He has given warm welcome,
many Democrats declaring TO him
that he would be the next governor,
II he would accept the nomination.
Mr.. Head has never given up his
citizenship in Tennessee. On the
contrary he has repeatedly voted in
primaries and regular elections in
Nashville since he became connected
with eastern interests.
There is. however, no sign of the
Democrats centering upon any par
ticular man for governor so far.
Everybody is waiting while looking
over the field. The pronounced pur-
pose is to select the strongest and
most available man.

Fall business is starting off in nice
shape, according to the merchants,
who are well pleased over the out
look. The cool days OF this week
have reminded the people that warm
weather will not last much longer,
and the fall exhibits of clothing are
seasonable. All of the merchants
have nice displays of fall goods. and
the customers are unusually fortu-
nate. A heavy fall trade from the
surrounding towns is anticipated
this fall.
For several weeks there has been
a slight decrease in the bank clear
lngs as compared with last years
figures. However, this is not because
business is not as good. but becausa
of the early completion of the robac-
co sales. The tobacco sales were
cleaned up at least three months
earlier than ever before this year,
and now the tobacco market is dull.
The growers are busy cutting the
weed and firing 1t. Even the earliest
deliveries will not begin until several
weeks. Some OF the buyers have
started out already securing a line
on the conditions. The tobacco mar
ket will be unusually heavy this fall.

at considerable expense of time

here. If Paducah people. and
particularly Paducah merchants,
themselves do not patronize the
fair, IL would be rash to expect
outsiders TO come. If the out
slders do come and fail to find
a crowd at the grounds. and
Paducah merchants fail to meet
them, local trade will lose the
benefit of all the work this
affair has entailed.

the necessary 40 per cent of the

The provision OF the state primary

opportunity to contest the nomina-

Thousands Of voters, chiefly

Richmond Parties Secure
About Thirty Acres...Wiil
Put in Sewers, Lights. Gas.
Water and Sidewalks

A prominent eastern firm which
has developed high class suburban
real estate in all of the southern
states, has acquired property in the
west end suburbs of Paducah lying
north from Jefferson street, and sur
veyors are now engaged in plotting
of the ground into residence lots,
which will be provided with all mod
ern convenienees, including a private
system OF sewerage.
As an encouragement to early
builders the firm will dispose of the
property, after its improvement at
reasonable figures. and if the present
plans materialize, Paducah's growth
will be rapid in that section.
Messrs. r. Y. Zachary and ~ c.
Raymond. of Richmond, Va, COM
prise the firm, which has just come
into possession of the excellent site.
In an interview with a reporter for
The Evening Sun today both spoke
very encouragingly of their plans and
unfolded several ideas in public utili-
ties TO be observed in the prepara-
ton of the ground for building pur-
poses.
The property lies upon an elevated
district. north of League park and
extending east and west to include
Thirty-second and Thirty-third
streets and AUDITING grounds. In all
1t consists of approximately 80 acres.
which will be plotted of in blocks
to correspond to those of the city.
Engineers are now laying OF the
streets and sidewalks. The improve
ments to be Installed will be water
mains. gas electric lights and sewer
age.
No estimate for the cost of the
work was made, but II was inferred
that the Improvements will run far
into the thousands with the sewerage
idea being carried out. A leading
engineer of Cincinnati will be Sc
cured TO provide plans for the sew
erage and the drainage will be es-
pecially adequate. The improvements
are to begin at once.
Their Second Visit.
This marks the second visit OF
Messrs. Zachary and Raymond. who
arrived last week. They we're at
tracted TO Padccah earlier In the
year. formulating plans for the ac-
QUESTION of the ground. In speaking
of the deal today, they said they had
been developing high class real es-
tate in the suburbs of many southern
cities in the last few years. Their
business is to improve what they con-
slider to be desirable residence prop
erty, but not to construct buildings
Both will remain here for some time
directing the work. They consider
the site one of the best outside and
near the city. as the property lies
along the Gregory Heights car lines
to TIE city. Within a few weeks they
will begin extensive advertising
throughout this section of the state
and predict a marked development in
the property.

the controversy follows.
Statements now being pub

through Central Oregon to Kla-

Indian Reservation, and is max
ing some surveys in the reserva-

be continued to Klamath Falls,

now definitely decided is that it
will probably build as far south
as Bend. leaving the question Of
