COMBINING FACTORIES
Cleveland and Alden Will Work
Together in Their Various
Manufactures.

Alden's Novelty works and W. ii.
Cleveland's wood working establish
ments are to combine their outputs.
It is the belief of both parties that
they will be able to produce cheaper
and market their products at less cost
by combining than by operating ssep-
arately.
Both of these establishments have
been having excellent patronage. Mr..
Cleveland had outgrown the power
at his command, while the Alden con-
cern has surplus of motor energy at
command.
The combination will not only con-
tinue the manufactures they have
been producing in the past, but Will
make numerous additions.
Among the articles which will now
come in for attention are two OF Mr..
Cleveland's that have been neglected
because of the fact that in his present
quarters he has had all the other
work he could do. These are novel
ironing board that is instantly attach
able to the end of table. without
screws or clamps and an incubator
that is said ito stand the temperature
test better than any now upon the
market land it is well known that
temperature is the great desideratum
in incubators.)
The combination will also manu-
facture many articles in the way OF
building finishing work and are equip
ed to do job work in the wood line,
make patterns for castings, etc.
Both Messrs. Alden and Cleveland
are practical wood workmen, the form
er having had extensive experience
as a builder and the latter possessing
special talent on fine cabinet and deli
cate pattern work.
This combination is certain OF sue
cess and suggests that further con-
centration Of talent and capital might
be good thing. There certainly is no
good reason why wood working insti-
tutions should not multiply in Lady
smith where cheap material is at
hand.

JUSTICE JURY SYSTEM.
Reform IN the System Certainly is
Desirable.

The News has several times called
attention to the jury system in justice
court and the power of ring to con-
troll the result of litigation.
1t probably was not thought by those
who framed the law that it would be
abused. It has been pointed out that
petty officer, wherever malignant
machines prevail, can select eighteen
jurymen, putting on six reputable peo-
pie to make appearances more favor
able-when the ring representatives
can cross them off. Whoever comes
up against the ring or machine can
cut off six-and the remaining six will
always be the dependable hangers-on
and servants selected for the purpose
of manipulating affairs. There is no
getting away from the proposition and
any man may be convicted or acquitted,
as the ring may desire. This is not a
dream-it is stern reality, and will
remain reality until a reform is eff
fected either in the jury system or the
summoning agency. Cases have been
cited where the machine has shown it's
power and its meanness.
1t has been suggested by lawyers
that either some arbitrary rule be
adopted to insure the selection of
reputable men on the justice court
jury panel or that the panel be made
so large as to make it difficult to fill
it with servelings. Manifestly one or
the other plan should be adopted.

The SAME OLD CROWD
Electric Light Goes Where the News
Has Placed II From the
Beginning.

G.. E. Newman has bought the cleo
trio plant has been reported be-
fore, and everybody chimed in concert
that it was figure play in which 9TH
ers were the principals. They insisted
that the future lights of the city were
to be in good hands and that an eff
ficient, high grade service was assured
by the financial fasco that brought
the McGill regime to an end and sold
the junk pile at public auction.
But now Newman has bought
dynamo. Newman is buying other
equipment. Newman is iii the saddle
Newman is the light company-light
itself. We are to have the same old
deal-by the same old crowd.
Why this prophecy?
There is the law practice-gore
funk.
There is the shoe factory down in
Indiana-gone funk.
There is the lath mill-gone funk.
There is the First National bank
gone funk.
There is the cattle ranch-gone
funk.
There is the business mems associa-
tion-gone funk.
There is the loan agency-gone funk.
And now it is electric lights. A
public service institution, the service
of which is to be paid for by the "dear
people," in the hands of man whose
dictionary opens automatically at the
word "failure -.
Where are the interests of the multi
tude who hoped for an excellent, up
to-date and down-to-date light service,
who clapped their hands at the auction
sale that closed the McGill-Newman
Kaufman connection with the aggre-
cation Of scrap iron down by the 500
track? Surely the clapping was as
badly out of order as it was when the
ex-shoe factory man clapped his in
insult to the dignity of the court a
short time ago.
Yes, Newman has bought dynamo
for $750-half cash and the other half
some time after the payment of that
SIS, 900 to the Chicago bank that re-
mains as the last (perhaps not the
lasO evidence of shoe shop down in
Indiana.
Dear people, prepare to suffer ag-
gravation, take precautionary meas
ures against profanity and equip your
selves with lanterns.
Seriously, the News regrets to chron-
icle the unfortunate fact that we have
no assurance of a good light service.
1t is unfortunate. We ought to have
one so good as to make up for the
past. We ought to have the best,
We ought to have assurance doubly
sure-but we haven't.

is. BUILDING A FARM
George B. Goocher Is Now Opening
One Rapidly South Of
the City.

George B. Goocher, who exercised
the wisdom of securing large tract of
land a few miles south of the city Of
Ladysmith at a time wheu land was
cheap, is now reaping the reward.
Up to the present trme, Mr.. Goocher
has not rushed improvement and de-
velopment, but has allowed the regular
order of logging ana clearing to take its
natural course.
Now, however, this work has advanc-
ed far enough to warrant an aggressive
course.
E. L. Baxter, the dairyman, has
moved upon the Goocher ranch with his
herds and Mr.. Goocher has made exten-
sive additions of stock recently pur-
chased in ST. Paul, so that now there
are nearly one hundred head of COWS
and young stock on the rapidly develop
ing farm. Feed and hay is brought in
by the carload.
Mr. Baxter is now vending the milk
from twenty-five cows.
New buildings have been erected and
a windmill planted upon the place, The
next improvement is to be large base
ment barn.
The clearing of land for cultivation will
from now on be vigorously prosecuted
and feed for stock produced upon the
place.
