Webster City Freeman-Trbune:
Every editor of a weekly newspaper
in Iowa will agree with the state
ment Of the Clinton Herald that
there are dozens Of weeklies In Iowa
with better editorial pages than the
Chicago newspapers afford" This
fact has long been known to many
Iowa editors, but they have been too
modest to mention 1t heretofore.
Now, however, that the Clinton paper
has broken the ice, It is likely that
dozens Of weekly editors will be
ready to confess to the superiority Of

commissioners, if they see fit to is
sue other warrants payable out OF
the same fund as the re-issued war
rants: and there is no certainty, of
course, as to the amount of taxes
which future legislatures will author
ize to be levied by counties. Our
conclusion, therefore, is that under
the special act and the general tax
ing act of 1915, the board of county
commissioners of Marion county has
no power to pledge the taxes of the
county to be raised in future years
after 1916 to the payment of the re-
issued warrants"
The above views are in accordance
with those expressed by the letter of
Messrs. Hooker & Martin to the Com
mercial Bank, dated ocala, Florida,
October 16, 1915, as follows:
In this connection, we will say
that the legislature of Florida, uni.
formly at each session, provides for
the levy of taxes for the next sue
ceeding two years, and no more. No
taxes, according to the constitution,
can be levied, except in pursuance of
law, which, law, so far as the present
question is concerned, is found in
chapter gal, acts of the legislature
of 1915, and the special act of the leg
islature authorizing the reissue of
county warrants. We are of the opin-
ion that the board of county commits.
sioners cannot at the present time
levy a tax to be collected in future
years until these warrants are retir.
ed, but this levy must be made eacn
year, as all other taxes are levied.
Therefore, it appears to us that in
view of these conclusions, that there
is nothing left for the county to dc
but issue bonds, and we suggest that
you proceed in this way, in which
event, we shall be much pleased to
negotiate further in regard to the
raising of moneys for the county. In
else every influence, which we can
towards the carrying of bonds, as We
believe it is, in fact, the better plan
not only from a standpoint of safety
to the investor, but in the interest OF
the county itself from a financial
standpoint, and we believe that ths
tax payers of Marion county will
readily see the necessity of such
measure, and will gladly lend theii
assistance in funding the indebted
ness of the county and assisting the
public improvements in this way.
AS this necessarily closes the trans
action, please return us our certified
check for $4,000, and oblige,
Very truly yours,
D. w. Tompkins, Vice President.
d. C. Stiles Jr., Cashier.

melPs speech was very eagerly listen
ed to, and throughout he showed that
he was wide awake to the doings of
the state and also to the needs of it's
people, especially the tillers of the
soil, whom he recognized as the great
est factor in our future development.
THE EXHIBITS
The agricultural exhibit is larger
and more varied than has ever been
shown in our county fair.
The first exhibit to the right of the
entrance is most comprehensive one,
and probably the largest single col
lection in the building. 1t is from the
auckland Farm, in the Oklawaha val
ley, just east of Gambler. The exhib-
it contains giant millet in the stalk
and hulled, forage corn and shelled
corn, rice straw and seed, fall pota-
toes Made in Marion County with
Iout Fertilizer" Honduras rice in the
stalk and shelled, large stalks of
dasheen and great quantities of roots.
A large stand decorates the center of
the exhibit and is covered with large
photographs of the farm and it's pro-
ducts.
All through this building may be
found individual and collective exhib-
it's of baled peavine, ragweed, natal
grass, crab grass, beggar weed, red
top, rice straw, velvet bean, alfalfa
and mixed and other kinds of hay,
squash, pumpkins, sorghum and rib
bon cane and broom corn.
Great quantities of seed products
are in evidence, some in glass jars
and others in large receptacles; among
them are jamaica rice, millet, field
peas, velvet beans, pole beans, but
ter beans, chufas, peanuts, rye, etc.
Sweet potatoes, cane and cane syr-
up, some of the county's most staple
products are on hand in abundance,
as well as cassava, okra, turnips,
rhutabagers and other garden sass
! items.
Several grist mills have displays OF
their products in this building, and the
wonder is that anything in this line
is ever imported in the county, when
such can be produced right here al
home.

GREEKS WON'T AID GERMANS
It is now believed that the allied
forces which may take refuge on
Greek territory are hardly likely to be
subjected to attack from the rear.
The most significant Indication at
present of the attitude of Greece is
contained in remarks made by Greek
Minister of Justice Rhallis. RhaIlis
is quoted in press dispatch as hav-
ing complained bitterly of the Allies
methods. He argued that their tard-
mess in bringing effective support
for the Serbians made Greek partici-
patton impossible. He declares, how
ever, that the Greeks are determined
to maintain their neutrality and the
Allies need have no reason for fear
OF danger If forced across the Greek
border.
