PHONE TALK IS ABOVE Law
Court Holds That No Action Lies for
Breach Of Peace.


Judge H. L. Buck of che municipal
court OF Winona holds that no action
lies for breach of peace where the
words were spoken over a telephone,
although such words would be action
able if spoken directly to the person
addressed. He holds that by the time
the person offended had reached the
person speaking he would have had
time to cool of. The action was
brought because of abusive words al.
legged to have been spoken by Law
renee Kroidermacher to Mrs. Mary
Simon over the telephone at Oak
Ridge, Winona county. The trouble
arose between neighbors because Of
stock running at large.

Kentucky held a meeting in Louis

corning the press were discussed. The
chief matter that came up was the
question of raising the price of weekly

Up go much more. that the time is

but will put off raising its price as

POWERS JURY HUNG
No Verdict Reached After Six Hours
Prosecution May be Dropped.

The Powers jury will probably BE-
unable TO reach verdict. The case
was given to II at nine THURSDAY
morning, and at three no deciBion mad
been reached. The Citizen. which de-
layed publication to get the result
decided that this made 1t SO certain
that II would not pay 10 wait longer,
and make all the papers late. It is
thought likely that In case no YER
dict is reached. the prosecution Will
be dropped.
The argument began Monday morn
ing. and lasted till late Wednesday.
when Judge Morris began his charge
To the jury. Both sides argued along
the line of the testimony given, and
there were no surprises sprung.
The defense was closed on Friday
morning. and the rebuttal testimony
on both sides. which was Of little i'm
portance. was all put in that day.
Powers lawyers were so sure they had
made good case for him that they
were willing 10 submit Il to the jury
without argument. but the states law
yers refused
The last OF the defense testimony
was important as showing the unreli-
ability OF two OF the prosecutions wit
nesses. Mr.. Walker, the stenograph-
err who took the records of former
trials testified that Robert Noakes
had told different stories at them,
and w. r. Jewell, the lawyer who
took the deposition Noakes has re-
pudiated. said that Noakes made IL
without any inducement. and refused
TO sign II because he would not pay
him.
Walter Day. who was also put on
the stand. testified that Taylor refuse
to listen TO the repeating of a con-
versation Day had with Youtsey in
which Youtsey offered to settle the
contest" for $500. Jim Howard told
the same story he has told on former
occasions. said that he did not know
either Taylor or Powers TIL after the
shooting. that he had gone to Frank
fort TO get a pardon from Taylor for
another shooting and was in the Board
OF Trade Hotel at the time the shoot

The worst of the financial trouble
seems to have passed at last, and
there is now little danger that there
will be any extension of the panic.
Sixty days have passed since the last
panic and that brings us to the time
when the banks cannot fall back on
the sixty day limit any longer All
the banks In the country seem to
have been well prepared, and they
have SO far passed thru without any
serious failures. There has not been
any great demand for the money by
the depositors. also. which indicates a
return of the confidence which makes
business good.
There have been several good symp-
toms shown in the past week. Sew
eral big railroads have declared their
usual dividends. Also, it has been an
nounced that 10000 men in the Pitts
burg coal district. who were laid off
last fall, will be put back to work on
Jan. 6. The reports to the U. s. Comp
troller of the Currency show that
the Kentucky National banks are in
better condition than four months ago
and likely to be able to meet any de-
mands. The same condition is shown
In New York. In spite of Che fin
ancial troubles the last quarter of
1907 was record breaker for in
dustrial development In the South.
Texas leads in the establishment
of new industries and Kentucky ranks
ninth with 3.s71.
There are still hold over symptoms
Of panic, however. One has been the
discharge Of thousands of laborers in
the southwest where railroad build
ing has almost stopped. Another has
been the fact that the United He
brew Charities of New York, one of
the largest charitable organizations
on earth, has had to stop operations

er. however. things now seem more
hopeful than they have for some
time.
Altho 1907 will go down In history
as panic year. the close finds con-
ditions better than they were at the
opening. In spite of the great stress
and strain to which the financial in
situations were subjected. The out
look seems to be good fer the new
year.
1t is notable. however. that the eff
feet of the panic has not worn off by
a good deal. aud that he very rich
people everywhere are doing all they
can to save money. The sale of auto
mobiles. which has been great
source of extravaganza for years. has
almost stopped. and the candy stores
in many of the big cities are closing.
In other ways rich people are stop

