as candidate for County and Pro bate Clerk and since clever old George has been citizen of Brink lev since 1874, there are but few men in the county whom he needs an in- troduction to. /
 George has been Cotton Belt railz road and Wells Fargo Express Ag- ent at Hunter and in addition has been book keeper and chief account ant in various commercial business es in Brinkley aside from his var jed work as clerk and recorder of leading fraternity orders and has al ways proven himself most efficient and painstaking in his work. As City Clerk of the City of Brinkley, it is said of him, by one who knows, that he has the most perfect manner and method of recording and keep ing the City's records ever seen be- fore. MT. Gibson's good natured smile is always in evidence as will be noted from the photo above. Hear his claims and give him an earnest consideration.

THE approaching county elect ion will be an ideal time for candidates for County Judge and Representative to express them selves on the question of estab- lishment of permanent roads in Monroe County. Just as the ARGUS has from time to time,
 repeatedly said, there has been squandered and wasted in Mon- roe county during the past 15 years more than enough money to have built a rock road north and south. east and west thro the county and yet with it all we still have nothing but a loblolly

Among the Farmers

J. W. Gray and son C 4. Gray of the Mordic Farm near Keevil, were in Rrinkley Wednesday trading with ARGUS advertisers.
 This spell caught me without any wood" was the complaint of j.. W. Davis Monday. Poor Jim.
 ''No kick at all" said my hustling young Allendale farmer, Moorhead, who slid into Brinkley Wednesday on a sled. This snow has been a wonderful advantage to the wheat. We have 70 acres and il would have been frozen out but for the protec- ton of the winter clothes Mother Nature has given il by this snow.
 I'm wondering if the business men of this section-(and I note that the Argus always claims that the farmers are entitled to perman- ent rank as a business man)-are going to let another season go by without the establishment in Brink ley of a community warehouse?" said a wealthy citizen to me this week.
 The Argus appreciates this in quiry and appreciates the wonder ful need and opportunity for a warehouse in Brinkley. There is no reason why the entire feed Gnd grain business for the city should not have been handled by an es- tablishment of this kind for the past several years. Every Brinkley store and every store and commiss- ary in the Brinkley community could sell and deliver grain and feed out of such an establishment One handling and one profit would have saved much both in labor and mon ey.

IF there are those who doubt that the Chinese, have not advanced more wonderfully and more rapidly in every way during the past ' or 8 years, than any nation in the entire world, they have but to notice the worlds press cables telling of the obser- vance by the President of China of his 6Oth. birthday which came on Jan. 7th.. Listen-here is the cable" Owing to the exist ence of Civil war national calami- ties and death of his wife he asked that he be allowed to pass the day quietly, with neither celebration nor presents.

MANY times during the past two years have the people of Brinkley had occasion to con gratulate themselves over the wonderful transformation that was made in our city by the in duction of Judge c. F. Greenlee into the office of Mayor. But the latest occasion was the assist ance Mayor Greenlee rendered this week when he confiscated a car load of coal being shipped thru this city, thereby relieving the serious condition confronting our people. It takes just such 8 strong, capable and fearless man who knows the law. to serve in this office and DO THINGS, on such occasions as this. During these trying times every citizen who regards the safety and well fare of our city must realize this.
