' Between August 23 and September
8, western North Carolina received
some ' excellent advertising through
horticultural and agricultural exhibits
shown by the Southern railway in the
National Canadian exhibition at Tor
onto, according to Col, T. Gilbert
Wood, the local agent of the land and
industrial department of the road
who was one of the three men in
charge of the exhibit:. Col. Wood re
turned from Canada last night and
his story of the part played at the
exhibition by this section Is an inter
estlng one.
The exhibit of the Southern was an
agricultural and horticultural one rep
resenting the products of the states
along its lines in the southeast. West
em North Carolina, was represente
by apples, grapes, grasses, grains and
forage crops, principally, and offered
one of the most unique features of the
entire exhibit, which was a display of
0 varieties of Irish potatoes grown
on one farm the Biltmore estate.
This feature attracted no little atten
tton and favorable comment from the
Canadians.
The representatives of the Southern
there, who, besides Col. Wood, were
J. Stephens of Atlanta and Charles
Davies of Jacksonville, distributed
large amount of literature about, the
southeastern section of the United
States; and Col. Wood paid some very
particular attention, to western North
Carolina. Two pieces of literature
which he distributed dealt with this
nectlon exclusively.,- One was a small
folder dealing with the possibility
for grape growing in the Tryon7 sec
tion, along the "thermal", belt; and th
other was a small card bearing on one
side a photograph of Corbett Alexan
der of Swannanoa and his prize win
nlng pile .of-corn, and on the other
some live facts about the opportunities
of the section as a corn growing rn
itlon. ' '
The scope of such advertising mis
bo better understood when It Is state
that the exhibition, during the 12 days
that It was open to the public, was
visited by 1,009,000 people wno paiu
their admission. This number repre
sents about, one-tenth of the popula
tion of Canada, and a very large per
cent of them viewed the exhibit of the
Houthern and received literature about
the section.
This exhibition at Toronto in the
largest annual event of Its kind in
America. The Southern had a similar
display there last year and aa a result
many settlers were attracted to tnis
section. The exhibit this year, accord
ing to Col. Wood, was very much bet
ter and greater results -are expecieu
to accrue from It A display will
1,-robnbly. be, made again next year,
and It Is announced that the exniDition
will last fof three weeks instead of
two. - , . .
The . temporary restraining
which was entered Bome time ago in I October-November
the case of W. N. Cooper, on hehallf I November-December
1 of himself and other citizens of Chero-1 December-January
! kefl Cmintv: V t ha rtnnrn f .m. ..... I Innnam.rnV,.,,nrn
commissioners ot that county has been I February-March
vacated and the pllaintlfl has appealed
to the Supreme court of North Caro
lina. The case is one in which the
plaintiff is attempting to stop the sale
bonds in the sum of $76,000.
which amount Is Intended for the
Hlawassee Vallley ralllway.
j.ne compiaini on wnicn the case
was begun alleged' that bonds v had
been authorized for this company In
excess of the amount of capital stock
authorized in its charter; and further
that the election for the bonds in
Cherokee was called and held illegally
The hearing before the Sunreme
court promises to bring out some
very interesting points of law.
Thecase, in fact,wiil be a leading
one to test the election laws of the
state. (Attorneys for the plaintiff
wil attempt to show that not only
was the special election for the bonds
illegal, but that the regular election
held in 1912 was ilega. As to the
special election, it will be pointed out
that it was called by the county board
of elelctlons that was appointed for
the 1912 election, and that the
judges and registrars who officiated
at the 1912 election attempted to hold
the special election. The contention
of law will be that the terms of of
fice of these men -expired after the
912 election; and that for a special
election they would have to be reap
pointed, or new men appointed.
It will be further contended by the
plaintiff before the Supreme court
that three men were appointed to
serve as the county board "of elec
tion in 1912, and that onljr two of
them qualified. The validity of the
regular election ' will, therefore,; be
contested as well as that of the spe
cial election, when it was decided to
issue the bonds.
-Although the order, which restrain
ed the comhiissloners from selling:
the bonds, has been vacated, there is
little probability that the bonds will
be sold before the "opinion of the
Supreme court is handed down in the
case. The commissioners may adver
tise them for sale, but it la doubtful
they could find buyers with the
case in its present status.
The decision of the court will be
one of great interest to the legal pro
fession, " since it will bring Up
point about the general election laws
of the state that hag never before been
passed upon by the courts.
