There has been a ball in Trenton and the reporter writes up Editor Bock. of State-of-DadeNews, as “cutting he fig ure eight to perfection.” ' v hat wi 1 the deacons of Brother Brock’s church say to that?—Evening News. Our church approves of dancing and that sort ot things and tin higher we kick the belter it pleases the devil. While vve do not approve of the method by which a project for an exhibit to the World’s Fair, from the Chattanooga mineral district was changed into a Tri-State ex hibit, if the unrepresented territory to the convention acquiesces our feeble efforts shall be devoted to the enterprise. Believing that sociability results in mutual benefit to two great minds, we called upon Bro, Shaver of the Evening News, last Wednes- day and found that worthy gentle man with a box of cigarettes on his table, puffing away in a vain attempt to reduce his surplus in tsllcct, Its a little unusual to hear ot the Cole City officials ordering pursuit of an employee out of stripes, but we understand a certain locomo tive engineer of the Dade Coal Cos., was caught and brought back from Shellmound where he was about to take the train for Chattanooga 0:1 a little recreation tour. Coal City people will understand that this is no reflection upon anyone. Mr. Editor: —In your last issue we noticed an article in reference to an imaginary assault on Jim O’Neals head by a rat with the idea that he was to enjoy a feast on a nice yellow pumpkin. Lucky he did not attack the author of that item if he had the consequence * would have been death to the rat from eating a dead-beet. Yankee'Doodle. Yes if the attack had been made on the authors head the rat would have been foundered on brains in stead of pumpkin seed. Ed. We want a live correspondent in verv precinct in the county and will appreciate any communica tion at any time : however we re serve the right to reject, correct or cull any communication sent us. Of course we could not give a col umn or two to any one correspon dent and we request that some re card be had to our limited space. When we see lit to refuse a conc- Km unication a space in our columns for cut out a portion, it does not signify that the letter is without merit, but that it does not meet with our approval which of course is not sufficient to stigmatize the writings of anyone. Our reference last week to the firm of Rising Fawn merchants was occasioned by the receipt of a card from the postoffice stating that said merchants had refused to take our paper out of the offie . The gentlemen have since paid their dollar like the good citizens they are and have our unbounded confidence in their public sphited ness and in their intention !o do the light thing when it comes to the support of a home enterprise. Both say thev expected to taka the News if they had to kick us all over the county. All right boys pay up, then kick Uf as much you please, we be lieve in a fellow having whatever he has paid for. The World’s Fair Convention which met in Chattanooga Wed nesday revolutionizes the whole theory as to what powers delegates to a convention may assume to bind a people not represented. Of course as to the territory not rep resented the acts of tne -convention count far nothing more than a bare suggestion which may or may not be ratified. The convention was composed of del- gates from the “Chattanooga mineral district ’ and have the-same power to act toi the whole of the United States and Mouth America as it had to assume to act for the whole of Tennessee Alabama and Georgia. /■ We trust the hodv of the Alii auoemen of Dade will not concur hi the bee sting opinicffi expressed in our letter from Ascalon. While we are debarred of a membership in the order and while we make no pretention to editing an Alliance organ, we believe the good and true element of the order will endorse tin* sentiments expressed in our columns. At heart we are a firm believer in the original principles of the Alliance as set forth in its constitution ; and would work hand in hand with the order in further ing the objects first named. Many of the new and impossible schemes we condemn and shall oppose in a fearless and frank manner. We can’t shape the policy of thi. pa per to conform to the ideas ot those who would disrupt the democratic nyrtv neither have we an inclina tion lo do so. With this avowal, we are willing to submit our claim for patronage to the Alliance of Dade. Ascrdort Georgia. Dear Bennie: —Two copies of the “State of Dade News’" lie be fore me. I read them and was glad to hear from Dade and its peo ple. and to know that they have a county paper etc., but while the paper lies before me, my eye is at tracted by a poor bee crawling in the yard unable to fly. Shall 1 render it assistance? Shall 1 take it in my hand and mount it upon wings that it may independently soar to its hiye in safety? But just as lam about to render it as sistance it discloses to an Alliance eye a suspicious looking weapon protruding from its nether end, and I’ll just let it alone and its life is short any way. Yours tiuly, W. A. Chambers. Yes, It: would be just like one of vour cowardly critical nature to let the poor bee grovel in the dust and gloat over its misery, but fortu nately it is not altogether depend ent upon your patronizing assist ance to “raise it from the dust,” and unless it is so far gone that your tender care could avail it naught it may yet be enabled by a nobler power than yours to soar far above you and if it chooses, give you a touch of that “nether end” you so much dread, just to wake you up to a realization of your littleness. From Wildwood. Editor News My young friend I have been thinking for some time I would drop you a few thoughts but ha v. been so busy breaking up clods and digging in the garden planting onions, peas, raddishes, tomatoes, Bans and such like, and no.v last Friday we had a fine bower, so I am equally as busy helping Bettie pick peas, grabble potatoes and casting a sheep’s eye at the bean blossoms, and the sweet potato slips have come in for tht-ir share of attention, then there is the melon patch to look after and the corn and oats. Oh my, the oats if we get any of them, they will have to stretch mighflv or we will have to skim below the surface so you see we old clod mashers have a hard time of it in this lower world. We have about mie-tialf crop of apple;? and peaches. Wheat is looking well and al most ripe. Pastures are getting dry, Oh why don’t it rain. Some of the farmers have been cutting clover, while others are waiting for it to grow a little higher. Hurrah for the Nows, we can’t well do without it. 1 have been drumming for it and think I will send up several subscribers soon. You will bo at our court the Gth iust., then you will find your dollar for my subscription. Come fellow citizens, nelp up the News by tak-' irig the paper and paying you>- dol lar promptly and then we will help to make a good county paper. Dade is a good and deserving county as any, so hoys send in your subscription and act the News. Bv the way the Alliance is booming down here since she can vote as she pleases. Knocked the bosses oft'the track and the alli ance engine is making sixty miles an hour toward the presidential chair. In we’ll show him soon [ the little fox can fool the coon. Alltanceman. The above letter wa* -.received too late for publication last week. Ed. An Accident. While Mr. W. 11. Bowman, the Manager of the Enterprise Manu facturing Company, was dressing] down a pulley at the mill last Sa f urday, the pulley bursted and half of it struck Mr. Bowman on the breast and chin, knocking him off the top of a bolting chest and pre cipitating him to the floor some twelve feet. The shafting was turning was turning at a rapid rote of speed at the time and hui Ft pulley struck the head instead u : Mr. Bowmans breast the accident would probably have been more s -nous. As it is Mr. Bow man is able to travel around on a sprained ankle with considerable soreness about his chin.
