The Tribune
And News
FRIDAY. NOV. 6. 1914
A disease which has appeared
among the children of Bartlett,
and which our physicians diag-
nose as diphtheria, is reported to
be gradually spreading. The
disease appeared but a few days
ago and already one life has
been sacrificed to the ravages of
this dread plague. It is time
for our authorities to awaken to
the alarm call of sanitary condi-
tions. To prevent a further
spread of the affliction orders
should be issued by the authori-
ties for the immediate cleaning
of cess pools, out-houses and
premises. A few Texas cities
have ordinances which make it a
finable offense to speak of a con-
tagious disease in a public place.
The Tribune does not believe
in the sacrifice of human life to
promote greed or graft and it
herewith respectfully petitions
the city and health authorities
of Bartlett to get busy and blot
out the disease.

If there is any evil intent on
the part of saloons or clubs in the
dispensation of intoxicating liq-
ours the fault is not of the incli
nation or desire of many of those
who serve these fluids. The root
of the evil, if evil there be, rests
with the governments which li
censes its sale, and' to these the
protests should be made. But
while our prohibition friends are
so assiduously engaged In com-
bating the liquor traffic they are
overlooking a few questions of
more momentous importance.
Club rooms and private dwellings
in many instances, are nightly
gambling resorts. The streets
and alleys run riot with baudy-
ism that is not connected with
the booze problem, yet the whole
disgraceful business is charged
against the licensed saloon. It
is time we were awakening to a
realization of a menace that is
undermining our civilization to a
greater extent than all the sal-
oons of christiandom.
At the Crescent Theatre to-
night the Southern Production
Company will present a series of
street scenes inJIBartlett. It is
true to life and well worth your
patronage.
Our entire line of Men's and Boys' Clothing, including

Exactly W
Nothing reserved. Our entire stock of Clothing will
be sold without one cent of profit to you. Just now
our stock is very full and complete. We can fit almost
any sized man or boy. This does not include "Head-
light" and "Penn" Overalls.
Ladies' Skirts 1 -
At the same time we will place on sale our entire line
of Ladies' Skirts at just half price. This means you
can buy a Skirt for less than it cost for the material
without a cent for making. They will be sold at once.

Why is it that cotton seed is
selling in markets only a few
miles distant at different prices?
Farmers in this part of Texas
are selling their seed for several
doliars less than stock-farmers in
adjoining states are paying for
cotton seed to feed their cattle on
during the winter. There is no
adequate means of relief through
any other method but organiza-
tion. The farmers must pool
their holdings and have a secre
tary to locate the purchasers.
And in order to get the best re
sults, markets must be served
regularly year after year and
season after season. In no other
way can the trade of good cus
tomers be held, and this calls for
permanent organization. Round
Rock Leader.
Results of the state elections
held on Tuesday demonstrate a
decided lack of interestyamong
the voters, as well as substantial
gains on the republican side of
the political controversy. They
have gained nearly forty mem-
bers in the house and several in
the senate. Late returns state
that the democratic majority in
the house will probably be re-
duced to twenty-three.
Some people believe in giving
even the devil his dues and
then forget all about the home
papes, that works in and out of
season for the advancement of
the town and community. Don't
forget the small dues coming to
the Tribune.
Representatives of the Tribune
who took a buggy tt ip through
the Little River territory last
Sunday, report havihg counted
nearly three hundred bales of
cotton in the various farmyards.
On the farm of J. W. Walker on

red head of hogs, which demon-
strates the business sese of
Mr. Walker.
