dividends that will naturally come
to our parish and her citizens can
not be even estimated.
We were proud to find that our
people were SO enthused over the
prospects and we hope that when
the lists are presented in the wards
that every man who has the well
fare of the parish at heart will
subscribe literally. just what he is
willing to pay to advance the
interests of the parish of Winn
and her people in all the lines of
improvement.
An impression seems to prevail
that fair is exclusively for the
benefit of the agriculturalist. This
is mistake. 1t is in the interest
of every line of business carried
on in the parish. The artisan,
the millman. the railroad man, in
fact everything that can be pro-
duced or manufactured in the par
ish would be put on exhibition
The social features are one of
the greatest benefits to be derived
from an annual fair. Meeting
people from other sections and
discussing methods, comparing
notes and results of different Sec
tions. fertilizers, feeds, grasses,
productions and civilizations will
be beneficial. The household, the
management of private and pub
lie dairies, canning and perserv-
ing, needle work, home laundry,
etc. should be prominent features
of the fair.
The scope thai a parish fair can
take is without limit and it is our
wish that the Winn Parish Fair
will include, in time, everything
that can come within that range,
and The Sentinel pledges its
columns and the humble efforts
of its editor and force to that end |
Let all of us help to make it a

PARISH FAIR.

The meeting held at the Court
House last Saturday for the pur-
pose of organizing a Parish Fair
was a success. Every ward ex-
cept ward FIVE was represented by
delegates from the meetings held
in the different wards. Every
one seemed imbued with the inn
portance of the Fair.
The organization was completed
and the amount of stock and the
value of the shares was fixed, and
a committee of one from each
ward was appointed to solicit sub
scriptions to the stock, Who, when
the amount fixed by law is sub
scribed. will meet June % to elect
fifteen directors, one from each
ward and FIVE from the parish al
large. and take such steps to
secure buildings, grounds and
exhibits as are necessary.
There is nothing that will SO
instill new life into our agriculture
which has been on the wane for
the past FIVE years, as parish
fair. We will say here that those
VINO subscribe to the stock need
not expect the stock to be a large
revenue producer. but every dol
lar so subscribed aud the revenues
arising therefron should be used

to year SO that they will have a

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
HOUSE COMMITTEE TO REPORT
SUBSTITUTE FOR GRoSvE.
NoR's MEASURE.

Washington, Jan. 16.-After fight
which lasted all day and extended to
the floor of the house, threatening to
bring about much filibustering at one
time, the house committee on mer-
chant marine and fisheries finally de-
cided at p: m. by vote of 8 to to
make favorable report on ship sub
sidy bill prepared by Representative
Littauer of New York, as substitute
for the Grosvenor bill, which has been
under consideration for many weeks.
Seven subsidized mail lines are pro-
vided for in the bill to be reported;
with an annual subvention estimated
at $3,750,O00. Two of the lines are to
be from the Atlantic coast to South
America and one from the Gulf OF
Mexico to Colon. From the Pacific
coast there are to be three lines to the
Orient and one line to the west coast

SERVICE PENSION BILL
M'CuMBER'S MEASURE PASSES
THE SENATE AFTER TWO
HOURS DEBATE.

Washington, Jan. 11.-After two
hours debate the senate passed Sen
ator McCumber's service pension bill
without division, after amending it at
Senator Carmack's instance SO as to
make it apply to survivors of the Mex
lean war as well as to those Of the
Civil war and so as to prohibit pen
sion attorneys from receiving fees for
securing pensions under the bill. The
words in the bill War of the Rebel
lion" were changed to civil war"
after some discussion as to what the
war of 81 to "a really was. Messrs.
Money, Bacon and Patterson contend
ed that it was war between the
states" while Mr.. Teller said it was
either a civil war or a rebellion and he
saw no opprobrium in the word
rebel"
The bill grants pension of $12 a
month to survivors of the Civil and
Mexican wars who have reached the
age of sixty-two; SIS to those who
have reached seventy years of age
and $40 to those who are seventy-tive
or over.
Senator McCumber estimates that if
the bill becomes a law it will increase
the pension expenditure of the coun-
try to the extent of about $6,000,0OD
while the commissioner OF
pensions thinks that the increase will
be between s1O,0O0,000 and $15,000,000
4 year.

United States minister to Norway,

means during the day by Professor H.

Professor Elliott stated that while

ON CAR SHORTAGE
PRESIDENT OF GREAT NORTHERN
ROAD WRITES TO GOVERNOR
g OF MINNESOTA.

st. Paul, Jan. 15.-James J. Hill,
president of the Great Northern, has
addressed to Governor johnson a let
ter on the subject of car shortage and
the present congested condition OF
freight traffic throughout the country.
He explains how the unprecedented
development of business and traffic
throughout the nation has outstripped
the facilities of the railways
The situation is serious at present
and threatens the business world with
paralysis. The business of the United
States is today SO congested that
from every portion of the country
arises clamor for relief. The railroads
everywhere are taxed beyond their
power. r.
He says that present conditions are
not accidental. The decline in rail-
way, building, when all other forms Of
activity have been growing rapidly, is
due to the difficulty in securing cap
ital for railway extensions. The spirit
of hostility on the part of individuals
and political parties which threatens
,confiscation and transfer to the state
has made railway :inyestments less at
tractive to. capitalists than formerly.
This feeling must be dfspeiled and
greater confidence established II any
considerable portion of the, money.
needed for railway development in
this country is to be available for the
work.
