, except above, have we inter-
ferred with native laws; and though the
marriage law especially shows the utmost
diversity, it has been left precisely in ma
tive variety.
