dustry In Two Weeks.
Special to Times Republican.
Belmond. Feb. 9.-The coal supply Is
getting to be almost alarming. AT
Rowan and Industry there has not
been a car Of coal received In two
weeks There is not a town along the
NJ. & St. L., between Hampton and Al
goua that has a pound OF coal for sale
People have been getting their coal
from neighboring towns where they
could and in some instances have bor-
rowed coal from bins to tide over the
blockade. 1t has been almost impossi-
BILE to keep the road open. but des-
perate effort is now being made to get
coal thru. No freight shipments are
being accepted and agents say there
will not be until the road is able to get
some coal thru. A snow pillow and two
engines have blockaded the track at
Alexandria for several days.

Special to Times Republican.

are late and that it is hardly worth
while to start out on a schedule that
calls for close connections.

SAM H. DAVIDSON DEAD

lng at lew llllllulcS DClolO
o'clock A few hours before ne
was stricken by paralysis and re-
NAMED in an unconscious state
from the time of this attack until
the end came. The burial Tues
day was attended by a great crowd
and was in charge of the Masonic
fraternity.
Sam Houston Davidson was born
near Camden, Tenn, January 70,
1S46 When he was about twenty
years of age his parents moved to
Graves county, KY, and one year
later to DoniphaR Mo, In 1869
the family moved to Evening Shade,
where the parents died, the father
in 1870 and the mother in 1904.
Mr.. Davidson attended the Cam
den, Tenn, Academy until 1851,
when war closed the schools of that
section, after which he pursued his
studies at home until the latter
part of the war when he enlisted
for service, first in the Tenth and
afterward in the Nineteenth Tenn
essee Cavalry, and took part in
many sharp engagements under
Gen. N. B. Forrest in Tennessee,
Kentucky and Mississippi. No
man had a warmer spot in his
heart for the Confederate soldier
than had Mr.. Davidson, and as a
historian of events connected with
the Confederacy he had no equal
in all this country
Mr.. Davidson began to study law
with his father in 1866, and two
years later was admitted to the bar
at DOniphan, Mo. He Immediately
entered the practice after coming
to Evening Shade, in which he con-
tinued actively until only a few
months ago. He stood at the head
of his profession and his services
in legal matters were for many
years sought and relied upon by a
large number of people in this sec
ton Of the state.
In politics Mr., Davidson was a
Staunch democrat and had rendered
his party distinguished services, He
was a member of the house of REP
resentatives in 1858. In 1888,
without any solicitation upon his
part, he was nominated by his party
for state senator from this district
and, after a memorable campaign,
secured a handsome majority over
the strongest man the populists ev-
er had in the entire state perhaps.
In the legislative body he was a
wise leader and some Of the states
best laws in force today were in
troduced by him,
He was for many years a mem
Der of the Methodist church. He
was a member of Evening Shade
Lodge No, 143, F, & A. M, and of
Rural Chapter No, So r, A, M, He
was also a member of the knights
of Honor He was an authority on
Masonry and had held the princi-
pal Offices many times in his home
lodges and in the grand lodges Of
the state as we'll I
Mr. Davidson is survived by the
wife to whom he was marriedIin
1870, and six daughters, Mrs, Milton

The Shunganunga Park.


A friSky young damseI, named Harding,
Rugged out IN a hobbIe SKIRT gown,
Said: "A park on the fair Shunga-
nunga,
I'll give ana bequeath to the town.
And will turn in and improve it,
Said bold, Park Commissioner Stotts,
And make it the fairest and rarest
And finest of all beauty spots"
Then TO- and behold! on the morrow,
The dump carts all over the town,
Piled high with their garbage and
rubbish.
Came Iurching and numbering down,
To that hole in the ground, where
aforetime
The buffaloes waIlowed all day,
While the slime and the ooze of the
ages
Reid tn hunters and trappers at bay.
And there they dumped rags and waste
papers.
Dumped train-loads of rusty tin cans
Dumped tons of old kitchen utensils,
And discarded kettles and pans.
Dumped trash from the lawns anu .-.e
gardens
And streets that were never too clean,
And filth from the Augean stables
That Hercules never had seen.
While heaps of dead animals, sreekin6.
Polluted the soft summer air,
AS tn vultures and cormorants gath
cred
To feast on the carrion there.
And then, on the banks of that bayou
Where still grew some splendid old
trees,
T.ObenpI1la'S kindred J1nhindared
Made cord-wood and kindling of these
And when the foul work of destruction
OF these forest monarchs was done,
The dump carts still came with their
ordure
And left it to rot in the sun.
And hither the plaques of old Egypt,
Eros, lady bugs, Iocusts and lice
Came swarming around this new king
dom
OF vampires, vermin and vice.
While tn stencil from this Garden of
Eden
Went waiting away to the stars
Provoking those wireless warnings
Sent down from the people of Mars.
But the commissioners keep on promis-
ing
That they will improve it some more
If we will renew their election,
And pile up our coin at their door.

UNCLE SAM WINS
Bath Tub Trust Declared Vic.
IatiOn of Sherman Law.
q. s. Supreme Court Sustains
Governments Contention.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-The supreme
court of the United States today de.
| livered a death blow at violations OF
the Sherman antitrust law under the
cloak of the protection of the patent
laws by annulling as invalid license
agreements which held manufacturers
of sanitary enameled ironware to-
! gether in the combination as the bath
| tub trust
Justice McKenna delivered the
unanimous opinion of the court
H said that rights conferred by
patents were extensive but did not
give a universal license against the
positive prohibition of the Sherman
law. The decision fully sustained the
government in its fight begun over
year ago against the bath tub and
enameled ware manufacturers.
The fight against the enameled ware
manufacturers was begun by the gov
eminent in the United States district
court of Maryland, it being charged
that the fifty defendants named had
entered into a combination to restrain
interstate trade in sanitary enameleo
ironware and had attempted to mo-
nopolize that trade. Sixteen of the de-
PENDANTS were corporations. One or
the individual defendants was Edwin
L. Wayman, with whom the corporate
defendants and their officials were
charged with having entered into il
legal agreements, in effect licenses, for
the use of a patented enameling tool
Wayman was to refund part of the
not violated any conditions of the
agreement, among these conditions
being one that they would not sell to
any jobber who does not sign a con-
tract not to buy from any one other
than the corporate defendants; and
another that they would not sell at
lower price or on more attractive
terms than those named in a schedule
of prices attached to the agreement.
The lower court had said that the
agreement destroyed competition, fixed
prices in violation of the Sherman
law, and furthermore that the patent
on the tool made the agreem ents I'M
lawful The lower court prohibited
the defendants from attempting fur
Their to restrain trade by means of
these agreements pronounced illegal.
Justice McKenna in announcing the
decision of the supreme court called
attention to the effectiveness of the
combination made possible among
enamel ware manufacture rs through !
Wayman's plan to grant licenses on his
Improvement for enameling.
The decision marked an epoch in
antitrust decisions because it sustain
ed the governments contention that a
violation OF the Sherman antitrust law
could not be concealed behind the
patent laws of the country. The de-
cision of the lower court was upheld
throughout as to the main defendants
and the Colwen Lead company which
claimed it was not engaged in inter- j
state commerce.
