The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1919-09-18

At Brattleboro, VT, as Usual
With the date of the opening day of what
the management expects will be the "best two >,
day fair in New England" less than two weeks
off, the prospects of rec0rd-breaking show,
both in point of exhibits and attendance, are
more than ordinarily bright.
INTEREST IN THE VALLEY FAIR is
KEENER THAN USUAL on the part of both
exhibitors and prospective visitors, and more
than the usual amount of preliminary work has
been put into the shows preparation.
ALL OF THE REGULAR DEPART
MENTS ARE SHAPING UP WELL Horses
promise to be thoroughly represented both in
Morgan and standard bred divisions. Cattle
from the finest purebred herds in Windham
County, VT, Cheshire County, n. H., and
Franklin County Mass, are entered already.
The Sheep and Swine breeders of this locality
are also going to be on hand. While the outlook
fer big and representative Poultry show is
better than it has been fer years. To other de-
partments the same story applies. And there
is yet time for developments before entries
close.
THE ENTERTAINMENT FEATURES
THIS YEAR SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
The races-seven Of them for purses aggregat-
ing $3,200-seem certain Of proving as big a
drawing card to horse owners as they will be to
horse lovers. The fact that the winning driver
OF every mile will receive SIS goldpiece is sure
to make every heat race.
THEN THERE IS THE BIG MILITARY
EXHIBIT FROM CAMP DEVENS with it's
huge army bombing plane, it's band, war relics,
army material, carrier pigeons trucks etc. The
plane piI0ted by Lieut.. Moffatt, will give daily
exhibits of stunt flying. The band will give
concerts alternating with those of the Brattle-
bOrO Military band.
THE VAUDEVILLE PROGRAM IN
CLUDES SUCH HEADLENERS AS the Origi-
nal WhrIing Anziraas i'm really marvellous
aerial act, the famous Skating Hamiltons and a
combination of acrobatic features in which the
famous HOlmen Brothers are featured.
IN ADDITION TO THESE FEATURES
ARE SCORES OF OTHERS as, for example,
the Boys and Girls exhibit, the show of the
Vermont Extension Service, Draft Glasses for
Horses and Oxen, etc.
ALL IN ALL IT PROMISES TO BE JUST

Not The Laws ." Fault

Judge K. M. Landis, of the federal court at Chicago, in the matter of a suit, growing out of the sale of stock by South Dakota corporation, made the statement that the corporation laws of South Dakota, New Mexico and Arizona were "mere laying in hospitals for crooked concerns" He went on to say that the laws of these states were made to get rev. enue with the knowledge that it re- suits in commercial debauche:v.
 Arizona's corporation laws, honest ly administered, are as good as the laws of any state of the Union. Lax administration of the laws is respon- sible for many of the ills Judge Landis complains of. Especially is this the case in the matter of the loads of oil and mining stocks that have found their way into the mar ket and purchased by the gullable public. Take the case of the Ari- zona Ray: This property was eX- amined by the California corpora tion commission and the company was refused permit to sell its shares in that state. And at the same time the commission gave it out that the company was one of the rottenest concerns in the coun-

TO LOYAL AMERICANS

If you have not sold and do not in- tend to sell any of your Liberty bonds, this letter is not intended for you.
 If you have sold or contemplate selling any of your Liberty bonds, read and study this letter carefully, then put your Liberty bonds in a safe place and keep them.
 Speaking recently on the subject of the selling of Liberty bonds, which has been taking place, the Secretary of the Treasury said:
 "Our boys at the front in the
 service of their government have
 never quit. If you sell your Lib
 zerty bonds, you quit at a time
 when the government needs your
 continued support. Every time
 you quit by selling your Liberty
 bonds, you hurt the credit of
 your government and make it
 more difficult to finance the war.
 The cost of the war continues
 until peace is signed, and our
 gallant boys are brought back to
 American soil.'
 We wish to urge upon every one of you not to sell your Liberty bonds under any circumstances. If you are without food or are about to be dis possessed from your home, then is the
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1919-03-01

time to consider borrowing money on your bonds, but not until then. This also applies to War Savings certificate stamps and Thrift Stamps. Do not sell either.
 Always remember that if the boys who sailed from this country for France, after arriving in France had
 lrned and come home without fight ing, we would not be talking about holding Liberty bonds, but would probably be getting together all we own in the world, each and every one of us, for the purpose of hand

ing it over to the Kaiser in the form

ing it over to the Kaiser in the form of taxes.
 : If Liberty bonds sell at less than par on the exchanges, it is simply be- cause a lot of people are dumping them on the market instead of holding them as they should do. These bonds will eventually sell at par or above, and your money is safer in them than it would be in any other invest ment.
 ! If, in the future, the roll is called for holders of Liberty bonds, be sure you have your badge of honor in the form of your original Liberty bonds.

try. The same was true of some of the oil companies operating in the Chino, Arizona field. These were under the same control as the Ari- zona Ray. It was impossible that our own corporation commission was unaware of the character of the Arizona Ray and also of the oil company, and why the commission allowed them to skin the public should be a matter for inquiry by our state legislature. While Judge Landis was of the opinion that a
 large charter fee would deter the obtaining of charters by corpora tions, we cannot see it in that light
 Charters should only be granted when the parties have real, tangi- ble proposition to put, up to the public, or at least the public be advised that the proposition is a mere speculation in every one of the advertisements. The protection of the public does not mean that the com panies putting out their shares had to pay a few thousand dollars for a charter, but it should mean that they will get a run for their money, which was not the case in the matter of the two Arizona companies just cited.

There are many ways in which

which to defray the expenses of the
war and the increased cost of labor
and equipment, but it is altogether
unlikely that any means of taxation
will prove quite as popular-if any
sort of taxation can possibly be pop
ular-as that evolved by the French
government. France is to get the
money out of the pockets of her citi-
zens, but is going to get it out in a
way that will make every Frenchman
except, possibly, a miser, glad to dig
deep down in his jeans and "fork
over" 1t is no less a scheme than a
gigantic lottery, designed to tempt
every Frenchman who has saved up
500 francs (about S1O0) and is willing
&c take a chance with the odds. more
or less, in his favor.

$12 ,5OO,OO0,0OO. That seemingly un-
reachable sum is to be secured by
making every Frenchman bet against
his fellow patriot. The government
figures than it will be able to repay
the loan in twenty years in the order
indicated by weekly lottery. In ad-
dltlon, however, number will be
drawn for two years, on each day of
those two years, the possessor of
which will win $250,0OO. In this way
