mANl'ED
On SPRINGFIELD,


One of the first things that is
needed just now probably a lit
tie worse than anything alse is a
lum Der yard, it being one of the
things for which the commercial
club was organized 10 secure.
Springfield has great build
ing territory around it. and ought
to have a 5000 90 lumber yard
to support the trade.
Parties who might be interest
ed in putting in a lumber ydrd
should open up correspondence
at once with the Springfield
| Commercial club.
A good denlist l., badly needed
in Springfield. Not only is he
needed, but we believe a good
dentist would find this a most
desirable location, lie having the
whole county to draw from. The
commercial club would be glad
to give any information of the
matter needed.
We believe shoe and harness
shop combined in Springfield
aould pay as well as anything
else for the money invested.
Atty Albert says there is al
ways more work for two lawyers
than there is for one, hence a
good attorney is needed here,
| as Mr.. Alberti has been having a
big run of work. A letter to the
commercial club will bring the
information desired.
We are going to need a cream.
cry in Springfield in .he early
future. Irdeed it was for this
one great need for Springfield
and Baca county that the com.
mercial club was organized, the
purpose of the club being par
ticularly the securing of a cream
cry md motor truck lire be-
tween Springfield ard Lamar.
, The truck line is an assured
thing in the spring, in case the
milk business at that time can
be made to justify, and with the
establishment of truck line,
the creamery will follow just as
naturally as day and night follow
each other.
We believe clothing house in
Springfield, handling both mems
and women's clothing, carrying
a stock of from $1,000 to S..
600, would soon find itself in the
midst of an immense business;
and especially with tailoring
department in connection.
There are other things nee lie d
in Springfield, but these are tie
onss calling for immediate atten-
ton.

COnstitutiOnality of Liquor Act
Contested in Court.
New Phase in Campaign to En-
force State Prohibition.
FIRST CASE TO HIGHER BODY
Railroads May Be Revuired to
Pay Heavy Penalty.
Opinion in Case May Be Hand.
ed Down Soon.

Constitutionality of the Mahin liquor
law in Kansas and the federaI Weop-
Kenyon act was contested today in
arguments before the state supreme
court involving the payment of fine
by the Missouri Pacific Railway COM
pany for the shipment of liquor into
kansas to be sold in violation of state
law The case came to the supreme
court on an appeal from the district
court of Cherokee county and intro
duces a new phase of the campaign
for the enforcement of the prohibitory
law.
For an hour today the supreme
court listened to arguments in the
case. The suit is the first of its kind
to find its way to the state supreme
court and if the decision of the trial
court is affirmed, means that rail-
roads which knowingly ship liquor
from a wet state to a dry state for
illegal purposes, must pay a penalty
under the anti-liquor law.
To Cherokee County.
Some months ago twelve cars of
beer were shipped into Cherokee
county. The beer was consigned to
individuals in Columbus and other
towns in the county. Even in Chero-
kee county, where 1T is charged that
the lid sometimes slipped, the sheriff
could not convince himself that an in
dividual would require car of beer
for his private use. So he seized the
beer and a complaint was issued
against the Missouri Paclflc railway,
which hauled the beer from Missouri
to Kansas.
Following a trial in the Cherokee
county district court, the Missouri Pa
cific was found guilty en- IL counts
one count for each car lot shipment of
beer The court assessed a fine of
$1,000 and the railroad appealed to
the supreme court. Arguments at
lacking the federal Webb-Kenyon act
and the state Mahin liquor law were
made by James Challis of Atchison,
representing the Missouri Pacific. s.
M Brewster, attorney general, repre-
scented the state and argued for an
opinion affirming TIE decision of the
lower court.
The supreme court will probably
hand down an opinion in the case in
November,

