railroad fare crusade is sweeping
through the United States. In near
- q score Of state legislatures bills

Ing of passengers on railroads ar two
cents a mile are pending. and in most
q these states the bill seems certain
to Be passed
Ohio led the way a year ago by
passing. z tWo-cent fare law. The
railroads Of that state adjusted them
selves to the law and made the rates
without an appeal 70 the courts. Al
ready this year the legislatures OF
West Virginia and Arkansas have sent
tWo-cent fare bills to the governors
Tor their signatures. IN Iowa, Indf-
ana and Pennsylvania the 2-cent bill
has passed one or the other Of the
two houses Of the legislature. In
Missouri both houses have passed two
cent bills which differ only slightly
ard can be readily recOncfIed. In
only one state so far, South Dakota,
has the twO-cent fare bill been defni-
tely defeated.
The movement is more general IN
its scope than the famous granger
legislation Of many decades ago, when
many states OF the middle west cut
passenger fares to three cents mile
Their right to DO so was upheld by
the United States supreme court after
a bitter legal fight The following is

unusual and what turned out to be a
somewhat spicy case has been under

tai of the defendant Albert :. Olsen.
who was charged with the crime OF
obtaining money under false pretenses.
II. w, Ranlose, proprietor of q saloon
here, was the complaining witness and
the case dates back to June 80, 1905.
when Olsen came to Richtlold from

ing OF June % they met al tho Ram

until the next morning. Olsen lost
quite heavily having issued checks 10
the amount OF $3.50 within As hours
after the commencement of the game.
The following Sunday morning, after
Olsen had sobered up a little and upon
the advice of his friends, he wrote TO
the bank upon which the checks were
drawn and had payment stopped. one
of tho checks was drawn in favor of
II. w. Ramlose Tor $500 and MI. Ram

issued the check with intent 10 cheat
