upon, but Osborn backed out Mr.
Wolfe said all the talk by Mr.. St2nton
and his associates was simply idle;
that if they really were sincere they
would have done business months ago.
He denied unqualifiedly that there was
any alliance of his company with the
Central Union. c. L. Walker, VINO had
acted as attorney during the foreclo-
sure proceedings on the Union Elec-
trio properties corroborated Mr.. Wolfe
E. u. Burns, who has been in the &c
cal telephone field several years, SAID
that his associates had been hood
winked by two promoters, Bills ana
WORKMAN, who built the Union Elec-
trio properties upon an impossible n
nancial basis, and that it was his op1n-
ion that Stanton was in the same class
as Bills and Workman. He believed
that if Stanton secured control OF the
plants it would be a repetition OF the
experiences through which Mr.. Stuck
err and his friends had passed. Mr..
Burns, answering charges of extor-
tionate rates exacted by the Central
Union here, showed by data that the
people of Rock Island today, with
eight times as many connections, were
paying less for service to that COM
pany than they were paying 20 years
ago.
Can't Cover Promises.
Mr.. Stanton said that he represent
ed men with means and men who were
sincere in their negotiations here. He
was an engineer and had built ia in
dependent exchanges, all of which had
proved successes. Mr. Sucker said
his position was unchanged. He sim
ply wanted to see real money. He had
wearied of listening to a lot OF pro-
moter's talk. While his word was not
final he assured the council that if Mr..
Stanton and his hackers laid down
cash, any recommendation that he
might make would probably have
weight. He felt that the council could
Judge for itself which side was acting
in good faith and which was not Mr..
Sucker said the owners of the Union
Electric were not turning over their
property for uncertain securities.
They were doing business on a cash
basis only They had repeatedly made
that statement, and Mr.. Stanton ought
to know by now that he could not pur-
chase with promises.
Mayor Says "show U.s.
At the conclusion of the discussion,
Mayor G. w. McCaskrin presented a
message reviewing the situation, and
that the whole question
be laid over He advocated submit
ting to a referendum vote of the peo-
pie the proposition to sell to the Cen
trail Union, the city to receive fixed
compensation for allowing the trans
fer and the subscribers of the Union
Electric to be guaranteed a continu-
ance of the rates they were paying at
present He also pointed to the ne
cessity for providing country service.
He reminded Mr. Stanton and his back
ers If they expected consideration at
the hands of the council they would
have to put their proposition in writ
ing and support it with a certified
check. That was the best way TO con-
vince the aldermen they were in good
faith. 1.-The motto of this council al
wavs has been and continues to be
Show us" concluded the mayor. The
message was received and ordered

Getting Ready to Retire

Washington. D. G. June 23--After
thirty-seven years on the Supreme
Court bench Justice Marshall Harlan is
preparing TO retire, according 10 a we'll
founded report here. For more than a
year Justice Harlan has been planning
TO step aside. His son. James 3 Har-
Ian is d member of the Interstate Com
merce Commission and is expected TO
become a Judge of the new commerce
court. Justice Harlan is anxious TO
see his son elevated to this new honor.
It is no secret in Washington that
there have been efforts afoot to retire

Fuller for several years. There has
been much argument for a younger
court. But President Roosevelt quit
the Presidency without getting the
chief justice retired, and President
Taft has abandoned hope in that direc-
ton.

BELLENIEW

Belleview. June EVERY many are
hoping that our Legislature will recog
nize the fact that hogs running at large
are a nuisance from which property
owners in the towns and very many
farmers ask protection. The streets
and walks Of the towns are rooted up
by the hogs. and the fieas they leave in
the streets are pest. They get on
peoples clothes and are carried into
their houses to torment all in the
house The hog will root under and
break through fences, destroying crops
that have cost hard labor and money to
raise. and YOU can get no redress. The
lawful fence a described in the stat
uteS of the state. would cost as much
or more than the buildings on most Of
the farms. If you find hogs destroying
your corn. peanuts. beans. etc. you
must be careful not TO injure one OF
them: if you do. you are liable to be
arrested You must get the women and
children to help chase and drive them
out. and keep on fixing your fences, for
hog. after he has once got into your
field. will keep trying to get in again,
and Will induce others to do the same.
