A Fine Lumber Yard.

The T. w. Ballew Lumber Co. are
Just completing the finishing touches
to the remodeling of their big lum-
bcr yard in this city, and they will
have one of the finest and most
modern lumber yards in this part of
the state. The entire yard has been
remodeled and now occupies the en-
tire half block of ground, the resi-
dence which formerly occupied a
part of the ground having been sold
and removed. All the old sheds
were torn down and replaced with
new. sheds, the entire yard now be-
ing under cover, and that part which
is not covered with the new sheds
will be enclosed with high fence.
AL of the sheds and the fence will
be painted a dazzling white, and the
new yard is a credit and ornament
to the business section of Leon. The
Leon yard is under the management
of D. L. Twyman, and since he took
charge of The business it has steadily
increased and Mr.. Twym2n insisted
that the company mako some M
provements on their property in
this city. The result is that they
have spent in the neighborhood of
$4,000 in improving their property
in this city. The new sheds will be
a great improvement and accommO-
dation to their patrons, as all lumber
and other material is kept in the
dry, and teams are loaded under

was brisk and the stock all sold we'll,
practically all of it being purchased

in this part of the country. The
sale amounted to over $4,000,
horses selling up to $3.50 a team,

New Court Cases.

J. M. Gill VS.. A. e. Price. The
plaintiff brings suit for $4,000 for
damages which he alleges he sus-
tanned by reason of the fact that de-
fendant without any cause or justi-
fication whatever filed an informa-
tion before A. L. Belding, justice
of the peace at Van Vert charging
plaintiff with the crime of drunken
ness. That he was arrested by an
officer and on the hearing the plain
tiff was discharged. That defendant
knew at the time he filed the infor-
nation that plaintiff had been guilty
of no crime and that his sole pur-
pose in doing SO was to harass and
disgrace plaintiff in the esteem OF
his neighbors. That at the time
plaintiff was under arrest defendant
through his malice and vicious dis
position pointed out plaintiff to by
ISLANDERS and friends and relatives
as criminal and asserted he was a
common drunkard and that he in
tended to have him convicted and as
soon as court convened he intended
to file complaint against him and
have him sentenced to the inebriate
asylum as an inebriate. He alleges
this was done for the sole purpose of
humiliating him. Marion Woodard,
attorney for plaintiff.

TRUTH ABOUT TIE TRUST
Expected Economies from comhina-
ton" Do Net Materialize.

fLouis D. BraEdeis in Coliier's.1
Leaders of the new Third Term)
party argue that Industrial monopo-
lies should be legalized. lest we lose
the efficiency of large-scale production
and distribution. No argument could
be more misleading.
1t may be safely asserted that IN
America there is no line of business
in which all or most concerns or
plants must be concentrated in order
to attain the size of greatest effi-
cheney. For while a business may be
too small to be efficient efficiency does
not grow indefinitely with increasing
size. What the most efficient size is
can be learned definitely only b. ex-
perienee. The unit of greatest efii-
cheney is reached when the disadyan-
tages of size counterbalance the ad-
vantages. The unit of greatest eff
cheney Is exceeded when the disad-
vantages of size outweigh the advan-
tages The history of American trusts
makes this clear That history shows:
First-No conspicuous American
trust owes it's existence to the desire
for increased efficiency Expected
economies from combination" figure
largely in promoters prospectyses;
but they have never been a COMPEL
ing motive in the formation of any
trust. On the contrary, the purpose Of
combining has often been to curb ef1-
cheney or even to preserve ineff1-
cheney, thus frustrating the natural
law of the survival Of the fittest
Second-No conspicuously profita-
BILE trust owes its profits largely TO
superior efficiency. Some trusts have
been very efficient, as have some in
dependent concerns; but conspicuous
profits have been secured mainly
through control of the market
through the power of monopoly to fix
prices-through this exercise OF the
taxing power.
Third-No conspicuous trust has
been efficient enough to maintain long
as against the Independents it's pro-
portion of the business of the country
without continuing to buy up, from
time to time, its successful competi-
tors.
