dition Of Society.

the very best chat has ever been held
in the county. There was net an ex-
ceptionaly large attendance, but
everything was business Hke from
the very beginning. A revision of the
list of locals showed forty or more
active locals in the county. The mem-
bership of these will probably show
considerable increase over last year,

Gals than We had in the county dur

calls have been revived during this
year. No tendency 10 the extreme
was shown in the deliberations of the
meetings and a business like spirit
prevailed during is entire ses-
sion.
The report of the Stock Committee
showed that a greater degree of sue
cess had been attained in the ship
ment of stock during the past few
months than at any other rtime in its
history. The farmers of the county
are to be congratulated upon being
permitted the services of such emil
nently qualified men as are serving
ON the Stock Committee.
A poultry department. was organi-
zed with much enthusiasm and this
was also placed in the hands of our
efficient stock committee.
The report of the Treasurer showed
.hat the expenditures for the year
had been kept within the bounds of
cur income, Notwithstanding vhe fact
that we have paid THREE graders dur
ing the recent .obacco deliveries in
Stead of one as heretofore.
The report of he Telephorh Com
mittee showed that Articles of Incor-
poIaion have been drafted. eHecuted
and recorded in the office of the Coun
ty Clerk and Secretary of State
ard the company is now in position
to do business on a legitimate basis.
1t also showed tina. considerable ad-
vaacement has been made in the way
of establishing new Lines and exchanges
in the county.
Strong resolutions with a ring of
business in each word We're adopted.
The United Mine Workers CT Ameri-
ca were endorsed in their attempt to

that in the near future there was
splendid prospects for greater advance
ment along this line.

COL. COOPER FREED
BY GOV. PATTERSON.
Supreme Court Grants New
Trial To His Son
Robin.

Governor NJ. r. Paterson, of Ten
nessee issued a pardon to Colonel Dun
can B. Cooper Tuesday after the Su-
preme Court of Tennessee had af-
firmed the decision Of The lower court
which gave Col. Cooper twenty years
in the penitentiary fer the murder of
Ccrmack. At The same time the
court harded down the decision in
Col. Cooper's case, it set aside the
verdict in the case OF Robin Cooper
and he will therefore undergo new
trial at some future date. The entire
State of Tennessee is divided and
worked up over the matter to an eX-
tent which Injuries it to a remarka-
BILE degree and places it somewhat in
the same condition as Kentucky was
in some years ago over the Goebel
murder and prosecutions incident
thereto. Governor Patterson and the
Coopers have strong backing in the
State ard the Democratic patry is
torn asunder owing to the fact that
the Governor is a Democrat and of a
different faction to that which ex-
Senator Cormack belonged. 1t is
thought that serious trouble will yet
result and that the end of che whole
matter may be yet far distant in the
future.

TRUST CASES
GO over
Long Delay Probably CauS-
ed By Death.
Supreme Court Reassigns For
Argument Standard Oil and
Tobacco Suits.

Washington April 1.-THE SUI
preme Court of the United States to-
day re-assigned for argument the
cases of the United States against
the American Tobacco Company and
the Standard Oil Company.
The argument of these cases comes
as the direct result of the death Of
Justice Brewer, who died few days
after the Standard Oil case had been
argued.
As. Justice Moody was unable to
attend these cases, sonly seven JUS
tices were Left to give a decision.
How the court was divided in re-
gard to the decision in these cases is
still as much a mystery hits afternoon
as before the assignment of the cases
for reargument.
1t is believed, however, that the
court was evenly divided or Amos;
so and that 1t probably was 10th to
give to the country decision which
was not supported by a majority of
a full court. Such majority would
be five members.
The fact Uhat the corporation tax
cases we've not set for reargument
is taken to mean that a decision
will be announced in regard to the
corstftutionalfy of the law author
izing 1T within short time.
The re-aseiignment of the big suits
came as a complete surprise. Such
a re-asSignment was anticipated by
some last Monday, when the court
met after the dea:h of Justice Brewer,
When it was not forthcoming at that
time, it wac generally believed that
decisions of the cases would be an
nounced soon.
Attorney General Wickersham was
as much surprised as any enc at the
sudden turn in the fight against thege
corpcratiorS. He expressed his utter
ignorance Of any further knowledge
of the action of the court ether Jhan
the announcement of Chief Justice
Fuller THAI "Nos. 316 and 317, the
American Tobacco Company VS.. the
United States and the United States
W. the American Tobacco Company
and No. 725, the Standard Oil Com
pany, of New Jersey, VS.. she United
States are restored to ther places
on the docket for reargrment."
Unless a motion 10 advance the
cases is made they will net come VI
in the regular order of business for
nearly a year. 1t is REGARDED as I'M
probable that such motion fer reargu-
ment before next term viii be made
Only three more weeks of this term
remain for hearing the argument OF
cases, although the court has come
In before dts adjournment, about the
frs. of June, to hear arguments i'm a
particular case.
inc tilcCI vi ulc lcsti Suiutsilt Will
doubtless be To have the successor
OF Justice Brewer, whomsoever he
may be, participate in consideration
OF theEe cases. The choice of the
successor may be made more diff
cult ON account of to-day's compAica-
tion Solicitor General Bowers has
been mentioned prominently for the
vacancy, and now the questions aIdsss
as TO whether he would be eligible to
sit In the argument of these cases, as
did Attorney Gneeral Wickersham, but
opinion is divided as to whether II
would be in good form for him TO sit
In Judgment because of his advisory
position in the Department OF JUS
tice.
