MUCH INTEREST SHOWN |NHEAR|NC
Of EXCHANGE IN FARGO COURT

Fargo, May 19.-The case brought
by Attorney General Linde to have
temporary receiver appointed for the
Equity Cooperative exchange, to have
its charter annulled, it's business
wound up and the corporation dissole-
vd on the ground Of insolvency and
fraudulent and improper methods with
intent to practice deception on the
shippers of North Dakota came up for
a hearing before Judge Pollock of the
district court here today.
From the proceedings this forenoon
it is possible an adjournment may be
taken till a later date at the request
of the defense which stated that be-
cause of the refusal of ]. G. McHugh,
secretary of the Minneapolis Chamber
of Commerce, to testify fully before a
commissioner appointed by this court
the defense had not had sufficient time
to prepare its case.
Two weeks more time as we'll as a
limitation on the time the plaintiffs
had for filing additional affidavits will
probably be sought by the defense.
Demurrer Argued.
A demurrer to the complaint asking
the dismissal of the case on the alle-
cation that sufficient grounds for a
cause for action before the court had
not been made was being argued at
the noon recess. This is regarded as
largely a formality and there is little
indication that the demurrer will be
granted.
Attorney General Linde, assistants
Murphy and Bizing and former su-
preme court Justice Engerud appeared
for the state, Attorneys Manahan and
Drake of Minneapolis and Robinson &
Lenpke of Fargo, appeared for the
defense.
Under misapprehension that the
burden of proof was on the defense
Manahan asked the right to open and
close the case but the court Informed
him that under the practice in this
state the burden of proof lay with the
plaintiff.
Manahan Sarcastic.
! In his statement to the court Man.
ahan referred in a sarcastic manner tc
the Minneapolis Chamber of Com.
merce which aroused applause the 10(
or more Equity Cooperative Elk
change stockholders present. The
court announced at that stage of the
proceedings that the action involved
a large amount of money, that it inter
:ested hundreds of shippers in the state
and required serious consideration il
|! an unbiased and uninfuenced manner
and that no demonstration of approva
al or disapproval would be permitted
and those offering it would be in con
tempt of court.
This put summary stop to tn
demonstrations.
Manahan also started to roast tn
attorney general for bringing the cas-
in the name of the state and claime'
he was a tool of the Minneapoli
Chamber of Commerce. The cour
stopped that line Of statement by an
nouncing that it was presumed tha
the actions of the attorney general

lwere proper and legal and that unit

JOHNNY EVERS TELLS SOMETHING
ABOUT TRICK PLAYS INBAsEBALL

timely TO relate some OF the tricks OF
the trade that Ed ReuIbach nursed
under his cap. Although II Is not gen

the real comedians OF the game When
things were breaking badly for the old
Cub machine Il was Reulbach who
could be counted upon to do some
thing to hVen things up. Z
As Is we'll known. Reulbach, while
one Of the great pitchers Of the game,
was cratic IN his work. Al times he
was wild as the proyerbial hare, and

ords show what he was at other times.
One Of his fayorite expressions was,
Il have q scheme" He used It SO
much that Il finally got so Il was
greeted with the chorus from the Cub
bench. What another!" There were
many times when Frank Chance tried
10 be severe with yReulbach. only 10
have Ed say, Il have a scheme" All
hands knew that something impos-
sible was going to be voiced, and
Chance would have to turn away to
keep from laughing. - 81
! never win forget two OF his
schemes" The Cubs were In Pitts
burg one day and It was ReuIbach,s
turn to work. He warmed up for the
customary ten minutes before the
game and seemed to have lot OF stun
on the ball As soon as he stepped
into the box, however, he lost II an.
He walked the first ave hatters that
faced him, Chance punctured these
passes with verbal comments After
two runs had been forced In. Chance
could stand II no longer. He walked
over to Reulbach and said: Whats
the matter with you! Cant you
lay the ball on the platef II you can't,
get out Of the game.

