WORK FAST.
Buffalo Exhibit Opens May ! and Some
Hard Work Will Be Necessary
In This State.
Assistant Manager Gushing Assured
Of Cooperation by a Number Of
Counties in the State.

W. F. Gushing returned Sunday from
a trip around the state in behalf of
the states exhibit at Buffalo and re-
ports quite gratifying success. Sew
eral OF the counties have agreed to
contribute to the exhibit in money or
other valuables of equal interest and.
the commission is now assured of a
very creditable exposition OF the states.

Among other interesting features
secured by MI. Gushing is "Old Bill"

attracted SO, much attention wherever

one of the largest specimens of his
kind and will draw every Elk thatvis-
it's the Pan-American exposition to
the North Dakota corner, the Old fel-
low having a national reputation.
The stock and dairy interests will
have, a prominent place in the state
exhibit, the coal will be exploited and
corn will be especially featured, it
being the consensus of opinion that
too much cannot be said or done to
make this product prominent, the idea
being prevalent in the east that we
cannot raise corn in this state, that
we will have, to depend entirely upon
wheat for our s%ustenance and that
general farming cannot be successfully
carried on here. To the end that this.
erroneous idea shall be eliminated it
has been suggested that a fine exhibit
of the splendid corn annuallyEraised
in all parts of the state be prepared
Samples that would do credit to any
Of the old orn states have been Sc
cured and under the supervision of
the agricultural college professors will
be gotten up in designs that will make
it a very attractive display. The pros
~fessors will also prepare a splendid
display of the grasses and grains Of
the stale and in other ways greatly
aid the commission. .Messrs. Turner
land Gushing spent Saturday at the
agricultural college and were pleased
with the interest taken in$the exhibit
by the faculty, all of whom will con
tribute from their respective depart
ments.
The exhibits will probably be as
sembled at Valley City for shipment
over the 500 line and from now on
the greatest hustle will be in@order as
the fair opens May ! and twill re:

NO DIspENsARY FOR WEBSTER
Gambler Kills the Bill Providing For
Sale Booze.

Americas neighbor, Preston, will
have to buy her liquor elsewhere as
Gov. Gambler has vetoed the bill passed
by the Legislature providing a dispen-
sary for Webster. This bill provides
that the dispensarY commissioners
named in it and their successors in
Office shall, without submitting the
question to a vote of the people, estab-
lish a dispensary, not only in the
town of Preston, the county site, but
also in ''such other place or places in
said county" as may hereafter become
incorporated. Gov. Gambler thought
that this bill opened the gates too wide
as any settlement" with 25 voters,
white and black, may, by becoming in
corporated as a town, qualify itself for
a dispenssry and upon the request of
the municipal authorities" the dis
pensary commissioners Of the county,
it may be established in utter disre-
gard OF the wishes of nine-tenths of
the people of the neighborhood.

SHOPPERS BUY HOLIDAY GOODS
Merchants Had a Better Business
Yesterday,

Yesterdays sunshine, despite the
cold, gllnted upon many bright dollars
in the Golfers of Americas merchants.
II was freezing cold every hour of the
day but this only served to spur the
shoppers to a quicker decision in max
ing selections OF presents, and
trade was fairly good though by no
means what it should have been at
Christmas time. During the entire
week the weather has been very detri-
mental to business, as evidenced by
the fact that some stocks seem practi-
csllp unbroken as vet. There are still
three days left for the purchase of
holiday goods, and the Times Record
er trusts that every dealer may yet see
a realization of his hopes in q business
way.

STILL HOLDING TO HIS COTTON.
Sumter Farmer Who Hopes For Better
Prices.

Mr.. James NJ. Summerford is one of
the many successful farmers here in
Sumter who holds his cotton and sells
it when the price suits him and not the
supply dealer, and does this largely by
raising his own supplies. Mr.. Sum
merford came to Americas yesterday
and sold forty bales of cotton, nearly
all of which was of last seasons crop.
He held on to it because he did not
need the money. Mr.. Summerford has
on hand still more than a hundred
bales of cotton of the present crop,
and will probably hold this until spring
when prices, perhaps, will be higher
Mr.. Summerford lives at home and net
in the West, as do some of our farmers,
and to this is due much of his success
as farmer.

ACCOUNTS IN LAWYERS HANDS.
Pressure Brought On Those Who Will
Not Paw.

There are, in and near Americus, a
number of well-to-do people whom the
Times Recorder has INDUCED for
months upon their promise to settle
their subscription bills at Christmas.
Some of these-a few-have kept their
promise, but a majority of them have
not. Il Is evident that stronger pres
sure than moral suasion be brought to
bear upon this class. On January LIST,
these accounts will be placed in the
hand of an attorney for collection. If
you are in this class your account
goes into the batch, as there will not
be single exception made. Business
and friendship can't be mingled at the
expense Of business.
