Funds Are Raised.

At the baseball meeting last night
at the city hall, the fans of the city
not only pledged themselves to raise
the necessary amount to insure the
support of the team for the summer,
but in practically the entire amount,
checks were posted
f. c. Hall led the movement by
purchasing $1,000 worth of tickets
Others stepped in strong and when
the meeting adjourned the amount
yet to be raised was $500. While
there were a few business men pres
ent taking tickets to the tune of sew
eral hundred dollars worth, the fact
that that there will be ball club
here this summer is due to the pure
d bugs, the fellows who, rather than
see the ball team, franchise and all
leave Chickasha in favor of Musko-
gee, planked from 500 to 5000, took
$40 coupon books for the amount
with the idea of selling these books
to other fans at $40 each to get their
money back are the boys who really
putthe thing over.
Association Organized.
Following the sale of the tickets,
the Chickasha Baseball Association
was organized, the membership to be
limited to the purchasers of the $40
or $50 coupon books. F. c. Hall was
elected president; C. E. Schow, sec
retary and Olin Brashear, treasurer
The president appointed Messrs.

JEWISH DEPUTIES DEMAND
PUNISHMENT OF THE Or
GANIZATION "ROZwOIJ."

Warsaw: (By |. ]. P. b. At yes
terday's session Of the Polish Diet,
the Jewish deputies demanded imme-
date punishment Of the anti-Semitic
organization "Rozwoij" which is re-
sponsible for pogroms in Lomza and
Wysoki Mazowiec on August 22nd and
2Srd last. A proposed resolution re-
cites details Of the pogroms and es-
tablishes the fact that the leaders Of
the "Rozwoij" organization were d.
rectly responsible for the pogroms.

1t so that a high church dignitary
would give to the Reichspost about a
million Kronen ANY other assistance
might be harmful to the newspaper.
I'VE cannot aid the 'Reichspost' by
subscriptions, as the cost of produc-
ton exceeds the selling price a copy.
There is in Vienna a large paper
manufacturing corporation which pub
fishes number of daily newspapers,
apparently liberal in nature, whose
writers and even readers and subscrib-
scribers are principally Jews. The
"Elbe-MuehP as the company is
known, is not free from influence, at
least to the extent of maintaining a
neutral attitude without trying to
alarm the world with bloody news
which daily pours in from Hungary.
The chief Of the Hungarian press bu-
reau in Vienna and the president of
the "Elbe-Muehl" corporation con-
cluded bargain by which the presi-
dent, Armand Erdes, was to receive
for his personal services as contribu-
tor to newspapers in Vienna and Ber-
lin $4,000 Kronen payable in quar-
terly installments of 14,500 Kronen,
and the "Elbe-Muehl" newspapers an
annual subsidy Of 100000 Kronen in
monthly installments of 10000 Kro-
men. Being a clever business man the
president Of the "Elbe- Muehl" concern
stipulated payment in unstamped
Austro- Hungarian banknotes, which,
at the time, had higher value than
stamped notes Of German-Austria.

Shipper, the official leader of the
Poale-Zion group in the Polish Diet,
at the same session Of the Diet, holly

warm attitude toward the pogrom
leaders in the country. He also pre-
scented a list Of grievances against
the government, particularly its part
directed against the Jewish worker,
the "Bund," the Jewish co-operatives
and the Jewish trade unions. "Jewish
laber leaders," declared DR.. Shipper,
"have been arrested, Jewish labor
press has been suppressed. Jewish Ia
Dor schools met with the same fate,
and the government has handed down
without any cause, therefore, indct-
ments against them triable in the

"As to the people of the 'Anti-Se-

The number Of comrades is very

with a few exceptions, are not Of
much value. But the organization
seems to be well established and VIC

with good talent for organization, ct
present in Vienna, are in constant
touch with them and will undoubted-

shall be able to break Jewish solid

DR.. Dorothy Booker, director div
ision of child hygiene, of the state
board of health, was invited to meet
with the Woman's Club Tuesday and
addressed them on the child life Of

interesting talk to the women of the

A report of special committee
of which Mrs. A. d. Grant is chair
man, gave encouragement that some
action will soon be taken in Marietta
to make the railroad crossings more
safe for traffic. The large number
of accidents at the crossings lately
is responsible for the action of the
club and they are trying to get some
thing done that will safeguard lives
at the crossings.
The club voted to accept a number
of men as honorary members of the
club in order to bring about better
cooperation in welfare and civic
work in the community. The Won
ans Club works in unison with other
cubs and by admitting honorary
members to their meetings the efforts
of the local organizations may be
concentrated with greater effect and
success. One honrary member was
accepted at the meeting and others
are expected to be voted on at he
next regular meeting in January, at
which time the new officers of the
club will also be elected for the year.

A GOOD REASON WHY
BUSINESS IS POOR
And Why Catalog Houses Prospe,
Is Seen When Local Stores
Do Not Advertise.

The three banks in Claxton, the
one in Hagan and those in Tattnal
county have combined in an ironclad
agreement NOT to advertise. The
other business houses, taking their
cue from the banks have evidently
combined.
1t looks that way as there are only
two dry goods or general mercantile
establishments that do advertise out
of eight, and no exclusive dry goods
house advertises. They depend upon
hanging out banners in front of their
place of business claiming no profit
sale. Of course the several hundred
people who read The Enterprise can
see what is going on in the way Of
price reduction, as they can sit at
home and read what isin front of the
business houses in Claxton.
The postmaster says that his office
is burdened with shipments from
Sears, Roebuck & Co., and other mail
order houses, and the goods received
home and read what is in front of the
business men of Claxton.
Of course we cannot blame the
alleged business men of Claxton for
pursuing the business policy they do.
They think they are saving money,
while Sears, Roebuck & Co., and
Charles Williams & Co., are reaping
a harvest firm those who should be
the patrons of the Claxton merchants.
Maybe some day the banks and
merchants of Claxton will learn that
the policies they are pursuing are
those discarded when Noah gathered
his flock into the ark
Some of the leading (?) dry goods
houses Of Claxton feel disappointed
when the people go elsewhere for
goods in their line, but do not fail
to send away for advertising matter
that can be secured at home.-Clax-
ton Advertiser.