TWO OF A KIND.
(Exchange.}

We presume that many people think
the newspaper men are persistent duns
as they keep reiterating, "Iook at the
label on your paper" move up the
date" you are back on your subscrip-
tion," "pay what you owe," "pay up"
"pay us"
Now let a farmer or business man
place himself in similar business po-
sition and see if he would not do the
same. Suppose the farmer raises a
crop of one thousand bushels of wheat
and his neighbor should buy a bushel
and the price was two dollars or less
and the neighbor says: 81 will pay you
the sum in few days" AS the farmer
doesn't want to be small in the matter
of small things, he says, "all right"
Another comes in the same way until
the whole thousand bushels are gone
out to the one thousand different per-
sons. No one purchaser concerns him.
self about it, and, of course, that could
not help him any. He does not realize
that the farmer has frittered away his
crop of wheat in little dribs and that
he is seriously embarrassed in his bust
ness because his debtors treat it as a
small matter. But If all would pay him
promptly which they could as well as
not, it would enable him to carry on
his business without difficulty. The
above comparison is too true of the
difficulties that newspaper man has
to contend with.

Even youngsters are enthused over
city beautiful idea," says a New Or
leans headline. 1t suggests the thought
that mine of wealth is too often left
unworked when one fails to enlist the
service and enthusiasm of the young
in any important enterprise. The child
as the future citizen should never be
ignored. Seed planted in their minds
finds always fertile soil, and it is as
easy, If not easier, and far more salts
flying to sow wheat than tares. In civic
work, the children are always wonder
full helpers. They see the unsightly
trash, and their wills are as determined
as their backs are supple in disposing
of It. They can be more easily educat-
ed than older folk. For this reason, the
promise Of the new ideas in education,
gardening, domestic training, etc., is
so great.

THE LAW OF GIVE AND TAKE.

The dollars We send away help the
mail order man to take vacation in
Europe or at the seashore. They help
him to maintain his automobile and to
ride on paved roads.-Exchange
True, and no one is a greater be-
lever in keeping the dollar at. home
than The True Democrat. But there
are two sides to this matter. If the
merchant desires to hold business at
home he must have what people want,
must keep an up to date stock. In
times past when mail facilities were
poor, and newspaper advertising limit
ed, local merchant could sell almost
anything he had in stock, because the
customer knew that it was take it or
go without. But now the latter is more
independent. If he cannot find what
he wants on the home merchants
shelves, then few lines to the city
merchant within the same postal zone,
and he gets prompt service by return
parcel post.
There must therefore be reciprocity
between the local merchant and his
customer If it is right and loyal for
the latter to support the home man,
then it is equally right for the GUS
toner to find what he wants at home,
and not be forced to send away for it.
The average country merchant will
Immediately say that he is unable to
compete with the large and varied
stocks Of the city man, and that the
parcel post, for this reason, is sticking
a knife into the heart Of home business.
But he should consider that it need
do so, only as he wills it so. The parcel
post may be the servant of the country
merchant also, by enabling him to
make small orders of goods wanted by
customers. For example, customer
wants yard of purple satin like a
sample. What is easier than for the
country merchant to say that he will
order it and get it to the customer
within two days? The merchant may
not make much on the order, but he
keeps his customer from forming the
habit Of sending away for his goods.
Most persons dislike the labor of writ
ing, and the expense of getting money
orders, when they have no bank &C
counts, and would prefer to order
through home merchant il prices are
right and their orders are inteIIigentIy
and promptly filed.

THE MAGDALEN's CRY.

The Mansfield Enterprise contains a
pathetic account of a woman in that
town, driven to an evil life, to get
bread for her four children. When
public attention was drawn to the case,
and the children taken away from the
vicious environment, the poor woman
exclaimed: "Will they do nothing for
me?" She said that her bad conduct
was only of recent date, and for the
purpose of feeding her children. A
younger woman associated with her
was also removed, and she alone, was
left apparently to continue as she had
begun. The incident reveals the fire.
quent flaw in reform work. Children
are removed from vicious surround
ings; young women find a House of
the Good Shepherd; but too often it is
concluded that older people are harden
ed in sin, and it is useless to try to
redeem them. On the contrary, it is
these, who realize that they are feed
ing on the husks of life, and their pitt
full cry is sounding: will they do
nothing for me?"

PLEASE TELL US.

Every farmer should tell his local
papers about his successes on the farm
and how they were achieved. We are

for it enables us to spread the news of

needs flow of eloquence to tell of his
success The facts of a farming sue
cess are eloquent in themselves.-Lou-
