he Hays-EIhs Road

Mr.. Editor:
We farmers notice quite good deal
IN the paper about the road between
Hays and YocementO. Why not take
in the road between Hays and Ellis in
the arrangement 20 the farmers west
of Hays can come there with their
wheat and do their trsding, which
more of them would do and oftener if
they had a good road, and especially
one NOT along the railroad track. so
the women could come safely when de-
sired
The road running North of Hays along
the former Conboy, now Bell
man farm one mile and then on the
section line direct west to Yocemento
used to be travelled road. but now ia
closed by gates, ssalthough regular
laid out road.
This avoids the railroad rrack entire
ly and brings the traveller on the road
between the Early and Palmer lands,
and the road is now well worked.
Why do not the people of Hays in
sist on their Township Trustee and the
trustee of Pleasant Hill opening up this
road for travel, take down the gates,
and then YOcemento and the west side
of the county could have q good road
leading to Hays. Let Mr.. :Levick. the
new Havs trustee open up his part of
that road and the others would soon
follow. 1t is now open, except for
about mile, to travel and would be
generally used if opened up as it
should be. Let him try it and see. c.

SLICK NEGRO IS
 CAUGHT BY POLICE He Is Charged .With- Passing Bogus Checks on Greeks WOMAN'S MIND RESTORED Mrs. Lizzie Jenkins Is Recovering From an Attack By Burglar,
 Who Burned a Barn at the
 Time of the Assault.
WOMAN'S MIND RESTORED

Meridian. Miss, April 4.-(Special.) 1.-The police of Meridian have landed a negro whom they consider to be one of the smoothest of their acquaintance. Today Jim Austin of Lauderdale, very ordi- nary farmer-looking negro, was taken into custody on charge of forgery com mitted in this city. It is alleged that Austin uttered number of bogus checks of small denomination and successfully passed them on different Greek merchants of Meridian. The checks were drawn on the Citizens National bank and the name of Tom Smith was signed. The negro denies his guilt, but the police claim to have all the evidence necessary to con- yict him.
 With her mind entirely restored after being unconscious for many days and irrational for weeks, the result of being hit on the head with club by a burg lar who then ransacked the house in which she resided near Lauderdale, Mrs Lizzie Jenkins knows the identity of her assailant and it is said has given his name to the officers.
 Indignation is said to run very high in the Lauderdale neighborhood and the brute, whether he be white or black, is likely to fare very badly at the hands of the citizens if 1t happens that they get possession of him. It is understood, however, that the officers will not make the arrest until they can do so quietly and with all their plans arranged to get the man to place of safety.
 It will be remembered that the as- sault on Mrs. Jenkins took place several weeks ago at the home of w. J. Aiken, a relative of the lady, near 6auderdale. In the early morning Mir Aiken was sud- denly awakened by an alarm of fire. He got up and found that his barn, short way firm his residence, was on fire. He hurriedly dressed and rushed to the burning building to save his stock. When he returned after the barn had been burned to the ground, he found Mrs. Jenkins lying in pool of blood, uncon- scious from a blow on the head and the house ransacked.
 It is presumed the barn was fired in order to get MT. Aiken out while the burg lars robbed the house. Mrs. Jenkins says that she tried to combat the intruders when she was stricken down with heavy club,

 q do not" said Mr Low. q think, however, the strike is justified
 <'Even if 1t is an unlawful conspiracy in restraint of trader" asked Mr. Lit tlefield.
 Right To Strike. Under any circumstances said Mir Low. He added that the courts had held that the right to strike under any cir cumstances was well established
 Well, all I want said MT. Littlefeld lis the record of one court that has held that an unlawful conspiracy is all right"
 MT. Low said the attorneys of the fed eraton would answer that.
 T see,' said Mr. Littlefield. you say that a majority of the business done in this country is being done in violation of two laws every day. Kindly explain that.'
 Most of our business is in restraint of trade replied MT. Low. And if the Attorney General had prosecuted all who violated the laws forbdding restraint of trade, he would have attempted to indict practically the whole nation."
 William J. Schiefflin, president of the Scheffln Wholesale Drug Co.,, of New York, said he advocated the bill because it would allow the wholesale druggists and the drug manufacturers to fix the prices that should prevail for certain drugs and medicines. If this bill were passed, he said, department stores and ''cut rate" drug stores could not under sell other druggists on patent medicines.
 Well how about the rights of the con- suners?'' asked MT. Littlefeld.
 MT. Schiefflin said that the consumers did not care whether they pay the reg ular price for medicines or little less
 "Well, let us get at this thing said MT Littlefield What you want is the authority for your people to fix the price of your stuff ahsolItely?'

 Garretson's Views.
 A. P. Garretson, president of the Order cc Railroad Conductors, argued in favor Of the bill, saying that his order was imposed on the corporations the members served. He was asked by MT. Littlefeld if his order favored the boycott
 Our labor produces notl.ing," said MT. Garretson. I've transport the product of others labor. The boycott does not furnish us a weapon. We use it only in a sympathetic sense. We use the strike But recently one was averted by arbitration that would have involved the railroad of the southeast"
 Would you have considered that strike conspiracy" asked MT. Llttlefeld.
 We would have voluntarily discon- tinued york; said MT. Garretson. Men differ in their opinions as to the legal aspect of such action"
 Cause of stringency.
 Thomas Marbury of Baltimore said that the present financial and commercial de- preston was due to the revengful fine of S25, GOO, 900 laid on the Standard Oil com .any and the mistaken attitude of the public expressed through federal and state legislation against railroads He con demned the law granting the interstate commerce commission the power to fix rates. This power lodged in the people inevitably results in demand for rates so low as to permit of no profits to ths railroads.
 ''Ths supreme court is declaring those attacks by the state unconstitutional as fast as 1t gets to them" said MT. Little field.
 MT. Marbury favored the Aldrich bill and said that the striking from 1t the railroad bonds was a surrender to senti- ment against railroads.
