The exporting, how Der, is done by large growers--men ho have plantations which cover hun- keds of acres, mostly upon the well Fained mountain sides. The plants, "trees,' as they are sometimes call. are grown at intervals of from six eight feet, and after reaching d ght of about five feet are trimmed that no strength may be wasted ia Rrpus foliage.

MandamuS Proceedings
Are Answered

SPRINFIELD, ILL, JUNE 2O.-In su-
preme court today, the Associated Press
filed answer to the petition for manda-
mus by the New York Evening Journal.
The answer touches practically the same
points as that filed yesterday to the petr-
ton of the Denver Colorado Post and
asserts that officers of corporations are
powerless to furnish service for, because
under the contract with other New York
papers unanimous consent is necessary
and the Press Publishing company which
publishes the New York World refuses to
grant the permission.
The answer recites that William b.
Hearst owns the controlling interest IN
the Star (evening publication and the
Journal (morning daily.
That the Star is a member of the As
sociated Press and as such member voted
dts eight shares of stock at the meeting
last month against the adoption Of a mo-
ton providing that the corporation should
furnish service to all persons making APP
p'ication. The answer denies that an ap-
pication was made by the Journal for
service until May II and charges that he
petition snot filed in good faith but TO
embarass the Associated Press.
Objection made that if the writ is grant
ed contracts with other newspapers win
be violated and proprietOrs be released
and the Associated Press will be liable In
damages To grant the writ, it is claimed
would be violation of section 10, article l.,
constitution Of the United States and the
fourteenth amendment Of the constitu-
ton.
The answer states that the issuing of
the writ would involve the rights of the
New YORK World, New York Evening
Post and New York Stats Zeitung, under
contracts; that they should have been
made parties to proceedings because of
this fact. The Associated Press relies up
on the failure to make these papers par
ties to the petition as a further defence
to entry of judgment

A Good Thing About Letting the People
Know It,
IL you've something to sell that re-
ally interests them, is that they'll
come and investigate. Human ature
is much the same the world over, and
IL you tell them of it curiosity and
self-interest will cause them to lnves-
tigate.
Telling Of it in your advertising is
the economical and surest way to &C
quaint the largest numb Der, for all
readers are buyers and the most intel
ligent and most profitable class of pat
rons. The great men who best succeed
are those who persistently and intelli-
gently advertise, who keep their light
trimmed and burning, who tell the
people of the values.
Telling it to the Leader passes it
along at once to the better class of
buyers-those whose patronage will
give any store prestige, whose buying
is profitable.
Horse stealing has been going on by
the wholesale along the Eastern Okla
homa line and in the Creek reserva-
tion. A week ago the farmers org an
ICED a large posse to hunt down the
thieves. They encountered the thieves
in a deep ravine in the Creek reserva-
ton, One of the thieves was wounded
but he escaped with all his company
save one, who was captured and hang
ed to the nearest tree. Twenty-Five
stolen horses were recaptured which
had been rebranded for shipping.

The Reason You Trim Your window.

Is that you wish to favorably influ
ence the passerby-that they may be
attracted by the values, and come in
and buy. If no such result was in
prospect, you would hardly risk the
the trouble and expense, for a man
only exerts himself when there is
possibility of returns.
Your advertisement is your show
window, as we'll, but more people look
into it, and larger number see the
display, and If you've something that
appeals TO them, they'll come and buy.
You get their attention at an oppor-
tune time-just " hen the mind is in a
receptive condition, and if your offer
ings are right you will get their trade.
Keep your advertisement in the
Leader, aud your show window is then
looked into by the prosperous class
those whose patronage you value,
