The case will be fought through the Supreme Court, and as a general rule two years is consumed. It is said that the men under sentence expect to escape jail, and will pour out their millions in an effort to find technicality by which to escape the ignominy of be- {ng branded a convict. If the judgment of the court is ac- jtually carried out, it is obvious that \it will do more toward causing illegal trust magnates to respect the law, and at the same time more to strengthen the waning confidence of the masses in the federal courts, than anything that has happened in years. The Telephone Situation To the Public:—The Reinheimer Telephone system is being criticised for charging twenty cents for each message sent to Hume. It is con- ceded that we furnish free service everywhere else in Bates county. Why any exception to Hume? Inthe first place the Reinheimer lines do not run to Hume.—Wecan only rcach Hume conveniently and at the same time give the business men of Butler and Rich Hill satisfactory service be- tween these two towns only by the Bell Telephone Company via Nevada. The Hume office refuses to receive messages from Butler over the line connecting Rich Hill and Hume (said line being owned by the Fairview Telephone Co., and an organization of farmers) unless we give Hume free access through Rich Hill to all of our lines in Bates county.

C.—For a change, the same kind of justice that is meted out to poor men, was meted out to the rich, when Federal Judge Hollis- ter of Ohio recently sentenced twen- ty-nine officials of the Cash Register trust to sentences in jail, sustaining the view long taken by democrats that ‘‘guilt is personal,’? and making the first official response to the will of the people that was expressed in| the election of Woodrow Wilson. | Now that sufficient time has elapsed for members of Congress to consider the effect of the judgment of the Ohio court, the concensus of opinion } among lawmakers at the national cap- itol is that the jail sentences will do; more to cause millionaire trust mag: | nates to respect the Sherman anti- trust law, than anything that has oc- curred since trusts and monopolies | have come into existence. j It has been demonstrated that jail sentences is the only thing trust mag- nates have any respect for. They | are Wiliing to build up giant monopo- lies in the necessaries of life if their | only punishment, in the remote event of their prosecution and conviction, is to be ‘‘dissolution,’’ the details of which the Supreme court will allow their attorneys to attend, to the endj that their stocks will double their value. Trust magnates care nothing about fines. Fines are considered simply on a business basis. The trust heads have no objection to oc- casionally paying a $5,000 or $10,000 fine, having made millions in corner- ed markets and in monopolies of the necessaries of life. But trust magnets are afraid of. a cell, and if they can be convinced that if they violate thée\anti-trust law they will go to jail, like the poor go to jail when the violate the law, no one doubts but that the Sherman law would be obeyed and the problem of illegal trusts, solved. The Sherman law provides for jail amount of business would be thrown over our line from here to Rich Hill should we do this. If this were done we could not well accomodate our patrons who daily transact business between here and Rich Hill. We used to send our messages over our line to Foster, thence to Hume. This service was free. From Foster to Hume there were three farmer lines that were used by both Foster and Hume over which they gave us free service and we, in return, gave them free service over Bates county by this route, thence over our line from Fos- ter to Butler from where they could get free connection all over the coun- ty. Some controversy arose between the Hume and Foster offices as to a division of fees and the Hume office quit receiving messages through the Foster office. Since that time we have been send- ing messages to Hume over the Bell line for which they charge us twenty cents per message. The people do not pay the Reinheimer Exchange anything for these messages. We collect the toll for the Bell Company. It would suit us much better to ar- range for free service to Hume than to collect toll for another company. We have been endeavoring to get connection with Hume for some time. In fact, ever since the Hume office quit taking messages over the Foster line. But one thing and another has delayed negotiations. We _ think, however, that the parties concerned will soon make satisfactory arrange- ments by which the people can get free connection with Hume the same as the rest of Bates county. In the meantime we hope the city council and the people will bear with the situation pntil the matter can be adjusted. Respectfully, einheimer. More Soldiers Sen tion City. Washington, D. C., Feb. 23.—The Fourth Brigade today was ordered to join the two brigades already ordered to mobilize at Galveston. Secretary Meyer of the Navy Department, first day morning the ground was covered with snow and by Sunday evening there was a snow that was from six to nine inches deep. We think it was the deepest snow of the winter. Ross Williams, wife and daughter, Lucy, spent Saturday night and Sun- day at the home of her sister, Mrs. Fred Wishard, and family of Shawnée township.._ J. W. Thomas arrived here Sunday after an extended visit with his fami- ly at Mariorville, Mo. He is going to build a house for Cal Wood on the Scully farm which he recently rented for a term of five years. in the near future to the Brixner farm near Black school house. The farm, generally known as the Greenlee farm changed hands a week or so ago but the buyer is reported as going to occupy the same this year so H. H. Evilsizer will not rent it thisj year as reported in last weeks’ notes. Sometimes zero means quite a bit if it is in the wrong place. Last weck in our notes we stated that Chas. Doane’s sale amounted to $21,000 when it should have been $2, 100. Roy Walker of this place and Mary Doane of Parkville, Mo., but recently of this place, were married in Kansas City, Kansas, Thursday, February 20. Both have grown up in this neighbor- hood and are well respected by all who know them. May long life, happiness and prosperity attend them is the wish of their relatives and friends.
