Baker. Ore, Nov. e2.-Contrary to

whom the efforts OF Governor Vests
agents were directed in the local vice
crusade. The jury reported it was

city officials
The story throws new light on the
necessity for Governor Vests action
at Copperfield Acting probably on
the suggestion of their district attor-
ney the Baker grand jury had refused
to indict men for violations of the
state law. If they applied that prin-
ciple TO Copperfield as it seems they
did then they left the matter in the

Yet some people wonder why Gov

methods to clean up Copperfield. He
did it because the civil authorities
through indifference or cowardice
had made our laws farce.
The prospect of irrigating the full

Five Don't for the Business Girl.
Don't think when your employer
cannot see you that there is no need
to work
Don't sit with one eye on the clock
and the other eye on your work. You
will not be able to see either properly.
Don't let the idea get into your
head that YOU are indispensable. Only
one person is that, and ne is your en-
ployer.
Don't tell any one outside the office
what you have heard in it during the
day.
Don't think for one moment that
any one in the office cares whether
you are dressed in the latest style or
not.

SEBALL is THE REAL DEMOCRl
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE
MulhoIland, he owns traction stocks,
And so he sits in a grand-stand box
I'm clever far than he, think,
For his stocks water, while mine is ink,
But my thin purse can better afford
The soft, warm side of bleaCher board.
He sits with the mien of major Fate,
AS the Reuben's in-shoots cut the plate,
While my position can only see
Whether they're shoulder high or knee;
But O'Laughn rules and it's my belief
He doesn't care which of us calls him "Thiefr'
And when the ball toward the left field wings
And the bleachers rise and the chorus sings
For '"TOpsy!" Tops legs whiH like spokes
And the grass beneath him fairly smokes,
And he leaps like panther toward his KILL
Then let them sit in the stands who will!
MuIholand sits in the grand-stand Fudge!
That doesn't make him any better Judge
OF the game than L And, as for that
That knOt-holed, shril-piped, fOUl-fed brat
Is twice as happy as both. Baseball
Is the real Democracy, after all
Sometimes think it is much the same
In the somewhat more pretentious game
Called life. The man in the grand-stand knows
No more of pleasure, no less of woes.
Wealth CD is a ticket Learning e. is dope.
And the ball coming over the fence is hope!

Farmers Conference.

A most interesting and instruc-

for the States Farmers Demon
stration Conference that will be
held in Baton Rouge January 10Th
to 10Th for which all the railroads
in the State will give special
rate of one and one-third fare plus
twenty-five cents for the round
trip. The purpose of this confer
ence is to extend and intensity the
information of the participants
along the lines of breeding and
feeding beef-cattle, iry-cattle,
hogs and poultry; the use of inn
proved farm implements, rotation
of crops; preservation 6f soil fer
tility; and fastening the solution
of problems in home economics.
Selected specimens of leading
breeds of poultry, hogs, and cat
tie will be on the grounds for
demonstration purposes while emil
nent specialists and members of
the College of Agriculture of the
State University will lecture and
lead discussion, in which every
body is not only invited to parti-
cipate but ask questions.
In case some of the farmers can
not arrange to be there during the
entire period Jan. 10Th to, 10Th
arrangements have been made so
that any one may take the second
weeks lectures without attending
the first weeks course, and spe-

There are a number of so-called good,
patriotic citizens who believe it is a
civic crime for anyone but themselves
to buy away from home. They charge
their local paper with being neglectful
when the said paper does not publish
three or four articles advocating the
buying at home. Yet these individuals
will not give their patronage TO the To-
cal newspaper unless it agrees to do
the work at price In competition with
cut-throat print-shops. A local news
paper that is given the right kind of
support from business men of the COM
munity is in position to do powerful
work for that community, which re-
bounds to the benefit and profit of those
who are in business. There's nothing
that can beat 3 pull altogether"

To the Public:-
The undersigned sub committee OF
the Louisiana Cotton Loan Committee
invites applications for loans on the
part of cotton owners in the manner
prescribed by the Central Committee
of New York. The essentis! features
of the plan by which the Si35, 00O, 900 OF
the Central Committee are to be loaned
to the cotton farmers and holders OF
the South, are as toifows:-
/. The only collateral required to
borrow from the fund is cotton proper
Iy stored in cotton warehouse and In
sured in a reliable insurance company.
IL The collateral value of cotton is tc
be 6 cents per pound with 20 per cent
margin. 1nis, in effect brings the col
lateral value of the cotton to cents
for middllng grade.
3. The rate of interest on loans will
be per cent, payable quarterly, be-
ginning February l., 1915.
4. Of all loans made, 8 per cent
must be turned over to the Central
Committee, as a contribution to the
borrowers Guarantee Fund. OF this
per cent such portion as is not used
in defraying the expenses OF admins
tration of the Loan Fund, IL to be re-
turned to the cotton owner who contri.
buted it. 1t is estimated by the Cen
trail Committee that of per cent will
cover the cost of handling the Fund, ir
which case 2t per cent Of this pei
cent Guarantee Fund would be returned
to the borrower,
5. Ali applications for loans from
this fund should be made without de-
lay, since all such applications must
be turned over to the Central Commit.
tee in New York by Feb. l, 1915,
6. Individual loans are not made or
less than 100 bales cotton; but holders
of less than 100 bales may combine ano
through their bank arrange to nego.
tiate loans, The plan of the Contra
Committee, however, does not provide
for recognizing the applications, in any
event, OF persons holding fewer thar
20 bales.
In order to make clear the plan or
which the loans from this fund are tt
be made, let as assume that farmer
has stored in q recognized warehouse
properly insured 120 bales of middline
cotton, averaging 500 lbs in weight.
Setting aside the required margin o:
20 per cent, this leaves as collateral I0t
bales. At &c per Id or $50 per bale
this entities the holder to borrow
5000. Of this amount, per cent OIL
$50 must be paid over to the Contra
Committee to cover cost of administers
ton, as explained above. This gives
q net loan to the borrower of $3.50
In this case, the interest to be paid or
Feb. lst, 1916, and quarterly there
after, will be $45, or total for the
year Of $3.50.
The local bank through which each
loan is negotiated must guarantee the
payment of the quarterly interest or
the loan, and must also certify 10 the
grade and weight of the cotton used al
collateral and to the warehouse certi
ficates and insurance policies.
All persons interested in negotiating
loans from the Fund are invited to in
terview in person one of the members
of the undersigned subcommittee.
