court Of Williams county Saturday eve
ming on the charge of horse stealing.
He will make a motion for another

The editor of the Farm, Sense, of
Des Moines, Iowa, devotes considera-
BILE space to Square deal' as delat-
ling to the citizens and retailers. of a
community. The article voices the
sentiments of the Inter-Ocean. The
article in part is as follows: z r.
In the beginning let me say to you
that I have no quarrel to pick with a
mail order concern that transacts bus
mess on the square. On the other
&and. 7 have no excuse to offer for a
retailer who defrauds his customer,
but, ] want you to know that l. stand for
the community and for that eommuni-

lieve that all things being equal, Il be-
moves you, Mr.. Reader, to do your
share in building up that community u
you know and knew, that The
merchants Of your heme town, with
but few exceptions, are henest, pains
taking and careful BUSINESS aaen and
in many many Instances they are yotA.

entitled to a living in this world and
some Of the good things, too provided
they get them honestly and fairly.
And remember that there are taxes
to be paid for the maintenance 81
roads and the building and support
Of schools !; and without exception, the
business men and the owners of city
property always pay their share in tax.
Ies for the support Of these things in a
community. This is not true Of man
who conducts "a mail order business
even if5it is conducted on the square
and let me say to YOU, and let me say
without fear Of cont ction, mail or
