McKibbin Hats-Wear like iron.

We don't care about getting con.
troversial on the recent decision oi
the .. S. supreme court regarding
the powers of municipalities.
What We wish to point out to the
Transcript and some others, is this:
The supreme court decides that an
ordinance does not necessarily make
contract, unless that ordinance is
proved just to the city and to the
people, and that even if the rates
fixed were just at the time of max
ing the alleged contract, if it were
proved later that the rates had
become burdensome, then the city
had the right to revise them. The
ground for this is 1.-THE greatest
good to the greatest num-
ber." This is~ not our interpre-
tation OF the decision, but is what is
thought. of it by some of the most
eminent lawyers of Chicago, who
were interviewed by the Chicago
Tribune. The decision is considered
revolutionary il many res poets.

That Auction Rsmpus.
COMMUNICATED.1

At the Sam Brandt auction sale la 8
Friday there was excitement over pull
ing match between two old men from
Little rails and a Royalton constable.
The Little Falls men took some stock ON
mortgage, the Royaltonite objected and
undertook to get the STOCK by force, but
failed. There were two old horses con-
cerned. and it eeems young animal got
mixe1 up IN the deal. In attempting to
put rope around the neck Of a horse,
Ed. made miscue and got the rope
round the young animal, who in trying
to extricate himself, nearly lost his arti-
fcisl eyes and was glad to give up, and
then made an attempt to lead away q
horse from another tarn, but being sur
rounded BY about sixty jolly Dutchmen
made failure and was glad to pull out
for Royalton amid jeers.

jerked the lion over backwards. She
raced all the way to the house, tho lion
hitting the high spots and choked nearly

Definition of "Reasonable Rates. -


The decision of the United States
supreme court 10 the Rogers Park
water case, referred to in our last is-
sue. ls creating interest all over the
country. 1t appears that the suit
was started by private citizen of
Rogers Park. John B. Fergus, and
was based on his refusal to pay the
rates charged by the local company.
The Supreme Court of Illinois, ~hoae
decision was affirmed by the ma
tional court, eaid on the question of
reasonable rates:
"A rate or price reasonable and just
when fixed may, in the future. become
so unreasonably high that the exaction
OF such rate or price is but an extortion.
The duty OF the corporation does not.
however. change, but remains the same
that ie, to exact Only reasonable com.
pensation. The power OF the state to en-
force that duty is not exhausted by its
exercise in the first or any subsequent
instance, but it is continuous, and may
be exerted from time to time, whenever
necessary to serve the public. Whenever
the evil OF extortlon exists the power to
eradicate tmay be successfully invoked.
In the exercise OF that power by the
state. or by a municipality exercising
the power by delegation from the state,
there is no admlxture whatever OF any
contractual element, nor does the cor
poration against whom the power is ex-
ercised obtain any vested property ill.,
terest or property right in the scale OF
rates believed at any particular time
to be reasonable maximum prices for
the article to be supplied by the corpora
ton"

LETTER FROM MISSOURI.
A Morrison County Man in the
Ozarks.


EE1ToR HERALD: When I left Lit
tie Falls last September, l promised
many friends that I would write
something about this region. and l
now take this opportunity to do 90.
Wright county is on the northern
slope OF the Ozark mountains. 1t is
billy and stony, the soil =. shallow,
with little tlack dirt mixed with yel-
low clay aid gravel. This is good
fruit country, all the farms having
big orchards. I have seen as much
as 40 acres ali in orchard, on one
farm. The fruit includes apples of
different kinds, peaches, plums,
cherries, ounces aud grapes. All
kinds of gardening are done here and
the garden produce is already up.
Spring work is nearly done. Farm
ers here don't plant any wheat in
the spring, but in the fall. The
spring planting is mostly corn, oats,
potatoes, COW peas, beans, broom
corn. kafHr corn and peas. The
winter wheat looks good, so do
oats.
The leaves on the trees are peep.
ing out, the bloom is on the peach
trees, and things are commencing to
look green. 1t is a beautiful couD-
try all right, but the roads are poor.
This is practically a new country.
The town OF Mountain Grove is II
years old. The Kansas City, Fort
Scott & Memphis Ry. runs through
it. Antler is Z years old. Seven
miles north OF Mountain Grove and
l6 miles north OF Antler, is Hart
vile, the county seat, % years old.
Mansfield, 20 miles west of here, is
fine little town. Norwood is a
small place between Mountain Grove
and Mansfield.
The country is full OF minerals
lead and zinc. Prospectors are every
where. There is a big mine at Mans
field. l wish they would strike min
feral on my 40 acres. Then I would
go and visit my Minnesota friends.
1 like the country SO far. There
has: been no real winter, and no
snow at all. Ny horse and COW have
been out on grass nearly every dav
all winter. Perhaps the summer will
be wal mer than I'm used to, but
then l will 10 the shade. They say
there are no mosquitoes here in the
summer, but pleuty Of flies, so sup
pose l will have flies on me for once.
l have an orchard with over 1OJ
fruit trees (apple and peach), IS
bearing, the rest young: 16 acres
open ground already planted; rest
OF land wild timber land; all unde:
fence. l have new frame house,
three log houses, good we'll, good
cellar. Have horse, COW, calf, seven
pigs, Is chickens, dog and cat: With
myself and family these comprise
the estate. and we're all in good
health.

ket, I am,
