OUR ANNIVERSARY OFFER.

In celebrating the seventh birthday
of The TRIBUNE we propose to make a
special offer to our subscribers; one
which will appeal to every subscriber
in person, and to which everyone may
take advantage.
Our proposition is not a gambling
game, in which all lose except one, and
that one often times selected before
the contest is begun, but a straight
business proposition, in which no for
eign business concern reaps the major
part of the total receipts.
During the past two years, in which
pineapple harvest has not been satis-
factory, THE TRIBUNE has made no
special effort to secure the payment Of
subscription in advance. We now pro-
pose to offer an extra inducement to
secure subscriptions paid up for the
next two years in advance, and to get
all subscribers who are in arrears to
pay up and have their dates set in ad-
vance.
! To every subscriber who will remit
SO on subscription We will send them
for one year the National Democratic

OUR BIRTHDAY

With this issue THE TRIBUNE enters
most hopefully upon the seventh yeal
of its existence, with full confidence
that it will be a most prosperous year
to every business and citizen of st.
Lucie county, for an era of development
is opening in all parts of the county
that argues well for the future OF this
fovored section.
To build up the county by inducing
settlers to come and investigate our
vast resources, has been the aim OF
THE TRIBUNE since its first issue; and
it shall ever be so. No county in the
State offers so much to the rich and
poor alike as does St. Lucie, and no
ag ency has been more persistent IN
bringing the man and the opportunity
together than The TRIBUNE. But we
are still far from satisfied. The field
widens and opportunities multiply,
and the development for which we have
striven so long, seem only in the near
future to be realization.
Practically every home in st. Luce
county receives weekly visits from The
TRIBUNE, as we'll as large numbers in
Palm Beach, Dade and Brevard counties
as well as in various sections of Flor
ida and many States of the union.
Truly can it be said that there is no
other newspaper published in any city
and county the size of Fort Pierce and
st. Luce that can show anywhere
near as large a circulation as is en-
joyed by The TRIBUNE.
This condition has been brought
about by steadfast adherence to the
best interests of the people of this
county. This paper has always cham
pioned every interest for the good of
our citizens, and feels pardonable
pride in the fact that every issue that
has been supported by it, when put to
the test of popular approval, has been
overwhelmingly adopted.
Along these lines we propose to con-
tinue to serve the people of st. Lucie
county, but it shall not be our purpose
to condemn or criticise any interest,
whether friendly or unfricndly to us,
for imaginary wrongs. Our Iabors shall
be for the interests of this section,
politically, morally and industrially.
On this occasion We desire to return
thanks to the many correspondents OF
this paper for their valuable assistance
in the making of newspaper that has
met the popular approval, also to our
advertisers and subscribers and patrons
Of our job department, for without
these no newspaper could be success.
We are grateful to our friends who
have stood by us in the past, and trust
to merit continuation of the patron
are of the people for whom we have
laboled the past six years; promising
to continue those policies of the paper
that have marked it as true champion
of their interests during the six years

FORT PIERCE DEFEATS
WEST PALM BEACH

Last Thursday afternoon the local
team handed the West Palm Beach
aggregation their first defeat of the
season, presenting them with a goose
egg. When the locals journeyed to
West Palm Beach on the Fourth, where
they were defeated by the score of AZ,
they did something that no other team
hat done, that of scoring on their vic
tors. Miami was shut out twice by
Palm Beach, as well as other equally
strong teams, so the performance on
the local diamond Thursday can be con-
sidered first class.
Following is the official score, and the

LARD MUST BE LABELED

labeled, says member of the State De.
partment of Health. Fora retail dealers
have been notified that on and after that
date all tins, trays, pals; tierces, papers
or other containers of lard, lard compounds
or lard substitutes must be marked as to
clearly indicate the Ingredients from
which made. The names of the iDgred.
tents ofa mixture, sold as a compound,
must all be printed the same size of type.
Such terms as Second Quality of lard" :"
"Cheap Lard" etc.. must not be nsed if

ture Of lard with other fats than hog fat.
This regulation does not mean merely the
labelling of the tubs and cans in which the
lard is contained at the retailers, but la
bells or stamps must be put on every pack
age containing lard or lard compounds
taken from the store.
Pure lard made from sweet, clean hog
fat, to which not to exceed s per cent.
of pure, sweat lard stearin has been add

contains more than 5per cent. of added

constituents of the mixture, and in all
cases the proportion of lard shall be equal
to or greater than that of the other COM

Do We Practice Economy?

