Square Foot and Foot Square.

There is no difference in area be- tween one square foot and one foot square, though there may be differ ence in the shape and dimensions of the surfaces. For instance. one square foot may be inclosed by a circular line, a hexagon, a triangle or a rec tangle. One foot square is an area of fixed form, the four sides being equal and the four angles all right angles.

BEGAN YOUNG. Had "Coffee Nerves" From Youth.

When very young I began using coffee aud continued up to the last six months" writes a Texas girl.
 T had been exceedingly nervous, thin and very sallow. After quitting coffee and drinking Postum about month my nervousness disappeared and has never returned. This is the more remarkable as 1 am a primary teacher and have kept right on with my work.
 My complexion now is clear and rosy, my skin soft and smooth. As good complexion was something l had greatly desired, I feel amply repaid even though this were the only benefit derived from drinking Postum.
 Before beginning it's use had suf- fered greatly from indigestion and headache; these troubles are now un- known
 q changed from coffee to Postum without the slightest inconvenience, did not even have a headache. Have known coffee drinkers, who were visiting me, to use Postum a week without being aware that they were not drinking coffee"
 Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich. Write for booklet, "The Road to Wellville."
 Postum comes in two forms.
 Regular (must be boiled).
 Instant Postum doesn't require boil ing but is prepared instantly by stir ring level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water, which makes 1t right for most persons.
 A big cup requires more and some people who like strong things put in a heaping spoonful and temper it with a large supply of cream.
 Experiment until you know the amount that pleases your palate and have it served that way in the future
 There's a Reason" for Postum.

Burnley Tobacco Company DlreC-
t0rate Declared To Be
ILLEGAL Body.

The clause in the charter of
the Burley Topacco Company, an
auxiliary of the Burley Tobacco
Society, providing that the indi-
viduals composing the District
Boards of Control shall form
voting trust to vote all the stock of
40. 900 beneficial members of the
pool was declared void by the
Court of Appeals last Tuesday
morning, which affirmed judy
ment of the Kenton Circuit Court,
holding the present Board of Di-
rectors of the Company an illegal
body, and required an election of
directors in October to be voted
for by the members of the pool.
The company was organized in
1909, the members of the pool
agreeing that ten per cent of the
proceeds of the sale of their tobac-
co should be invested in the stock
of the company. The charter pro-
vided that the incorporators should
constitute the Board of Directors
until an election in October, 1910,
and further that the stock should
be voted by individuals composing
the district Boards of Control. who
were the incorporators. There
was no pool in 1910 and 1911, and
no election. In 1912 no election
was called and E. B. Stansifer
and others, in the name of the
10000 members of the 1909 pool,
brought suit for an accounting,
the dissolution of the company,
and to declare the voting trust in
valid.
In upholding the contention of
Stansifer and his co-petitioners,
the Court of Appeals said with
reference to the voting trust
clause: 1T was manifestly insert
ed by the incorporators, who were
at the time the directors of the
Burley Tobacco Society, for the
purpose at the very inceptian of
the new corporation to wrest its
control from the great mass of
stockholders and perpetuate that
control in themselves. Indepen-
dent of any constitutional or
statutory provision, in the absence
of the consent of such stockhold-
ers, such a provision cannot be
upheld. The right to control ones
own property is inherent"
The court said voting trusts
have frequently been upheld,
where consent of the stockholders,
predicted on complete knowledge
of what they were doing, was
shown, and it was for their benefit;
but this complete knowledge and
freedom of consent must be shown.
The contention of the appellants
that the voting trust is necessary
to prevent the stock from falling
into the hands of the tobacco
trusts or enemies of the pool, the
court said, is good argument to
address to the poolers to secure
their consent to the voting trust,
but cannot be considered by the
court

CHRISTMAS SHOOT BY
SHOTGUN AND RIFLE MEN

1t is said that all the rifle and
wing shots of the state will be chal-
lenged by the local shots to meet
at the Grants Pass range on Decem-
Der Fl to compete for cash and other
prizes.
No definite plans have yet been
made for the arrangements of the
shoot, but both rifle and shotgun
clubs will meet as soon as possible
and final arrangements will be made.
1t is being planned to have a shot
gun shooting at flying targets, and
also a range for rifle shooting.
Grants Pass holds the record for
secreting in its many surrounding
valleys some of the best shots on the
Pacific coast, and it is understood
that several challenges have been
made to meet the local boys.
This will be one of the largest
gatherings Of sports that has ever
met heretofore in the state.

Council Accepts
Bid For 100000
Bond Issue

The city council at its session last
night accepted the bid of Keller
Brothers Of Denver, Col, bond buy
ers, for the 100000 issue of bonds
voted by the people at the recent
special bonding election, the rate
quoted in the bid being a premium
of one per cent. with accrued interest.
The bid is contingent upon the ap-
proval of the legality of the issue by
the attorneys employed by the buy
ers, and payment of the first $50, 900
is to be made upon the issuance of
the final approving opinion Of the
attorneys, with further payments of
$4,000 every 80 days till the entire
issue is taken up. The definite terms
of the bid made by the Keelers are
to pay $1,010 for each $1,000 bond,
and $505 for each of the $500 bonds
together with accrued interest.
f. w. Keeler, representing his
firm, has been in the city in meeting
with the public utilities commission
during the day, and the commission
had given its approval to the condi-
tions Of the offer, and had made
written recommendation to the coun-
ell that the bid be accepted. The
recommendation was signed by
Messrs. Williams, Moss, Gilkey and
Counts, OF the commission, the other
members not being present at the
meeting. The bonds carry six per
cent. interest, and are to be issued
in denominations, dates, etc, as the
attorneys Of the buyers may pre-
scribe
In discussing the purchase with
The Courier, Mr.. Keeler said that he
anticipated no delay in the approval
Of the bonds by the attorneys, tho
necessary steps for prompt action
having been taken and that he
thought weeks time would suffice
in which TO prepare for the initial
payment to the city upon the issue

other wards, and Porter seemingly

pie were about ready to concede de-
feat. McKinstry voters had been
early to the polls, however, and by
making a good finish in the count
their favorite came under the wire
nose to the good, and the brass
cannon was called out to assist the
McKinstry partisans in celebration
of the victory.

wards was as follows:

City Election Was Quiet, With Only About
Half of the Voters Taking Trouble
of Going to the Polls.

By the narrow majority of three
votes, as shown by the unofficial
count of the ballots, E. T. McKinstry
was elected mayor of the city of
Grants Pass over A. A. Porter at the
election held Monday, the final
count showing 5SS for McKinstry to
5S5 for Porter.
AS had been anticipated, the vote
cast was light, only 1913 out of a
possible 1000 or more going to the
polls. Practically all of those who
had registered in the three days in
which registration was possible voted
and numbers in each ward voted by
signing blank "a" though at no
time was there the ginger" in the
campaign that has marked the usual
Grants Pass election.
Geo. P. Jester was reelected treas
urer without opposition, as was
