DEC H, 1911. There righteous indignation ex isting in Nashville on the part of the boat riant of citizens on accunt of the fact that for the past several weeks the lawless element belonging both in town and without have prac tica'ly had free reign, to do just what thev nleased. fight curse and indulge in disgraceful conduct and in the event they heve been brought Wore the town court, their action has practically been licensed by reaa on of insignificant fines imposed by th Mavnr. These conditions are causing considerable comment, even among members of the governing body of the thwn. There is little incentive for the policeman to make arrests or try to enforce Jthe law the Mayor and town commissioners show a weakness when it comes to standing by the policeman and there ia mmnlaint cominir from him it is almost useless for arrests to be made wtrwwiallv at i risk of his life when dealing with some chronic offenders, There is onlv one way to make the town command the respect due and that is by a rigid enf ocmement of the law against violators and if the town authorities have nat the back bone to do this, they should resign The eyes of the people are upon them and Mavor Baker and his as sociates should give Nashville an aggressive administration, and by so doing leave no room for the crit icisms so freauently heard by the citizens. It now looks as though the hog Question which has been much dis cussed by private citizens, the town commissioners and the press will have a rest, unless those opposed to their remaining in the town see fit to wage an active warfare against hosB. At a meeting of the Board of Town Commisssoners this week the ordinance enacted some time ago which practically meant the do inar away with hogs pens in the town, was recinded and now the porkers can lie down in their pwis and take things easy until slaugh tering time. The Commissioners . did not wish to assume the responsi bility of driving out the hogs and if -there is any agitation of the ques tion it will be submitted to the vot ers of the town. There is no likeli . ItnriA nt rVi!a runnar rinna af anv Mtrlv date. ' . The people of Nashville may di- ' vide on question touching the town's ' interest, etc.; but they are always '. united when it comes to fighting fire. This was evidenced Saturday by the manner in which almost every man, white and black, grappled with the fire fiend in an effort to ; save property. If the people would only uuirc noil sa miiiuijr xur w water, ojro- tem and other badly needed improve ments, Nashville would soon occupy the position she so justly deserves.

It ia when by some, mischance people are deprived of the use of their local paper that llify realize the Iom they sustain. The home paper is the eyes, ears and mouth of the com munity to learn the news and disem inate it among the people. It may not always be faultless, but there ia no other medium that can take its place, and there is no other singl factor that does so much for the material and social welfare of,, the town. And in the realm of religion and morals the influence of the newspaper is almost invariably for the right. Standard Laconic. Pamars' Vatoa Stotas. The Farmers' Union started ou on its career fighting the credit and mortgage system. To help in this it urged diversified farming and bet ter methods of marketing. As a re sult the States where it has worked longest have progressed faster than others. The organization has been the means of getting the agricultur al departments of the States and the National government and the farm ers together as never before in the history of the country. The percentage of gain in the val ue of farm products for the entire country for the decade ending with 1910 was 81 per cent, and for the Farmers' Union States 108 per cent! The value of the 1910 crop of the entire country was worth 9103. 102, 000 less than that of 1909' In th Farmers' Union States it was worth $183,034,000 more! The percentage of loss in the non-Union States was 3.6 per cent and the per cent of gain in the Union States was 10 per cent! Just because some people will put Southern diversity solely to the credit of the boll weevil I'll take cotton State that the boll weevil has never reached and make some com parisons. Georgia 8 gain In crop values in eleven years has been 188 per cent Her 1910 crops other than cotton were worth nearly as much as the cotton and all others combined elev en years ago. In JKW ueorgia was surpassed in crop value production by Ohio, Minnesota, New York Kansas, Indiana. Missouri, Pennsyl vania, and Nebraska in the order named. Now she leads them all The cotton crop of 1899 was worth only $376,566,000. which is little more than the value of the Texas crop of 1910. The crop of all the cotton States for 1910 was approxi mately S810.ouu.ikjo. mis increase of values was due more to increase in price than to increase in produc tion. At the 1899 price the 1910 crop would have brought only about $450,000,000. See? The period between 1899 and 1!U0 has been one of marvelous agricul tural development in the United States. Its like has never been wit nessed in the history of the world, In that short time the value of crops has increased by 188 per cent in Georgia, 173 per cent in South' Car olina, 140 per cent in Texas, '29 per cent in North Carolina, 119 per cent in Alabama, 1J5 per cent in Arkan sas, izb per cent in r londa, 7 per cent in Mississippi, 226 per cent in Oklahoma, 72 per cent in Virginia 69 per cent in Kentucky, 47 per cent in Louisiana, and 81 per cent in Ten nessee. .. .; ' ' Why is it that the Farmers' Union States are forging ahead of hon Union States? Compare these fig- ures and then be good enough to ad mit that the Farmers' Union has not done these States any harm. Anoth er point You know the boll weevil ruined Texas"(?). Well, the pesky thing has shown the world that the South can flourish without , cotton So if the price doesn't suit, just qui raising it T. J.
