OBITUARY OF 1IRS. RH0DEN
BUCKINGHAM DEFENDS
ADDITIONAL CHARGES
Hearing on South Side Into Re
Wcigh Charges Concluded
Yesterday Afternoon.
At ti e concluding session yester
day afternoon of the hearing with
rt-gar 1 to the re-weigh charge im
pi .1 by ih Union Sto.-k Yards com
pany on all stock weighed and yarded
ut of the resruhir stoiker and feeder
division of the yard3, Everett Buck
ingham, vice president and general
manag'-r of the company, defended
t!: additional charge on the grounds
tlat the revenue derived from such
a 'l.p.rg? was small and no more
than justifiable for service rendered.
"Full yardage charges for similar
Kervi o have i)"cn in force at other
markets for some time," he said,
ami we delayed adding the charge
aa long as possible."
With Mr. Buckingham's testimony
the examiner, O. M. Dagger of the
Washington oJTi.t, called the general
hearing to order and facts and fig
ures relative to the volume of busi-
ness carried on at the Omaha market
during the past year were submitted.
Explaining the term "marketing
privileges," Mr. Buckingham went
into some detail, going to the days
in 18S4 when the Omaha market was
organized and tracing its growth up
to its present tremendous propor
tions. "It is almost impossible to
place a fixed value on 'marketing
privileges'," he declared, "for in the
thirty-eight years I have been en
gaged In this industry it has grown
step by step to its present high
point of efficiency. It i3 a privilege,"
he continued, "for any man, whether
he ships one animal or a trainload
of fifty cars, to know that when he
reaches tljis market a buyer will be
there and his stock will be cared for
without discrimination."
The committee, composed of Judge
Hayard T. Hainer, O. M. Dagger,
John E. Ewing, and Miss W. N.
Daish. expressed thanks for their
cordial reception and treatment
while at the Exchange. They will
conduct a similar hearing beginning
next Monday at Peoria. The re
weigh charge will be tho nucleous of
that hearing at Is will at the Chica
go hearing to open October 1.

Lower interest on
Farm Loans!
Perhaps you have a mortgage against your place.
Maybe it is not due yet, but probably have an option
or right to pay the loan in full when you pay the
next interest.
If you are paying more than 5' now. don't wait for
the loan to become due, but see me about a new
loan before the next interest paying date.

LOAN ASSOCIATION
ADOPTS SLIDING SCALE
' In making th adjustment of the
loss occasioned in straightening out
the affairs of the Livingston Loan &
Building association the directors
and olik-ers have arranged a sliding
scale of the losses that will be nec
essary to meet and which will divide
equally as possible the amount that
v.ill be made necessary to cover the
shortage. The shares maturing at
this time will be extended for a pe
riol that will cover their pro rato
of the loss and each year according
ly, in this way of placing the loss
the burden falls on the earnings of
the shares instead-of being a direct
ESRCssment on the stockholders and
while it will make a longer time for
the older shares to mature at the
regular rate of interest, all will re
ceive their fulf amount at the end
and the shares cashed in at their
iuil vale. Those who took out shares
this year in the new series or that
may hereafter secure stock in any
series to be issued will not be affect
ed by the scale for the losses as their
shares will be handled as has been
the custom and they receive their
lull amount at the end of the ten
years.

automobile, in company with the
bride's cousin, Elmer Johnson, and
wife and they spent a few delight
ful day3 sight-seeing in the moun
tains of Colorado. On their return
trip, they stopped in Bayard for a

family. They report the Jacobsons
well and prospering and they sent
their best regards to their old friends
In Louisville. They also stopped for
a short visit, with ; relatives in

detour considerably as the highways
in many places are undergoing ex
tensive repairs. In Colorado Springs
they just chanced to see Paul Fitz
gerald driving by, but were unable
to attract his attention.
Mr. Larson and bride will go to
housekeeping at once in the splen
did rental property on south Main
street, which is now owned by An
drew Schoeman who purchased it of
his brother-in-law, Adam Rentschler.
This house has been occupied by Mr.
and Mrs. Philip Kahler, but they are
moving into their fine new home

The Louisville friends of Mr. and
Mrs. Larson will be pleased to have
this estimable couple establish a
home in our midst and will renew
their best wishes and congratula
tions. Louisville Courier.
