DISCRIMINATORY
COTTON GIN MEN
GIN OWNERS CHARGED WITH
FIXING PRICES PAID FOR COT
TON-RESTRAINT OF TRADE.

Guthrie, Okla, June 14-On Mon
day the Logan county district court
will begin the hearing of the Famous
cotton gin" cases, which were begun
in 1909 by Attorney General West,
at the order of the governor. There
is a long list of defendants, including
W. II. Coyle, the w. II. Coyle Con-
solidated company, F. E. Houghton'
r. A. Vose OF Kansas City, w. U.
CaNchorn, +. Cook, A. T. Beunting,
Houghton & Douglass and the South
western Cotton Oil company.
The defendants were owners or gins
and cotton warehouses over the coun-
ty. and they are charged under the
state law of conspiring to fix ana
maintain the ginning prices and the
prices ON cotton and of discrlmlnat-
ing in their prices in favor OF those
growers who would agree to sell their
lint to them and against the growers
who wanted the cotton ginned ana
baled for their own benefit. AT the
trial four years ago it was shown In
court that such determinations were
common the prices being $3.50 a bale
to the patrons OF the concerns anu 9'
to those who insisted on selling their
line when and where they pleased.
At the first trial Judge Huston held
that the section of the state law was
indefinite and uncertain as it falled
to define what IAN agreement in re-
straint of trade" really consists of.
He also ruled that the indictment was
bad in that no date was therein men
toned as to when there was any acts
of restraint of trade. The state ap-
pealed the case to the court of crimi-
nal appeals, and there Judge Furman
held that the law was good and the
indictment valid. The case was re-
manded back to be tried under the
indictments. What is known as the
Crescent case will be the one called
first, and Attorney General West Will
try the case. 1t is understood that
the matters involved in these impor-
tant cases will have to be finally de-
cded in the United States supreme
court.

Shannon's room and found her i'll at

In Memoriam.

Since in His providence, Our
Heavenly Father has called from our
midst our esteemed friend and CO.
worker, Miss Mary Perrott, there
fore:
Be it resolved by the teachers OF
Carter County Summer Normal, as
sembled that we cherish the memory
of Miss Mary Perrott. and that we
emulate her lofty ideals which found
expression in all the details Of her
useful life; that we remember her as
one who was faithful to the utter
most in the discharge of life's mani
fold duties, even unto her death.
Resolved, That we tender to her
bereaved sister our sympathy for her
in her great loss. She will miss the
sweet companionship Of that loving
heart: she will miss the helpfulness
of those strong, gentle hands; she
will long for the sound of the voice
that is STILL we would urge her not
to think on these things, but rather
remember that Miss Mary has entered
into the Joys Of her inheritance and
already she wears the diadem of per-
petual youth and health; already she
drinks from the fount of perennial
| bliss.
Resolved That a copy of these
resolutions be furnished each Of the
city papers for publication and also
that a copy begiven to Mrs. Corneli9

STRANGE LITIGATION

Among the curiosities OF litigation
may be cited the following case. On
the boundary-line of two farms IN an
Austrian village, there grew q large
gooseberry bush. from which two
farmers for years gathered the prod.
uct. What grows on my side Ia mine.
and you may have the rest" was the
agreement.
Some time ago the neighbors had
q misunderstanding, and this came to
climax when the gooseberries be-
came ripe. A lawsuit followed. and
appeals were made to higher judicial
bodies. The final decision was lately
recorded In the Austrian courts.
Each party Is to have the right to
pick the berries which grow on his
side OF the line. Just rs 1t was orig
ally, but neither may destroy the
bush. Tho costs are charged half
~ each litigant. Each farmer had to
pay 255 krone. The yearly yield OF
the bush is worth about one-half
krone, and the judge told the fighting
farmers:
with good luck. 1t will take you
only 800 years to make the bush pay.
Take good care OF It,"

FEARLESS RAVENS

From time immemorial ravens have
been the subject of song, story. and
superstition. Their fearlessncss, trick
cry. contradictory manners, artfulness.
harsh note, ugly form, and beautiful
black plumage have formed the theme
for many n bird.lore story.
Perhaps one of the most curious
facts about the raven Is that while
there Is no more Shy bird. or one more
difficult to get near to. when 1t Is wild,
none tames more easily. and when
tanned 1t Is totally fearless. When
wild, the raven will never dare to at
tack any bird. but will steal eggs or
young, and hover around uttering the
most dismal croaks. but once tanned
he thinks nothing OF walking up to
your dog and using old Towser's back
as a sort OF penwiper for cleaning his
beak. and will often go so far. II the
dog is asleep. as to pull the animals
ears and tweak Its tail, flying away
with great scurry when the dog
growls at him. but returning again In
few minutes to renew the attack.

A SUNLESS VILLAGE

In the valley OF the Lyn, near Lyn.
mouth. North Devon. there is a quaint
little hamlet called Middleham, where
for three months in the year the sun
Is not seen.
The cluster OF houses forming the
hamlet is surrounded on all sides by
hills SO steep and high that from No.
vember until February the sun does
not rise high enough to be Been over
their tops.
The first appearance OF the sun Is
eagerly looked for, and as 1t is first
seen on February IA, the inhabitants
call 1t their valentine.
II the day should be foggy or
cloudy so that 1t cannot be seen. there
IL great disappointment. especially
among the children.
For the first few days after the
14th the sun 10 only seen for a very
short time, but as the sun rises higher
in the heavens the time 1t Is in sight
increases daily until its height is
reached, when it gradually begins to
fade from view again until In Novem
Der 1t entirely vanishes from sigh,

Most men would gladly take his place
And shoulder all his obligations,
Though there are lines upon his face
And he has few and brief vacations;
Most men would gladly. If they might,
BE where he is and have his money;
But nothing fills him with delight,
To him there's nothing that is funny.
HIS look is solemn. in his eyes
There never turks q merry twinkle;
Among his lines of care there lies
Not even one mirth-Givcn wrinkle;
With sober looks he goes his way,
BY one grim purpose animated
From him, Manufactured. bent and gray,
No jest has ever emanated.
Yet there are men who watch him pass,
Permitting envy to possess them
Men who are hated by no class.
And who have few Ills to distress them
Men who sometimes forget while
That only money is worth getting,
Who watch the nmble clown, and smile.
Too glad to waste the moment fretting.
His wealth Is great. his station high,
But by one purpose driven daily,
He has no time to ever try
To let his solemn tones ring eayly;
Yet there are men who envy him
Who. even while he piles up money,
Remains Manufactured and as grim
As death and just about as funny.