WAR NEWS BOILED DOWN
FOR The RUSHED READER

The long expected Teutonic
drive into Serbia has begun. Ber-
lin today announced that large
forces of Germans and AuStrians
have crossed the Drilla, Save and
Danube rivers and firmly estab-
lished themselves on the Serbian
side of those streams.
The Teutonic purpose is gener-
ally conceded to be push
through Serbia, involving the
crushing of Serbian military
power. This would bring them to
Bulgaria and ConstantinOp]e. Ser
bia is to be assisted in resisting
the Teutonic effort by French and
British troops, some OF whom are
already on Serbian soil.
Violent assaults last night by
the Germans in efforts to retake
the positions the French captured
from them north to Tahure in the
Champagne district were repulSed
with heavy losses to the TeutOnic
forces, it is announced in today'S
official statement from Paris.
Alexander Zaimis is forming a
new Greek cabinet in which lead
ers of the opposition will be given
representation, according to an
Athens dispatch. Former Pre-
miers Gounaris, Rhallis, Drag
ounis and Theotokis will be
mem berS OF cOdllllO1l ministry. II
is declared.
Already British troops have be-
gun to arrive at Saloniki, ac-
cording to Athens advices-
An interview with former Pre-
mier VenizeIos, given shortly be-
fore his break with King Con-
stantine, leaves no doubt that
under his premiership Greece
would have vigorously supported
Serbia in the present crisis.
Petrograd hears that there have
been anti-war demonstrations of
serious scope in Bulgarian dis
fricts, a state of siege having been
proclaimed to deal with the dis
affection. 1t is reported through
switzerland that considerable
forces of AuStrians and Germans
have been drawn from the east
ern front and sent to southern
Hungary for the campaign
against Serbia.
Field Marshal Liman Won San
ders. who has been the German
commander of the Turkish force
in Europe, has gone to Bulgaria,
being met at Philippolis by King
Ferdinand, according to adv1ces
reaching Amsterdam.

WHILE WAR LASTS
Duty on Sugar Is Not Likely to
Be Lifted.
McAdOO in Favor of Continuing
Emergency Revenue Act.

Washington, Oct. 7.-E x i S n 6
duties on sugar will be retained and
the war emergency revenue act will
be extended until peace is declared in
Europe, if the recommendations of
the administration to congress next
December are needed
Secretary McAooo made the follow
ing official statement:
In reply to many inquiries have
received about the revenue measures
that will be proposed in the next con-
gress, I have determined to recon-
mend:
First, that the emergency revenue
ac- which expires by limitation On De-
cember 81, 1915, be extended until
peace is restored in Europe, and, Sec
ond, that the existing duties on sugar
shall be retained for several years, or
until normal customs conditions are
restored. These are distinctively
revenue measures and are necessary
in view of the extraordinary condi-
tions now prevailing throughout the
world.
TT is impossible to state at the mo-
ment what, if any, additional revenue
measures may be necessary, as the eS-
Inmates of the various departments
developments have not yet been re-
ceived. 1t is clear, however, that the
| two sources of reven@e 1 have just
mentioned should be preserved, no
matter what the departmental esti-
mates may be. OF course, it rests
| with congress to say what shall be
DONE am merely stating what my
recommendations in these particulars
| may be-"
In this way it is estimated that APP
proximately 100000 revenue Will
| be insured to the government for at
least one and perhaps for several
years. the war emergency measure be-
| ing counted upon to supply about
| $50, 100000 and the duty on sugar be-
tween s5O,OoO,OOO and $6o,ooO,OOO an

WANT BETTER SERVICE
Gage Park Patrons to Ask for Thirty
Minute Cars.

A mass meeting to protest against
the winter street car schedule on the
Gage park line will be held at the
Gage park school house Monday night,
October IL. The residents of the dis
trict claim that better service is neceS-
sary. and that the maintenance of Il
better schedule will be justified. They
will ask for a thirty minute service
throughout the day.
Last winter the street car company
ran cars on the Gage park line every
half hour from to 10 o'clock in the
morning and from to o'clock in the
evening. The intervening service was
only every hour. The company 5usC-
fed this by the statement that the line
would not pay, and as the track had
only been laid a, few months before
there was no reason for running cars
so often. The Gage park patrons de-
sire a better service and claim that the
business will more than justify it.
