TENNESSEE NIGHT RIDER
CASES ARE REVERSED
Jackson, Tenn., July 3. —The
cases of the eight night riders,
six of whom were under the
death sqptence charged with the
murder of Capt. Quenten Rankin
at Walnut Log, on Reelfoot lake,
Oct. 19 last, were reversed by the
supreme court and were remand
ed for new trials.
In reversing the cases Justice
Henry A. Craft assigned two
principal reasons. The first was
that the grand jury which found
the indictments against the al
leged night riders were not se
lected in a proper manner. The
grand jury was • selected out
of a panel named by Judge J.
S. Jones, the trial judge, where
as the law provides the panel
must be chosen by at least three
members of the county court.
The second error on which the
reversal was based was that the
state did not allow the defend
ants a sufficient number of chal
lenges. The eight were tried on
a joint indictment, and the trial
court upheld the state’s con
tention that the eight defendants
were only entitled to the legal
number of challenges, twenty
four, which would apply if one
man was on trial.
When Justice Craft concluded
his opinion, a storm of applause
broke out in the courtroom, hut
was quickly stilled by Marshal
Deeming and his deputies. The
prisoners will be taken back to
Union City and an effort will
be made to secure their release
on bail, pending a second trial
of their cases.
The decision comes within less
than a year after the crime was
committed. On the night of Oct.
19, 1908, Capt. Quentin Rankin
and Col. R. Z. Taylor were ta
ken from the hotel at Walnut
Log, on the bank of Reelfoot
lake, by the night-riders. The
former was hanged and then shot
to death, and the latter escaped
by almost a miracle.
No matter how much money
a man may have he does not
like to be defrauded. If he buys
a coat he wants the cloth to be
just what the merchant says it
is; if he buys a barrel of apples
he is indignant if he discovers
that the big apples have been
put in the ends of the barrel
and small or unsound ones be
tween, and he decides not to
•leal again with the man from
whom he bought them. No man
wins permanent sueess who does
not deal fairly with his custom
ers. But let us not be honest
simply because it pays financial
ly, for there is better reason—it
pays for peace of mind afford
ed and the true welfare of the
soul.—Farm Journal.

TAX CONFERENCE
May be Called to Devise New
System of Tax Returns
Atlanta, Ga., July 3.—A strong
movement is on fobt to call a tax
conference in the Fall or Winter
to devise a new system of tax re
turns. The following resolution,
by Dr. L. G. Hardeman, of Jack
son, has been introduced in the
House and is now pending in that
body.
“Whereas, the burden of taxa
tion in the State of Georgia is
unequally distributed against the
property in the State; and
“Whereas, it is the intention
of the Constitution of the State
that the burden shall be equally
distributed against all property ;
and,
“Whereas, our present system
of taxation and all tax returns
are inadequate, confusing and
unjust; and
“Whereas, our Constitution
provides that the taxation shall
be uniform as well as ad volorem
therefore; be it, ,
“Resolved, that we request the
Governor of the State of Georgia
to call a tax conference not la
ter than December 15,' for the
purpose of considering the aclvisa
bility of revising the tax sys
tem in Georgia and providing
a plain by which we may secure
proper returns of all property of
the State so as each species will
bear its proportional burden of
the taxes of the state.
“Resolved, further, that if ths
proper returns of all species of
property of the State was justly
made, the present tax rate would
bring an abundance of revenue
to bear all the burden of taxation
now placed upon the state and not
reach the limit of the constitution.
The tax conference plani s said
to be considered with favor by
Governor Brown. Should it go
through he will probably have
the ordinaries of the various coun
ties name two or more delegates
to the conference from their re
spective counties.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness and that is ty constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an iniflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound, or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flamation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an Inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol

