month. and rural telephone rates,
which have never been below so cents
month"; are to be raised to 75 cents
"a month. In Spokane business tele-
phones cost $3.50 per month and in
Seattle they cost SO per month.
Mr.. Middleton suggested that in
stead of asking for so cents a month
on rural telephone lines the Moscow
company should ask for rs cents as
minimum charge, and he made it
plain that his inspection convinced
him that an increase of rates is alb
solutely necessary to save the compa-
ny from loss or disseminating opera
ton.
1t was suggested that wages for
telephone employees are much lower
than at Pullman and lower than they
should be. An increase of 81 per
month on 100 business telephones in
Moscow, would raise $1,000 per year,
but the proposed increase of salaries
alone will be double that sum, or
about $2500 per year, if salaries and
wages are placed on the same level as

CRIME AND DIVORCE
AFFL|CTS SPOKANE
. WAVE OF INSANITY, JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY AND DRUNKEN
NESS PREVAILING

POKANE.-Divorce, juvenile crime
and insanity waves have been ramp
ant here of late, and all are traceable
to a condition of social unrest"
This is the opinion of Judge R. M.
Webster, who as presiding judge of the
Spokane county superior court, is
charged with the adjudication Of all
cases of these three types.
Even the rapid rate of growth of di-
vorce cases in the past 20 years has
been exceeded recently. Juvenile crime
has been rampant, and the police de-
clare it their greatest problem.
"The divorce and insanity waves are
traceable directly to condition of So
cial unrest" Judge Webster said re-
Gently "There is undoubtedly some
connection between divorces and juv-
emile crime. A divorce, as rule means
that a home has broken up and broken
homes lead to juvenile troubles.
Recently we have had from four to
eight divorce hearings on every Tues
day and Thursday ''The run of insan-
ity cases seems to have abated. Until
recently l had a commitment almost
every day This week I had only one ="
Judge Webster asserts that the clos
ing of schools during the influenza pc
riod had a detrimental effect upon 1u-
venile morals, removing, as it did, the
necessary something to do whlcn
crave.

GOVERNMENT EXPERT SAYS MOS
cow COMPANY MUST RAISE
IT'S RATES OR. QUIT

You may quote me as saying that
the Moscow Telephone G. Telegraph
company must either increase it's rates
or shut up shop. There are no other
alternatives. Rates here are too low
and the company cannot continue to
do business without increasing rates.
Expenses cannot be reduced. In fact
they must be increased, and the plant
is not now paying. l have no hesitan-
cy in saying that a substantial in
crease in rates here must be made
soon"
This is the statement of j. B. Mid
dleton of Portland, federal superin-
tendent of Independent telephone
plants of the northwest, made to the
editor of The Star-Mirror Mr.. Mid
dleton came here to inspect the plant
and equipment of the Moscow Tele-
phone & Telegraph company at the
request of the government, which con-
trolls the telephone systems of the

ITS READING ROOM

Some time ago Governor Davis ap-
pointed Miss Nancy E. Watts of Ida
no, to look after Idaho's interests in
greeting returning soldiers whose
homes are in this state. and the gov
ernor wrote to The Star-Mirror tell
ing of the appointment and outlining
the work in which Miss Watts would
be engaged. The camp community
service looks after the returning SOL
diers, provides a meeting place for
them and tries to make things as
pleasant for them as possible.
The Star-Mirror put the "Hall of
States" as the camp is called, upon
the subscription list and sends The
Daily Star-Mirror to the camp. That
it is appreciated is shown by the fol-
lowing letter just received from Miss
Watts in which she mentions Moscow
boys and sends their thanks, with her
own, for the paper Her letter fol-
lows:

Gliding whether a unit for instruction

MICHIGAN TAX CROOKS
More Suits Filed in Van Buren,
County, Michigan, to Remove
Clouds on Titles Than in Any
Other County in the United
States.
Land Sharks and Others SO Bold In
Their Juggling Of Books and De.
seriptions That Uncle Sam
May Get Them.

There are more suits filed in the
gan, to remove clouds from land titles
than there are fled for that purpose
in any other county in the United
States, including those containing the
largest cities In the country.
There have been more professional
land thieves at work in Van Buren,
County than in any other county in
the United States, and they are still
at work.
Men connected with certain lines
OF business and using officials elected
In some townships as their tools are
engaged all of the time in clouding
the titles of honest and bona fide land
owners.
This fact has done more to keep the
county back than any other thing.
The bad name given tosthis part Of
the State of Michigan by the land
crooks is becoming a by-word through.
out the nation.
Many Of these crooks claim land
on the strength Of tax titles--ob-
tanned after the rightful owners had
paid the taxes-through juggling Of
descriptions and tax books.
Efforts are to be made to reach
some of them through Federal action,
as the peculiar Eold they have on local
authorities precludes hope of reform
in that direction.
Victims of these bands of crooks
are advised that II they live outside
Of Michigan they can bring suit
against officials, hackers, brokers or
others who damage them or their In.
terests in the u s. courts.
The citizens of Van Buren, County
should wake up to the situation and
retire these grafters to the peniten.
tiary or to some other place where
their public records cannot injure the
community.
Van Buren, County Is naturally rich
in soil, delightful in climate and geo
graphically ideal for success in every
line.
It's prospects have been blighted.
The testimony of all outside people
who have invested there Is that they
have been skinned and bothered by
the land shark syndicate.
