Farmer. Think what it means to sit at

with your neighbors, the stores in town,
your doctor, in fact, the whole world.
Self preservation is the first law OF nature.
II is almost criminal for a farmer 10 be
without a phone.
Does 5 cents day seem so very much
to pay for all the comfort and profit of a
telephone on the farm e?
A postal, or a call by telephone, will
bring an agent to see you.

Friday and Saturday of last week were Petersburg days at the Court House, Indian Policeman Coffin having brought over a bunch for trial. They were Oscar Kasheets, James Jackson and wife, James Scott and wife, all charged with disturbing the peace; and George keytsah, Charles James and liar ry Berkeley, charged with supply ing natives with liquor. The trials resulted in all being discharged but Oscar Kasheets, who was fined 5000 and costs, and will be a guest of Uncle Sam until he has worked out that amount. In the other cases there wasn't evidence enough to hold them.

May Build River Boat

Word comes down the river from Telegraph Creek that there is evry probability that the firm of Fly land < Belfrey will build and oper- ate a steamer for the Stickine river business. Their present inten- tions are to construct the hull and house during the coming winter, and float 1t down to this point for the installation Of the motive power, which will be done as soon as the river is open and safe for that style of travel in the spring. The vessel will be in the ne;ghborhood of eighty feet in length, with a beam of sixteen or seventeen feet, and carrying a capacity ot about thirty tons on a two foot draught. Messrs. Hyland a Belfry are nov, doing the lyons share of the up- river business. and vii be in po- sition to materially increase the same when they have their own transportation facilities. Ii is said .hat all IS nor as smooth as i might be between this firm and the Hudsons Bay Co.,. ard fight for the commercial supremacy will probably be vaged in the up-river country during the next few years.

Pipe Line Reaches Beach

In spite of the bad weather Fore man Moen and his crew have been pounding right along with the work of laying the pipe down the hill from the dam, ard reached the beach line today. This completes the worst part of the pipe laying as the balance is along the beach, and with the exception that the shifting sand will impede matters some what, it will all be easy going.
 Attorney W. 4. Barnhill has in hand the matter of drawing up the necessary ordinance for the gov ernment of the waterworks. which will probably be received and passed within the next thirty days, so that everything should be in shape to turn the water on when the dam is completed. Those who claim to know seem to be of the opinion that the water will be in the pipes and the Wrangell City Water Works doing business not later than the middle of October, and probably before. Yesterday Mayor Mccormack and Council man Grant combed the town with a fine toothed comb looking for volunteers for work on the system, and this morning a big crowd turned out.
 Itis expected that the system can be completely installed, with everything in good shape, with an indebtedness of mot to exceed S4ooo.oo, and the probabilities are that 1t will be considerably less than that. The deficit will be talk en care of by local business men who have already settled for the pipe with the manufacturing com pany. And then all that will be necessary for us to do will be to pipe our houses, have them con- nected with the mains, turn the faucett and the water will do the rest.

MISSOURI LOW RATES KNOCKED
OUT ~ FEDERAL COURT
At kANsAs CITY.
JUDGE MCPHERSON DECIDES
Passenger and Freight Statutes De-
elared conhsestory-EarnInss
Of Roads Are Little or
Nothing.

Kansas City. Mo.--A notable de-
clsion In favor OF the railroads
was handed down today by Judge Nc
Pherson OF the United States district
court In the two-cent fare and maxi.
mum freight rate cases. involving IS
Missouri lines. The railroads contend
ed that the rates fixed by the statutes
OF the state were not remuneratlYe
but confiscatory and that the enforce.
ment OF the statutes be enjoined. The
state brought proceedings to have them
enforced.
The question:" said Judge McPher-
son In his decision, rs whether the
traffic wholly within the state of Mis-.
souri,, generally referred to In the evi.
dence as local traffic, can be carried
under the freight rate statute OF 1907
and the passenger fare statute OF 1907
at such profit as will give reasonable
return after paying expenses upon the
investment or whether such traffic Is
carried at n loss or less than such
reasonable profit. The court
has reached the conclusion that upon
this question the statutory rates fixed
by either and both statutes are not
remunerative.
