COLUMBIA FIRM
is WINNER OF
EXPRESS SUIT
FULL CLAIM ON EGGS is ALLOW.
ED BY JURY IN CIRCUIT COURT
AT NASHVILLE.
ACT PROVIDENCE CLAIMED
Long Delay Alleged to Have Been
Due to Washouts on Railroads, But
the Plaintiff Alleged Negligence on
the Part of Carriers.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 21.--Two
loss and damage claim suits which at.
tracted great deal of interest anon
egg and poultry shippers of this sec.
ton of the South and which are of
general interest to the trade all over
the country were tried here a few
days ago.
The suits We're filed against the
Southern railroad in 1916 by the C.
q. Anderson Produce Company of
Knoxville to recover damages on
car of live poultry and by the Column
bia Produce Company, of Columbia to
recover damages on car of live poul-
try, delayed in transit on account of
floods.
The shipments were billed to east
ern markets and left Knoxville on the
same train--,Iuly 10, 1916 The train
reached Asheville, N. c., where it
was held up on account of washouts
ahead. The train was held at Ashe-
vile several hours and then ordered
back to Morristown. In the meantime
more washOuts had occurred along
the line and the train was unable to
get back with the result that it was
held up Is days. The eggs were "a
days in reaching destination and poul-
try twenty;one days, both showing
heavy loss. Claims were promptly
fled and turned down On the ground
that they had been delayed by an act
of Providence and the railroad could |
not be held responsible. Suit was
then filed to recover damages, the |
plaintiffs contending the railroad was |
negligent in carrying the cars into a
Hooded district, knowing that an I'M
precedented food had occurred. AS
an evidence and to bear out their con-
tentions they produced in court the
annual report prepared by Fairfax Har-
iiooh, piColuoul VI ll6 southern lines,
which contained an elaborate report
of the flood and which among other
things showed that a report of the
food had reached Knoxville shortly
after the. train on which the eggs and
poultry in question were on left. The
plaintiffs claimed that had the rail
road used due diligence it could have
stopped the train and brought it back,
the cars to be transferred to
another line so they could have reach
ID destination without delays as was
lone with other cars shipped the
same day. IN
In all the claims amounted to more
han $4,000 and the jury awarded the
plaintiffs the full amount asked for
With interest at per cent.
The case was tried before Circuit I
court Judge A. G. Rutherford of Da- /
'idson county. Perkins Baxter rep =
esented the plaintiffs. {

upon which voters can qualify for the

While it is true that there is no
contest. for county Offices and will be
none, the incumbents having been de-
clared the regular nominees of the
democratic party, there are more than
likely some local contests for county
board of education or constables that
will attract attention, and If voters
want to. qualify they should not long
er neglect the matter.
Outside of the owners of real es.
tate there are comparatively few yot.
ers in the county who have paid Doll
taxes for last year. The collections
by the delinquents when the books
were turned over to them by the trus-
tee were very small, in some districts
only three or four poll taxes being
reported paid. The owners of real
estate cannot escape the tax as it is a
lien on their lands, but every year
there are thousands of poll taxpayers
who do not settle with the trustee un.
less it is an election year when thew
are intensely interested in the result |
of the contest.

WOULD ORGANIZE
ASSOCIATION TO
TEST COWS HERE
COUNTY AGENT M'LEAN is TRY.
ING TO INTEREST FARMERS IN
COOPERATIVE MOVEMENT.
WILL REQUIRE Is HERDS
Prot. DonnelI M. Galloway, of High
School Faculty Is Assisting in the
Work During Summer Vacation.
Advantages Are Set Forth.

