The class primaries for the debat-
ing teams at Earlham college viii be
held next week. Eight contestants
have entered from the freshman

hold no primaries, as but four con-
testants have entered from each The
selection of two teams this year in
stead of one will give more men a
chance and increases the interest in
the contests. 1t is generally eonced-
ed that Frazier, Hoelscher, Hayworth
and Lewellyn will be chosen and will
probably be the strongest men on the
team

TIME BOOK is A BEAUTY
Panhandle Has Dropped ADVERTISING
Matter from Its Last List of
Time Tables.

The official January time tables of
the PENNSYLVANIA railroad have been
issued in book form and according to
the railroad men and commercial
travellers, IL is the best card that has
been published by the big railroad in
years. One of the features is the
non-appearance Of advertisements
which heretofore had composed a
greater portion of the book. This
feature is entirely done away with this
month and only the various time ia
bles of the system are given. In or
der to help those persons travelling
along the line, an alphabetical list OF
the stations on the system is given
and the page on which the time table
may be found, accompanies the name
of the station. From a topographic
.l standpoint, too, the table excels.

WANT MORE LIGHT
ON RATE CHARGES
Atty. Jessup Says Centerville
People Knew About |. C. &
E.'s Franchises.
DESIRE COURT DECISION
THE RESIDENTS OF LITTLE CITY
TO WEST ARE DETERMINED TO
FIND WHERE THEY ARE REAL
IY "AT."

Prosecutor Jessup, who drew up
and presented the petition of the resi-
dents of Centerville, protesting
against the charging of an extra fare
of cents on limited cars operating
between Richmond and CentervilIe,
stated yesterday afternoon that when
the petition was drawn up, the people
of Centerville were perfectly aware
of the fact that the Indianapolis, Co
lumbus e Eastern Traction company
was operating under three separate
franchises between Centerville and
Richmond.
THE reason this petition was drawn
up and presented to the county COM
missioners," said Mr. Jessup, was be-
cause the people of Centervilie wanted
to determine the exact status of the
traction question. In other words.
they wanted the commissioners to pre-
sent the case in the circuit court SO
that an opinion could be secured. If
the court finds that the traction COM
pany has under its franchise, the right
to charge fare of 15 cents on limited
cars between Richmond and Center
Vile, the people of Centerville want to
in the opinion of the court, to charge

City Ready for War.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Indianapolis. Columbus & Eastern
Traction company is being raped in
this city with the Main street freight
car ordinance, and the movement to
force the company off the Main street
bridge, the officials of the company
still refuse to hold a meeting with the
city officials and the city officials pos
itive1y refuse to invite them again to
hold meeting. The fight against the
traction company promises to be a
hard one and will be fought to the bit
ter end According to City Attorney
T. J. Study, the statutes that the city
has already directed against the COM
pany, are but preliminary taps, but,
he states, the city, has its fighting
clothes on and the /. c. q E. can have
war to the death if it so desires.

MORMON QUESTION

Fred A. Sims, Secretary of State OF
Indiana, who visited Salt Lake City last

lieyed TO be guilty,
In talking OF his visit to Salt Lake City
Mr.. Sims Is quoted by the Indianapolis
News as follows:

Sims "Mormonism is the Issue, and it
excludes every other issue there.

IT IS ALL Innocence
Date for Sentence of Convicted
Company Is Set Without
Farley by Court.

CHICAGO, July S.-The attorneys
for the Standard Oil company today
declined to submit any further evil

then announced that sentence would

pany Of Indiana, which was convicted

for the company.
Have you anything to offer prior
TO the entering Of n final order7"
HWe have a formal statement to
make, y said Attorney Rosenthal. 'I
will read it,
The statement in substance was as
follows:
''In answer to the court as to wheth-
er the defendant desires TO offer any
evidence tending to show that the de
fendant, or the Standard Oil com
pany Of New Jersey, ever violated the
interstate commerce law before, and
denying the jurisdiction of the court
in the premises, and contending that
this entire inquiry is beyond the legal
power of the court, the defendant still
insisting that the record shows that it
~ luuOCSuI OF IUS OuGuSe6 charged IN
the indictment, the defendant desires
to say this;
"There are In the record no sugges-
tion that this defendant ever before
was charged with violation OF the in
terstate commerce law.
'For this defendant now to assert
its innocence of matters that it is not
charged with or attempt to show that
it has been innocent Of wrong doing in
connection with matters outside of
the record Of this case would present q
situation unheard OF in Anglo-Saxon
Jurisprudence
The statement asserted at some
length that the court had no right to
go outside the record Of this case in
considering the penalty. Tho statement
then concluded:
If the occasion shall ever arise in
an appropriate proceeding where this
defendant can, without any waiver Of
its legal rights, subject itself to the
question of its having heretofore vic.
lated the interstate commerce law, it
will certainly appear that since the
passage Of that law there has been no
violation Of its provisions by either
the Standard Oil company of New Jer-
sey, or the Standard Oil company Of
Indiana -
Judge Lands listened with much in
terest and when the reading concluded,
said abruptly:
