CHARLESTON'S ELECTION

We are not given to advising from
this distance in the matter of the
municipal government of Charleston.
but we admit a keen interest in the
primary held last week and the result
which gave Mr.. Grace a ma iority OF
fourteen votes over Mr.. HYDE. the in
cumbent. Very serious charges had
been preferred against Mr.. Grace
charges which if substantiated. il
would seem would make easy his de-
feat. Therefore. in measure, his
election as chief executive Of the CITY
by the sea will be taken as vindica-
tion, although his utterances in the
Charleston American. of which he
was then editor, during the war
caused that publication to be de-
barred from the mails. 1t appears
that a majority Of the voters of Char
lesion want Mr.. Grace for mayor. and
that being the case, we don't see
where outsiders have anything to do
with it,

will not be pleased at this procedure

use it to whatever extent is necessary
to end the border nuisance.

FARK FIELD TO BE MADE
PERMANENT AIR STATION

A special from Washington to the
Commercial Appeal under date Of
March 3 says:
Acting upon the recommendation
Of the general staff Of the army, the
war department viii make a perma-
nent aviation training station Of Park
Field, near Millington, Tenn.
Under its option the government
has the right to purchase the $50
acres of land, the rent on which is
paid up to next September. The OPP
ton is for the purchase of the land
at $4,000. The options involved are
in possession of the Memphis Cham
Der Of Commerce, through which or
ganization the government will con-
clude its deal.
AS the government has paid rent on
the field up to September, the deal
may not be closed at once, but the
actual purchase is not expected to be
long delayed. Pride is felt in the
fact that Park Field is considered
one of the most healthful Of the many
government training stations, either
for flying or military duty.

AS TO
COTTON REDUCTION

Dear Editor have been studying
the cotton and food situation. There
is movement on foot to get the
cotton farmer to cut his cotton croI
one-third and to plant TIE rest in
food and feedstuff. The question to
be solved is whether this can be
solved on concrete basis or not
The trouble with our farmers as a
whole is a lack of confidence in one
another One will take advantage
Iof the other. 1t seems to me that
las a rule the way to get big cot
ton crop is to begin to talk decrease
of acreage; then one after another
will go home and think that his
Ineighbor is going to decrease his
acreage, and he will plant more.
Then when the government report
comes out we will find ourselves in
"a bad shape, with the acreage in
creased, which the Spectator keeps
and is holding back and is hammer
ing the prices down. Why? Be-
cause he knows the farmer will not
stick Now the question naturally
arises: What would be the best plan
to make him stick? 1t seems to me
that the best way to get close to
the heart Of any man is to touch
his pocketbook. Make him put up
a forfeit that he will decrease his
acreage. Some might say that
some of our farmers will not have
the money to put up the forfeit.
That does not make the picture any
darker. If he has not got the money,
let the landlord put up for him, or
let the plantation manager do this,
and then let him draw up for the
tenant that he is to cut his acreage
one third. Make the tenant sign
contract to that effect, and see that
he carries it out.
To whom it may concern, both
banker, merchant and farmer of our
land: That we meet at each
voting precinct in each district of the
south that raises cotton, and elect
secretary and treasurer, and let them
give bond for the forfeits put up by
the several farmers and planters
that they argee to cut their acreage
one-third; and in case of failure to
cut said acreage that said party or
parties do hereby waive their for
felt that they put up, or lose same,
and the corporation or alliance here
by becomes the rightful owners of
said forfeit, which is to be equally
divided among those who have stuck
to their pledges. The beauty Of the
is that the parties who
put up the forfeit can take same down
within four months; or at any rate,
after it is too late to plant cotton.
This will allow the parties to the
contract to use the money to finish
their crops.
It seems to me that this is a
safe plan to enable the people who
have their money invested in cotton
at present, and equally as safe to the
cotton planter, and win enable him
10 get a ready sale for his crop next
fall without sacrificing his crop.
This is only a suggestion Of mine,
md if anyone feels interested in this
no matter what your vo-
.ation may be, we, as farmers, nler-
.hants and bankers, would be more

will manage the concern here, and
several of the men employed at Cam
bridge City will be brought here to
assist in the operation of the Rich
