PARTNERSHIP Plan
IS SPLENDID SUCCESS
Plan Started by Northern States
Power Company Last June Re-
suits In Phenomenal Growth.

More than s1,250,00O stock of the
Northern States Power company is
now held by upwards of 1000 resi-
dents of the cities and towns served,
according to VIM. II. Brown, manager
Of the Red River Power company, the
Grand Forks subsidiary. The part
nership plan started by the company
in June. 1915, made rapid advances
in the year Just closed, and by the
end of 1917 it is believed that the
number of customer owners will be
more than doubled.
According to the officers Of the
company the merits of the investment
are now we'll understood by the pub
lie, and their problem lies in securing
stock to accommodate purchasers
rather than in making sales.
During 1917 it is planned to con-
centrate effort upon interesting wage
earners in the partial payment plan
OF stock acquisition. The object Of
the company is to have as many
stockholders as possible in home ter
ritory. The purchaser of from one to
ten shares on small monthly pay
ments is the investor whom the com
pany desires to obtain in the effort to
extend the naturalization idea.
There seems to be less harmony
among the Republican leaders since

ROUND UP SPIES THROUGHOUT
NATIoN-AuSTRIA MAY HAVE
BROKEN WITH U. s..
Washington, April 7.-Government
roundup of German pIotters and all
enemies of republic is in full blast
today.
With scores already arrested or
being run down, countless other ar
rests will be made within next few
days.
Enormity of this plotters' hunt can
be imagined when it is remembered
that statement recently was made on
floor of senate that 100000 German
spies had woven their intrigUes in
every section of the country.
While chase is hot and will con-
tinue to be Telentlessly carried on
against any alien suspected of afford
ing aid and comfort to nations en-
emies, officials again today repeated
their declaration that well behav-
ing" aliens need have no apprehen-
sion that they will be molested.
Chief interest at this time 'centers
on men who have long been trailed
and card indeXed because of their as
sociations with plotters' rings estab-
ished in various sections of country
by Capts. Won Papen and Boy-Ed.
While department Of justice and
secret service agents work in deep
est secrecy refusing for obvious rea-
sons to disclose even facts of arrests
that have been made, it taken for
granted that another chief objective
in hunt is to keep war time watch on
bounds of German reseTvists here
who were unable to answer call to
cOlOrs that rounded in 1914.
It is known positively today that

A COMMUNITY DUTY.

The business men and citizens OF
Ascension parish, and OF Donaldsoh-
vile particularly, owe 1t to Cnem-
selves and the community at large TO
contribute as literally as possible to
the purchase of the bonds 1T IS pro
posed to issue in order to place the
financial affairs of the South Loulsl-
ana Fair Association on a safe ana
stable basis and assure the contlnu-
ance and future success OF the an
nual exposition at DonaldsonViiie
which it is the primary object OF TINS
organization to maintain.
In the extraordinary conditions
which will soon confront every part of
the United States as result of our
participation in the pending world
war, enterprises like the South Lou
isiana fair will assume a greater I'M
portance and value than ever before,
because of their relation to the actlV1-
ties and productions that will play so
large a part in determining the out
come off the titanic international
struggle.
Upon the United States will de-
volve the task Of supplying her allies
across the ocean with the sinews of
war, not only in the shape of arms,
ammunition and money, but the even
more vital need of foodstuffs for the
sustenance Of armies in the field and
the people behind the firing lines. In
order that this duty may be perform
ed and the necessities of our own peo-
pie properly provided for at the same
time, it is going to be not merely ad-
visable, but absolutely necessary, that
every section of the country shall en-
large and improve the industries and
methods by which foodstuffs are pro-
duced. The holding of fairs and ex-
positions is an efficient means Of edu-
eating the people and stimulating
helpful competition in this direction,
so it is now more important than ever
before that the enterprise Of the
South Louisiana Fair Association be
encouraged, sustained and continued.
Donaldsonville and Ascension have
a larger and more direct interest in
this project than any other communi-
ty, and if we expect our neighbors to
give their aid, we must first demon
strate our own faith in the enterprise
and manifest a disposition to help
ourselves by subscribing freely and
literally to the fair associations bond
issue. The investment is bound to be
of material advantage and permanent
profit to the town and parish, hence
everybody who is able to take even
one share, ought to do SO; and it is
only just and reasonable that the in
;erests that especially benefit from
he fair should take the lead and sub
scribe to the issue in the proportion
If augmented business done during
he several days Of the entertainment.
