ton. for the handling of securities,

nections to New York. Chicago, New

being seriously discussed by local
bankers. oil men and others promi-
nent in the business world.

sion just ended, boards of trade, cot
ton, grain and stock exchanges or
similar institutions may be organized

purpose Of dealing in the various COM
modities handled on the large eX-
changes of the country.
Arrangements are being made TO

clients who wish to trade in local and
/ outside securities.

Manifesto Not Read Right.

LONDON, March 1.-THE Central
News says it is informed that the
statement that Grand Duke Michael
has abdicated is incorrect
The dispatch is given considerable
prominence here, but it appears to be
based largely on a misreadng of the
grand dukes manifesto, which. as
pointed out by Russians in London
does not state that he will temporarily
accept the regency, but specifically
states that he will accept supreme
power only after elections had been
held which are unlikely ever to be
fulfilled.
The declaration made by the grand
duke on his acceptance of the throne,
as given out by the Central News
agency, follows:
This heavy responsibility has come
to me at the voluntary request of my
brother, who has transferred the i'm
perial throne to me during a period
of warfare which is accompanied
with unprecedented popular disturb
ances.
Must BE Peoples VIII.
"Moved by the thot which is in the
minds of the entire people that the
good of the country is paramount, |
have adopted the firm resolution to
accept the supreme power only If this
be the will of our great people who.
by a plebiscite, organized by their
Representatives In constituent as
sembly, shall establish n form of gov
ernment and new fundamental laws
for the Russian state.
Consequently, invoking the bene-
diction of our Lord. l urge all citizens
of Russia to submit to the provisional
government established upon the
initiative of the duma and Invested
with full plerary powers until such
time, which will follow with as little
delay as possible, as the constituent
assembly on basis OF universal, di-
rect, equal and secret suffrage, shall
by its decision as to the new form of
government express the will of the
people"

WANTS TO HAVE CVlRSCRiPTICN
Would Be Source OF Strength To
Maury County Soldiers to Learn
That Their People Are suying Gov
eminent Bonds.

Although but little progress has
been made thus far on the sale of the
second issue of Liberty Bonds in Maui
ry county, of which 100000 is the al
lotment for this county, Chairman H.
O. Fulton stated this morning that in
fact the movement is we'll on foot and
that soon the purchases of the bonds
will begin in earnest.
I'VE have assurances Of better CO.
operation this time from bankers of
all sections of the county," said Mr..
Fulton, than when the first issue was
sold" He was optimistic of the out
come and said that he could not think
for moment that a county that had
furnished so many soldiers would fail
to provide it's share of the loan to the
government with which to feed and
equip these men.
Most of us no doubt will buy these
bonds to the limit OF our means" said
Mr.. Fulton. Our example will help
and will also add to the force of our
appeal. We suggest that every work
er in this campaign include in his
purchase one $50 bond so that he can
show it to the persons whom he
solicits.
There was considerable delay in
the delivery of the definitive bonds of
the first Liberty Loan. But the en-
graved bonds of the new issue will be
ready for immediate delivery.
"On the liberty loan there can be
no two opinions. Grim terrible war
is upon us. This war will go on: and
none can stop our onward march.
IF at the end Prussian autocracy
stands fast, then, of course we have
failed. But no American could think |
of failure. So those who do not want !
our country to lose want America to |
be strong, strong enough to allow a |
generous peace not weak enough to |
enable Prussia to dictate terms of
peace.
ITO make this peace loving nation
strong, billions are now needed. Our
soldiers must eat, wear shoes, carry
guns for defense; and surely we want
extra comforts for them, too.
Every fighting man must feel that
his people at home are for him heart
and soul. That gives the fighting
strength.
1T will be a source of strength to
the Maury county men in the army to
learn that the folks back home have
oversubscribed their apportionment
Of the Liberty Bonds with which they
will be maintained in their fight for
the supremacy of Democracy
