THOSE WHO HAVE BOUGHT
One or More Bales of Cotton un
der Buy-a.Bale Plan.

The buy-a-bale of cotton plan for
the relief of the small farmer is
making little headway in this COM
munity. The reason for this is due
perhaps to the indisputable fact that
practically all of our citizens are
farmers and have cotton of their
own. A number of our merchants,
all of our bankers and some of our
professional men are either practi-
cal farmers or interested as lessons
to share troopers. In this way they
have good deal of money already
invested in cotton and are not
in condition financially to enter into
the buy-a-bale plan. However, all
of our leading merchants are taking
cotton on accounts at 10 cents the
pound.
A few bales have been purchased
recently from small farmers by in
dividual citizens: Mayor w R Scott,
l bale; w T Wilkins, 2 bales; Sheriff
G J Graham, 3 bales; Rev P S Nc
Chesney, l bale.
The firm of Strouse Brothers,
Baltimore, one of the leading cloth
ing manufacturing concerns in the
country, has authorized each of
its customers, numbering upwards
of 1000 throughout the cotton belt,
to buy a bale for them. In compli-
ance with their instructions Mr. K G
Burgess, of the Peoples Mercantile
Company, yesterday bought a bale
from a small farmer. This bale will
be stored in local warehouse and
insured against loss by fire, subject
to the order of Strouse Bros,

Last week we received three OF
four communications and advertise
ments Thursday morning, all IN
tended for last weeks paper. We
try to be accommodating and held
the paper back till the next day,
Friday, in order to get the type up,
corrected, etc. The same thing oc-
Cured the week before. Now, our
time limit for articles of length and
advertisements is Tuesday, noon, OF
the current week, and we shall have
to adhere to this rule or the paper
will be hopelessly late every week.
Moreover, when articles for publica-
ton come in late that way, it de-
moralizes the whole force, causes
our printers to have to work over
time at.night, and in the rush and
confusion we can do neither the cor
respondent, the advertiser nor the
paper justice. We are supposed to
set no type after Wednesday, noon,
the rest of the time being required
in correcting proofs, making up
forms and printing and issuing the
paper. There is a limit to human
possibility and, although we have a
very well-equipped plant and COM
petent printers, we cannot get up a
weekly paper in one day. Co.

at least Tuesday night and, barring
accidents, we promise always to get

Some wild yarns have been foist-
ed ON credul0uS public since the
big war started in Europe, but here
is one that caps the climax: When
the German army was threatening
the city of Paris a few weeks ago, as
the story goes, Il detachment OF
German troops happened to pass
the home of a French farmer, where
bull was grazing in nearby pas
ture. No sooner did the bull espy
the foreign uniform than, with ber-
serker rage, he broke through the
pasture fence and charged the Ger
man troops, ,goring sixteen of them to
death before he was killed. Next. .

The Legislatures of Texas and

statute law a bill to require the
use of the old "blue-back speller'

This measure may appear non

to our mind there never has been a
"speller" on the market the equal
of the old, original "blue-back' OF

eft Was a Great Victory" I"

The following poem, written by
Robert Southey after the battle of
Blenheim, which took place in South
Germany in 1704, so aptly pictures
the general lack of knowledge of
the present great war, and what
they fought each other for" that
we reproduce it for the benefit of
our readers:
1t was summer evening.
Old Kaspar's work was done,
And he before his cottage door
Was sitting in the sun;
And by him sported on the green
His little grandchild, Wilhelmine.
She saw her brother Peterkin
Roll something large and round,
Which he beside the rivulet
In playing there had found;
He came to ask what he had found
That was so large and smooth and round.
Old Kaspar took it from the boy
Who stood expectant by;
And then the old man shook his head,
And with natural sigh:
IT'S some poor fellows skull, said he,
who fell in the victory.
4 find them in the garden,
For there's many here about;
And often when go to plough
The ploughshare turns them out,
For many thousand men, said ne,
Were slain in that great victory.
Now tell us what twas all about,
Young Peterkin he cries;
And little Wilhelmine looks up
With wonder-waiting eyes;
Now tell us all about the war,
And what they fought each other for. :.
1T was the English, Kaspar cried,
Who put the French to rout.
But what they fought each other for
| could not well make out.
But everybody said, quoth he,
That 'twss a famous victory.
NV father lived at Blenheim then,
Yon little stream hard by;
They burnt his dwelling to the ground,
And he was forced to fly;
So with his wife and child he fled,
Nor had he where to rest his head.
with fire and sword the country round
Was wasted far and wide
And many childing mother then
And newborn baby died;
But things like that, you know, must be
At every famous victory.
They say it was shocking sight
After the field was won;
For many thousand bodies here
Lay rotting in the sum-;
But things like that, you know, must be
After famous victory.
Great praise the Duke of Marlboro won
And our good Prince Eugene
why twas very wicked thingp
Said little Wilhelmine;
Nay nay my little girl, quoth he,
1T was famous victory.
And everybody praised the Duke
Who this great fight did win.
But what good came of it at last?
Quoth little Peterkin.
'Why that cannot tell, said he,
But twas famous victory

ALLIES CLAIM GERMAN
RIGHT WING DEFEATED
PARIS ESPATCH REPORTS THE
ALLIES IN HOT PURSUIT
OF FLEEING ARMY.

While the French and British Of
fetal announcements indicate salts
faction with the situation along the
battle front in France and conf
dence in the outcome, an unofficial
report from Paris declares the Ger
man right has been broken and is
being pursued by the allies.
This report also declares the Ger
mans have been surrounded in the
Somme department and that Peronne
had been recaptured.
The Official press bureau at Lon
don, while making no objection to
the publication of these reports, de-
clined TO take any responsibility for
their correctness.
Announcement late at night by
French and British officials declared
there had been no change in the
situation which they previously had
reported as favoring the allies to
some degree.
A narrative from Field Marshal
Sir John French's headquarters,
issued at London by the official press
bureau, gives the reason for the
Iong-drawn-out battle, which has
lasted eighteen days. The extent
of the country covered" it says,
lis so great as to render slow any
efforts to maneuver and march
around the flank in order to escape
the costly expedient of a frontal
attack against heavily fortified posi-
tions."
This refers to the fiercely contest
ed operations of the allies left in
an endeavor to outfiank the German
right wing under Gen Won Kluck.
In these operations French and Brit
ish, heavily reinforced, have been
engaged for several days and the
encounters at times are reported to
have been unprecedented.
In the far east there are signs of
much activity on the part of Japan
ese, who are engaged in a land and
sea movement against the German
concession of Kiao-Chow, in Shan
tung province, China. The Japan
ese have occupied the heights out
side of Tsing-Tau, the capital, over
looking the Germans main line of
defence.
Chinese troops have blown up the
railroad bridge at Tayu-Ho, six
miles west of Wei-Hsien, which also
has been occupied by the japanese,
and thus are apparently opposing
japanese military operations in
Shantung province.
Meagre reports of the Russian
campaign against Prussia and Ger
many indicate a period of compara-
tive calm, while the great armies of
these nations are getting into posi-
ton.
