service The Journal commands.
Both day and night service of the

nal to present news service that
will surely satisfy any reader.
There is nothing yellow about The
Journal. It's news can be relied
upon. Especial attention is given
to the market page containing the
gossip and prices Of grain, stocks
and produce, including the Elgin
butter and cream market. This
feature alone makes The Journal
Invaluable to farmers and stock
men.

W. G. Cook, who is drawing a

lector, a position he holds thru the
good graces of Senator Gamble,
seems to be devoting a considera-
BILE of his time to paying back the
obligations he owes to his creator,
if we are to judge by the frequent
interviews he is giving out. The
conditions would not be 80 bad if
his interviews were little more
reliable, but when he reports a
conversation with some one, giving
time and place, and that ,person
later denies the whole thing and
shows that at the time he was not

that Cook isn't earning his salary.

The state election in Maine which
was held last Monday was chiefly
interesting on account of the vote
taken on the repeal of the prohibi-
ton clause in the constitution.
The state has had prohibition since
1857 and since 1884 it has been a
constitutional provision. The vote
Monday was very close, SO close
that the result is still in doubt, but
the indications are that the repeal
has lost by small majority.

The Wells Fargo Express COM
pany seems to have been caught in
it's own trap for once. The South
Dakota railroad commissioners
formulated new schedule of rates
based upon q reduction of about
80 per cent. which they ordered
the company to put into force.
The company applied to Judge
Willard, of the federal court of
Minneapolis, for an injunction re-
straining the commissioners from
enforcing the new rates, on the
grounds that these rates would not
give them a reasonable income on
their investment. It appears that
this same company appeared be.
fore Judge Willard only short
time ago asking for relief from
what it claimed was exorbitant
assessment. The testimony then
produced showed that the total
taxable property in the state would
not exceed $4,000, and its other
property would not exceed $4,000,
making total of $4,000. When
the last case was brought the Judge
turned to his files and did d little
figuring. He found that by taking
the company's own estimation of
its valuation, and allowing a net
profit of seven per .cent. on its in
vestment, it would only have to
realize net profit of $1,12O per
year. The court therefore politely
informed the attorneys for the COM
pany that he did not think the new
rates would reduce the net es.rn-
ings of the company below $l,12O
per year, and he would refuse to
grant tho injunction.

TO REDUCE HIGH
COST OF LIVING
Combine Effected to Eliminate
MiddIeman.
TO ACT AS CLEARING HOUSE
Thousands Of Heads of Families, Re-
tail Dealers and Farmers Banded
Together to Reduce Food Prices.

New York Ten thousand heads OF
families, 500 retail dealers in so lines
and several hundred farmers of the
Pennsylvania State Grange, have COM
bined in an association here to elimi-
nate the middle man and lower the
high cost of living. While the Penn
sylvania State Grange is completing
negotiations with the association to
handle their output, small army of
canvassers is enrolling hundreds OF
other families in the movement, and
officers of the association are negotiat-
ing with the farmers of New York
State to handle their products also.
The association plans to act as a
clearing house between producer and
consumer, dividing between them the
profits Of the various middle men
through whose hands food commodi-
ties have hitherto passed. In the case
of some farm products, the associa-
ton finds that six middlemen or brok-
ers have been reaping profits before
the products reach the consumer. The
500 dealers in almost every line of re-
Itil LIduG are u0ulU0AS VI IAC 0S6OSAd-
ton and receive their supplies, be-
cause of such membership. at lower
than market rates. The heads of fam
lilies are associate members.
The 500 dealers are divided into
seven groups. Each group is requir-
ed to pay into the Golfers of the asso-
citation a percentage of its gross re-
ceipts, varying from 6 per cent. for
grocers to Is per cent. for druggists
The fund thus created is divided into
six parts, four of which are put aside
for distribution among the consum-
ers, one part being spent for advertis-
ing and one part for administration
and operating expenses.
Each association member or head of
family, receives coupon from the
dealer whenever he makes a pur-
chase, setting forth the amount of
goods bought. At the end of stated
periods the consumer surrenders his
coupons to the association to serve as
basis for computing the rebate
which he will receive from the profit
fund. 1t is the plan to reduce the
cost of living by these refunds rather
than by charging the consumer lower
than market prices IN the first
instance.
