We have been reading week after

Local Option in Fulton.

The Gazette believes Fulton would
be a better town 10 every way with
out saloons. This newspaper believes
the city aid county officials would try
to enforce the law, and is confident
that II they made the effort they could
enforce IL.
Tho question involved is moral. AS
we e it, its financial aspects are Of
negligible importance. SO far az
revenue matters are concerned, We
know Fulton got along pretty well
during saloonless years, and we have
no doubt that what was done ther
can be done again.
The argument that the town will b.
filed with bootleggers is not con.
vincing. It sounds almost as il Il
were a boast or threat that the liquor
interests cannot be made to obey thu
law. Besides, if we vote dry we shift
responsibility for the traffic from our
selves and check it up to the city
county and state authorities.
Being for temperance, The Gazett'
expects to be temperate throughou
the campaign that will close on Jan
uary rs. 1t does not expect every
tody to agree with it and it accord
to others the same right of opinion
that it exercises for itself. The Ga
zette is going to try to keep in goo
temper during the campaign, and
hopes everyone else will pursue tn
same course. When election da,
comes every voter in Fulton ought +
record his convictions in his ballot
and when the election is over ever,
person in town ought to be ready t
abide by the result and be ready to d
his part toward enforcing the law i
local option is adopted.-Fulton Ga

DOCTOR COOK IN zAMBoANGA.

As probably will be remembered,
Doctor Cook started originally for the

the ascent Of Mount Everest or one
Of the higher peaks, but upon arrival
in Calcutta his party fell under the
suspicious of the British authorities
there, the latter refusing to grant
permission to enter the interior.

CREDIT BUREAU HAS
DATA ON 10000 NAMES

~
A man went into a clothing store
in Columbia and after selecting a
suit asked the merchant il he could
arrange terms to pay in 60 days says
the University Missourian.
Il don't know, bat I'll find out"
the merchant said, and went to a tele-
phone. He called c. 0. Hanes, secre-
tary of the Columbia Retail Merch-
ants Association.
"What information can you give
me on John Doe?"
"He is a carpenter, now living at
600 A. street, is married, 45 years
old, and has a family Mr.. Hanes
told him Immediately. "He moved
here from Clifton, Mo, in January
works for John Jones, has moved
twice since he same here and has
owed $27 to a grocer since June /.
Last week he paid IS he owed a
butcher three months. Clifton mer-
chants said he didn't pay all his bills
when he left there.p
He Didn't Get Credit.
The merchant hung up the receiv-
err. The customer didn't get credit
on his suit.
The credit bureau of the Retail
Merchants Association has on file
complete information on the paying
ability of more than 10000 persons
who run credit accounts with Column
bia merchants.
This information is collected by the
association, and is alphabetically filed
by Mr.. Hanes, who on a moments no.
tice can give you the rating Of nearly
everyone living in Columbia trading
territory, or persons VINO have lived
fere in the last two years. The in
formation is on GOO students who run
charge accounts, about 5000 towns
people, 1000 country people and 400
who have moved away from here.
When a new man moves to towr
the Retail Merchants Association
sends him a blank asking for his
former address, references, amount
Of property owned and other informa
ton about himself. Another blank il
mailed to the references given and
the financial condition Of the man al
his former home is learned. If the
reports are favorable he is given ar
OK by the association, which assures
him of credit at any business hous
in town.
Reports Are Up to Date.
The merchants report monthly OIL
the paying in~clinations of the new
customer and this information is ais
tabulated by the association for TIL
use of any member. These MONTH,
reports of all merchant members o.
! their debtors keep the association
credit information up-to-date.
"The credit bureau has increases
in efficiency 100 per cent in the las
year." Mr.. Hanes says. "When al
! members report all accounts, the ef
~ficiency will be perfect and beating
! bill in Columbia will be an impossi
bility."
