PACKERS PLEA OF"NOT
GUILTY" IS HUMOROUS


There is something almost hui
morous in the pleas of not guilty
to criminal restraint of trade en-
tered by those innocent babes of
industry-the packers.
Yesterday afternoon, thirteen
contracts handed in as evidence
by the packers own attorney by
which the indicted innocents
bought out thirteen annoying
competitors were read to the jury.
Each and everyone of these
contracts stipulated that the in
terests bought should not engage
in the packing industry for IS
years.
These contracts, with their con-
venient little stipulation. are still
in force, and will be until March,
1918.
Not being lawyers, and not be-
ing conversant with the some
hundreds of thousands of fool de-
cisions by courts of appeal which
doubtless have bearing on the
matter, we cannot say whether or
not the contracts read yesterday
afternoon are legal" proof of the
guilt of the packers.
We don't suppose they are. We
suppose, for one thing, that the
statute of limitations enters into
the thing.
The contracts are still in force,
but the actual signing of the con-
tracts took n1ace MANY wears aOo

in the actual signing.

III the actual signing. .-r
But the average citizen IS apt
to draw his own conclusions from
the testimony offered at the trial.
And being untroubled with
those legal niceties and technical
tiles which enable wealthy gentle
men to walk right UP TO the doors
of the penitentiary and then turn
right around and walk away
again, he figures simply.
The packers bought up all their
competitors. In doing so, they
forced those competitors. to agree
not to do any more competing for
IS years. The packers are re-
straining trade.
And when law shark tells the
average citizen that he is mistak-
en-, and that, as a matter of fact,
the packers have done does not
legally constitute restraint of
trade, the average citizen comes
to the sad conclusion that his
brain is Woody and that he does
not know the meaning of the
words restraint of trade"
The thing that prevents the
average citizen seeing anything
highly humorous in the situation
is the way he gets it in the neck
when he goes marketing.

years had been editor of several New England papers,
notably the Worcester Spy. After considerable cor
respondence we engaged Mr.. Thomas for the position
of editor-in-chief of the Omaha Tribune.
In une. 1870, the prospectus of the Tribune was
issued and the announcement made that the paper
would be published every afternoon, except Sundays
and it's first copy to appear Monday, July %.
In due time Mr.. Joseph Hail. with his Monitor job
printing plant landed in Omaha and was installed in
very commodous quarters in what was then the most
portion of the city, the west side of Four

die of July everything ready to begin pubca-

About that time a literary genius by the name of
Harry Gerald drifted into Omaha and was added to
the editorial staff. Harry Gerald Irishman by
birth and had held lieutenant's commission in the
British army in India. He polished writer and
had served an apprenticeship with William Cullen
Bryant on the New York Post and with Horace Gree

the impeachment of Governor David Butler, in which

Redfied Bros Job printers, for the type and press

On Monday morning, June 10, 1871, Harry Ger

At the end of the first page, in large black type ap

WELL" said Gerald, why not call it The Bee.
That would also be suggestive The Bee gives honey

all this may become newspaper and you might want
