OF GREAT INTEREST
Both to Newspapers and to
Subscribers - Nebraska
Decision.

A suit for a principle was won IN
the district court Tuesday morn
ing when Judge George Thomas
directed the jury in the case Of The
Telegram Company vs. Anton NJ.
Weidner to bring in verdict for
the plaintiff. The amount Iuvolv-
ed was only 1926 but there was
broader question to be decided
that OF whether the defendant
could refuse to pay for a newspa-
per which he had received and ac-
copied for period of time after
the date to which his subscription
had been paid, when he had not
previously served notice on the
publisher TO discontinue it.
The case was first started IN coun-
ty court about three years ago, when
The Telegram company brought
suit against Mr.. Weidner for 50 50.
alleged to be due on subscription.
Judge John Ratteiman decided IN
favor of The Telegram. Weidner's
attorney appealed the case to the
dlstrlctcourtand now Judge Ratter-
mans decision has been sustsin-
ed.
When the case came up for hear
ing in the higher courts last Mon
day Edgar Howard, editor of The
Telegram, was the only witness
called for the plaintiff Mr.. How
ards testimony was, in substance,
as follows: Several years ago Mr..
Weidner ordered The Telegram,
paying S1.50 for years subscrip
ton in advance. He did not re.
quest that the company cease send
ing him the paper at the end Of
the year. The Telegram following
it's custom in such cases, continued
to send Mr.. Weidner the paper
ntil year and seven months after
he date to which be had paid.
Then q card was received from the
postmaster at Lindsay notifying
The Telegram company that Mr..
Weidner had refused his paper at
the pcstoffice. The company sent
Mr.. Weidner a bill for subscrip-
ton for the time he was in arrears
aud he refused to pay it.
After taking the stand in his
own defense, Mr.. Weidner stated
that he had authorized friend to
pay the 81. so starting his subscrip-
ton. He understood that it was
to stop at the end of the year, but
did not claim that The Telegram
company had been instructed to
that effect. He said that he did
not at any time write the company
regarding the subscription. Mr..
Weidner's attorney took the posi-
ton that he had not specifically
ordered the paper for more than
one year.
After the evidence had been in
troduced, attorneys on both sides
agreed that the question involved
was not one of fact-the facts as
given by both witnesses being prac-
tIcalIy undisputed-but rather one
of law which should be determ ined
by the judge. Judge Th0mas took
the case out Of the hands OF the
jury and on Tuesday morning in
structed that a verdict b9 return
ed IN favor of the plaintiff. Judge
Thomas decided that the old com.
mon law principle that what a
man received and used he was
bound to pay for applied in this
instsnce.-Sand, Silver Creek,

ST. PAUL, Mimi, August 1.-THE
International Harvester company to-
day was declared to be monopoly
in restraint of Interstate and foreign
trade, and was ordered dissolved by
majority decision In the United
States district court.
Unless the $140,OOO,OOO corporation
submit plan for the dissolution OF
the combination into at least three
independent concerns within ninety
days, or in case of appeal within
ninety days of the issuance of an ap-
peal mandate from the United States
supreme court, the decision announces
that the court will entertain an ap-
plication for the appointment of a
receiver for all the properties of the
corporation.
The decision of the court was CIV
en- by Circuit Judge Walter l. Smith
Of Iowa, with which Judge William
G. Hook of Kansas agreed, and from
which Judge Walter A. Sanborn of
Z Minnesota dissented.
The majority opinion held that the
International Harvester company was
from its organization in 1902 in vio-
lation of the Sherman law. The or.
iginal corporation, formed of five
concerns, violated the first section of
the Sherman act by restraining COM
petition among themselves. The COM
bined organization also tended to
monopolize trade in contravention OF
the second section of this law
The decision declares that while the
International Harvester company and
its selling organization, the Interna
tional Harvester company of America
control from 80 to s. per cent Of the
trade In agricultural implements man
ufactured by them, their treatment Of
smaller competitors in general has
been fair and just.
The court finds fault with the ac
tions of the corporation, aside from
the technical violation of the Sher
man law, for only two actions. The
opinion declares that there was M
excuse for the advertising of thu
products of d. M Osborne and Com
pany as independent for two year.
after it had virtually entered thu
International Harvester company
This advertising was to induce pur
chasers, the court finds, from thos
who were opposed to buying from tn
combination.
The other act censured by the dec
sion was the manner in which tn
five original concerns were turne
over to the International company b
william G. Lane, New York banker
who contended that he had purchase
the properties.
"The court is clearly of the opir
ion," the decision reads, "that tn
process by which 1t was made to al
pear that the properties were sol
to Lane was merely colorado"

I Harvester Trust An Outlaw
By the u. S. Supreme Court

property turned in to the Interna-
tional company was greater than the
stock issued for 1t, and that the case
involves no question of overcapitaliza-
ton.
The court cites portions of the de-
cision in the cases of the Standard
Oil company, the American Tobacco
company, the DUPONT De Nemours &
Co., and other cases as to what con-
stitutes the restraint of trade, reason
able and unreasonable, and concludes:
I'VE think it may be laid down as
a general rule that if companies could
not make legal contract as to prices
or as to collateral services, they could
not legally unite, and as the COM
panies named did in effect unite, the
sole question as to whether they
could have agreed on prices, and what
collateral services they would render
when their companies were all pros
porous, and they jointly controlled 80
to So per cent of the business in that
line in the United States. We think
they could not have made such
an agreement.
''If the five companies which form
ed the International had been small
and their combination had been es-
sential to enable them to compete
with large corporations in the same
line, then their uniting would, in the
light of reason, not have been in re-
straint of trade, but in the further
ance of it; but when they constituted
the largest manufacturers of their
articles in America, If not in the
world, and held jointly about 80 to
85 per cent of the trade, and two at
least of the combination were pros
porous, their combining was, when
similarly viewed, an unreasonable re-
straint Of trade. If the business OF
the separate companies combining
was unsuccessful it could be plain
that their combination was reason
able in view of the rule of reason as
proclaimed by the supreme court, but
it is conceded that the Mccormick
and the Deering companies had es
tablished reasonably successful and
prosperous businesses so that ques
ton is eliminated
"There is no limit under the Ameri
can law to which a business may no
independently grow, and even com
bination of two or more businesses
if 1t does not unreasonably restrain
trade, is not illegal; but it is the com
bination which unreasonably restrain
trade that is illegal, and if the par
ties in controversy have 80 or So pc
cent of the American business, ant
; by the combination of the companie
all competition is eliminated betweel
the constituent parts of the combine
tion, then it is in restraint of trad
within the meaning of the statute
under all of the decisions"
The decision reviews the history 9

ments in the United States, assertin
> that prior to the organization Of tn
International Harvester company tn
principal manufacturers of harvestin
implements in the United State
were:
The Mccormick Harvesting Nj
