MUNICIPAL REFORM LEADER.
(Communicated.)

College men in particular and patri-
otie citizens in general throughout the
city are on the qui vive over the an
nouneement that Mr. William Kent of
Chicago is to be heard in public before
he returns on the Korea next Friday.
He is a man of such wide interests that
he appeals to all sorts of men, especial
IN TO those who love adventure. This
feature of daring has characterized all
his activities whether with fighting
cowboys and sheep herders on the
grazing lands, that formed so pietur-
esque chapter of life in the West a
decade ago, or with grating politicians
in the fierce knock down fights of Chi
cago municipal contests. Get Mr.. Kent
to enter upon these experiences and he
is most entertaining.
1t is hoped that he win open a
chapter of what he has known in his
battle for clean politics, when he speaks
tomorrow evening. The story of what
had to be done to redeem Chicago and
how it was accomplished is what Ho-
nolulu people want to hear. 1t will
vastly strengthen the hands of those

who are ready to fight for good govern
ment here to get into touch with their
compatriots in Chicago through such
virile representative as Mr.. Kent. The
indications are that the seating capac-
itv of Central Union church will be
taxed by the number of men who in
tend to accept the invitation of the
Civic Federation to be present at its
good government rally. The women
of the College Club who are studying
the question of city charters also mean
to be on hand in a body.

LETTER TO H. w. CLEMENTS
Creeoyif1e Miss

Dear Sir: If you mould get the ex-
elusive sale of coal that would
give double heat and cost no more,
you'd jump at it, wouldn't you?
You'd control the trade for huir-
dred miles!
Devoe is like that among paints;
a short ton is as good as a long one
of any paint you can name; gallon
is worth more than two of many a
popular paint.
Suppose you have painted youi
house about once in three years ever
since it was new; you buy the same
number of gallons Devoe, have a
third of it left, and it wears six
years. Count your cost
$I.75 a gallon for paint; $50 a gal
lon for putting it on; you saved S
gallons: $2o.25 on this job. But you
save the whole job OF three years
hence: about SIS. Put 'em together:
SIoo.
Can't reckon so accurately as thar;
but you see how it goes. Paint isn't
alike any more than coal. How much
more is coal worth than Ii slate?
Yours trulv

INVESTIGATION AND
ORGANIZATION
Atlanta, Ga, March 2, 1907.

Atlanta, Ga, March 2, 1907.
The cotton growers OF the South
are urged TO adopt the policy of di-
versifed farming farming under an
intensive system for the crop year
Of 1907. On account of labor con
ditions and high prices for all kinds
of supplies the extensive culture OF
cotton at the expense OF the produce
ton of necessary food supplies on
the farm is policy which has long
since proven suicidal to the average
cotton grower A general reduction
this year of ten per cent. in the total
cotton acreage planted last year and
an increased ACREAGE of ten per cent.
in food supplies, will, to a very great
extent. solve army OF the present
perplexing problems which confront
Southern cotton growers. Every ef-
fort should be exerted by each indi-
vidual cotton grower this year to.
steer clear OF the credit system and
stablish a cash basis of trading. The
credit system IS responsible for the
enormous receipts of spot cotton
during the fall and early winter,
which always tends to depress prices.
It will be difficult to systematizc
the warehousing and financing of
spot cotton so as to regulate the
supply so as to meet the actual and
legitimate demands of consumption
SO long as the credit system honey
combs the South, as it does today

NOEL CLAIMS ONE-THIRD
VOTES IN FIRST PRIMARY

The supporters of Hon. E. F. Noel,
of Lexington, one of the candidates
for Governor, make the definite claim
that he will receive one-third of the
total number of votes cast in the first
primary, estimating the number at
1880, and that this will assure their
favorite entrance in the second pri-
mary as the leading candidate. They
point out that Mr.. Noel received one
fourth of the total number of votes
in the first primary OF 1908, and claim
that he has made wonderful gains III
all parts OF the State since that time.
1t is significant fact in connection
with the gubernatorial campaign that
all of the six candidates for the office
live west of the main line of the llli-
nois Central road, a subdivision en-
bracing but little more than one-third
of the total area of the State, yet two
thirds of the voters reside east of the
Illinois Central 1t is therefore I'M
possible for any candidate to claim
that he is especially favored by geo
graphical location. and the sextette
OF aspirants must go before the peo-
pie on their respective merits.

Scott live in counties Immediately
