Union City As Trading Center.

Union City is the county seat Of
Obion County.
Obion County is one of the richest
agricultural counties in the State
and comes pretty close to the top
of the list of wheat producing coun-
ties.
Other staple crops of the county
are cotton, corn and oats, while the
livestock industry is thriving one.
The county is level and we'll tim
bered and it has an abundant water
supply. 1t is bordered on the west
by Reelfoot Lake, on the east by
Weakley County, on the south by
Dyer and Gibson counties and on the
north by Kentucky
Three railroads cross the county
the Illinois Central, the Mobile and
Ohio and the Nashville, Chattanooga
& St. Louis The last two roads cross
at Union City
The population of the county ac-
cording to the census of 1920, is 49,
393 and that of Union City is 4,412.
There are eleven high schools and
S5 elementary schools in the county,
providing for school population
slightly in excess of 10000.
Union City boasts two weekly
newspapers, two banks, railway
shops and numerous mills.
1t is one of the most progressive
communities in West Tennessee, and
as a livestock market and trading
center it ranks second to no other
city in that section of the State.
The county contains $40 square
miles, divided into 1878 farms. The
assessed valuation for taxation pur-
poses is $29,793,421 This represents
approximately $1,000 for every man,
woman and child in the county
Union City merchants and traders
have catered to this rich community
and together the farmers, and mer-
chants are increasing the wealth of
the county. They are a far-sighted,
progressive people,
Union City is fertile field for
manufacturers and wholesalers to
cultivate. Indeed, its fame as an
agricultural and trading center has
attained to such proportions that
Louisville business men are actively
campaigning for that city's patron
age.

The improvement in train service
between Nashville and Union City

Excel Miller, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
R. l. Miller of the Memo Hotel, was
brought in Monday with a broken
leg. The young man was oiling a
tractor and jumped off to get on a
grader when car came up and he
collided with the machine. The right
leg was broken, a compound frac-
ture, just above the ankle. The pa
tient was taken to DR.. Qualls' office
and his wounds taken care of with
suitable treatment.

We can understand why there
should be ban on usury and de-
mand for legislation to limit the in
terest rate for money We can UNI
derstand the principle which, while
holding down the price of farm pro-
duce, demands cheap money to move
the crop. This proposition is easy
enough to understand, but why,
when these equities are demanded,
should there be no limit at all on
the traders proft-the corporation
which multiplies and compounds it's
profits, the speculator who doubles
his fortune in single deal, or the
ordinary land shark and horse trader
who makes from fifty to one hundred
per cent on single transaction. Why
should profteering on one hand be
encouraged and the loan shark be
punished.

A Busted" City.

) When Youngstown, Ohio, elected
, George L. Oles, former peddler, to b.
: mayor last fall, there was nation
wide comment on the novelty of the
event and there was diligent search
made for the cause of the upheaval
\ The Harding administration was
blamed, the State administration was
blamed and the general unrest"
was the haven of editorial opinion.
The cause of the upheaval now is
plain. Youngstown is broke, busted,
bankrupt of the coin of the realm
and credit.
Previous administrations had run
the city into debt to such an extent
that it takes about 80 per cent of
/ the municipal taxes to meet the in
terest charges. The banks have in
formed Mayor OIes that the city's
II. o. us no longer will be honored.
The mayor called the bankers,
Chamber of Commerce officials and
the professional men of the city to-
gether and placed the situation be-
fore them. Then he outlined this
program:
Reduce the fire department to rs
men.
Reduce the police department to
rs men.
Fire the street cleaning depart
'ment in a body.
If the citizens desire more police
and fire protection, let them raise
the money and employ them, the
mayor says If they want the streets
cleaned, let them do the job them
selves, or pay out ofStheir own peck
cts for having it done
The city cannot do it, he declared
The cards are on the table.
The police chief countered that !
Youngstown would be the refuge of /
all the crooks in the nation. The
fire chief came back with the danger
of great confagration. The insur-
ance companies asserted rates would
be increased Immediately. But Mayor
Oles pointed to the taxable income
and the interest charges and the long
list of salaries that have been unpaid
for months.
In concluding, the mayor said:
At any rate the plan will wake up
the public and show the reckless
manner in which money has been
expended by previous administra-
tons. Everyone will have to pur-
chase a gun to protect his home The
situation is approaching a climax.
Youngstown has a population of
132,35S. 1t is one of the great man
cities of the State. 1t is
the location of great railway shops
and center of the steel industry.
What has happened in Ybungs-
town has happened elsewhere and is
happening in numerous other cities.
municipalities are living beyond
their incomes. When the taxpayers
wake up they revolt and then have
to pay for the extravaganza of years
that are past.
The drastic action of Youhgs-
towns mayor will not meet with
general appreciation, but it will have
served useful purpose if other cities
take warning and stop waste and ex-
travagance before they reach the
Youngstown stage.-Nashville Ten-i

Of all the unmitigated moGumen-

REAL ARABS RIDE THEIR
SPIRITED STFFDS IN THE
PLAY, "THE SHEIK'S MIFE'

The entire story OF "The Shelk's
Wife" which is being repeated at
the Lyric theater today. is told with
true artistic feeling. There is no
villain. in the hackneyed sense of
the word. The psychology of the
sheik who loves his wife with an
ancient fierceness and tries to
dominate her in true Oriental
fashion, is alphabetically set
forth. The character of tho ro-
mantle and high-spirited girl is
also slillfully etched
Many Of the scenes are spectacu-
lar in the extreme. The dashing
maneuvering of the native cavalry
Is most colorful. There are inter-
esting scenes in the luxurious in
teriors of the tent harems, views
showing the Arab administration
of justice and the heroine's rem
devouz amid the ruins of an an
cient temple. The fight between
the Spahis and the tribesmen re-
fleet incompatible action and
beauty.