ed by Catarrh) that cannot be cured

WOULD ABOLISH
COUNTY TREASURER.
Atlanta, Ga.,—To eliminate
from the county expenses what
he terms a “sinecure,” C. H.
Beasley, of Lee County, has in
troduced in the House of Rep
resentatives a bill to abolish the
office of county treasurer in the
various counties of the state.
Mr. Beasley has introduced a
companion bill providing for the
establishment of county deposi
tories, to be appointed by the or
dinary or county commissioners,
and which will have charge of all
the county funds which now pass
through the hands of the county
treasurer.
County treasurers are now
paid on an average of $2,000 per
year which amr unts approximate
ly to $292,000 and acording to
Mr. Beasley, this vast sum can
be saved the state by eliminat
ing the office. Discussing his,
bills, Mr. Beasley said:
“The county treasurer’s of
fice is an office that can easily
and -often is, almost entirely at
tended to. iyitli the exception of
fees eonncctect't+’fXewith, by loea
banks, which are with
county deposits. The questiolT
then, is why not abolish the of
fice? Let the depository banks
transact the business for these de
positories, pay interest on bal
ances and cut out the fees en
tirely. Averaging great and
small counties in the state as
paying for an obsolete office an
average of $2,000 per county, we
have for the 146 counties the vast
sum of $292,000 per year that
might be saved. This would build
many miles of good roads or ed
ucate many bright minds in the
public schools.”
The bill providing for the abo
lition of the office of county
treasurer is an amendment to
the constitution and in order to
become effective it must be pass
ed by two-thirds ’vote of both
branches of the General Assem
bly and then ratified by the peo
ple at she polls.

Monster Nests.
In Australia are to be found the
largest, heaviest and most peculiar
nests in the world. These are the
nests of the jungle fowl, so called,
and are built in the form of great
mounds, the average measurement
in height being fifteen feet and the
circumference 150 feet. The nests
are erected in secluded, sheltered
spots, and, as in the case of the
small nests of birds, they are skill
fully interwoven with leaves, grass
and twigs and such other suitable
material as the fowl may be able to
procure. A similar system in the
construction of nests is followed by
the bush turkey, whose home is,
however, more comprehensive in de
sign. Its shape is pyramidal. It
has been asserted by Australian nat
uralists that the nests of the bush
turkeys, which live in colonies, are
so large that to move them requires
the services of six or seven men.—

The City of Ispahan.
No city has a happier name than
Ispahan —the “rendezvous.” When
visited by the traveler Chardin in
the early part of the eighteenth
century it contained 173 mosques.
48 colleges, 1.800 caravansaries and
273 public baths. But the Afghans,
the local vandals, who did not care
for bathing, destroyed the aque
ducts and slaughtered the bathers.
In the matter of great public
squares Ispahan ean easily outrival
any European city. The Meydan.
or great square, is a third of a mile
in length and about half that in
breadth. It was once encircled by a
canal, bordered by fine plane trees,
but these have long since vanished
along with the canal.
If the government would put a
tax on grouches’it wouldn’t need
to increase the tariff on lemons.

CHILDREN LEARN HOW TO
PREVENT CONSUMPTION
Country Loses Millions Yearly in
Wasted Education
Over 2,500.1X10 of the 17,000,-
OOi; school children enrolled in
the United States have during
the school year just c't sed, been
systematically instructed concern
ing the dangers of consumption
and the methods for its cure
and prevention, according to a
statement issued by the
National Association for the Stu
dy and Prevention of Tubercu
losis.
Besides the 2,500.000 children
thus regularly instructed in their
National Association
estimates that fully 1,000,000
have received instruction at the
various tuberculosis exhibits held
in all parts of the country or in
separate clesses and organizations
A number of investigations con
ducted in various parts of the
world show that a large percen
tage of the children in the public
schools have tuberculosis before
they are eighteen. That a larger
number of them do not die, is
due to the fact that healthy chil
dren are able to resist the attack
of consumption germs. On account
of the prevalence of the disease
among children, the National As
sociation considers their educa
tion to be of prime importance.
In Boston a special commission
which recently investigated the
subject, found that over 5,000
school children in that city alone
had positive eases of tuberculosis
In New York a recent study show
ed over 25,000 tuberculosis chil
dren in the schools. On the ba
sis of these and others investiga
tions, it is estimated by certain
authorities that there are nearly
1,000,000 school children in the
United States to-day, who will
probably die of tuberculosis be
fore they have reached the age
of eighteen. This would mean
that the public schools of the
country are paying annually
about $7,500,000 for the educa
tion of children who will die
before they reach the age of
eighteen. At least one-half of
this sickness, and possibly three
fourths of it, could be prevented
if the municipal and state gov
ernments would adopt better and
more hygienic methods of con
trolling and teaching the chil
dren, and if the public in gener
al was alive to the need for tuber
culosis prevention.
The National Association de
clares that the best way to wipe
out consumption among children
is to educate both them and their
parents so that they will know
that tuberculosis is a communica
ble disease, that it can be cured
and that it must be prevented.
