Movement for Repeal Of the Antitrust
But now that the antitrust act Is
seen to be effective for the accomplish
ment of the purpose of its enactment.
we are met by cry from many differ
ent quarters for its repeal. 1t Is said
to be obstructive of business progress,
to be an attempt to restore old-fash-
toned methods of destructive competi'
ton between small units. and to make
impossible those useful combinations
of capital and the reduction of the cost
OF production that are essential to con-
tinued prosperity and normal growth.
In the recent decisions the Supreme
court makes clear that there Is moth

The complaint is made of the statute
that 1t is not sufficiently definite in

its violation. The suggestion is, that
we may have combination of two

NEW LAW FIRM.
E. r. Juckett and p. F. Ward Form
Partnership the First Of the Week.

q. r. Juckett, who has been practic-
ing law in this city for the past seven
teen years. and who by the way is one
of the best known attorneys in the
Southern Hills, formed partnership
the first of the week with p. +. Ward,
a popular young attorney who came
here recently from Omaha.
Mr.. Juckett's practice has been
steadily increasing and Mr.. Ward first
came here as an assistant. He has
made himself such valuable man that
they decided partnership would be
mutually beneficial.
Mr.. Juckett is q graduate of Norwich
University, Northfield, Vermont, and
was admitted to practice in South
Dakota in 1891. He fret located in
Buffalo Gap where he practiced two
years. He then moved to this city
where he has since been located. He
held the position of county Judge for
five years and served as states attorney
for two years, refusing re-nomina-
ton. 1t is said of him that he was one
of the best states attorneys this county
has ever had. His practice consists
largely in civil law and he is q good
authority in that line.
Mr.. Ward is graduate of Creighton
University College of Law at Omaha,
and has been admitted to practice In
the supreme court of Nebraska and
the supreme court of South Dakota.
The new hrm will do general law
practice and will be located after
September 1st in their new office in
the Postoffice Block.

On table in the room where Stevens
was found was note written on an
envelope. On the one side was written
"Mr. johnson, please turn deed and
will over to my wife,. On the other
was this message, "If other people
would have left me and my wife alone,
there never would have been nothing
of this". 1t seems that the unfortunate
man had been having some family
trouble and took the matter very much
to heart. Being an old man seventy
one years of age he was at times some-
what irresponsible.
The funeral occurred Saturday in
Edgemont and the remains were laid
to rest in the Edgemont cemetery.
The deceased is survived by wife and
one son.

In spite of the efforts made by the

only to find it full to the limit.
Such disappointments could be
avoided if applicants would only make
