TO KEEP UP FIGHT
Standard VIII Contest Verdict of Con-
victiOn to the Last.

Chicago, April 15.-Despite over
whelming proof of its violation of the
Elk1ns law, as shown by the verdict of
guilty returned against it in the United
states district court the Standard Oil
company has by no means given up.
No legal technicality is to be over
looked by its attorneys and the case
will be kept in the courts as long as
possible.
Within few days judge Lands will
be asked to fix the time when he can
near arguments on a motion for a new
trlal. Should Judge Lands sustain
this motion in arrest of judgment, the
refuse to pay the fine and prepare for
similar line of battle in the seven
remaining indictments. If the motion
is denied. the case will be appealed
either to the court of appeals or to the
United States supreme court
The argument of the defense will be
that in accepting the six cent rate the
Standard Oil company committed only
one violation of the Elkins act and
that the contention of the government
that each car of oil shipped consti-
tuted an additional offense is not good.
To this the government will reply
that as only one offense can be pun
ished by no more than $4,000 and
that the amount derived by the Stand
ard Oil company in the counts charged
in the indictment was 1929, 700, the
fine is h. no means commensurate
with the crime.
eff $4,000 is the most the govern
ment can fine a violator of this law"
said an assistant district attorney, sit
will have little effect in stamping out
evils it was enacted to rem edy. In this
case we took shipments of cars only
in 1903. but that represented only
fraction of the number shipped by the
Standard from its refinery at Whiting
to st. Louis under the secret rate.
venture the total rebate. for that is
what it virtually was, could not have
been less than 100000. And this is
only one case"

TO SETTLE AN OLD LAND CASE
Bernard HickeFt of Cheyenne County
Trying to Straighten Out TangIe.

A molten for a judgment on the plead
ings has been filed in the supreme court
in the mandamus suit of Bernard Hick-
ert against the county clerk and county
treasurer of Cheyenne county, by John
Dawson. attorney for Hickert
This follows an answer filed by the
clerk and treasurer in which they set
forth that they are not unwilling to
comply with the order of the court, and
that they admit all the contentious set
forth in the petition Of Mr.. Hickert.
The whole object of the suit was to
get an order of the supreme court to
protect the clerk and treasurer in a GER
tain school land case pending before
them.
Hickert bought tract of school land
and lived on 1t for number of years.
Then an Original certificate holder to
the land bobbed up, and Hickert had to
pay this original holder $500 to secure
the title. Hickert then figured ii out
that IL would be cheaper to pay out I'M
der the original certificate than under
his new certificate, and tried to arrange
his payments TO the county on that
basis. The county clerk and county
treasurer were not sure that they had
the right to receive the money on the
original certificate. and the supreme
court was appealed to to settle the con-
troversy. It is likely that the motion
for a Judgment on the pIeadings in be-
half of Mr.. Hickert will be rendered.

Saturday morning and made arrange
ments for the organization of a base
ball team which will organize next
Saturday. In the meantime the team
is anxious to play any team their size
in town.
Engineer William Tennyson is laying
off for few days on the Leavenworth
runs.
William Giffin, who lived at Strong
City and worked with a section gang
for the Santa F'e, under Foreman Rob
ert Patterson, was killed yesterday two
miles east of Strong City by Santa Fe
train No. 113. He was setting ties with
his gang when the train approached.
All but Giffin stepped off the track.
The men thought Giffin knew the train
was coming, and was not in a hurry
to move. He was STOPPING over when
the other men got out of the way and
he did not hear the foreman speak to
him, so he was entirely unconscious of
the approaching train, until it was too
late. The engineer thought that Gifhn
was warned as were the other men.
But he did not move, and the pilot of
the enginee struck him on the head,
crushing his skull and breaking his
arm. He died almost instantly. Mr..
Giffin leaves a wife and eleven chill
dren, the oldest of whom is % and the
youngest is about years old. He was
so years of age, and had been work
ing on the section at Strong City since
last fall.

WILSON SAYS IT DOESN'T PAY.
Will Require Nine Months at 500 Per
Month to Complete House Journal.

D. Y. Wilson, of Republic county,
chief clerk of the last house of represen-
tatives, is working in Topeka now with
Miss Clara Fritz, his stenographer, in
the preparation of the copy for the jour
nal of the house of representatives. For
this work the state allows him the sum
of $1,000. in addition to his pay while
chief clerk of the house.
Il wouldn't undertake that Job again
for $1,000'' said Mr.. Wilson today TT
does not pay. The job is good for about
nine months time, and by the time a
person pays the stenographers and copy
lists necessary to do the work, it leaves
a salary of only about 500 per month
for the chief clerk. No person can af-
ford to take a job good for only nine
months in the year which pays only
800 month, if that person is of suffi-
cient ability to do that kind of work
1T is probable, in my opinion, that
the legislature will at its next session
adopt a new plan for handling this

those whose. people for many genera
lions have lived inland have progress
ed farther from the fish stage of ex-
istence. With dozen lessons from a
thorough instructor the beginner should
be able to swim fifty feet with the
breast stroke. At least two years will
be required to perfect the trudgeon,
and the Australian crawl, which is
the fastest stroke known for sprinting,
cannot be accomplished short of four
years"
The beginner should always keep up
a mental count in making the stroke

is always something in action to carry
one through the water The arms and
legs should never be moved together
in the same direction. The breast
stroke Is counted IL, the 2 for the leg
kick as the arms are showed forward.
The trudgeon stroke is counted in 1928
periods, each one of the arms counting
IL and the legs 3. Following these

Bunches Of Votes.

Those who have figured on the mat

of the primary will be known until
about noon of the day after the cleo
ton. The ticket will contain the names
Of all the state candidates, all 1
county candidates and county district,
or beat candidates. such as constables,
magistrates, and members of board
of supervisors, etc. The minimum
number of names on the ticket in any
one county will be about 70 and it will
sometimes run up to rs or even &c.,
where there are many candidates for
railroad commissioner, legislature,
etc. The polls open at 9 o'clock and
must be kept open until in the after
noon. Many precincts will have
from 300 to 600 or more votes to be
counted and each of these ballots will
have to be read out from United
States senator down to a tally kept
of each man voted for. Work as fast
as they may it is estimated that the
election officers will not be able to
count more than sixty ballots in an
hour, and perhaps not so many, so that
it will take long after midnight to fin
ish the counts, and in many instances
the counts will be adjourned over till
next day, The only information, there
fore, that will be possible to get on
election night will be some idea Of the
way the vote is going on Governor
and United States Senator'S report
showing how the vote stands say at
midnight with little more than half
the ballots counted. Four years ago
there was nothing definite known I'M
til late in the afternoon of the next
day as to who was nominated for Gov
ernor, and the friends of the various
candidates were claiming victory up
to noon of the day after, because 1t
was impossible to get accurate figures
