with their we'll directed efforts to cover
the local field, are second to no papers of
this class elsewhere in the country. And
their editors and publishers. every moth

should join the Maine Press Association
and get together once or twice year to
compare notes. get personally acquainted,
and thus be better prepared to advance
the standard of Maine journalism and
further the moral and material welfare

IGNORING GAME LAWS

Reports from around over the state are to the effect that the fish and game laws are being ignored-that they are a dead letter on the statute books, and that strong petitions are being gotten up with a view to calling an initiative and referendum election on the law. It takes 5000 signatures to call the election. and these will be secured easily, so great is the opposition to the law, but the leg islature was in hurry, and never pro- vided any way by which such an election could be financed. The election would cost thousands of dollars, and the signers of the petitions are not men who have the money at command. The consequence is that an election is very improbable, no matter how many sign the petition. Meantime the state game warden and his 80 deputies are doing what they can to educate the people up to the law, ano also trying to enforce it in a way that will make it popular. Only a day or two since the game wardens office heard of a young farmer being killed at Baxter vile while dynamiting for fish in Pear river. He was violating the law. It puts the ban on the use of dynamite, but does not interfere with any person fishing 1T the Food old way

TEST CASE IS HEARD

Arguments were heard in the supreme court this week in the case of J. C.. Johnston vs George P. Reeves & Co.,, cotton buyers of Vicksburg. Johnston was state agent until last January, and as such instituted suits against hundreds of cotton buyers, all of whom had failed to assess themselves with cotton on hand February 1. The revenue agent claimed that cotton, having passed out of the hands of the producer. was liable for taxes just as is any other property, but his demand was ignored and the newspapers and the politicians too up the cudgel, welding it so vigorously and ef- fectively that during the late legislative session bill introduced by Senator Hem phill declaring abated and nullified all such assessments. The suits instituted by the revenue agent were for hundreds of thousands of dollars in the aggregate and he went into court with test case against Reeves & Co.,, claiming that the act of the legislature abating these suits is unconstitutional Able lawyers differ on the proposition. as matter of course and the decision of the case will be awaited with great impatience especially by the hundreds of men who neli cotton February 1, 1915.

BILBO NEGOTIAEs LOAN

Governor Bilbo has succeeded in bor- rowing $400000 from St. Louis firm of money brokers, and that will perhaps be sufficient to run the states government through the year. This loan was author jed by the last legislature. In fact, $800, GOO was authorized, but the governor thought the state would be able to get along on one-half that sum the balance of the year. The loan was secured by 80 notes of $50o0 each, with coupon for $113 attached, the rate of interest being 37s per cent. The loan is to be repaid next January, but just how the governor is going to repay is another proposition, the legislature having made no appropriation for that purpose. It will be necessary to call a special session, or to make an other loan to pay the first-waiting on the 1918 session of the legislature for the appropriation to repay the sum borrowed. In addition to this s80Q080 loan to meet current expenses, tho governor was au- thorized to float s315, GOO in bonds, the same to be used in backing up the centennial, repairing the old capitol, establishing a tuberculosis hospital, etc.

SELLING LEYEE BONDS

Ed Franklin. president of the Yazoo- Mississippi levee board, with headquar- ters at Clarksdale, has been in Jackson this week negotiating for the sale of $1,- 500.0O0 worth of levee bonds, but it is probable he will have to visit some of the larger money markets before he will find a purchaser of 4 per cent invest ments. The money from the sale of these bonds will be used in repairing and strengthening the great embankments that stand between the people of the rich delta country and the Mississippi river. The land is conceded to be the most fer tile in the United States, and riTaling that of the valley of the Nile, so that the security is as good as gold. These lands sold for 9 and 50 cents per acre a few years ago, now they are worth S10O of any mans money. Thirty years ago there were no protecting embankments and the delta was one vast wilderness, inhabited by bears partners and other wild animals, as general thing, but once the railroad was pushed down the val ley it took on new life, and is now the best part of the state of Mississippi, pay ing into the state treasury a great dea
 more than it gets back, though it's lands are on the assessment rolls at from S1 to $12 per acre. The levee board has millions of bonds outstanding, and will float millions more before the people feel absolutely safe from annual overflows.
