The United States army is pro
filing by the recent panic and the
consequent lack of employ ment
for men in all parts of the country
and in all walks of, life.
Recruiting in Philadelphia, New
York. Cincinnati and Chicago has
increased over 300 per cent. in the
past three months and, ifmen with
slight physical defect were accept
ed, the army might soon be filled
to its authorized strength. The
army is now nearly 10000 men
short and recruiting officers are
culling the applicants, so that only
the best men mentally and ply sical'
ly are being enlisted. The result
will be that the United States vii
have the best body or hghtlng Hei
made up of mechanics, clerks, Ell
gipeers and other well trained ant
resoureeful men. The rate of re
cruit,ng is not felt in the smaller
country offices. 1t is estimated
that something like one half of ont
per cent. of the best fitted Of thu
unemployed in the land are enter
ing the army at the same tim"
men whose terms of enlistment ar'
expiring, are re enlisting without
the usual delav.

White LAD ARRESTED AS
VAGRANT WAS HUNTING WORK

Orleans was his home; that he had
been to New York and was now MAX
ing his way back to New Orleans with
the hope that he could get some work;
he stated that his parents were. both
dead and that he was willing to take
work wherever he could get it.
There was an evidence of sincerity
in what the boy said, and 1t appeared
that he was willing to work If he could
find it. His worst offense seems to
be that he was making his way home
by riding freights and under such cir
cumstances and with the statement
of the boy that he wanted to go on
until he could secure work, he was dis
charged.

PREACHER ARRESTS PREACHER
FOR VIOLATING GAME Law

1t is against the law to shoot tur-
key hens at any time. and II is pos
sible that the preacher and his son
didn't know this.
They are to be tried today in JUS
tice Hartfield's court at McLaurin. It
is said that the Blooms are great hunt
ers and it must be admitted that
1t would require great deal Of will
power from any sportsman to neglect
to bring down two fine turkeys when
a good opportunity offered itself.
A party Of four white men from the
Conn neighborhood will be before JUS
tice fairfield today on charge Of
violating the game law by shooting
cartridges.

HAS EN- in A FIX

The nomination of f. j. jacobson
for governor has put the democratic
party in a hole, from which it will not
be able to extricate itself for years
to come, says The st. James Plain
dealer. No candidate can be secured
who could Offset to any effective de-
gree Jacobson's great popularity with
the common people. He stands for
honest government economically adj
ministered, and for every reform which
the people demand. His record in the
legislature is that of an aggressive and
fearless fighter for the rights of the
people. In every attack upon lawless
greed and graft, and vested wrong he
led the van, and in dealing blows at
public enemies provide himself veri-
table Occur de Lion. No man, or cor
poration or interest was powerful
enough to overawe him. He may not
possess the graces and polish of a
Chesterfield or a Beau Brummel, but
he is a great and honest popular
leader, and where he leads the peo-
pie will not fear to follow.

Jacob F. jacobson, the Lac qui

of the republican voters. In d.
rect primary he would have received
easily three fourths of the republi-
can votes. The people have conf
dence in Jake. He is honest and
mpurchasable. He was never con-
trolled for minute in his life by
the interests and he refused to
bend the frequent knee that thrift
may follow fawning.' Because Of
his high political ideals Mr.. Jacob
son was not wanted as candidate
by the designing. politicians and cor
porations looking for immunity for
past offenses and opportunity for
future ACKNOWLEDGEMENT"
Mr.. jacobson is the republican can
didate for governor. What Mr.. Days,
newspaper. said of Mr.. jacobson two
years ago applies now.

FARMERS ARE WANTED.

Wanted, 5000 practical farmers, who
would like to own homes of theil
own. The government has nearly 2OO,.
900 acres of land lying under the va
riOus irrigation, projects throughout the
west for which water will be avail
able next season. The farm unit on
these projects varies in most cases
from forty to eighty acres if irrigable
land, depending upon location. In
many sections a tract of grazing land
has been included in the farm unit
wherever practicable, bringing the total
up to 100 acres.
The only charge for these farms, be-
sides the. regular land office fee for
filing, is the actual cost of getting
water to them, and payment may be
made in ten annual installments,
without interest.
These irrigation projects are scat,
tered over the entire arid region, from
Canada to the Mexican line. In con
sequence, every variety of crop grown
in the temperate zone can be raised
under them. If you would like
fruit or dairy farm, garden for
market truck, tract for diversified
hog or poultry raising, just

States reclamation service, Washing
