A NEW POSTAL RULING
Materially Effects a Newspa- per's Relation to Subscribers
A YEARS CREDIT IS THE LIMIT
The I ribune Has to Eliminate Those Over a Year Behind

By order of the Post Office De- partment regulation became ef- fective Jan. 1, which practically eliminates all "time -honored' delinquent newspaper subserib- CTS. Under the order sub- scriber is not a subscriber un- less he renews his subscription at least once year, except of course he should pay consid- erably in advance, making an annual settlement unnecessary.
 In other words, the limit for extending credit to subscriber is one year, after which tina there must be reconing of matters and things.
 The wisdom of the order is ap. parent. The people are often imposed upon by papers coming to their addresses as sub scribers and forced to pay for them when they did not want them. On the other hand many publishers are imposed upon.by people who take rheir papers for years and then fail or refuse to pay for them.
 The order ought to give univer- sal satisfaction and The Tribune believes it will.

Odi D.
 Fairview is cited merely 10 show how the country along the line of the new railroad is progressing. A perscn does not need to travel far to find points of picturesque wildness that might be desirable residence sections were it not for the lack of transportation fac- ilities.
 Other little towns that have sprung up along the route of the new railroad arc Wheaton, with with six or eight dwellings, and several store baildings; Ridgley :, which is located near the junc- tion of the new road and the Frisco, and which is located in the heart of fine timber country It is destined, no doubt, to be- come great timber shipping point.
 From Seligman southeast to Leslie the road runs through the heavy timber portions of Ar kansas and the mineral fields of Northern Arkansas. When completed to Helena the road will be in a condition to make a liberal freight Tate based on the river transportation.
 It is understood that transpor- tation arrangements have been entered into the Missouri and North Arkansas and the Illioois Central into New Orleans. This line will also open connections with southern Tennessee and northern Mississippi points thus giving an even more direct route to these places than is now af- forded py other lines that have been constructed across the northeastern portion of Arkans- as. Concerning the entrance of the line into Joplin, rumors have been current that union depot is to be constructed there. That the new road at least intends to construct extensive terminals has been demonstrated by the sweeping purchases of land. A larger portion of the land purchased is occupied by dwell- ing houses. Many of these houses have been removed to other portions of the city, while those that yet remain are to be removed early in the spring when it is understood that the work Of establishing the termials is to be. gin in earnest.
 That Joplin will be the north ern terminus of the road is by no means assured, it being possi- ble that the line may be continued northwest into the coal regions of Kansas and perhaps even farther.

T Tragedy in Newton County.

The following are the particu- lars of 8 tragedy enacted in New ton county last week.
 Yates Standridge, who was convicted of assault with intent to kill and murder in the New ton circuit court at it's July term 1907, and sentenced to the pen- itentiary, made good his escape few days ago.
 The Sheriff of Newton county was notified by the state author ities and with posse tried to arrest him. Standridge resisted and shot couple of holes through the hat of one of the posse and made good his escape again.
 The Sheriff commissioned a Mr. Roseman, who resided in the territory where Standridge was in hiding and had lived all his life.
 The report has it that Standridge has killed MT. Rose man and killed a Mrs. Overturf. He took his wife to the woods, swearing she had given him away and that he would kill her. Neither Standridge or his wife have been heard of since.

PUGH NEEDS
A HIRED MAN

Taking the fact that Fred Pugh's
enormous lead over all opponents
for the office of prosecuting attor-
ney as indication of his election
over O. ]. Saville, the democratic
nominee, people generally are talk
ing of the lineup of deputies under
Pugh. There is little doubt that
Stanley Webster will have charge
of the criminal business. He is a
strong pleader before a jury and in
defatigable prosecutor. Don Kizer
will probably be kept in police
court to handle the preliminaries.
Pugh is casting about for a dep
uty to handle civil matters, and it
is understood has selected w. G..

at present in the insurance bust
ness.

