NEW SITUATION ARISES
A new situation apparently has
arisen relative to settling the matter
of the connection with Tennessee by
a popular vote <?f the people. It has
been pointed < ut that, since the stale
engineers have recommended the Hot
House route, and the law does rot
provide for a settlement to be made
by a popular vote, in ease another
route is selected by the people, would
Mr. Stikelcather and the State Highway
Commission accept the decision
of the people? Again, the question
ha* been asked: If not. what then?

Re Article on Death
Of Mr. Waits Welch
The Editor regrets indeed that the
article last week on the death of Mr.
Waits Welch, appearing in Marble
, items, was allowed, by oversight, to
get into these columns. The letters
I bel w are self-explanatory, and apology
i- hereby made to the family ant!
friends of Mr. Wd.h.
MISS WELCH'S LETTER
: Editor The Scout:
Add'e Welch wants to correct the
item sent in by Rev. A. B. Smith
Marble correspondent in regard to the
life of her father.
My Dear father spent his life in
toil but in honesty, and never heat
his fellow man out <f one penny,
and I who spent my time in his dear
presence know that every Sunday
morning he would get his Bible and
rend n .'hnntor ??? ?*-:?
he did.
He never harmed anyone, especially
after they were dead.
He subscribed a short time before
he died a sum for a Methodist college.
He also helped build both
churches at Marble.

I Mr. Editor:

of Mr. Welch's death appearing in'

with writing said piece, which I neither
affirmed nor denied. Ir. half.,
of the author, however, please it *. n ,
say that it was not his intention t
write anything: unkind ? r reflective
of Mr. Welch: for he ent^.tains the ,
hiphe-t opinion of Mr. V. .Ich. B'.;' (
he was unhappy in the language he .
used, and in his expression:-, which .
seemingly, conveyed a harsh sent:- j
ment; which he did nut mean .-it all'
and for which he is very scrry. AndL
please let me offer hi* no- >1 pie.- andj^
deep repret to Mr. Welch'- f?mil>
and friends for his blunder: and hi 1
assurance that he would gladly re- ,
all that article if he could. For my /
self, personally; I have known Mr.
Welch since he was a youth?1884. i
And I personally know that Mr. Welch [ !
was a pood man. upright, law abid- ,
inp. and in these early days when I j,
knew him intimately he was a church
attendant and kept his little children
in school. 1 did business with Mr.
Welch fur n period of twenty years.,
up till 1U07. He was honest, prompt ,
in paying his accounts, and a custo-j^
nu ? whom I highly appreciated and
for whom I entertained the highest j .
opinion. 1 lost my business lfi 11)07-8
and fi um thut time 1 have known
Mr Welch only causally. Rut always "
lo esteem him highly as a man and I
its a citizen; I now give testimony to j ^
his high character and good standing.
Mr. Welch is gone from us. Speak
kindly of the dead. Peace be to his .

New Way to Stop j
Night Coughing j
Simple Method Brings
Quick Relief
For almost instant relief from hacking,
irritating, sleep-robbing night
coughing there is a very simple treatment
which, often with a single dose,
stops all irritation and permits sound
sleep the whole night through.
This treatment is based on the prescription
known as Dr. King's New
Discovery for Coughs. You simply take
one tcaspoonful at bed time and hold
it in the throat for 15 or 20 seconds
before swallowing it The prescription
has a double action. It not only soothes
?U...J in luuon.DUt it
quickly removes the phlegm and congestion
which are the real cause of I
night coughing. People who have not
slept well for nights are often surprised
how quickly this simple method checks ;
coughing and banishes the entire .
cough condition completely.
Dr. King's New Discovery is for (
coughs, chest colds,sore throat.hoarse- i
ness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, etc.
Fine for children as well as grownups?no
harmful drugs. Economical,
too, as the dose is only one teaspoonfuL
At all good druggists. Ask for
