Pra for a great revival at Ruffin, At the meeting- of the Reldsville Commercial and Agricultural Asso elation Tuesday night President M ly berry started a good and much needed movement -by suggesting that some thing be done in Reldsville to encour age home building and home owner hin among our citizens. This met with unanimous approval, and com mlttees were appointed with instrvc. tlons to be ready with a report at the next meeting as to the best method of putting into operation such a move ment. The association has a com mittee at work on the matter pf hav ing an alley way opened from Gilmer to" Morehead street directly to te rear of the stores and business houses in the block fronting on the West side of Scales street. R. U Watt, chairman of this committee stated that he would have something definite to repart at the next meeting.

A special from Washington to The Charlotte Observer says: Dem ocrats are getting considerable Jo out of the results or the Maine elec tion. While the Republicans sus tained a big loss over recent yeers. the Democrats made a 20 per cent Sn. That Is considered very en couraging, i, It begins to look to wise politic lans here as if the next Presidential election would be a big three-con jherod affair, with Senator LaFol- jette loading a strong third party, composed of his personal following, Jaborltes and radicals. The Maine election makes plainer the fact that the trend is away from the Republi can party as it Is now organized. , Discussing the Maine returns to night Chairman Hull, 'of the Demo cratic national committee said: ) The outstanding facts of the re turns trom Maine are: "That a Republican majority of 77.000 for Harding and 65.000 for Governor in 1920 have been reduced to 26,000 for Senator and 28.000 for Governor in 1922, or about 60 per cent. ; "That-the great slump in the to tal Republican vote shows there 1 a large element of Maine Rmbll cans who are dissatisfied with tin administration and the Congress aad stayed at home rather than vote their party; ticket. Maine's psychol ogy in this respect is not applicable to the disgruntled Republican vo ters in other sections of the coun try. Their protest will be register ed at the polls. ; "That while the Republican vote enormously decreased, the Demo cratic vote showed an increase of more than 20 per cent over 1920. , "That the Republican, majority for Congressmen were cut down from 15.000 and 20.000 in 1920 to 4,000 and 10,000 less in 1922. Lo cally the Democrats scored notable victories with big gains in the State Legislature and county offices. "If Republicans can get any en couragement from! these figures hc4r optimism Js greater than their discernment of the trend of events'. "If Democrats can bring soch rca encouraging results from the rock- ribbed stablovoting Republican State of Maine, they should feel enormously encouraged at the out look for general victory In the na tion at the Novembere'election." MAKES YANKEE SECRETARY SIT UP AND TAKE NOTICE M. T. Smith, secretary of the Reldevllle Commercial and Aoricul- -..uwi.uon, i n receipt of Touowmg letter from Fred E.

Crowds, Jamming Coaches, Often Come to Blow; Serious Accidents Frequent. . Galatz. Rumania. Some railroad trains in Rumania are so jammed that conductors are powerless to "collect fares. Hence the impression Is con veyed that one may travel for nothing, which serves only to bring larger num bers to the already overcrowded coaches. Like most other war-affected coun tries, Rumania has not enough pas senger coaches to take care of the throngs who want to travel. The Ger mans and Austrlans confiscated most of the rolling stock. Passengers today are forced toride on the roofs, bump ers, running boards, and even on the undertrucks of the coaches.

The cooperative markets of Cen tral North Carolina .will open oa Tuesday, September 19th, accordurg to announcement of Richard R. Pat terson, manager of the leaf de partment of the Tobacco Growers Cooperative Association. These As sociation markets include Hender son. Oxford, Durham. Norlboa, Ral eigh. Littleton. LouLsburg, Youngs- ville, Apex, Fuquay, Ciarthage, Aber deen, Vass, Sanford, Roxboro and Creedmore. Special arrangements are being made by the leaf and warehouse departments of the association to receive the crop in this' section where the membership Is large, and expert graders familiar with thg successful operation of the coopera tive system In South Carolina a-n I rxpwted to aid in handllns: ths Central Carolina crop. More than. 5,000,000 pounds were received oa the cooi'i-rstive floors of the Easte'a belt nd f-cuth Carolina 'this week, and deliveries are Increasing. ' The success of cooperative mar kfcting in Eastern Carolina is eti phasized by the increasing support of the banks, as shown in letters to members of the Cooperative Asso ciation similar to that sent out b the Bank of Ayden, which reads as follows:- "We desire to congratulate you as a member of the Tobacco Growers Cooperative Association upon the very successful' opening of the receiving houses. We aro v- so highly encouraged with the or derly manner Inwhich tho tobacco is received and graded that we take pride in the fact that we have supported the movement from the beginning. In keeping wih our ser vice of rendering every possible service to our friends and custom ers, we wish to advise that we have arranged to make , them loans on their participation receipts' In amounts equal to the cash advances received." - R. N. Cannon, prominent mer chant of Pitt county, Is reported, to. have'offered his customers who ara' members of the association credit to the amount -of twice the cash ad vances received upon their first de liveries, upon the security of their participation receipts, also agreeing to return them all additional cash received from, the association. With Increasing demands fromth large leaf dealers and manufactur ers, and with orders lor assocrauoiy tobacco in excess of present deliver ies, bankers and merchants are in creasing their credit facilities to members of the assolation both In South Carolina and the East. Assurances of aid to the organized growers, in addition to the millions of dollars loaned to the association are coming from Western North Carolina. W.VJ. Byerly, president of the Farmers Bank and Trusr. Company of Winston-Salem, recent ly offered the association credit, and said: "I am more than anxious t see the association succeed." Oliver J. Sands, executive mana gre of the association, this week re ports a number of ..Western North Carolina - banks whose officers ace awaiting the opening of the Western Carolina markets as an opportunity for enlarged business and service to the tobacco farmers of their sec tion. Quick response on the part of tho organized growers of Eastern Car Una ia Increased business with banks and merchants who are friendly to the association is re ported from a number of marketa and the withdrawal of business froru tljose who definitely oppose the ,or ganizatlon of the tobacco growers is becoming frequent at many points, according to recent reports. - CO-OPS HAVE A BIG RALUY AT BETHLEHEM The Bethlehem nnit of the Tobao. co Growers' Cooperative Marketing Association had a big rally land bar becue at Bethlehem school house on Tuesday.
