The Many advantages of telephone
competition in Christian County
have been thoroughly demonstrated
here during the past ten months.
We now have the best of telephone
service, whereas prior to the advent
of the Home Company we had the
worst service imaginable. Prior to
competition we had to pay
from fifteen to twenty-five cents
every time we talked outside of the
Hopkinsville exchange and now we
talk to any exchange in the county
free of any toll charge whatever and
still pay less for residence phones than
we formerly paid for an excuse of
a phone connected with Hopkinsville.
The Home Telephone company not
only furnishes us a modern service
at the right price, but they have
made the Cumberland people take
off their hats and do likewise. The
dditor of the Kentuckian extends
congratulations to the editor Of the
Nashville American in taking up the
peoples fight for competition in
Nashville, as we know from actual
experience here that competition
improves and increases the service
and reduces the rates.

ELECTRIC RAILWAY.

The citizens of Valley City
have an opportunity to get an
electric railway running from
Valley City to the 500 line, the
proposed road to carry freight
and passengers. Mr.. E. r.
Bradley and others have ap-
piled for franchise but the
city fathers of that city seem re-
luctant to grant it, which shows
that they are not alive to the in
terests of their town. This road
would be one of the best things
out for Valley City and the peo.
pie should insist on the council
granting the franchise. No wide
awake city would turn down a
proposition of this kind, pro-
viding those back of the deal are
responsible, and we believe they
are in this case. Cooperstown
would be only too willing to
grant a franchise for a road like
the one proposed between here
and Rogers.

SENATORIAL DIGNITY.

The senate of the United States
last week sat down on President
Roosevelt because the senate
thought it's dignity had been
rufled by the president. Then
a day or two afterwards the
house of representatives ad.
miDistered a rebuke to the
senate because of some alleged
fracture of the house dignity.
If the senatorial millionaires
club would stand by the presi-
dent in his fight against the
trusts and for the rights of the
people instead of standing on
dignity the country at large
would be benefited thereby.
The senate of the United States
contains too many human fossils.
What we want is some young,
vigorous men in that body, and a
wholesale relegating to the rear
of a lot of dignified antiquities.
The Cooperstown courier. (Cooperstown, Griggs Co., N.D.) 1902-1913, 1905-02-23

It is of interest to the public to
know that the postoffice depart
ment has issued instructions to
exclude from the mails all news
papers and periodicals which
publish notices of drawing con-
tests and similar devices to
boom trade. The newspapers
will not be allowed to announce
piano drawings, by merchants.
The drawing coupons must not
be printed in connection with ad
vertisements. The order ap.
plies to church fairs also. The
postohice department claims
that all such schemes are lotter-
les and the law prohibits the
postofice from aiding lotteries
any way.

ONLY Elsmr DAYS LEFT.

One week from next Saturday
the state legislature will have to
adjourn by Limitation of law.
During the closing days of the
session there will undoubtedly
be many bills rushed through
with scaat ~deliberation. The
appropriation bills have assumed
very large proportions, and Gov.
Sarles has gently warned the
Senate that unless that body
cuts down the appropriations he
will have to use the pruning
knife quite literally. The gov
ernor will have an excellent
chance to lop off several choice
morsels from the appropriate
ion bill.

DIFFERENCES ADJUSTED.

There had been some feeling
expressed by the friends of
Warren N. Steele because,
while his late confreers on the
Worlds Fair commission had
been named as commissioners in
the appropriation bill for the
Portland exposition his name
had been omitted, provision be-
ing made for the appointment in
stead. of citizen by, the COVER
nor. All differences in this re-
gard, it is understood, have been
adjusted by the declination of
Lieut.. Governor Bartlett to
serve again on the commission
and the substitution of Mr..
Steele's name in his place, leav.
ing the bill otherwise as intro
duced. Mr.. Steele spent con-
siderable time at st. Louis last
summer in the capacity of COM
missioner and it was the general
sentiment that he was an excel.
lent entertainer and a splendid
worker for the state.

4 BUM BILL.

The primary election bill-the
substitute that was pushed
through the house by the poll
ticians-was passed by the
senate last Friday by q vote of
% to 16, and we are happy to
state that our own senator,
Maynard Crane, voted against
the measure. The bill as pass
ed cuts out the state officers and
judges and only gives the people
the privilege of voting for few
county officers, while the wire
pullers retain their accustomed
graft of fixing up the state
ticket to suit themselves. The
measure as passed is farce
pure and simple and the COVER
nor would be justified in vetoing
it, in our Judgment. In the
house Messrs. Hemmingsen and
Stavens voted against it, while
Mr.. Palfrey voted for it which
is our opinion directly opposite
to the wishes of the people of
his district. Weare far better
off without any primary law than
the thing passed by this legisla-
ture.

dition thereto the picture of j.

joker in the whole state, should
adorn every printed copy of this
abortion which has been labeled

pie asked for fair law and have
been handed a farce. We are
glad only one member from this
district voted for it and he lives
in Steele county.
