The Cincinnati market is quoting
broom corn at $75 per ton. An expert
farmer told an Argus reporter the other
day that jany of the land in Whit
field and Murray counties would produce
from I’> to 3 tons of broom corn per acre,
and that damp bottomland was especial
ly adapted to its cultivation. It matures
at the same time that corn does. The
broom corn can be gathered and can be
put in Cincinnati from -5 to 7 weeks
earlier than the western crop thereby
bringing the top of she market. It can
be baled either in a haypress or regular
pcrew cotton press.
Farmers, think over this, send and get
some seed and try an acre or so of
broom coi'ii and less cotton next year.

RED CLAY
Alia l Is Going; on in That Lively Little
Free i ■■<• I.
Red Ci.ay, December 1„ —My Dear
Old Argus: After a quadrennial
nap I arise to great you —but not in
your habilaments of yore, but adorned
ami equipped anew and in accord and
m full line with the push and prog
ress of the d..y,and with the same old
“trenchant blade” uplifted in defense
of the right and in condemnation of
Die wrong, a faithful adjunct and
fearless exponent doing battle for the
supremacy and perpetuation of order—
system and subordination in our body
politic.
Uiiitoii, W hit Held county, jndeed
llu? south in its entirely, owes you a
debt of gratitude fora courageous and
patriotic conduct in the past, and
looks to you with encouraged hope for
the future. We are living in times
which may be truthfully said to.be
without a parallel in our history. Un
rest is at present the alarming factor
in the make-up of the country.
The tariir seems to be a hydra
healed monster, and has been the
most discussed and the least under
stood of all the problems that beset us.
u we all iavor protection, then it
transpires tiint our industries are so
diversified in their character as to ren
der it next to impossible to apply a
protection that will protect them all
alike. And to cry “free trade” creates
a squall horn the mountains to the
seas. Another trouble is that our
national and local legislation is not
altogether congenial in spirit, and
Lends to the creation of issues between
the power that is, and the power cre
ated under it. bo there our extrica
tions from the perils that beset us is
largely dependent upon a cool headed
administration of the government, the
fullest protection possible to the pro
ductive industries of the country, witli
the best possible interests of the peo
ple always in view, a president who
will dare to be president of a nation,
and not of a party, Let the nation re
joice that such a man will soon take
charge of the ship of state, and let us
hope that she will escape the breakers
on winch she has heretofore beep well
nigh stranded.
The local budget of Red Clay is not
plethoric. Not much going on in the
way of improvements.• Our farmers
are resting from their labors prepura-.
lory to a. revival next spring.
The doctors are not veiy busy and
we have no lawyers. We» will soon
have a good school opened by C. A.
Dean, who proposes to teach the
young idea how to shoot as well,as the
older idea how to behave.,
W o learn with deep sorrow of the
death of our former fellow townsman,
John ”. Igou, whose remains were
brought from Florida, and interred at
Flint Springs, Tenn., on last Sunday
it leavbs a devoted wife and several
little children.
We also have the painful intelli
gence of the death of Miss Bettie Mc-
Neely, who died at Norman's store,
Tenn., on the Hilh instant. A true
Christian and dutiful child. I’uKtce to
her ashes.
Doctor B. B. Brown has beep suf
fering from an acute attack of cold,
but is Letter now."
Candidates are becoming plentiful.
What a consolation it is to know that
,\ye have so many competent men wiio
;jre still willing to serve their country,
and from patriotic motives, too, when
it pays.

of thoNe present. Every father, and
every young man and boy took a sol
emn pledge not to till a drunkard’s
grave. And every mother an<| ( young
lady and girl pledged themselves to
do all in their power to discountenance
drinking on the pan of their hus
bands, sons and brothers. When the
congregation was dismissed they re
fused to go home. And quite a while
was spent in songs, talking and hand
shaking. I'hjs was indeed and in
truth a “union meeting.” The good
influences will he gathered up after
many days.

Christmas day and administer the
Lord’s supper, thus celebrating the
birth and death of the Lord Jesqs in

eloquent and impressive manner in
the presence of a large number of rel
atives and friends. The bride was at
tired in a beautiful suit of tan,
trimmed in fur. Miss Jordan was
quite popular, and has been one of Lhe
reigning society belles of Tunnel Hill.
Dr. Jordan is well known through
out the county, and stands highjn iiis
