such an extensive advertising cam paign. the fact that Montgomery had raised $1O,OO0 for advertising purposes was referred to. There is no doubt but that Montgomery's quick response to the suggestion to raise $io,0o0 had much to do with the unanimity with which Columbus bushes men rallied in support of the $5,00o advertising cam paign suggested by the Columbus Pow CT Company. In the talks on the sub ject Montgomery's inspiring example was referred to.
 The board of trade committees who are to raise the $1.500 pledged by that organization will hold their first meet ing tomorrow afternoon. when the de- tails of the canvass will be mapped out.

best county educational officers. Mir Compton made constant efforts to have an election of local school taxation as authorized by the Constitutional Con- vention, ordered in Marengo County but he met with but scarce encourage ment from the members of the Board of County Commissioners. He stuck to his purpose, however. and was finally told by the Commissioners that they would order an election at the same time as the general county election. so that no extra expense would be in- cured.
 The superintendent knew that this would prove fatal to his purpose. He asked the Commissioners If expense was all that stood in the way. They assured him that this was the only objection to ordering the elec- tion.
 Then order it in some other date he said. and I will pay the expenses myself
 The Commissioners had been caught and they ordered the election. The people of Marengo liked Compton nerve and the movement which ne headed swept the county.

FARMERS WANT THE WAREHOUSE
One Should Be Built in Newark or Part of the Cotton Trade
 May Go Elsewhere
To The Newark Journal:

To The Newark Journal:
 1 wish to call the attention of the citizens and business men who are interested in the upbuilding of our town to the importance of building warehouse for the stor- age of cotton. As you all know the warehouse question has been agitated throughout the South for quite awhile, and is still being agi- tated by the Farmers Union and Southern Cotton Association. And it's settled fact that they will be built in some of our neigh boring towns, and why not here { Are we going to lie still and see the other towns absorb the cotton market of this section without an effort on our part to hold itl Of course the warehouse towns can and will offer better inducements, and it's perfectly natural for peo- pie to market their cotton and oth- CT produce where they can get the best price. Therefore l think it necessary that we should build a small warehouse, say one that would hold ,500 or 2,000 bales of cotton at cost not to exceed S2, 800 or S3, 900. believe it could be built on the cooperative plan. If not, just any way to get ware house.
 Now, Mr. Editor, l am a com- mon farmer and may be mistaken in my ideas in regard to this mat ter. Whether 1 am or not 1 would like to hear from some of our bus mess men on this subject.
