ago, is able to he out agaih.
Rev. B. F. Guille preached an
excellent sermon at Walnut
' Grove church Sunday.
I Our Sunday school at Walnut
Grove was small Sunday. Would
be glad to have those who have
been coming to come on reglarly,
and would be glad to have the
parents come with their children
if they can.
.Mr. Crawford of near Taliafer
ro was at preaching Sunday.
Mrs. J. C. Huie and wife ami
children visited the family of
G. A. Ragland Sunday.
Mrs. Cora Moss of Lyerly vis
ited Dr. -I. A. Smith and wife
Sunday.
We are expecting to have a
series of meetings at Walnut
Grove sometime in August. Mr.
1 Hardin of Summerville will do
tin- preaching.
The people of this community
met at the Johnson cemetery at
(hattooga ville last Saturday and
cleaned off the graves of our
dead. As there has been some
misunderstanding when we were
to do the work we have appoint
ed regular days twice a year--on
the second Saturdays in August
and May will be the regular days
for doing this work hereafter.
Farmers arc very busy here
and are using every advantage
to dean out the crops and to
harvest the oat crop. There is
still one-third of the corn crop
yet to plant. We may not get to
plant it in time to make corn but
we still have another chance at
fted withitlie land. We can plant
or sow peas and sorghum ami
make feed for our stock. A
great many are not done chopping
cotton ami the cotton is suffering
or thinning and much of it
looks very sorry for the time of
year ami grassy to beat "kizer. ”
Some of the corn that has been
planted is to replant again. So
we are having a time this year
trying to farm. But as many dis
advantages as we have had 1 be
lieve if w. can hav< fair weather
we will yet alee enough to do
us if we use judgment in making
our own hay, potatoes and all
such things as we need on the
farm. We can make our own
supplies on the farm if we will
try, but if we depend on buying
all our supplies the price will be
so high that we never van pay
it with even a fair crop of cot
ton and a fair price for it. So
let us study a little and use out
own brain and not depend on the
other fellow for too much. It
you can do without biscuit you
need not sow any wheat; if you
can feed your hogs and mules
and cows you need no corn or
liay to be in your way. In fact
jf cotton will pay you better to
raise and buy these other things
then by all means raise cotton.
But study a little ami think of
it before you make a mistake.
We need to raise that which will
actually pay us best ami improve
the land and make it better and
better every year.

CAN’T TOUCH THIS SALOON
The Tennessee prohibition law
is so worded to give it the appeal
ance of being interested primarily
for the protection of the schools,
and it prohibits the sale of liquor
within four miles of any school
house. One P. Conger, of Me-
Minville, has found a spot on
the top of the Cumberland moun
tains in Sequatchie county, where
the State prohibition law, effec
tive July 1, cannot touch him,
and he is now having a saloon
constructed there. It is eighteen
miles from McMinville, and there
is no school house within tour
miles of the place.
ft is reported that Conger has
leased all the land for four miles
around in order to prevent the
erection of a school house. len
or twelve barrels of whiskey and
i> lot of case goods are now at

BIENNIAL SESSIONS OF
LEGISLATURE PROBABLE
Atlanta. —Biennial sessions of
the legislature, after the present
one has completed its service, are
a practical certainty. It will be
impossible to inaugurate the
change until next year, as it will
have to be passed on by the peo
ple at the general election in Oc
tober, 1910. A constitutional
amendment is necessary to make
the change.
It is reported that Governor
elect Brown will urge in his in
augural message that the change
be made, as well as that the time
for holding the sessions be
changed back to the fall or win
ter months. Practically every
member of the legislature with
whom the subject has been dis
cussed lately is in favor of a
change to biennial sessions. Of
ficials at the capitol are unani
mous for the, change. The pub
lic generally is strong in its fav
or. The fact that all but six
states of the Union have adopted
either biennial or quadrennial
sessions, to the great satisfaction
of the people makes it reasona
bly sure that Georgia will soon
make the change.
It is probable also that the
length of the sessions will not lie
greatly extended. In order for
the lawmakers to get through
their work in half the time, much
useless work may be taken from
tl-elll.
At present about half of the
time of the legislature is taken
up with local bills. Ninety per
cent of the measures adopted are
of that class, affecting distinct
communities alone, and put
t! rough by tile representative or
represei.li'l ves through “cour
tesy. ; The average member
knows nothing of these measures
and usually “votes’’ for them
while spending Saturday at home
The people interested would
have much better opportunity of
having their will respected if such
laws as those chartering towns or
creating small courts were left to
the superior courts or ’ grand
juries, and the Legislature would
be T'lieved of a lot of excuse for
killing time. It s probable that
tilt’s change will be made. The
courts already have authority to
grant or amend town charters.
To have only one session would
result in a saving of about $70.-
UOO evsry two years to the tax
payers. not to mention the mass
of useless legislation which would
be avoided.

