N. 0., as aecond olass matter. GRAHAM, N. C., March 19, 1914. J. B. Duke, the genius who con ceived the formation of the Amer ican Tobacco Company, commonly known as the "Tobacco Trust", has outlined a plan ■ for a chain of cotton warehouses for the storing and the sale of cotton. The plan was outlined in Charlotte a few days ago to a meeting of leading business men and was highly ap proved. An organization will oe capitalized at 15, 000,000. If the proposition is properly safeguard ed, it will result in the elimination of wild speculation and a more Uniform and steady price for "King Cotton." Last Friday in New York the di rectors of the . United States Ex press Company voted unanimously to dissolve and liquidate its af fairs. The low parcels post rates and the lowering of rates by the Interstate Commerce Commission are given as the, reason for the ac tion. The express companies have fattened for a long time on arbi trarily high rates, and it is time the people were relieved of the extortion. "• In the freight rate decision up on the movement Initiated by the shippers of North Carolina, the In terstate Commerce Commission has decided in favor of North Caro lina, and it is stated that the re ■ult •will be a saving of ♦2,000,000 to' North Carolina. As the consum ers ultimately pay the freight, every citizen "in the State will share In the benefits.
