Ogden team, and from all appearances
the victory from the first sound of the
whistle Ogden has now won from Salt
Lake and nothing stands in her way for
the state championship except the uni
vcrslty freshmen, and hence tho Ogden
team is coming down strong with thor
ough determination to win al all hazards
Tho freshmen are equally anxious for a
good battle. as the team has not yet
been UP against anything that could
come close to holding it down Coach
''Tillic' Oleson has been putting the
freshmen through good, n5r0 nractlCc lOr
several weeks and now has them in such
good shape that he is sure the victory is
coming To the freshmen.
Both Games Will Be Past.
The second game will commence as
soon as the freshmen-O Ogden game is
over with the Red and Black going after
the Colorado youngsters in great fash
ion. This game, though played with

LEGISLATURES HAVE GOTTEN
BUSY IN THE MATTER.
Taxes for School Purposes Show Tina
Adequate School Accommo-
dations Are Provided.

Washington, ID. ca bulletin pre-
pared by Prof. Edward c. Elliott of
the University of Wisconsin and is
sued by the United States bureau of
education, says, with special reference
to school buildings and sites in the
South:
The most obvious evidence of the
expansion and growth of public edu-
cation is to be found in the number
of legislative measures intended IL
provide reader means and larger re-
sources for securing better and ade
quate material school accommodations.
With few exceptions, these measures
have been included under the heading
of local bonds and Indebtedness.
The omission of legislation of a spe-
cial and local character from the pres
ent classification does not permit de-
tailed presentation of the very large
number of measures enacted III the
Southern states authorizing the levy
ing of taxes or the contraction of in
debtedness by particular communities
for the purpose of building and
equipping new public schools.
In fact, though, the latter measures
are in themselves sign of the energy
and enthusiasm with which the o.uth
is attacking its education problem

CONDITION OF COTTON
MANY lOWLANDs IN THE VALLEY
CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED.
See Improvement - Reports From
Oklahoma Brilliant

Memphis, Tenn.-There was an I'm
provement in the cotton crop during
the week in Alabama and states east
ward in Texas and Oklahoma. Else
where little or nothing was gained be-
cause showers were general and kept
labor from the fields for the greater
part of the time II seems certain
that in the valley states many low
lands can never be redeemed from the
grass. In Mississippi some OF the bot
toms are still under water, which is
receding very slowly.
The great need OF the crop in the
central and eastern belts is cultiva-
ton There are q few localities that
have not suffered severely either be-
cause the lands were unusually well
drained or because rains were not ex-
cessive, but as a rule all the territory
east of Texas and Oklahoma has been
seriously damaged. For the crop TO
recover. dry weather is necessary. The
plant is late and has not set fruit as
usual at this date.
Within the past four weeks North
Carolina and Tennessee have suffered
less than other states east OF the Mis-
sissippi river. Reports from Okla
homa are brilliant and good from
Texas except in the southwest, where
rain is beginning 10 be needed. the re-
cent showers having failed TO reach
that section Of the state.

DID |. G. RAWN SHOOT SELF
President Monon Railway Killed In
His Home.

Chicago, Ill-Suicide or murder?
Which shall be the last word writ
ten in the story Of the tragic ending
that came to the life of Ira G. Rawn,
president Of the Monon railway. early
Wednesday morning in his summer
home at Winnetka? That he fell a
victim to the revolver of a house
breaker whom he had surprised fore.
ing the side door of his residence at
an early hour is the positive declara-
tion of his family and his friends.
Strength is given this view Of the
TRACED. by the fact that Winnetka has
burglars
The police are working on a theory
that Mr. Rawn killed himself AS a
basis for their suicide theory, the po-
lice advance the following reasons:
They point to the fact that Mr.
Rawn was operating vice-president OF
the Illinois Central railroad at the
time fraudulent car repair contracts
were put through. and that recently
he had been drawn into the Illinois
Central graft investigation as a chief
witness. They say that the action of
Mr.. Rawn's relatives in refusing to
aid the Chicago detective department
to search for the alleged murderer
is suspicious
They declare that there exists a
lack of convincing evidence that an
intruder had actually been in the
Rawn residence

COTTON LEADERS FIGHT
OUTCOME OF FEELING BETWEEN
BULLS AND BEARS.
Reaches Boiling Point When Hayne,
Bull Leader 10 Accused Of
Deserving His Following.

New York-There was a fist fight
between Frank b. Hayne. the New
Orleans bull cotton leader, and Lamar
l.. Fleming, in Delmonico's Wednes-
day.
The fight was the outcome OF the
feeling which for some weeks past has
existed between the bull and bear
cliques on the cotton exchange. For
two years the two factions have been
having ii out on the floor, with honors
almost entirely with the Paten-Hayne-
Brown Scales combination. but the
good feeling that usually exists on ex-
changes held out until the bears went
to the department of justice with COM
plants that the bull leaders were vfo-
lating the Sherman antitrust act.
This complaint was followed by the
indictment of Messrs. Patten. Brown
and others on charges of welching on
the part of their associates. There
have also been charges that the con-
fdences which are supposed to exist
between brokers and clients were vio-
lated by at least one of the bear
clique, and talk of what would hap
pen to one member should he decide
in the Immediate future to visit his
Southern home
The feeling between the two fac
tions has grown with the close of the
old cotton months. which ends in Au-
gust, and the secret service means Of
obtaining market information, charac-
teristic of all exchanges, has been de-
veloped to the point that both sides
now have what Is very elaborate
secret service.

Italian boy 20 years old, who was en-

An alarm was given and doctor
called, but before medical aid could
respond wild excitement prevailed in
the house by the discovery that an at
tempt had been made to wipe out the
work of the poisoner by fire. The
house was on fire in three places in the
attic, and for a time IL looked as If the
residence would be destroyed. Fire

JACKSON.
STATE BONDS GO A-BEGGiNG.
Other High Class Securities Met With
Little Demand.

. According to Gov. Noel, no definite
arrangements have been made for the
sale of any large amount of the $780,
900 of 4 per cent bonds authorized by
the 1910 session of the legislature. His
Sldvices are that the money markets
of New York and other financial cen.
tiers are unusually tight, owing to the
general demand for money which has
sent the interest rate unusually high.
The 4 per cent bonds of Philadel-
phia and other large cities are not in
demand. while New York itself has to
fix it's rate at higher scale. There
would be no trouble in selling Missis-
sippi bonds at a premium if the rate
was 1 II per cent, nor in selling them
below par at per cent rate, but the
trouble is the law does not permit a
sale below par.
The governor IS still engaged in ne
gotiations for a large sale outside of
the state, and Is receiving offers from
citizens Of the state at par value for
sums ranging from $1,000 to $4,000.
The bonds are a much more attractive
investment than a per cent loan to
4 savings bank. for the holder Of the
bonds gets a half of his interest every
six months, and the bond is nOn-taxa-
Die. while loans or deposits In banks
are taxable, taxes in some instances
amounting to over three per cent, in
Gliding municipal levies.
While loans and deposits generally
In the state escape taxes, there Is no
assurance that they may not hereaf
ter be called on. legally, for taxes, or
even back taxes. but no such contin-
gency awaits the holder of state
bonds. which are just as safe as
United States bonds, paying double
the interest, and are most desirable
investment Estate and trust funds
could be safely and proftably invested
in this way
The payable debt OF Mississippi as
shown by statistics is as small or
smaller than that Of any other state
amounting to but little over 81 ,000-
600. and every obligation of the state
since the Civil War has been met in