TREASURY DEFICIT.
Our riotous republican admin
istration is showing some signs
of alarm. Not that it has any •
scruples, but the money is giv-1
ing out. The total appropriations
1 of the last congress amounted to
one billion and thirty eight mil
-1 lion dollars. This breaks all rec
ords of appropriations) in the his
tory of the United States govern
ment. not even excepting * the
days of the civil war. Where are
' the treasury watch dogs we used
to hear about? Have they fallen
1 asleep, at their kennels or have
1 they been fed on dog biscuit?
The republicans have been run
-1 ning our ship of state with throt
tle pulled wide open for several
years. The recent alarm has been
occasioned by the fact that the
! deficit in the treasury already
1 occasioned amounts to one hun
-1 dred million dollars and is rapid
-1 iy increasing. The enormous tar
iff and internal revenues of hun
dreds of millions of dollars no
1 longer suffices. Additional means
must me devised of raising still
more millions to meet the de
mands of the extravagance of ar
my and navy and other depart
ments of government. There is
now talk of raising the internal
revenue system and stamping
all sorts of things used by the
people to yield more revenue for
politiftl graft and partisan plun
' der. The treasury deficit and the
increase of taxes but evidence
1 the increasing extravagance of
our system of government. Ilnn
' dreds of millions of dollars are
annually wasted —thrown away.
The navy, for example, upon
which untold millions are squan
dered is no earthly use to the
common people and the indica
' tions are that modern methods of
warfare will make battleships
practically useless as fighting ma
chines.
it seem that you can tax tile
people in the shhpe of tariff from
1 25 to 200 per cent and they pay
that and only grumble of hard
times. But just levy a direct tax
of sr.v 5 per cent and they would
get so wrought up they would
talk of revolting. How strange.

MEXIA, TEXAS
Mr. T. A. Hendrix, and my
Wayside friends: <1 see in The
I News that you have organized a
I Sunday school again at that
grand old spot where I have
spent so many pleasant hours. Lt
made my heart rejoice to know
that you were still working for
Jesus. Now I want to speak one
word of encouragement to you.
May the Lord bless you and he
will bless you if you will put
your whole soul in the Sunday
school work. Don’t let anything
keep you away. Go and take a
part and by so doing you will
one happy. It makes
your teachers rejoice and your
superintendent glad; and I will
say to the young, the best hours
that I ever spent were in Sunday
school and 1 am sure that some
are in heaven today rejoicing
over the good that they got out
of the Sunday school at Wayside
and other places, and you young
people, when you get old like
myself you will rejoice and
>e glad that you attended
the Sunday school that shaped
your life for a home in heaven.
1 have seen some go to Sunday
school and take no part in the
lessons and they never got much
good out of it, and I heard
some of the same ones say in af
ter years when it was too late,
that if they had their time to go
over they would go to Sunday
school every chance.
Now I hope that every one
from the oldest to the youngest
in reach of Wayside Sunday
school will attend and take part
Let eaeh one try to have the best
hsson and wor the most, for
we all have work to do.
I want to say to the superin
tendent and the teachers that
you will have many things to
discourage you, but don’t give
over, raise the banner high that
all around may see. for the good
that you do you may not know
now but some day you shall know
for your good work, will follow
you and your good name shall
never die.
