day shipped two car loads that aver

ly regarded as good average for the

lambs delivered June / will run
around eighty pounds or more. Since
they are bringing fifteen cents and
better this will mean an average of
$l2 head to the growers. The lamb
crop of the county Is larger than 1t

the average, so that those farmers
who have sheep are going to have y

PROTESTS AGAINST
HIGHWAY CONTRACT
DECLARES THAT 1T is
AN OUTRAGE UPON THE LIB
ERTlES OF THE PEOPLE.
To the Editor of The Herald:

To the Editor of The Herald
Not since the days when America
was about to declare her independ-
ence has body of men faced task
so perilous as the one which the high
way commission was forced up against
when letting the contract to build a
road from Spring Hill to Columbia.
Some man estimated the cost per
mile at $4,000 that was before the
court had voted 100000 to construct
one-third of the forty-three miles.
Whoever this gentleman was he evil
IDENTIFY knows nothing about the cost
of roads or he knows nothing about
highwaymen and contractors, for the
bid accepted was $4,000, or three
times the estimated cost. The forty
three miles at this rate will cost ST.,
sos, zoo. Maury county's part will be
$5O1 ,c66.66.
At the estimated cost of 1920 the
forty,three miles would cost $4,000
just $1i,33333 more than Maurys part
as the contract now stands.
To build all the roads of Maury
county at this rate would cost $4,000
600 The county would have to be
sold to pay for them and then maybe
have to vote few bonds
AT any rate these gents were in a
trap. u was either lose the 100000
the state and nation had put I'D or lose
the 100000 the court had voted No
steps backward and only one way for
ward. a bad fix indeed It's reported
that the commission wept bitterly
when it found out that it had to ac-
cept this bid or the state and nation.
al government would withdraw their
money Shame on state and nation
that would SO impose Upon a poor.
helpless. innocent little commission.
With the state and nation setting
Such an example. II no wonder the
section from Spring Hill to Columbia
are willing for the county to bui'd
them one and one-half million dollar
road, while the rest of the county trav-
els b. paths.
Had Maury county been no part Of
the state and nation is it fair to take
money from these benevolent institu-
tions and give it TO contractors. that
is il $4,000 is fair estimate. and it
must be for all authorities agreed on

sippi for $4,000 per mile shipped met
al from Illinois and built, according
to those who have seen it, the best
road to be found anywher.

mess in business way, and eliminate
a lot of things which Maury practices,
especially in this connection, for $500

road.
les to the same old trait which has
manifested itself ever since the days
of Cain, Get something for nothing"
which has led many man into entan
elements from which he was never
able to extricate himself. Maury coun-
ty-shoulds change her political aflilia-
lions to fit her doings to her creed, for
centralized power or concentrated
wealth stands at variance and in oppo
sition to true democracy.
The traveller today finds at least two
advantages of Mr.. Rainey's system
over the present. Namely, the man
who did the travelling did the paying
and Mr. Rainey was held accountable
to the county authorities. Next thing
you know there will be q move on to
abolish our county court.
You who do not want something for
nothing answer this. What right has
Maury county over every other county
in the state and union to this $500, 900?
Suppose that every section of this ma
ton the size and wealth of Maury
county should receive 100000, which
to justice it should have
wherein would MaurN gain. Again
what right has the section from Spring
Hill to Mt Pleasant to take other sec
tons money and build them bou'e
ward. It's Alex Ham,lton's idea on
smaller scale. LOCALIZED robbery.
Maury county has abused the north
since the sixties FOR this very thing
and practiced it in its own home.
Would it notNbe wise in county, state
and nation to Render unto Caesar
that which is Caesar's?" Respectfully

CLOSE DIVISION
EXPECTED WHEN
JUSTICES MEET
ELEVEN OF THE TWENTY-FoUR
MEMBERS HAVE SIGNED CALL
FOR EXTRA SESSION.
BISHOP BEATTY TO SPEAK But NONE ARE COMMITTED
So Far AS Known the Opponents of
the Highway Contract Have No Def
mite Plan to Propose, Even If the
Court Has Any Power to Act.

From present indications the vote
next Monday on the road question in
the special session of the county court,
provided the court has power to take
any action, will be close. Eleven mem
bers of the court have signed the petit
tca for the extra session. This is two
less than majority, but at least three
or four members of the court have not
been seen and are, so far as known,
ncn-committal on any motion. 1t is
likewise true that at least one of the
signers of the petition for the call has
declared that he expects to stand by
the contract but will insist that there
be an additional bond issue of sum
sufficient to construct all of the origi-
nal project.
The eleven members of the court
who have So far signed the call are
Justices Derrybcrry and Farrs, of the
third district; Hardison and Pinskton.
Of the fourth district; Denton, of the
| fifth district; Matthews and English,
of the sixth district; Wilkes, of the
eighth district Carr, of the ninth dis
| trict, and Akin and Stanfil, of the
tenth district. The petition for the
extra session does not commit any
! sgner to any line of action They are
just as free to vote IS they think best
as are the members who have not
signed the call.
So far as known there is no well
defined plan worked out among the OPP
ponents of the road contract on the
Spring Hill road. They are against
the construction of the road at a cost
of $4,000 a mile, but they are by no
means certain that they have a rem
edy or if they have one what it will
be. Chairman William w. House, of
the state highway commission, has
announced that he would attend the
meeting of the court here Monday and
defend the action of the state highway
commission and explain its reasons
for letting the contract at $4,000 a
mile
One thing is certain, despite the fact
| that the farmers are behind with their
work, there is going to be a gOodly
crowd of people in town Monday. In
terest in the highway project is much
more intense than it is in the demo
cratic convention to be held Saturday.

PLANNING SALE Of
CHAUTAUQUA TICKETS
GUARANTORS DIVIDE TERRITORY
AND WILL MAKE A VIGOROUS
DRIVE AT ONCE.

Guarantors of the Chautauqua ticket
sale met Tuesday and planned Wig
OrOus campaign for the sale of the
$50 tickets for which they are pedg-
cd. The city and county were divid-
ed into districts after the manner of
the drives during the war and guaran-
tors in groups of twos were assigned
to each territory. These guarantors
will sell the tickets for which they
have written pledges in their respec-
tive territories and in addition can
vass for others.
The Chautauqua tent this year will
be located on the lot to the east of the
County High School, an ideal location,
near the center of the city, with plen-
ty Of shade and air. The program is
one Of the most ambitious ever pre-
scented to the people of Columbia and
Maury county and no trouble whatev-
er is anticipated in the sale of the
tickets.
In the list of guarantors published
in The Herald yesterday the name Of
Alfred Fleming Thomas was inadyer-
tently omitted. Mr.. Thomas is one
of the most enthusiastic supporters of
the Chautauqua and has already pledg-
ed himself to the sale of not less than
fifty adult tickets.
