FINAL APPEAL IS ISSUED.
Bradley Wilson Calls Growers
of Fourteen Counties to Meet
Tomorrow Afternoon.
BOURBON ALSO INCLUDED.
Campaign Chairman Sanguine as
to the Outcome of the Plan
to Cut Out Crop.
BOURBON ALSO INCLUDED.

Tie Burley Tobacco Society at its
meeting with the Burley Tobacco I'm
ion at Lexington Monday night refus-
ed to indorse the cut-out movement.
The reason assigned for the action of
the Burley Society is that the tobacco
Union has not enough of the acreage
in the hurley belt pledged TO the move
ment to warrant the support of the
LeBus faction.
In final effort to save the cut-out
Chairman Bradley Wilson Tuesday
night issued an appeal to the growers
of the fourteen counties which the
Burley Society people had said made
no showing in the cut-out pledges to
get together for final effort to save
the movement.
Chairman Wilson urges the growers
of these fourteen counties to hold
meetings Saturday at 80 O'Clock
with view to securing a sufficient
number of pledges to win over the en-
dorsement of the Buriey Tobacco So
ciety.
Chairman Wilson's letter to the
gro Ners follows:
ITO the tobacco growers Of Fayette,
BourboL, Bath, Montgomery, Clark,
Madison. Garrard. Lincoln, Boyle. An
derson. Washington. WoOdford, Scott
and Jessamine counties:
"By request of the District Board
of the Burley Tobacco Union, l desire
to notify you IF the demands made on
the Burley Tobacco Union by the EX-
ecutive Committee of the Burley To-
bacco Society.
Their refusal to endorse a cut-out
l<f La no oH
ground that we had not made enough
ed counties.
Il do not regard their demands as
| to the counties of Scott, Clark and
| reason that we have always consider
and in fact we did not make an effort
| to sign them on cut-Out pledge, as
we figured that they would swing into
line with other pool counties. You
will also notice Montgomery and Bath
| in their list. | am sure the EXecu-
| tive Committee of the Burley Tobacco
Society overlooked the wonderful
showing made in those counties on
signed pledges for the cut-out of the
1911 crop.
/ L lcci lhdt TIC COOut4CS VI
| Fayette, Madison, Garrard. Lincoln,
Boyle. Woodford and Jessamine should
make a better showing of signed pledg
es and in accord with my instructions
l hereby respectively request you t.
meet at your respective county seats
ON Saturday, February II, at 81
o'clock to take up such action and sigr
enough pledges to enable US to put i
up to the Burley Tobacco Society fo
their endorsement before it is everlast
ingly too late to save any interest il
the 1909 or 1910 holdings.
Gentlemen, l truly believe that tn,
people in the old pool counties want t,
help in this fight and will do so just a.
soon as they know the growers in the
independent counties have signed ,
reasonable number of pledges. Again
Ii urge each county to take such inter
est as to bring up your county to (;
reasonable figure or per cent at once
Kindly write or phone my Office 70

Chairman Wilson passed through
Paris yesterday enrUute to Lexington.
after a short trip through Nicholas and
Mason counties looking over the
ground and says he is very much en-
couraged from there ports concering
the interest taken by the growers in
the cut-Out movement in the counties
in which he visited.
Asked as to what the probable result
of the meetings that had been called
in fourteen of the counties composing
a portion of the BurIey belt Mr.. Will
son said: Il feel more encouraged
now than at any time during the cam
paign. and am confident we will have
enough of the acreage pledged within
the next few days to enlist the support
of the Burley Tobacco Society. We
will not invade any of the old pool
counties for pledges. and will leave
the result of the campaign of the next
few days to determine the decision of
that body. Bourbon county is holding
back and we will not push the matter
here, but when the time comes l am
looking for her to fall in line with the
rest. Pledges from independent coun-
ties are coming in rapidly and at our
meeting in Lexington on February 20,
we will most certainly make convinc-
ing showing"

AUDITORS MAY
LOSE THEIR FEES
ACTION STARTED IN WILLIAMS
COUNTY, NJ. D., HAS STATE
WIDE SIGNIFICANCE.

Williston, N. D., March 13.--The le-
gality of the retention by county au
ditors of certain fees paid into their
Office, practiced throughout the state,
will be determined in an action brought
by States Attorney H. w. Braatlein Of
Williams county against the board of
commissioners, in which an effort will
be made to secure a judicial order di-
recting the commissioners to check up
the auditors office, determining the
amount of such fees that suit may be
started. The order to show cause why
such writ of mandamus should not is
sue is returnable March IS before
Judge X. e. Leighton.
In the order it is declared that the
action is brought to compel the board
of commissioners to take such action
as the law provides in the matter of
recovering fees, it being contended that
the fees paid into the office Of the
county auditor are not accounted for
to the county, and that they are in
reality the property OF such county.
Fees received in certifying abstracts
and deeds are the ones in question,
and it Is declared they total about
81, 500.
The practice of retaining fees has
been general over the state and has
caused controversy on several occa-
sions in different counties. In the set
Element Of the case Instituted here
will depend the future procedure in
other counties.
