The following letter is being mailed
to voters of Palestine and Anderson
county by the local Trades and Labor
Council:
Palestine, Texas, Jan. 10, 1910.
Dear Sir:
Are you a good citizen? Do you
know that you live in country where
the ballot of the man who earns his
bread by the sweat of his brow is
worth just as much as the man who is
surrounded by wealth, influence and
power?
Do you know that it is your duty as
a man and citizen to participate in
the government in which you live, by
going to the polls on each election and
casting your vote for those who are
in favor of humanity and right? If
you know these things, pay your poll
tax before the 31st of January, 1910,
SO that you will be- able to assist in
electing honest and upright officials,
who will give to all classes square
deal.
The following persons, if they de-
sire to be qualified voters during the
year 1910, must secure certificate
of exemption prior to February 1,
1910, to-wit:
First. All male citizens who have
become 81 years of age since the LIST
day of January, 1910.
Second All male citizens who are
not yet 81, but who will be q before
some election in the year 1910, in
which they wish to vote.
This applies to all persons coming
within the conditions above named,
regardless of whether they live in
town or in the country. To avoid con-
fusion, understand that this rule does
not apply to persons exempt from the
payment of poll taxes for other rea-
sons than the one named.
Pay your poll tax and be man.
Fraternally submitted,
Committee.

PRICES OF MEAT
Will Go Higher, Says Member of
Swift & Company.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 12.-Harold
Swift, of Swift & Co., yesterday said:
Prices of meat are very high now,
but there is every indication they will
go still higher. This is attributed to
the high price of corn and the conse-
quent scarcity of livestock. AS long
as the scarcity continues it is well
to educate people to use the cheaper
cuts of meat These cuts are just as
good and more wholesome, If properly
cooked"
Mr.. Swift admitted that the retail
dealers are making large gross
profit on meat

men getting drunk, Mexicans prin- cipally, and finally the deputy sheriff had to be called to quiet things. And that evening an acci- dent occurred, just on account of a man working at Saginaw camp being too drunk to get out of the way of No. 3, quarter of mile west where this man Joe Valasky had gone to catch an east bound freight on the hill. No. 3 passed at II:37 p. m. and two freight trains passed east afterward; on the last one Mr.. ohnson, a sur veyor returning home from Will Hams, ran across this man lying right up alongside the track. The train had cut his hat brim in front entirely of to the crown. He was conscious still but unable to move as No. had struck him high up in back, breaking his back, which of course paralyzed his lower limbs. MT. Johnson came to Maine for help, returning with a speeder, and brought the man in just in time to put him on freight west, MT. Maynard wiring the company doctor at that point to meet the train. Dr. Melick at tended him till the I7th, then send- ing him to the county hospital at Flagstaff for further attention. This man has reIatives in Globe and Phoenix, who have been noti- fled. This is the second man who has been struck by passengers at Maine, while partially drunk, in the past ten days.
