Philadelphia, BalU Charleston, Clnolnnati, jiempnii, ' 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.
