WHY THE SOUTH IS CALLED
DIxIELAND

Did you ever take for granted that
the southern states went by the col
lective name of "Dixielapd" because
they were south of the Mason and
Dixon line? A new origin was re.
vealed in a monogram in the London
Financial Times on the history of the
old Citizens Bank of Louisiana, in
New Orleans. Prior to the civil war,
the Citizens Bank, having power to
issue paper notes, issued several mil
lions of dollars in denominations of
$40 and $50, but chiefly $40. These
$40 bills were engraved with the
French word "Dix" featured on their
backs, because a large part of the
banks clientele were French speak
ing. The bills became known as
"Dixies," and Louisiana as the land
OF Dixies. Eventually, the term en-
braced all the south.-Detroit News.

You will find enclosed $1.5O for
subscription; it is getting along about
that time of the moon. We have
had very mild winter so far, Just a
few squalls of snow. Labor has been
at stand still for the past three
months, numbering and logging has
been all shut down, but business in
moonshining, robbery, hold-ups,
shooting and killing has been far
above normal. There have been sew
en- officers killed by bandits between
here and Seattle. Last week six were
shot by one bandit, three of whom
are dead and other three are expected
to recover. Several more have had
wounds. Some of the desperadoes are
boys from Is years up, some prove
to be young women in disguise. Want
of work is partly the cause with some.
Yours respectfully,
VIM. H. Hines.