BOYS
WARMING Up

The democrats plan to do things
up right this year. Within a couple
of weeks the campaign will be
formally opened by the most pre-
tentious preparations in years. 1t
is planned to hire the largest
band in the city and Elks' temple,
and give the candidates a boost off
the springboard into the fight for
election.
The nominee for governor will
probably open his campaign in this
city. So will Billy Goodyear for
congress. They intend to carry the
state for Bryan.
A marching club of AZ stalwart
democrats will parade the streets
for an hour or so each night there
is a gathering of the faithful.
At the meeting of the Young
Mems Democratic club last night
Lewis Shears, lieutenant of the
club, stated that they were march
ing every night and every member
turning out and energetic. He said
that they were all willing to pa
rade all night if necessary, instead
of an hour or SO.

himself. Rhebole has met with
such good success on the market
that he has taken out license
without a murmur.
The market is doing rushing

TELEPHONE COMPANY CAN
BE BROUGHT TO TIME

Here's an illustration of what
can be done with the telephone
company where the company has
not been permitted to pass its own
franchise as it was permitted in
Spokane. A Seattle report says:
Having found that the people re-
fused to submit to petty tyrannies
and impositons, the Pacific States
Telephone Co., through its counsel
Maurice McMicken, announced to
the corporations committee of the
city council, that the public de
damned policy, which as hereto
fore characterized its conduct, will
be abandoned The company was
present, through McMicken and
Manager w. j. Philips, to answer
charges made against it by the
board of public works and to show
cause why its franchise should not
be revoked. The company was
penitent. admitting various
breaches of propriety and announc-
ing its intention of doing better
by its subscribers hereafter.
Gross impudence on the part of
the employees of the company was
brought out by the testimony of
F. NJ. Barnes of 2255 Eleventh ave

Fixed Him Plenty

ApropoS of the widespread tenn
perance wave sweeping the south
and southwest, Senator Charles A.
Culberson of Texas tells a story of
a stump speaker in the Lone Star
state whose effectiveness on many
occasions was emphasized by that
gift so indispensable to successful
campaigners-repartee.
This stumper," said Senator Cul-
berson, was not at all famous or
otherwise noted for any conspicu-
ously faithful adherence to the
rules of the life abstemious. That
fact was well known to a clergy
man in the audience, who sought to
nullify the manifest favor with
which the speakers oratory was
being received by the large gather
ing of voters.
"Will the gentleman tell me,
asked the preacher in loud voice az
he rose in his seat, whether or not
he drinks"
THE speaker looked nonplussed
for a moment, and the audience
Uttered at his apparent embarrass-
ment. But his ready wit asserted
itself when he had had time to re-
cover. Il will answer the gentle
mans question: he responded with
smile as the clergyman beamed
with a triumphant air; but before
doing so | should like to ask a
question: Then, still smiling, his
manner unctuously eXpectant, does
the gentleman offer the Interrupt,
ton as an inquiry or as an invita-
tion?'
1.-The preached sat down" con
cluded Senator Culberson. And he
didn't interrupt again"

June a cutout man came to his
residence to take away the phone
for alleged nonpayment of rentals.
Mr.. Barnes stated that his wife
offered to pay the bill, but the en-
ploye brushed by her, entered and
yanked out the phone. The phone
was on a dollar ten party line,
which the telephone company wish
ed to abolish.
The charges that the company
is collecting monthly rentals in eX-
cess of So. the legitimate rate al
lowed by it's franchise, was admit
ed by the counsel for the company.
The reason advanced was that the
company is making but a small
profit on it's investment.
Upon publication of the specific
charges against the company, steps
We're Immediately taken to adjust
all the differences between the
company and compliments, was
further testimony brought out. Per-
sons and firms, who, for a long
time previously could not get at
tention, found the officials going
out of their way to see that their
wishes were fulfilled.
The matter was taken under ad-
visement.

FATALITY AWAKES POLICE

On account of the death of O.
d. Collins in an automobile acct
dent yesterday when he was killed
by the auto plunging off the
Sprague avenue trestle, Chief Rice
this morning ordered Major Gwy-
dir, the license inspector, to get
busy with fast speeding machines
and arrest those who are caught
exceeding the city speed limit of
eight miles an hour.
There have been frequent COM
plants that autoists driving along
Sprague avenue have been in the
habit of exceeding the speed limits.
There is long stretch of territory
extending several blocks on which
there is little travel. Machines
when they reach there are usually
opened up to the limit.
On occasions pedestrians and
people driving horses have com.
planned that the machines whizz by
at an alarming rate. Major Gwydir
today is active in watching ma.
chimes in the vicinity of the trestle.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Sept IL
Judge Frank B. Smith held divorce
court here in the Durham hospital
at the bedside of Mrs. w. T. Lyme
of Toronto. Mrs. Lyme was given a
decree on the ground of desertion.
Judge Smith sat at the foot of
the bed, the court stenographer sat
near the patients head and lawyers
ranged themselves on either side
of the bed, while uniformed
nurse stood guard over the patient.
Judge Smith was induced to de-
part from precedent by the urgent
demand of the woman, who feared
she might never be able to rise
from her bed. She was so crippled
by paralysis that the nurse had to
raise her arm as she took the oath.
