TRAMWAY WILL 60
 OUT WILLOW STREET

Instead of entering Otter street on the western side of the town as was originally announced, it is now given out that the Mutchler Bros. tramway for which they are now securing the necessary timber will be built straight out from the foot of Willow street along the main highway as used last winter. It will pass straight out for perhaps half mile, or until the lakes are past when it will bear to the west towards the old route laid out.
 This arrangement, which seems very satisfactory in every way, will obviate the conflict that was anticipated if both the Mutchler road and the Robe tram

MT, and Mrs. LynCh'S
 Infant Son Buried

Attended by many friends of the bereaved parents, funeral services were held at Smiths undertaking par lors in this city Thursday forenoon at Il o'clock over the remains of the in- fant son of Mir and Mrs. Herbert Lynch of Flat creek, which died shortly after birth early Wednesday morning.
 Owing to the critical illness of the mother neither parent could be present but all arrangements were completed by Mir. A. B. Ferguson, who brought the body of the child to the city. Short services were held both at the parlors and at the grave, with sacred songs by Mrs. F. NJ. Dunham.
 Although still quite i'll. Mrs. Lynch Is thought to be out of danger, and both she and Mr. Lynch are anxious to extend their most grateful thanks to those thoughtful friends whose hearts were with them in their hour of bereavement.

To Bridge Otter in Front of Flat

With a subscription of 5000, the citizens of Flat have been getting busy during the past week and are about to begin work on bridge which is to be thrown across Otter creek on the gov ernment road and just above the mouth of Cottonwood. The committee in charge of the work, Messrs. Hussey, Carter, Snyder and Connolly have practically raised all the money and accepted bid for the immediate com mencement of the work.
 The enterprise is a striking illus tration of the spirit of Flat and promises a big convenience for the travelling public this summer. Besides i, puts the kibosh on the om mnipresent ferry man.
 Although doubtless unnecessary in the later season, a bridge is all to the merry during high water and is always a great convenience. Besides it will be good place to stand on moonlight nights.

LUMBER DEALERS
SUED IN DENVER
Colorado and Wyoming As.
sociation Charged With
Being Member Of Trust

Denver. Sept. 27-The government
has filed SUIT against the Colorado
and Wyoming Lumber Dealers as
sociation, the Western bureau of the
lumber trust 1t charges a conspiracy
in restraint of trade. an unholy al
lance between the dealers of the
West, both big and little, and the
use Of the blacklist and the boycott
to throttle competitors and drive them
out of business. The complaint says
that the combination was formed to
eliminate competition between the
manufacturer, the wholesaler and the
retailer in the lumber trade and to
unreasonably restrain interstate COM
merce.
Louis l.. Heilman, with offices in
the chamber of commerce building.
is secretary of the association and will
be served with an injunction as soon
as Federal Judge r. f. Lewis re-
turns from Montrose. Heilman and
H. H. Hemenway. former secretary
of the Colorado and Wyoming asso-
citation. were indicted in Chicago as
part of the governments national
campaign against the lumber trust
The suit is the first invasion of the
West by the department of justice
and similar suits are to be filed in
Oregon, Washington, Montana and
California.
The Colorado suit charges that a
blacklist against all of the dealers who
have stood out against the combine in
Colorado and Wyoming has existed
for a period of eight years.
The complaint says that the con-
spiracy permitted the combination to
eliminate all competition except as be-
tween the retail yards for the trade of
the contractor and builder and the
ultimate consumer of lumber and
lumber products. The consumer was
forced to buy lumber and its products
from the merchants who are men,
bers of the combination at trust re-
tail prices regardless of the amount
of lumber used by the consumer.
Before the combination, says the
complaint, the consumer could buy
from the wholesalers and manufac-
turers at much lower prices than he
could before the "b1acklist" and the
trust price was established.
The Colorado and Wyoming asso-
ciattion was organized in 1902 and
composed of lumber yard dealers of
Colorado. Wyoming and New Mex
leo. New Mexico was dropped out of
the combination in 1908. and it was
incorporated under the laws of Col
orado.

were merely made to sign paper to
the effect that they would support the

COMMERCIAL CLUB
DISCUSSES NEWSPAPER.

Inc NeOtd AOfIlIllcTCldl AIuD HcIQ
a meeting Tuesday evening at which
the principal matter OF discussion
was the present newspaper situation.
We know his, not that any report
of the meeting was submitted for pub
lication, but because letter regard
ing our own case was received yes
terday.
We are asked to outline our policy
for the future. Provided the paper
is continued as before, the club mem
bers will all put their shoulder to the
wheel and help in any way posi-
BILE" Nothing is said of the aid we
may expect, should it seem necessary
to continue as at present for time.
Our policy, was outlined in the last
issue-not policy of personal ca
price, but one forced upon US by cir
cumstances, which we hope may be
altered. Also, last week we stated a
way in which, at no expense to any,
one, the News could be helped mater
tally. The commercial Club letter
contained no item of news, and up to
the present none have been receiv-
ed from any of the members.
Now this is intended only as
statement of fact, and is in no way
suggestion that anything different
might have been expected 1t is a
simple discussion of a public matter;
for newspaper and commercial
club are both public enterprises, more
than private. The Club is interested
in the best thing for Keota, because
the best thing for Keota is also the
best thing for its individual members.
Likewise. the publisher of The News
has the same interest in the local
welfare. for it is by the prosperity of
community that newspaper
thrives.
We should like nothing better than
to devote our entire time to the News.
However, Mr.. Hammond gave all, or
the greater part, of his to the enter
prise and was forced to abandon it
for lack of sufficient support. We
see no indication at present that the
case would be different with us. By
the present arrangement we can have
the paper printed more cheaply at
Fort Collins than we could do it at
Keota-not without a direct financial
loss each week, bat at smaller loss
of time and money than would other
wise be necessary. Granting that the
present arrangement is best under the
circumstances, then the essential
thing is that every person turn in
as much copy for the publication as
possible, until someone can be induc-
ed to look after this feature of the
business. How about the next issue?
Mr.. Stanley will be in Keota Sat
urday, October 2. Could not meet
ing of the Commercial Club and other
interested citizens be called for that
evening, to the end that thorough
understanding may be had of news
paper costs and obligations.
