Editor News: —The fact that
your Wildwood •correspondent last
week advocated a “no fence law”]
for Dade county was a surprise to
me, as it probably was to others.
That anyone looking upon our vast
pasturage, both east and west of
Lookout valley and then as a po
litical economist favor a “no fence
law,” m itself it suggests to our
minds thoughts not complimentary
to Mr. Lea. We think Mr. L. has
made his figuies for the 974th dis
trict more to fir his absurd argu
ment than to have them comply
with the facts. According to Mr.
L’s figures stock raising in the 974.
is decidedly an unprofitable busi
ness. When a calf can be raised
up on Sand or Lookout Mountain
to e full grown steer \y:ihout, a bite
to eat winter or summer its strange
the farmers of the 974th don’t
sand their stock to the mountains
!if it costs what a three year old
steer would be worth to raise him
up to a three year old. Mr. L. takes
no notice of all the stock grazed
j upon our mountains in Dade
i through both winter and summer.
11 fwe had a “no fence law” would
not our farmers be compelled to
build enough fencing tor their own
pasturage and to keep up their own
stock? Then what would become
of the poor fellow with his few cows
and hogs who had not where to lay
his head much less land upon which
to build a fence to inclose a pastur
age. Hogs are fattened and killed
upon our mast without, a grain of
;orn What would become of the
poor man and his j oor “razor back”
nog? No, tlr. Lea, wo muse have
fences in Dade for quite a while
vet. Farj/er.
From Rising Fawn.
Mil. Editor:— Bill Simpson says
if this country is free, he can’t un
derstand why grub shouldn’t be,
but Ivloselv differs with him and
runs a garnishee, then Bill hires
vou and whexes } our fee? Yes,
Bill got mad because Mosely didn’t
take his plate for the sub-Treasury
and put everything he had in it.
Then Mosely got mad because Bill
wouldn’t pay for the little he had
put in it. So such is life and such
the termination of all association
founded on anything *se but com
mon sense and justice.
During the past ten days* we have
been blessed with' such copious
showers that, that crop of volun
teer corn down in Uncle Weslev
Blevins field looks like its going to
live, and the grassses have become
so succulent that our esteemed
neighbor, Jim the Ripper says he
can see signs of fat on his i ma
ciatcd nine year old veal. Jim’s
foresight is something wonderful
and whilst we feel that he is draw
ing on his imagination, our confi
dence in his veracity is such that
we shall expect fat beef from now
on and are destined to disappoint
ment, Jimmie you have made
your discovery too soon, entirely
too soon for the unscientific to rel
ish though they may swallow it.
Uncle Whack Forrester was in
town this week with his liberal
smile. Whack is always liberal
with anything he can “take back”
or raise at home. I’ve known him
to give those furnace darkies three
or four chickens at a time, and I’m
sure he got nothing for them. But
Whack is bothered on the chicken
question now. Says be can’t see
how we farmers can make money
by feeding a chicken sixty cents
worth of corn, then selling the
chicken for fifteen cents. Why,
that’s plain enough old fellow,
when we have fed a chicken sixtv
certs worth of corn we sell it to
keep it from eating two dollars
worth and so save one dollar and
forty cents on every chicken sold,
besides getting fifteen cents worth
of coffee for the chicken.
Mr. Yyte, the banker, has bought
a handsome Phaeton which helps
him sit off our streets to an advan
tage and now he wont have to go to
Chattanooga for a buggy ride.
Ever since Mr. Pickle took his
buggy ride last week his mind has
been wondering. He is continual
ly repeating to himself “it might
have been.’’
R. G. Dunn’s Commercial Agen
cy had a representative in town
this week, and besides what I got
from him 1 have some very nice
things I would write of some of
our enterprising business men, but
as they have thus far failed to re
cognize in a proper manner our
count)' paper I know you would not
give me space and I don’t blame
you.
I will visit the furnace next
week. U. U.
RECAPTURED.
Abe and ayman who made his es
cape with Itetherford from Cole
City last Monday, was recaptured in
| Chattanooga Wednesday and
brought hack to Cole Cit y yester
day. He was taken in a cellar
where he was cutting wood. Upon
his person was found one of the
pistols with which the convicts first
made the attempt. Way man had
stolen a good suit of clothes and
| sported a silver watch, which of
course he had mien.
He says he fi (A -n.lv one shot at
