In our chats with the rural
folks we are glad to note the
many complimentary remarks
made BY all as to Baxter's future
and its rapid growth. All are
surprised at the number of new
buildings now up and in course
of erection. The numbering of
the streets is also commented
upon and will be a guide to
strangers to properly locate their
friends, etc. The installing Of
sewers and a water system for
the sanitation and the means OF
fighting fires does not go without
mrntion from those who daily
visit our fast growing city. The
people of Baxter are glad to
know that the town receives so
much favorable criticism and
that from those who live in the
country and come to Baxter TO
spend their money.

 ''Such attempts at intimidation" said Secretary McAdoo. "are made by disloyal and traitorous persons and are serious offenses against the law for which stern punishment should be inf1icted.''
 The secretary also promised all banks subscribing to the loan the full protection of the government.
 Both the treasury department and the department of justice are today bending all their energies toward the apprehension and punishment of pro- German workers who are engaged in a campaign in a dozen or more states to defeat the loan.
 Reports to the treasury today in- dicate that efforts to defeat the loan had failed. Moreover, latest official figures, which are up to the close of business on October 17, show sub- scriptions of $827. 7.174,65O, an in- crease of about $127.000,0oO over the previous day.
