MEASURE EXPECTED TO

Aimed at Dairy Trust Said to Be

One Of the most important measures

Hunt bill, regulating the sale Of milk,

crimp in the creamery trust Of the
northwest which is charged with ne.
farious and underhanded work in driv.

While Representative Hunt, of Clack-
amas, the author Of the bill explained
the situation very lucidly in his intro.
ductory address, the prinpical talk
which won for the bin the almost ,in-
animous vote Of the house was that Of
Representative Vernon Forbes, Of
Crook county, who scored the practices
Of the creamery trusts numerically
and cited many instances wherein the
creamery trust would enter a territory,
in which n small community or private
creamery was in operation, and boost
butter fat prices 10 q height impossible
for the "little man" to attain with
the inevitable result that the little
creamery would be forced out Of bust.

Senator Day and the corporation in'
terests won another victory in the
senate this morning when an impro-
vised steam roller built especially for
the occasion succeeded in mashing But
ler's famous hydro.eleetric bill by a
vote of II to 12.
The bill has attracted considerable
attention provided that residents of
rural districts could organize utility
districts and by cooperation establish
and maintain any utility they desired
such as an electric lighting plant,
power plant or any other industry that
they might desire to operate for mutual
benefit.
Senator Day fought the measure on
the ground that it would discourage
the investment of foreign capital in
state industries using the same argu-
ment that he has presented against
every measure to give the state or
county government more power with
which to handle the atfairs Of corpora
ti0ns.
The fight for the measure was lead
by Senator Butler with the assistance
Of Senators Garland and Bingham.
Those voting for the passage Of the
bill were Bingham, Butler, Clarke,
Dimick, Garland, Kellaher, Kiddle,
Tangguth, Leinenweber, Ragsdale,
Smith of Coos and Curry, Vinton--12.
Senators voting no were Barrett,

possible through the use OF a pris.

the most important feature of the In
strument The dial, which is made OF

with luminous paint, and in addition to
this there are luminous patches on the
lid by which the instrument is readily
sighted at night. When night march
is to be undertaken the instrument is
opened and exposed to the daylight for
half an hour. This Is sufficient to
make the dial center and sighting
patches luminous for from six to nine
hours. In the latest form Of the in.
strument this exposure to daylight is
unnecessary, owing to the use OF
radium, substance that is always self
luminous.-Popular Mechanics.

sum of $500 and sustaining the at

suit. In this case, it seems. Mr..
Tough in 1910 sold his state lease to
Mr.. c. H. McManus for the sum of
$4,000, and McManus sold the same
to one e. e. Gates. who executed
a series of notes. which were by Mr..
McManus turned to Tough in pay

of said lease, Mr.. Tough retaining
the lease as security for the deferred
payments. This lease was transfer

to the defendant in this suit, Mr.. ].
H. Morris, and by this transaction
tn defendant as part of the consider

lease assumed and agreed to pay
the Gates notes that were held by
Mr.. Tough. After Mr.. Morris had
cultivated the lease and rented the
same receiving rents and profits
thereof for about three years. he
went before the Land Board and got
them to cancel the Tough lease, and
he took lease direct from the
state, and because of this fact he set
up in his answer that the consider

therefor had failed, and he refused
to pay Mr.. Tough the balance due

BANK LOSES CATTLE TAKEN
UNDER CHA1oTEL MORTGAGE

On last Saturday the District
Court of Alamosa was occupied in
the trial of the case of Lou Mincks
VS.. The First National Bank of Monte
Vista and John II. Brizendine of
Alamosa. This case, 1t seems, grows
out of state of facts about as fol-
lows:
Mr.. Mincks a number of years ago
had leased the E. l.. Stroup ranch
wherein he was to have one-half of
the increase of the cattle and profits
thereby realized. During the year
1910 Lou Mincks, the wife of George
Mlncks, purchased some calves which
in time increased to about eight head
of cattle, and her husband gave her
bill of sale to five head of his cat
tie, part of the increase and his
share in the Stroup cattle-all
amounting to thirteen head of cattle
owned by her. E. L. Stroup made
bill of sale to his wife, Josie
Stroup, for all of his cattle and in
cluded in the bill of sale the Mincks
t t e. Thereafterwards, Mrs.
Stroup executed a chattel mortgage
in favor of The First National Bank
on all of said cattle including the
cattle owned by Mrs. Mincks The
First National Bank foreclosed its
mortgage, took the cattle into its
possession, and sold them to John
II. Brizendine. Mrs Mincks ma1e
demand upon The First National
Bank for her cattle, which it re-
fused to give, claiming 1t took the
same under the chattel mortgage
from Mrs. Stroup. Thereupon Mrs.
Mincks instituted a suit against The
First National Bank for the value of
her cattle claiming their value to be
$500. After warmly contested
suit the case was submitted to
jury which returned verdict in fav-
or of Mrs. Mincks for $500. James
P. Veerkamp of this place, was at
torney for Mrs. Mincks and r. r.
Mitchell for the Bank.