MONEY TALKS
Three Ways to Put Money In
a Bank

There are three ways of depositing
money In bank. First, there is the
regular checking account, which most
people use, and which all people ought
to use.
The second way of depositing money
In bank is to make thine depos-
IT, IL you have sum of money, say
twenty-five dollars. which you will not
need for six months, the bank will be
glad to give you its note and pay you
four per cent interest for the use of
the money.
The third way of depositing mon
ey In a bank is to open a savings ac-
count. This is for people who want
to get ahead In the world. The bank
VIII receive any deposit, no matter
how small, and will pay you four per
cent interest on it from the day you
put 1t in until the day you draw II
out.
Every one ought to have money
In the bank" Whether you have a
savings account or make a time depos-
1t or open a checking account, you
ought to have money in the bank"

WORK FOR THE FUTURE

This is the time of year that shows the differ
ence between the that is going c get poorer and
the that is going to get richer Any of tell
1t about the other fellow but which of us can tell
about ourselves9
The man that is going to get richer is the one that
lives up to the old saying that "a stitch in time
nine. He knows, also, that money is only kind of
canned work-that every dollar means so much work
done and will buy much other work. He gets to
work early SO that his work will count and that the
dollar he cans now will be earning more money for
him all the rest of his life.
And now after the crops all in, and the really
necessary work is done is the time when fellow has
chance to lay up little for the future Some of are
spending our time around fire somewhere, but some
the that will be richer are out at work doing
things that will be worth nine times much because
they are done in time.
Here some of the places where little work now
will save lot- will bring in a lot of money later:
If you step tie cracks around your doors and win
dows and under youroor to make the house tight
you will need less wood to keep the house warm and
less food to keep you warm, all winter long.
II you make Jour barn snug and warm your horses
and mules will keep in better condition with less food
and your hogs will get fatter on less
If you get IN all yow sOintey sOooa you won't
have it to do when the roads so bad YOU can't haul
half load, and you will save a lot of time.
If you PIT fe0o M00eks of dirt in HE mudkols near
your house the winter rains won't wash out and make
wagon breaker, and BESIDES you will be able haul
more things over that road at one load.
If you Mat Tie youngsters get aa,nu ezokhes on
in time they won't get sick of pneumonia fever.
II you haze them 0aeeinated they won't take the
small pox.
And in a lot of other ways:
lind II you do ii nozO yon sOonf haze ii TO do later.
and yonH be a lot letter of into the bargain.
Now, when spring comes. the fellow that has been
forehanded and done all these things and the rest will
have better horses, stock and hogs a healthier bet
ter dressed family, more money in the bank and more
time to start his crops right and he'll have time to
read his Citizen and other things that will help so he'll
be better well a richer That's why we tell
you that you tell which way man is going by the
way he is acting And that's why it will pay every
one to spend little time watching himself Tryitl

N OUR OWN STATE
Christmas a Quiet One-Educstors in
Session--Production of Slaves.

Christmas in Kentucky was one of
the most peaceful on record. and yet
there were several men killed, and
others wounded. One OF the killings
was at Boone's Gap, where Charles
King shot and killed Boyle Young.
The cause OF the difference between
this Christmas and others is tina
there is less whiskey now. but there
is still too much and what there is
accounts for its full share OF death
and misery. II Is to be hoped that
there will soon be laws which will
make It possible for any community
that wants to really to keep out the
stuff
The meeting of the Southern Edu-
cational Association at Lexington last
week. was one OF the most important
ever held. The discussion brought
out against the fact that the South
Is rich In all kinds OF natural resour-
ces. but lack Of education and knowl-
edge has kept It from getting the most
out Of these things. It is hoped that
the meeting win help arouse more in
terest In education by showing the
people that the educated man is the
one that will come out ahead.
According to q bulletin issued by
the forest service. Kentucky has Sec
ond place in the production OF tight
barrel slaves In 1906. She had first
place In 1905. but Arkansas has that
honor now with 67.551. 900 slaves val
ued at s2.o51.425.
Kentucky produced 81 ,12s. 900 slaves,
valued at s2.2s6.271. It will be seen
that while Arkansas leads slightly in
quantity. Kentucky still leads in
quality. Indiana produced 100000
slaves last year valued at si7.220
Louisville has decided to raise the
price Of licenses for saloons there to
