FREE Shipments
CEASE new YEARS

HETTINGER. Jan. 2.-County Aud
itor Kelley has received notice that
the Milwaukee railway company will
positively not make any more free
shipments of hay or feed after Jan
uary /. This means that many who
have ordered lay will not be able to
get it, at least not without paying
the freight, and even if one is in po-
sition to do this it is difficult mat
ter to get orders for hay filled. Mr..
Kelley, who has charge of the feed
and hay business at this point. has
certainly had a difficult time of 1t
between the company and the set
tiers. The company kept tightening
up on the proposition with new rules;
hay could scarcely be bought at all
at reasonable price; and every. man
who ordered hay wanted it. and want
ed it first, as is human nature. Thus
with these conditions confronting
him, Kelley has had no rest for the
past three months. Both day and
night during this time he has been
called upon to look after the propo-
sitlon and although he did the best
ne could do, many people who were
unable to get their hay or feed, will
be dissatisfied. 1t has been a thank
less task and a difficult one. Not
only this but it has kept the auditor
from doing his usual office work
practically all fail. Undoubtedly III
the commissioners had known the
amount Of work that would be In
volved in the feed business they
would have employed someone else
and left the auditor in his Office. Few
people however realized three
months ago that there would be such
a demand for feed; that it would be
so difficult to buy this feed; or that
it would involve omuch actual time
and labor.

SUES OPPONENT FOR
AMOUNT Of Check

BOWBELLS, Jan. 2.-The Justice
case in which G. L. Bickford was
pNaintiff and A. X. Wnge, defendant,
was decided against Vinge. The con-

dated week ahead and given some
time ago. The money was not de-
posted at the proper time and Vinge
redeemed it. Then it passed into other
hands. Vinge thinks it was stolen
from him and placed in Bickfords
hands for collection. Vinge is now
suing for the amount of the check and
costs of the action and has garnished
his opponents bank account.

The relation of Big Business to
human souls was shown in a story
told in the Desplaines street court
by girl yesterday.
The name of the girl does not
matter. She is trying to do right,
and there is no use in blackening
her name.
The girls home was in Strea-
tor, Ill. One year ago her father
and mother died. They left her
penniless.
There was no work for girls in
Streator, so the girl came to. Chi
cago, which she had heard of as
the city of boundless opportunity.
She got a job here at the Fair
department store, for which for
long and wearying labor she was
paid the truly regal salary" of
S. week.
She struggled along for three
months, and only girls who have
tried to feed and clothe and house
themselves on SIS a week can truly
appreciate what that meant.
Winter was coming on, and
that meant carfare, and new
shoes, and many other additional
expenses. Also, her clothes were
becoming too shabby to suit the
aristocratic Fair management.
The girl cast desperately
around for a better paying job.
After many efforts she at last got
one at the National Biscuit Co.,
which paid her. SO week.

was wealth untold and that all her

! So was not so very much, and
that even at the National Biscuit
Co. it was necessary to wear
clothes that were at least neat.
The girl struggled bravely on.
By undertaking she contrived to
get some sort of clothes, to at
least exist even if she did not live.
And then one day she met one
of those men whom the vice COM
mission refers to as "men with
out either a spark of honor or
bravery, who hunt as their unlaw-
full prey this impoverished girl,
this defenseless CHILD of pow
erty, unprotected, unloved and
uncared for, men who are so low
that they have lost even their
sense of craftsmanship, and who
seek as their game an underfed,
a tired, and a lonely girl
So yesterday the girl was pick
ed up by two detectives from the
Desplaines street station. She
told her story to Police Captain
Meagher. He investigated it and
found it true.
When the girl was taken before
Judge Torrison she told her story
again. Judge Torrison fined her
$500. Later he cut this to 500.
Perhaps it would be we'll if
Judge Torrison also should study
the report of the vice commission.
In reference to this fning system,

This rapid increase In exports of
automobiles from the United States Is
In part due to the rapid development
of the domestic industry, In part to
the growing use of vehicles Of this
character throughout the world. In
1908 the exports of automobiles from
France. the United States, the United
Kingdom, Germany, and Italy, the
leading manufacturers of automobiles,
aggregated 45 million dollars, and In
1910, but two years later. had grown
to 70 million. In 1900 the value of
automobiles manufactured In the Unit
ed States was million dollars: in
1905, 80 million; and in 1909. 249 mil
lion. That the increased consumption
of automobiles in this country Is be-
ing more and more supplied by ma
chimes of domestic manufacture may
be inferred from the fact that imports
have greatly decreased during period
In which production has grown from
8 million to nearly $50 million dollars.
France Is the chief source of auto
mobiles imported into the United
States. The imports from that coun-
try, however. in common with those
from other countries, are decreasing
