LITTLE SHOW
FOR CAR SERVICE
Street Car Company is
Standing Pat.
COUNCIL IS STILL WORKING
Little Hope for Success in
the Mission.
David Street Residents will Have 20
Contend Themselves with the Ser
vice Afforded by the Intcrurban
Cars.

The Davlds street residents are no
at all pleased over the outcome o
their demands for better street ca
service. They do not BILE me the cit,
| council at all as they are connden
that that body is doing all in its pow
cr to advance their interests.
The blame is all fixed on the stree
car company. 1t is claimed that tn,
company could easily run their car
the extent of Davids street without |
being necessary to increase the fore,
of men or add to the equipment. 81
is simply stubbOrnness: the car com
pany is just holding back to see If tn,
city can make them meet with tn,
public's demands" declared an indig
nunt citizen Monday.
The ordinance and franchise com.
mlttee of the city council, composed
of Mcssrs a. w. Bryant, ID. Il. J
Brockett and j. j. Rudolph. has not
by any means given up the fight
1--WE believe that the Davids street
residents are right in their demands
and we are going to do all we can for
them" exclaimed one of the commit
tee. THE local street car company
knows well enough that their cars
should be run to the outskirts of the
city. even though the last quarter OF
"A mile does not bring i'm any special
income. We intend to have an import
ant report to make at the next meet
ing Of the city council concluded the
committeeman.
Bryant claims that the report OF
the street car management TO the eff.
feet that the interurban cars would
stop at any street crossing on Davids
street, was false. He says that the
cars only stop where the inscription,
Local Cars Stop Here" is posted on
the telephone poles. If the interur-
ban cars could be made to stop at any
point, then the residents could wait
i'm their homes and only leave the
fire esidc in time to hail the train. AS
II is, many of the residents are COM
PEELED to walk three or four blockks,
then If the car happens to be late,
stand in the cold for maybe half
hour It is "A long walk uptown for
the Davids street people and IL Is not
that they are making such
an earnest kick for somekind of street
car service.

WALDO SCHOOLS IN
THE THIRD CLASS
Prof. A. D. Wells Accom-.
plishes a Great Good.
Commencement VIII BE Held May o.
and Glass of Seven will be Grad
uatcd.

Waldo residents are highly elated
over the announcement made by State
School Commissioner Jones to the
effect that the Waldo High school has
been placed in the third grade class
Heretofore the school has held no
rank in state educational circles.
The high school course consists of
two years of study and the graduates
will have the privilege of substituting
the course for the first two years In
any first class high school in the state,
This will enable the Waldo students
to complete their high school course
or college preparatory work In Mari
on without being compelled to con-
sumo any more time.
The excellent feature was accomp-
lished through the efforts of Prof. A..
d. Wells. superintendent of the Wall
do schools. He so arranged the high
school course to compare closely to
the first two years study in the first
class high schools. Then by petit
tioning the state school cmmlssioners s
he succeeded in having the school
classified.
The high school commencement
will be held on May 9Th at which time
seven graduates Will be awarded
diplomas.

LOOKING
FOR A TRUST
Grand Jury Investigates
Cost of Living.
SEVERAL WITNESSES CALLED
Jury May Again be Called
For Duty.
If Evidences OF u Local Combination
Can be Found, Prosecutions Under
the Valentine Law VIII Follow.

That the grand jury empannelled
for the January term of court took up
the question of unlawful sombina-
tions among grocers, meat dealers and
others handling foodstuffs became
known today. The grand jury, 1t is
said, called number of witnesses and
learned some things about which
more is to be asked later.
The prosecuting attorney, Charles L.
Justice has not yet discharged the
jury and the members may be called
Ivestigatlons or to take up any new
cases that arise. 1t Is understood that
when the grand jury next convenes
the subject of high prices of necessi.
ties will be placed under search
light and If 1t is found that there are
combinations in restraint of trade
there will be prosecutions under the
Valentine antitrust act.
In regard to the grand jury's action
nothing can be learned. The grand
Jurors themselves are under oath not
to reveal any of the proceedings oc'
curing in their jury room, nor any
of the testimony given there. The
prosecutor is also, by the oath of his
office, unable to give any informa-
tion on the subject without violating
his oath.
That the matter ever leaked out
was probably through inadvertant
remarks by either witnesses in the
food inquiry which the jury conducted
or by one of the grand jurors. II is
known, however. that there was some
pretty warm talk in the jury room
on the subject of trusts or unlawful
combinations existing in this city and
as far as one Is able to learn with
out direct statement It Is almost
certain the jury is determined to in.
vestigate the matter fully.
Thus far Marion and Marion county
people haye not organized for the
purpose OF defeating combination and
their high prices by refusing to eat
some of the ordinary necessities of
life but dealers state that their sales
have decreased materially and that
doubtless many have refrained of their
own initiative.
That the grand Jury has taken
cognizance of the popular cry. will
doubtless be gratifying to the general
public. If there exists no Illegal com
bination for the isuplift of prices In
Marion or Marion county, then the
public will be satisfied. but II the in
vestigations should disclose such q
or more than one Of
them, then prosecutions, backed by
the strong popular sentiment. woulc
follow.

FIRE LOSSES
VERY SLIGHT
Departments Made Only Three Runs
During January.

The city liremen were not busy dur
ing the month of January. There were
only called out three times. No fires
of any consequence occurred and the
January fire loss was the lightest that
the city has had for many months.
The first call was on January 11th
when the cottage occupied by William
Massie of Cottage street, was con-
sumed. On January 10th, a small
blaze at the home OF Adam Taylor on
north State street, attracted the
firemen's attention. The last call OF
the month was on the twenty sixth
when the Barnhart block was thought
