TESTS THE FEDERAL LAW
Government Sues Stock Yards Com.
pany for Delaying Cattle.

United States District Attorney
Fayhille has begun suit in the federal
court at Sioux City in the name of the
United States against the Sioux City
Stock Yards company to test the
twenty-eight hour law. 1t is alleged
that cattle shipped from Mapleton,
Ia. by August Neinow on March so,
were allowed to go without rest, feed
or water longer period than the law
allows. Judgment for only $500 is
sought, but upon the outcome of the
case probably hangs the fate of a
federal statute The point involved is
whether stock yards company is a
common carrier in the sense of the
law.

covering the robbery. They had dis
posed of the money obtained, between
$40 and $11, but Mr.. Houston was glad
enough to get the boys and stop what
he believes a series of petty robberies
and attempted robberies in that neigh
borhood.
Unlocked Front Door.
Mr.. Houston, who occupies the house
adjoining the store, closed the store
at 6 o'clock last evening and went to
supper, as is his custom. The boys
have been in the habit of f~requenting
the store, buying candy and spending
some time there. He was called from
his dining room by a lady who wished
to make a purchase, the lady going to
the house, knowing that Mr.. Houston
would be there at that time. When
the merchant went to the front door
and tried his key it was found the key
would not turn the bolt back.
Money Drawer Open.
Pressing the knob, the door was
opened; when it was seen the money
| drawer had been opened and a
chamois skin bag used for a purse was
missing, with the change left in the
| store at the time of closing. Mr..
Houston found that a key had been
used in the front door and the door
left unlocked. He made up his mind
as to the culprits. and notified Marshal
Sigman, who arrested the lads and
had a confession from them. One of
them even told where he bad thrown
the skin purse, on the roof of a build.
ing, where, indeed, it was found later
by the officers.
Had Spent the Cash.
Mr.. Sigman was not able to find
any money on the boys, they having
| equally divided the sum, and just what
they had done with it is somewhat of
a mystery. They ase said to be rather
wild lads, needing some restraint to
prevent development into something
much worse than at present. Mr.. Hous
ton missed nothing else from his store.
| The warrant was issued on informa'
ton filed by County Attorney Downey
this morning.

A few days ago, says the Franklin
County Register, we were approached
by party who was distributing cat
alogues for an eastern mail order house
and asked if we sent away for any of
our wearables or edibles, to which we
replied, "Do not; never have done it
and are opposed to it on general prin-
ciples. 1t is a curse instead of
beneficiary to the individual or the
community practicing it," With this
the agent moved on, leaving US alone
with our thoughts. We have spent
considerable time in studying this
proposition with view to finding a
reasonable excuse for patronizing east
ern mail order houses, but failed each
time. We invariably find the home
merchant ready to meet all competi-
ton. His prices are usually the same
as those of the eastern mail order
house plus the freight from such point
to the home town. Before saying
you made saving by sending away
for certain articles, compare the quail
ity of the same with those offered by
the home merchant. Be honest in the
comparison and you may possibly be
surprised at results. Another thing
that would be we'll to consider in this
matter and that is who is assisting
you in building up your town and the
surrounding country-Sears & Roe
buck, Montgomery, Ward & Co., or
the home merchant? Who extends
you credit when in adverse circum-
stances, the mail order house or the
home merchant? The home merchant,
of course. Not a cents worth OF
credit can you get from a mail order
house; leash must accompany order
is their motto in business. Consider
these things.
