COTTON WAREHOUSE.
The Farmers’Union has start-
ed a movement to build u cot-
ton warehouse in Eastland
County. We understand Gor-
man has taken opportunity hy
the forelock and is already mak-
ing an effort to secure the ware-
house. They are being built at
on£ or more points in every
county in Texas. Abilene and
Browmvood, being wise, have
made themselves safe on cotton
receipts by aiding in the con-
struction of warehouses. These
towns saw they were coming
and took no chances. So it
should he with Cisco. She
should be up and doing. The
Round-up is assured that the
farmers prefer Cisco as the log-
ical point because of its rail-
ways and importance as a mar-
ket, but Cisco seems uncon-,, . .. . „

ed its hiding place.
When the, Round-up man
heard Judge Brooks speak at
Eastland we applauded every
good point that he made with
as much heartiness as did Ins
closest partisans. Nothing hide-
bound about the Round-up.
Now, Hon. Tom Campbell will
speak in this city tonight (Fri-
day) and it devolves upon every
good citizen to show him the
courtesy to come out and hear
him no matter who he is for in
the race. Let us not be narrow,
hide-bound, highly-prejudiced
partisans, hut broad-gauged
citizens of Cisco who know how-
to treat the stranger within our
gates. _
Now that the -plena* and Imr-

A trades display could be made
a most attractive feature-of the
program, and our luerehants
would find it well worth the
time and trouble. Let every
profession and business be rep-

orated floats containing displays

ate with them in the establish-
ment of a warehouse. Cisco
may not be interested now, but
this paper has the experience
of other towns to back its
judgment in saying that though
no interest may now be felt,
should the warehouse be built
elsewhere her interest will soon
rise to the “bilin”’ point, and
the effort to remedy an error of
judgment will need no urging.

The Round-up lias not yet
lost faith in the fair proposition
for Cisco. It will come around
alright eventually, but the ear-

cial growth of the Trade Center.
