Many farmers in the Northern and

Southwestern Missouri, Arkansas,
Louisiana and Texas. Many who have
been unable to own their homes in the
older country are buying land at the
prices prevailing in the new country
So, $40, $15, per acre and up. These
lands are mostly cut-oyer timber lands,
some of them possessing a deep rich
soil producing corn, wheat, oats clover,
cotton fruits and and vegetables.
Well improved farms are scattered
throughout this country. Many places
with small clearings and some inn
provementS can be bought very cheap.

LIMITING MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS
For some time a movement has
been agitated to limit the indebt
edness of cities and towns of the
State, and the proposed amend
ment was suggested to the Legis
lature and will be submitted to the
voters to meet this end.
The act of the General Assem-
bly,, approved April 2, 1908, pro.
vides that the proposed amend
ments to the constitution enumer-
ated above are submitted to the
voters of the State, who may ap
prove and ratify or reject each of
them at the general election to be
held the first Tuesday after the
first Monday in November, 1904.
Further provisions of the act are:
"And that said election to ap-
prove and ratify, or reject, said
amendments to the State
constitution shall be held by the
same officers, at the same time and
place and in the same manner, and
under the same laws, regulations
and qualifications as to voting as
to the general election, except as

for terms of four years. This
amendment, if adopted, will cause
article 7, section 3, to read:
There shall be a Treasurer, or
Treasurers, and a Comptroller of
the Treasury, elected by the quail
fed voters of the State, who shall
hold their offices for four years"
These officials of the State are now
appointed by the vote of both
Houses of the General Assembly.

The fifth proposed amendment
provides for local road and fence,
game and stock laws. 1t is pro
posed to amend article 2, section
13, so that that section as amended
will read:
"The General Assembly shall

the protection and preservation of
game and fish within the State, for
the establishment and maintenance
of public roads, for Enclosures and
fencing of lands and lots, and for
the keeping, protecting, care and
control of domestic animals, and
such laws may be enacted for and
applied and enforced in particular
counties or geographical districts
designated by the General Assem-
bly,"
The sixth proposed amendment
provides for adding as section 1S
of article 2 the following:
'"Persons, firms and corporations
hereafter commencing to engage
IN the business of manufacturing
in any city or county in this State
may, as to property and capital in
said city or county employed and
used directly in said manufactur-
ing business, and for a period not

mencement of said business, be ex- !
wholly or partially from

vided, that no person, firm or cor
poration shall be exempted, wholly

wholly or partially, from city
taxes until an ordinance providing
for said exemption shall have been
passed by thirds vote of the
members of the city council or

,ity."

invest in manufacturing plants in
he cities and counties of Tennes-
zee. 1t will be noted that only
lew manufacturing plants, their
and capital, are to be ex.
'mpted under the amendment, and

COLORED TROOP
REACHES CANE

After a long and tiresome march,
the colored troops comprising the
second squadron OF the Ninth United
States cavalry and a mounted band OF
80 pieces arrived at Murray yester-
day from Walla walla and immedi-
ately went into temporary camp on
the low ground near the creek.
The oolored troops were at first ex-
pected to reach the encampment
grounds in time to participate in Ia
coma's Fourth of July parade, but
the difficult journey through Siam
pede pass somewhat delayed the
march. Real experiences of army
life have been encountered by the
Ninth on this march and the men
were at times forced to drag their
horses over the obstacles.
On Monday night the troops
camped at Puyallup, and the rest at
that place did much to place the
horses In better condition. Major ].
B. Erwin is in command.
Everything is now getting in readi-
ness for the great military maneu-
vers and the mimic war will soon be
in progress. Each train to Murray
carries new army officers for the en-
campnent, and the headquarters are
expected to be opened to day. Yes
terday the official roster of the man
euver division was issued from the
division headquarters.

The Brilliant summer wedding.


A July bride is planning a red,
white and blue wedding. The cold
ness of green and white floral decora-
tions does not appeal to her. She
will carry the idea of color and
brightness into the gowns of the wed
ding party and the church and house
decorations.
ner own gown Will of course be
white, and she will carry a bouquet
of white roses with chiffon and white
sweet peas. The maid of honor will
walk alone and will wear blue and
carry white roses. The maids will
be gowned alike in pale blue, match
ing the color of the maid of honor's
gown and each will carry an armful
of red roses.
The wedding will be noon we'd
ding. The maid of honor and the
maids will wear pale blue hats. The
maids hats are to be wreathed with
red roses, but upon the maid of hon
or's hat will rest wreath of white
roses.
At the church the only decoration
will be draperies of silk flags, tall
palms and one immense bouquet OF
red roses.
The tables at the house are to be
ornamented with great bouquets OF
blue bachelor buttons. Upon the
brides table will be white roses.
One great flag will be draped above
the bay where the newly-wedded
pair viii receive congratulations.
