A temporary restraining order returnable was granted late Thursday after- by Judge T. C.

In the petition the railroad seeks to keep the county officials from collect- ing $10253.88 which the residents of the nty claim Is the amount of benefits ac- cruing to the road from the reclamation of some_ swamp lends. In the petitfon the Burlington takes occasion to set out that on October 12, 1805, the residents of Rich- ardson county filed a petition which had been clrculated asking for a commission | to assess benefits and damages to property owners by the reclamation of some swamp lands. To reclaim this land it is alleged | the commission declared ft would cost { . and asmessed as Its part $18,240 against the railroads. To begin with, the Burlington kicked on being assessed at all because in 1880 the road had spent nearly a million dollars in elovating its roadbed near the swamp. In March, 198, a jury sitting in the case found that the road, however, would be henefited in the sum of $8,800, and the road }is now objecting to paying more, as the tax will become absolute May 1.

Our claim to store superiority has been conclusively demonstrated during the last eight months. v a3 8 We claim to possessunusual buying facilities which result in very low regular prices, and extraordinarily low prices in special instances like the present and we are ready to make a practical demonstration of our claims. We are not going to say we bought a ‘*Surplus Stock’*—that wouldn*t be so. Most reputable makers sell their products before it is made and seldom have any surplus, We are not going to tell you about the hard luck of some maker who wanted to unload—we don’t sell ‘‘hard luck’’ clothes. These, and other ‘‘Time honored’’ excuses for Sales have no pldce in our bus- iness life—but we will demonstrate that a store able to go to makret—buy fabries and place tailoring orders possesses tremendous advantages over stores buying from Traveling Men’s Swatches—as is the customary way. Our Mr. Swanson recently visited the leading markets where he found many high class fabrics in 39 to 60 yard lengths—sufficient to tailor into lots of 12 to 18 snits, respectively. This yardage remained uncut—and unsold after the Spring Clothes orders had been filled. He bought the desirable patterns at a fraction of their original prices—and ordered them tailored in our inimitable manner. These fabrics are identical with many of our best sellers this season. There- fore the small lots in regular stock of similar patterns will be reduced to tie same prices we are sow able to make. These are our claims. Now to demonstrate their truthfulness. Look at windows 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9—then come here Saturday and allow us to demonstrate that the new store, and the new store only, makes it possible to buy a regular $12 to $15 suit for $8—a regular $17 to $23 suit for $13, and a regular $25 to $35 suit for $18. Assortment consists of all the new 1909 Spring shades in finished and unfin mported Hockanums, Globes and other high grade cloths ished worsteds from standard mills—blue serges, black thibets and unfinished worsteds. These fabrics are contained in every price lot with a preponderance of single and double breasted blue serges in the $8.00 lot. tuture billl ke this public answering these inquiries. In my opinion, every consumer is en- titled to the repayment of the 2 cents per thousand excess which the gas company has collected since January 1, 1907, and now has a just credit on the company's books for that amount. I think that every con- sumer would have the right to rhfuse to pay any further gas bills until such credit has heen exhausted or used up by the fu- way of ture consumption of gas at the rate of $1 per 1000 cublc feet. If. however, the gas company obiains its appeal and gives bond conditioned as the court shall roquire within sixty days after April 4, the date of the decree, then the consumer will look to such bond for his protection JOHN M.
