victim than this combile was In

raisers of the west under this ar
rangement.
Debating the price OF beef cattle
to the raisers aud sellers was only
one of the expressions the trust
practiced. The packers combined
also to fix the price of meat. It's
members had meetings twice
week to arrange details of price
and methods of action by which
they could extort the last dollar
from purchasers. One of their IA
vorite methods Is to crush the inde-
pendent meat dealer or butcher
No doubt they have partitioued out
the country into sections in which
each packer Is to have monop ply of
business. If an independent butcher
or meat dealer buys his own cattle
or secures his supply of meat from
any one but member of the com
bine. he Is soon. waited upon by an
emmissary Of the packer In whose
territory he Is located and advised
to buy his meat of such packer. If
he declined to do so. the next step
Is for the concern to establish a
shopin his immediate neighborhood
and sell meat so low that 1t drives
him ont of business. Then 1t raises
the price to suit the notions of the
combine There have been thous
ands of indep endent dealers driven
out of business In this way In the
past few months.

The testimony taken before the
commission In Missouri, which Is
investigating the operations of the
beef trust, proves conclusively that
the packers have combined In a
most fraudulent way to reduce the
price of beef cattle, while al the
same time engaging In most ola
bolical conspiracy to raise the price
of beef beyond the reach OF
the mass of the consumers. This
one combination seems utterly
without conscience. 1t cuts both
coming and going. and always for
enormous profits to the millionaire
members of the combine who are
willing to ruin the cattle raisers
and starve the people If they can
thereby add a few more millions to
their already enormous fortunes
1t has been proved that the six
large packing houses had arranged
to buy their cattle on different days
In St. Louis. Each firm has to
have is own day In the market
without any competition from
either of the others, so that 1t
might force the seller to let his
cattle 60 on that day at the
price fixed by the concern
itself. If the seller held them
over for the next day, hoping for a
better price, the concern following
In the market on the next day was
notified of the price that had been
offered him, and In no instance un.
der their agreement was 1t al
lowed to make greater offer to
this particular seller than had been
fixed by the preceding firm on the
preceding day. 1t the seller de
clined 10 take the St. Louis price

and attempted to ship his cattle to
another point. kilograms would be
forwarded to the purchasing agents
of all the concerns at other points
not to give him more than he was
originally offered at st. Louis
and as conseq dence he would be
unable to sell anywhere at price
above that fixed at the beginning
by the original packer on whose
day In the st. Louis market he had
offered his cattle. The farmers ar d
cattle dealers were therefore abso-
1utely helpless. The trust fixed It's

We received this morning a COM
munication signed "Tax payer"
but as the real name of the writer
was not signed to the communica-
ton we cannot publish 1t This
writer defends the candidacy of 7.
J. Buck for member of the Board
OF Education. This writer says
Mr.. Buck Is honest In his dealing
both public and private. We agree
with the writer. Mr.. Buck Is hon
est so far as we know In every
thing except with our people. It
was waste of money to build a
frame building along side of the
old brick barn we had here and
rent the mi SCRABBLE old houses
that stood above the old school
house to put the children In. 1t
was a loss of time to have the
=
Board of Education spend money
and keep the children In such mis-
cradle quarters. Mr.. Buck lives In
the Buck run settlement that only
a few months ago polled almost a
solid vote against the proposed new
school house In this city. He lives
In that neighborhood and If he
voted, he cast ballot against our
school house. We know Mr.. Buck
Is not In favor Of keeping our
school up 10 what 1t should
be and for this reason alone
Is not the man we want cleo ed.
It's not question of politics or
anything else but self protection.
Sistersville people never opposed
anything asked for by anybody or
section of country In the county.
Why people living In the country
refuse TO help US and even oppose
us with all the power they have, Is
something we cannet understand.
We know T. ]. Buck did oppose
our new school building or at least
resigned rather than build 1t. We
do not question his honesty or his
ability or politics bat we do not pro.
pose to have elected a man
who kept US out of our
much needed school build
Ing and votes against a much need
ed addition for school room as he
has done. If the man who writes
under the name of "Tax. Payer"
can give US any reason why Mr..
Buck has changed his mind we
would be pleased to hear from him.
We challenge him or any one else
to show that what we say about Mr..
Bucks attitude to our city school
Is not true. Mr.. Buck always said
he favored new school building
here, but refused to 60 ahead and
build 1t. Actions speak louder
than words.

The root of the matter is this, the

the food, give the over-worked stom-
ach a chance to recuperate and the
nerves and whole system receive the
nourishment which can only come
from food; stimulants and nerve ton

a fictitious strength, invariably fol-
lowed by reaction. Every drop of

featured from our daily food, and if

of so good and wholesome remedy
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, you
will have no need of nerve tonics and

COAL TO Be HIGHER
Local Dealers Expecting Another
Advance on Bitunin-
Gus Article.
TENDENCY OVER THE COUNTRY
Anthracite on Board Cars Here
Now $3.50 Per
Ton.

Local coal dealers say they will not
be surprised if another raise in tn"
price of coal is made at the first of
next month. They say that the ten
dency all over the country Is to eie-
vate prices and there is nothing to do
but follow the general example.
AS cold weather approaches people
are beginning to realize that there is
an anthracite strike on, Il thing that
was brought home to few outside of
the dealers during the summer. Now
there is general demand for some
thing that can be used in place of
hard coal, wherever substitute can
be used. Eastern "smokeless" Goals
are now advancing rapidly in price,
being now about 81 above the regular
scale.
