Notice To Whom It May Concern; Notice is hereby given that ap plication will be made to the Gov ernor to pardon Boh Bramlett con victed at October Ternr of Jackson Superior Court: This November! 3rd 19ia CHARLOTTE BRAMLETT , The Tennessee national guards men have proven their ability to protect livea and property." was the statement of Lieutenant Colonel H. M. Candler last night. "In my opin- . . . ... tr T ion, it was tneir presence in jvnox- ville which proved to he the margin of safety guarding against possible outbreaks last Monday following the disorder of the day before." Col. Candler has. been left in di rect command of the GQ Tennessee guardsmen now in Knoxville, having assumed control with the depart ment of General E. Sweeney who left last night for Nashville, where he is to remain on official business until Frl4ayt Col, Candler went into some de tails explaining the development of the state national guard, and de clared that their value as an ele Rieftt to, put. down suddenly rising disorders, and to prevent outbreaks has been proved. "The Termesee sta.te; guard today is not the green and untrained y ouths which cqmposd that organ ization at one time " he said. 'It is a surprising fact to many people that of the 8QQ state, guards in Knpxvillea bi& $ercen.tageare over seas men ma.ny of whom were wounded in battle. More than half have been in mv& at various times, and of. those who were not in service during the war, practically all were too young at that time. nThe guard, I believe, is going to become one of the principal factors in preserving oroier n the future, as well as developing the youngt men of the state.. It usually can be mo bilized quietly, they a?e well train ed and their nerve is vouched for by what the. "green national guards man" did when he was taken to France. The State guardsman did not admit a superior in any line of battle in th great war, ',; I am esneclally, nroud that prac tically every on of the 800 men here are East Tennesseans," Knox- vUleTribuae will also have good barns with run ning water in each stalL : The hall ways and upstairs win Delighted by -means of electticity.

" Each fanner will own a car by, means of which he can more essily transact his business. Wagons and buggies willthen be seldom uzzd for marketing. A railroad will run from Sylva to Toxaway and many car lines will traverse the county. " Then the hills of Jackson will be more easily reached and the county will become a famous summer re Aeroplanes will then be very com mon in Jackson. They will be used for carrying the mail and also for traveling. V A CORRECTION We wish to direct attention to corrected copy of the financial state ment of the town of Sylva.
