HEARING CONTINUED.
Commission to Pass Damages in North
west Property.

Justice Barnard of the District Supreme
Court late yesterday Afternoon continued
until Tuesday next the hearing the ap-
plcation filed by several owners of prop
erty adjacent to the union station site for
revocation OF the order passed last Tues
day appointing a commission to assess
damages to be sustained by reason of the
change of grade of certain streets, ave-
nues and alleys, incident to the improve
ments in the vicinity of the station.
On application of Special Counsel A Left
wich Sinclair. a commission consisting of
George w. Moss, Charles A. Baker and
John II. Walter was appointed last Tues
day and yesterday afternoon was set for
administering the oath and receiving the
instructions of the court The contem-
plated proceedings were halted however
by petition filed by certain property own
ers. who declared that the court was with
out jurisdiction to appoint the commission,
notice of the proceedings had been
served on them.
Attorneys Henry E. Davis, T. J. Darling
ton and Leon Tobriner called the courts
attention briefly to the legal questions in
volved, but as the time for adjournment
had arrived Justice Barnard directed that
the matter go over until next Tuesday
The grounds of objection to the order
making the appointment are hat it was
passed without notice to tie property
the purpose of determining the compen-
sation of the owners for heir property
taken under the act of Congress pro-
Viding for the construction Of the new
union station, without notice TO them, is
not due process of law; because :he fail
ure to give them notice prior to the ap-
pointment of the jury to determine the :r
rights deprives them of the opportunity
to challenge for cause, and in rher ,e-
spects is deprivation of their Legal rights
and because the court has no jurisdiction
to pass any order to take any steps af-
fecting the property rights of the owners
without prior notice to them.
Messrs. Darlington and Tobrner arxI,ed
that the government is one of the parties
TO the litigation as to how much shall lie
allowed the property owners. and that il
would be wrong to allow the government
in that view of the case to name The
commissioners for apo :l-m.at 10 st in
Judgment upon the question of allowing
damages.
Special Counsel A. Lef.wich aclair
who appeared for the government told
| the court that II would have been imposs;-
BILE to give notice to all the property own
ers before the appointm mt of the commits
sion, as their names were not known to
him. This he contended. was one o. the
duties of the commission "hch the CON-
mission would have to peri IN after /. had
organized.
1t is estimated that the amount Involved
with which the commit sion will l1aye tn
deal will exceed S1.G00.009. and that tie
number of claims will be n ;he neigh5or-
hood of 1000.

The Experience of Others.

The truly successful man IN
the twentieth century 10 the man
who profits by the experience Of
others. The man with the head
full of original ideas seldom
makes those ideas earn him n
fortune. Rather is it the man
who improves on the ideas of
others who makes the'fortune.
In Germany the farmers, to
overcome the fuel monopolies,
have gone TO raising potatoes.
These potatoes are converted into
alcohol and that alcohol is used
for fuel in running electric
motors and other machinery. So
that the solution of the fuel
problem has been made by the
farmers.
The farmers of West Texas, if
they look far enough ahead, may
know that it is only question of
time until the fuel problem will
be one of great Importance, They
might work on this idea success
fully demonstrated in Germany
which will help solve the fuel
problem and work TO their own
financial benefit.
This is but one instance of how
the future of the country rests
with the farmers. It is much
better that the power be held by
him than by the monopolists. lie
it is who can rule the nation if he
will and he it is who for years
has forgone his birthright in this
particular, now to find that the
other fellow has proiited by it,
and immensely.
Whenever the farmer wakes up
to the true state of affairs he will
be power. Until he does he will
have yet more cause for "cuss-
ing" the octopus. Let the farmer
work out his own salvation. He
has the power if he will but use it,.

Another Evidence OF LiberaIity.

Last Wednesday a list was cir

citizens to raise funds for paying
the fine of u woman who was in

woman is n mother of three small
children, poorly clothed and APP
parently suffering from want of
food. The amount was made up
What matters it if the woman
was u bad one. The cause Of hui
mainly demanded her liberty that
her children might be looked
after. Christ said, "Let him that
is without sin cast the first stone. "
The action of these people in max

the woman deserved their aims or
no the action was Il charitable
one and worthy of comment.
