To Clean Canvas.

White leather belts and shoes are
not unalloyed joy, for they're constant
ly getting dirty, and, like everything
else white, they must be irreproach-
ably white to be acceptable. Gasoline
cleans them more easily than anything
else-belts regularly washed in it, or
rubbed with cloth wet in gasoline,
and shoes cleaned by the latest method.
If you use the purified gasoline, that
unpleasant odor about cleaned things,
often noticeable when they've been
most carefully aired, will be avoided.
And be careful about the use of gaso-
line-a warning that can't be too often
repeated DIDN'T rub too briskly, or the
friction will result in an explosion. nor

light or q fire.

BEEF TRUST BUSTED.

/
THE decision of the L. S. Su-
preme Court of the United States
affirming the judgment Of the
lower court and sustaining the in
junction issued against the beef
trust is victory for the people Of
almost incalculahle value. The
injunction WAS issued to restrain
the trust from maintaining and
carrying into effect combination
entered into in violation of the
Sherman antitrust law. BY
means of this combination the
trust was able 10 make prices to
suit itself. lowering the price of
cattle and advancing that Of beef.
The members of the trust refused
TO bid against one another. and
hence competition was destroyed.
The stock growers had to sell their
cattle for less than they would 9th
erwise have received, and the con-
sumers of beef had to pay more
than they would have paid if the
different packing companies com
posing the trust had competed
with one another in the open mar
kct. The effect Will be 10 break
up The trust. Competition in both
the live stock and the beef mar
kets viii be the rule again. Stock
growers viii get better prices for
their cattle and the public viii
have TO pay less for beef. This
result win follow because the low
price Of cattle on the one hand
and the high price of h-f on the
other were both artificial They
gave the member nt the trust un-
reasonable profits from both sides
Of the market, and both the stock
growers aud the public suffered.
A Washington telegram says;
Unless the corporations constitu-
ting the alleged "baef trust shall
heed the injunction made perma-
nent yesterday by the decision of
the supreme court, the govern
ment will institute proceedings
under the criminal section of the
Sherman law against the individu-
al members of the corporations to
enforce the decision.
The minds of the president and |
members of his cabinet are made !
up fully on the question. They !
have determined that the beef
trust" shall obey the law and now |
that the highest court in the land |
has upheld the hands Of the adj
ministrstion. it is said they will |
permit no further "diIly-ddIying"
with the subject The otfense is
a misdemeanon and the penalty in |
each case Is a fine of not over
5000 or imprisonment for not
over one year. OF by both fine and |

of the big revenue fraud cases have
been disposed of. Only the three
cases against n. Glenn Williams are
now remaining for trial There have
been over twenty thousand dollars in
the shape of fines and forfeitures paid
to the government as the result of
the pleas and convictions of guilty at
the present term. Not single de-
PENDANT has been sent to the peniten-
tiary. One storekeeper and gauger
was sent to Jail six months. fellow
from over in Davidson was sent to
Jail twenty days, the facts showing
that he was drunk and in catching
hold of a rural mail box post beside
the road, he caught too hard, and the
post and box all fell down together.
There were one or two more short
sentences to jail for triffing offences.
Five officers of the government
known as storekeepers and gaugers,
were convicted or pleaded guilty or
nollo contendered with the court.
There remain on the docket for trial
ten more storekeepers and 9augers.
OF these the case against j. 5. Down.
ing, of Mcdowell was transferred to