County Agent Mclean is making a
determined effort to organize a COW
testing association in Maury county.
With the rapid development of the
dairy interests here due to the estab.
lishment of the creamery and the To-
cation of several milk stations a test
ing association is now a matter OF ne
cessity and Prof. Mclean believes
that the farmers are ready for its or
ganization.
In his efforts to launch this progress
sive r4pvement Prof. Mclean is being
assisted by Prof. Dennell NJ Gallo
way, of the high school faculty. Profs.
Mclean and Galloway have been visit
ing and comforting with the farmers
who own herds and they have been
very greatly encouraged. 1t will take
about twenty-five herds of dairy cat.
tie to organize the association.
Only recently testing association
was organized in Marshall county and
the results have proven as they have
elsewhere, most satisfactory. In fact
it isionly through the association that
the dairy farmers can actually ascer.
tain, with very little cost, whether or
not their cows are paying or whether
they are simply "parlor boarders.' 1t
is altogether too expensive for the
average farmer with a small herd to
pay for a tester, but through the CO.
operation of other farmers they can
enjoy at all times the services of an |
expert and know whether or not they
have register of merit COW in their
herds.
If there are any farmers in the
eounyt who are interested in the or
of the association and
want the details they can get full in
by calling on Prof. Mclean,
he county agent.

AUTOMOBILES NOT LIABLE.
TO TOLLS ON TURNPIKES.
DECLARES JUDGE TURNER.

/ the .,road-bed may be fourteen feet
wide and six inches thick, the stones
to be broken Of a SIZE not exceeding
one'half pound in weight.
Progress has brought into exist.
ence different grade and class of
carriage, the automobile, requiring a
different character of road. Automo-
biles have now come into common
use Can it be sad that road de-
signed for vehicles of 1875 is sufi-
Gent for the requirements of new and
improved vehicles of the present day?
Toll road construction must advance
In the same ratio as the improvement
In highway transportation.
1T may be said that the turnpke
company is complying with the terms
OIL us charter as to the kind of road
to be constructed and maintained. In
reply 1t is sufficient to say that the
kinds of vehicles provided for in the
charter were horse-drawn moving
probably upon an average of not more
than five miles per hour. The re-
qunrments for such transportation are
entirely Insufficient for the twenty
mile per hour motor drawn automo-
bile. Can the public be forever bound
to system and character of road de-
signed more than forty years ago?
think not. Until the people through
appropriate legislation defines the
kind of road and the charges for auto.
such roads must be confined
to their OF. ginal powers and privileg.
es. Their relief is to be found in leg
lslation to meet the advancing tide of /
progress. If it cannot be found there.
[hen such companies must suffer the !
fate of those who fall behind.
Il am of the opinion that the courts
awe no power to require any better
'oad than that provided in the char.
.er, neither have they any power to
extend the authority to collect tolls
IN vehicles not contemplated therein.
1t follows that the plaintiffff can.
lot recover in this action.

away at his home June 16 in McEw-

Mr.. Parrish's death at ripe age OF

Mr.. Parrish, during the many years
allotted him, served not alone his i'm,

as well, f-,r at the outbreak of the
C.vil War he enlisted in the Confed-

He was one of six brothers who
served the Confederacy in the war

incident in his service as gunner

fire, but refused to obey the order. for
the moment, as he saw a number of
his own troops returning to their
lines, in position that would have
meant their death at his hands. had
he pulled the lanyard when first or

THE FALSE ROAD"

Some remarkably true-to-life
scenes of New York's underworld
are a feature of Enid Benefits new
photoplay, The False Road which
will be on view at the Liberty thea
ire October 10 and 20.
The pretty star has the role of a
girl-crook, member of a notorious
gang. One of the most colorful cpl
sOdes shows the banquet given to her
sweetheart upon the occasion of his
release from Sing Sing prison. The
gang leader is the POSTMASTER and
the entertainment is of a most jazz
full character. If you think crooks
are troubled with uneasy consciences
and don't enjoy themselves in pri-
vate, this scene will prove an eye
opener.
But the guest of honor at the
height of the revelry announces that
he intends to go straight 1t COM
pletely spoils the party. Moreover,
it leads to an absorbing series of
adventures that finally end happily
for the two chief characters involved.
