means a cash outlay because labor
and material can not be secured tc
advantage on time. 1t means that
the company must borrow the money
and pay the going rate of interest in
order to insure the improvement be
ing made.
The large OUTLAWS to which the com
pany has been put will explain another
thing which was decided on by the
company at its meeting on Friday
night, and that is the increase CT rates
for use OF the phones. The rates as
they have been in the past and as they
are at this time are entirely made.
quate to pay the expenses of the
plant and to make the requisite i'm
provements. The stockholders have
not, for several years, received a
single dividend upon their common
stock and there is no prospect within
several years to come that the stock
holders will fare any better than they
have in the past.
There are large number OF stock
holders i'll the Crawford County Tele,
phone company who have been prac-
tica,ly without dividends during all
the time they have owned stock in the
company. This is not very encour-
aging prospect and one can hardly eX.
pect person to invest his money In
an enterprise that offers no returns.
The rates on business phones in
DenisOn is and his been $500 per
month; the increase is to $3.50 a
month. On resident phones the rates
are increased from $500 to $l.5O on
private lines and on party lines to
$l25. This applies to the city of Dem
ison. On rural lines, all OF which are
party lines, the rate is increased to
S1.5O per month. At Charter Oak the
business phones are not increased,
but remain the same as at present.
Resident lines at Charter Oak are in
creased to $3.50 a month and the same
is true in Arion.
This change will result in increas'
ing the eXchequer OF the company SO
that something near an adequate
amount will be given for the service.
1t has been the contention for a long
time that the Crawford County Tele-
phone service cost less than that OF
any other company in the state. We
do not know just how true this is. but
are satisfied that the rates up to this
time have been as low as those OF any
other county in the state. We are

the company's detective, started for
Denison in hopes OF capturing them
here. Mr.. Weir discovered his two
men in the yards here at Denison. but
when he started after them they made
their getaway and started out west
over the right of way. Hoping to in
tercept them he telephoned to Mr.. A.
H. Brogden and Dennis O'Brien. ask
ing them to keep q lookout for the two
men. 1t was not long before the two
men came along and when they saw
Brogden and O'Brien they left the
tracks and went over into corn field;
Brogdeni and O'Brien had armed them
selves with a couple of shot guns and
as Mr.. Hitz was coming out of the
field with a team and wagon he WAS
persuaded to join in the man hunt.
After considerable scouting around in
the corn field on the Heller farm
southwest Of DenisOn the posse were
able to surround the two men and
with shot guns leveled on them or
dered them to throw up their hands.
Seeing the array of firearms in the
hands of the posse the men decided to
surrender and the journey was COM
mcnced back to Denisor., On the way

men turned over to him. He brought
them to Denison and placed tllep in

If the forces of Won Hindenburg
and Kitchener had united and assem-
bled to put up a defense, they would
have been brushed aside by the great
army Of King Ak-Sar-Ben which in
vaded the city of Quivera last night.
With a resounding roar and a rush
that brooked no opposition that great
host made its way along the pike
while one great confetti battle was
waged, and he or she who did not en-
ter into that great battle was no fit

that have been waged on the Kings

That is. It looked very much the same

different. Many a gallant knight was
endorsed by fair lady But the gallant
knight didn't care; II was a pleasure to
be endorsed under the existing circum-
stances and he came back for more.
The third night of the Highway was
the most successful of the three. Two
thousand more persons found their way
TO the Highway than on the previous
night and the additional 1900 certainly
made things hum.
Everybody was on the go. The carnl-
val zone was no place to be unless you
were endowed with plenty of speed last
night. The ballyhoo men, the bankers
and the grinders were in prime form.
Each and every one threw his Laix In high
gear and the enthusiasm and hustle put
so much pep" into the crowd that Gus

Everybody seemed to have money and

have been a fit subject for a lynching
