BIG SALE IN PROGRESS
AT MAX BAER'S

With first days business that was
never exceeded in the history of the
establishment on like occasion the
big sensation sale at the Mems Shop
opened yesterday. The store had
been closed for two days to enable
the force of employees to mark down
all the goods in the house. and as the
result of the. careful advertising 1t
had received. and the reputation of
the store for doing what it advertised,
the first days sales were even a sur
prise to the proprietor.
81 have been in the clothing busi-
ness in this town for a good many
years" said Max Baer this morning,
but | never had a sale start off with
the big business Of our sensation sale
yesterday. 1t certainly shows that
the people have the money to spend
and are keen to take advantage OF
such opportunities as we are offer
ing.

With $58,555.50 in its pocket the
city of Pendleton is broke. Although
the report Of City Treasurer Lee
Moorhouse read to the council last
evening showed that sum as a balance
upon hand, the city faces the expense
of six per cent interest on warrants
drawn from henceforth until the new
tax levy is received next March be-
cause the money is not available for
use in carrying the current expenses
of the city.
1t is divided among special funds,
some of which will have little need
for the sums at their respective dis
posal. and last night the city fathers
attempted to outline a plan by which
money could be taken from the sewer
fund which has more cash than it
can spend and placed to the credit
Of the general fund of which the
banks account now appears in red
figures.
The matter was referred to the city
and at the next meeting the finance
committee will present a plan to
head off, or at least delay the day
of interest reckoning.

The Opelousas courier., 1908-01-18
August 18th, 1906, shows that the
official returns were for,
Sewerage, whites 14O
against 1873
Majority whites for z
Sewerage colored against Sc
for Is
Majority colored against 40

The reason so many whites
voted against Sewerage was that
the ordinance took in all of the
city west of the Southern Pacific
Ry., and the citizens then were
not liable to be Immediately bene-
fitted, hence they voted against it.
The question of Sewerage was
not political, but concerned the
health, happiness and the lives of
the people of this city. When
these parties raised the cry of me
having voted the proxies which
simply represented the property
and not tue woman, they should
be fair and tell what they them
selves did on a question of life and
death. There is a vast difference
in voting a proxy which repre-
sents the property and voting the
individual.
The prating of these poor I'M
%fortunates who are now out in a
combination to beat me is simply
peurile, as the people of this parish
well know that they have voted
and worked against the material
interest of the parish on nearly
every occasion politically or other
wise.
In the bringing of this into the
campaign is an insult to the splen-
did women and men who to the
utmost of their ability, aided in
the advancement and progress OF
our parish.
ID Very truly yours,
M. l.. SWORDS.
