RATES TO THE FAIR.
They Are Made Unusually Low by the
Railroads for November 4.tf.

II you don't take advantage of the
opportunity Of visiting tho Louisiana
State Fair this year. 1t won't be the
fault Of the railway companies or the
State Fair management. They came
to an agreement early in the summer.
whereby reduced passenger rates
would be authorized on all railroads
operating to Shreveport. The rates will
be as low as they were last year. and
they were unusually reasonable then.
In addition to the general reduced
rates. applying throughout the week
OF the Fair, there will be special, one.
day rates, when excursions will be run
over the different roads. These trips
will be SO arranged that the round trip
may be made within day and night
The railways are interested in the
Fair. They realize that II means gen.
eral development in the country, and
that means better business later on for
the railroads. They are showing their
interest by giving such low rates that
almost everybody will be enabled to
make the trip.
The rates this year apply within q
radius embracing East Texas, South
Arkansas and Louisiana. Immense
crowds are expected.
For particular information about the
rates, schedules, ETC.. apply to the local
railroad agent.
Dates Of the Fair are November 1
to IL.

A prosperous newspaper is in posi-

the moral life of community than
any other agency. provided the editor
and publisher has the grit, or courage
to expose all immortality and fractures
OF the law that may come under their
notice. immortality hates publicity, on
so large scale, as it receives through
newspaper, that is prosperous and
influential. A live newspaper begets
a live town. Mr.. Editor, please look
around and note the sanitay conditions
of your town. Call the attention of
the citizens to it and suggest remedy.
What can we afford to accept in lieu
of health?
| would not be surprised to see an epe-

clean up, before such calamity comes
on US. We should love and encourage
patriotism, morality and thrift, and
should hate and eradicate degeneracy.
disloyalty and immortality.
There is no one thing, that will do any
more towards keeping your town on
the map, than the annual fair. Come
together-co-operate and make the