This thought has been suggested in
more ways than one. It used to be that
almost every man with family living in
small towns, had a garden, in which was
grown potatoes, cabbage, corn, beans, and
a general variety of vegetables. The work
of cultivating the garden was done at odd
times and did not interfere With the daily
occupation of the head Of the home. Pro-
ducts of the garden cut down living ex.
penses very materially, and much that
the garden produced was gathered and
preserved for winter use. This is no
longer true, with possibly few exceptions.
Instead, if we want vegetables We go to the
market places and buy them. Every
cent of money spent in this way increases
the cost of living and is against old-fash-
ioned but wise economy.
Then comes another important item in.
moderate circumstsnces-bread common.
ly called the staff of life. Do we bake as
much bread as We buy? Did you ever
consider the difference in cost of buying
-four and baking bread at your home and
buying bread2 It is estimated that for
about 800 fair-sized Ioaves of bread
can be baked from a barrel OF -four. Good
-four can be bought for Sc 80 per barrel.
Three hundred loaves of bread purchased
in the market costs $500. It does not
take close figuring to see how much we
spend that We could save in buying -four
and making our own bread. We are con.
suming but not producing along certain
lines, and this is especially so in the
household.
We are neglecting the garden and are
paying pretty high figure for such neg.

HOW TO MAKE MISCHIEF

Keep your eyes on your neighbor: Take

HOLBROOK the County Seat of Navajo County THE COMMERCIAL CENTER of NORTHERN ARIZONA
ANTT-MADERO PLOT Is
 EXPOSED
American Said to Have Been FOmsntih.
 New Revolution
ULJOEN IS NAMED

FL PASO. May 25. Revela- tions of an alleged plot to start another revolution in Mexico after overthrowing the leader ship of Madero and preventing his journey to Mexico City, creae- ed intense excitement throughout the Insurrecto army today.
 It is believed that knowlege of this plot has prevented the de- parture of Madero for the capit- al, although he himself declared the trip was postponed merely to await the installation of pro visional governors.
 The plot, which last night re- suited in the arrest of Danibl De Villers of Mexico City at Fl Paso, and of w. E. Dunn. an American, at Monterey. is said to include three insurrecto chiefs operating in the state of Cohuila, according to General Viljoen. the Boer eFan, who is Madero,s eiof tary adviser, the scheme was of ViIljoen and Orozoco to desert Madero and start a new revolu- tiOnary movement.
 They were to be joined by cer- tain insurrecto leaders now in the field, together with a federal general known to be friendly to the ''cientfico" party. It was rep resented to him, General Viljoen said, that great quantities of arms and ammunition are stored in the mines in Coahuila in an- ticipatioD of new outbreak; that success was assured and that Madero would never reach Mex ico City.
 Viljpen was to receive $25000 and Orozco a like amount.
 Madero was informed when the first advances we re made and it was decided to give every en- couragement to those behind the overtures. Shortly after, de Vill- CTS and Dunn appeared at Fl Paso, secretly met Viljoen and Orozco, who professed a willing ness to enter the plot. An agree ment having been reached. Dunn started for Mexico City. followed by a private detective with orders to arrest him on Mexican soil. The arrest was made at Monter- ey.
 Telegrams from him state that important papers were found on the prisoner. De Villers was arrested at a local hotel and is in jail here.
 Daniel Jackson. attorney for general Viljoen, said the names of many men in Mexico known to be members af the ''cientifico" party, involved in the plot, are known. They include Rosendo Binedo,. leader of the cientifico party in the Mexican congress.
