A coMMENDABLE ACTIVITY.
Evening Wisconsin.

Evening Wisconsin.
Robert Linn, mining promoter, is
on trial in the federal court at Chicago
on charge Of using the mails with in
tent to defraud
The corporation whose shares he dis
posed of was the New Comstock Gold
Mining Company. a Nevada corpora
ton, stocked for ten million dollars. In
his advertising Linn asserted that the
mine had twenty-five million dollars
worth of gold in sight and that mill
lion had been dug out. The govern
ment attorneys declare that the prop
erty is worthless. According to the
postal officials, persons who bought
stock made an investigation and found
that the mine had been under water
twenty years and that Linn did not
even hold title to it. There is not much
difficulty in forecasting the outcome of
Linn's trial before a jury, in case, as
seems probable, these statements con
corning the property in which he dealt
can be substantiated in court.
Scores and hundreds of promoters
with shares of as little value as those
which this man was accustomed to dis
pose of for good money were bustling
all over the land few years ago,
swindlng the public without check.
The activity of the Postoflice Depart
ment in conjunction with the Attorney
Generals office, which has been going
on since soon after President Taft's in
auguration, has sent dozens to the
penitentiary and threatens in the end
to go far toward breaking up thor
oughly dishonest and disreputable bus
mess.

AN UNFAIR DISCRIMINATION.

OF all the old-time evils in the rail.
road business which legislation of re-
cent years has operated to correct the

mass Of shippers was that of secret re

various states have made rules doing
away with this description Of unfair,
burdensome and vicious discrimination.
out it survives in the practice of other
public service corporations in some OF
the states
The Public Service Commission OF
New York has just concluded an in
vestigation which establishes the fol
lowing facts That by secret arrange
ment between landlords and the New
York Edison Company, tenants all over
that city pay approximately twice as
mach for electricity as the Edison Com
pany charges. That to prevent the in
stallation Of private plants and to stihe
competition the company gives land
lords a wholesale rate, as low as Az
cents per klowatt hour. That the
landlord charges the tenant the retail,
or general, " rate Of 10 cents and
pockets the difference. That by this
ingenious scheme some landlords are
making as much as $500 a month out
of their tenants without the tenants
knowledge That wholesale rates are
shaved by the company when it fears
owners of big buildings will install their
own plants.

FIVE THOUSAND AT cAReoNDAlE
POTATO FESTIVAL.
Yields Of Western Slope Fields Thi,
Year Give Farmers Renewed
Hope Of Prosperity.
Western Newspaper uuion News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Glenwood Springs. Colo.-With four.
teen quarters of beef, 5000 baked po-
tatoes. scores of loayes of bread and
gallons OF coffee and other good
things to tempt the appetite, Carbon.
dale celebrated her fourth annual po.
tato festival and was hostess to hun.
dreds of Western Slope people who
entered the festivities with gusto
which comes as a result of the bumper
crops harvested throughout this sec
tion Of the slope.
Never in the history Of Cafbondale
have such crops OF potatoes been gath.
cred in the Roaring Fork valley. An
idea OF the yield is found in the fol.
lowing:
Charles Nov harvested 3G2 sacks OF
10 pounds each from measured acre.
He got $50 sacks an acre from fifteen
acres.
George Sievers loaded eight carloads
Of potatoes from seven acres of his
ranch.
Max Grubb. son of Gene Grubb, the
potato expert. will harvest 100 cars
of fine tubers. Lou and Frank Sweet
will do equally as well from their
fields.
Indications now are that the entire
4,500 acres of potatoes in the Carbon.
dale district will average better than
300 bushels to the acre this year.
The country surrounding Carbondale
Is beehive of activity and potato
diggers and pickers are being pushed
to the limit to get the big crop in
cellars. Twelve pickers on the Grubb
ranch In one day picked 143ls sacks
each. This Is the record for the dis.
trict. and is believed to beat any rec.
ord In the state. Tho men are receiv.
ing 4 cents sack and board for their
work. Fourteen pickers on the Swest
ranch pick l.50O sacks a day.
The potato raisers are putting their
tubers In cellars which hold from
thirty to fifty carloads. They have
shipped several hundred carloads from
the district, but are now holding for
q higher price than Is offered.
But their potato crop is not the only
source Of profit, for forty.five cars Of
cattle were loaded at Redstone, south
Of Carbondale. and ground has already
been secured for the location Of a
Misunderstanding mill which will EN-.
ploy from $50 to 200 men throughout
the year. And Carbondale folks made
merry with feasting. dancing and
street sports, while Rifle and Marble
bands enlivened the affair with con.
certs.
