A decision of the supreme court of Califor
nia , regarding' .contracts by means or which a
combination of manufacturers had under
taken to suppress competition in the sae ! of
lumber , is interesting us supplumunting' and
emphasizing a number of similar decisions
that have been rendered in other states. All
the manufacturers tit a certain point in Califor
nia Inul contracted to sell to & corporation tho
product of their mills , so far as it should be
required by the people of four counties. The
parties to this arrangement agreed that none
of them should sull to any other buyer in the
specified territory , the pau.ilty for the viola
tion of this ajroeme'it beuK a rtu < i to ho col
lected by the corporation , which was created
by the manufacturers to prevent competition
One of the ma'iufiicturers iu the combine
broke the contract.and the corporation , repre
sentiug the other memh-srs. brought suit
against him. The case went to the supi erne
court , which held thatany one of the manufaet
urers could safely repudiate his co ntract. The
court said tnat the pinimill hid : an undoubted
right to purchaso all the lumber it chose and
sell it at 8uuh prices and us it saw fit , but it
transcended a rule essential to tlie best inter
ests of the community , and ne'jessary alike to
the protection of individu-ils and leijitun ito
trade , whore as a condition of purchase it
bound the vendor , under a penalty , not to sell
toothers. Courts it was declared h ivenothinsr
to do with the results naturally flowing from
tie laws of supply and Jemuid. "hut when
agreements are iwirtcd to for the purpose of
t iuiug mule out of the realm , of e-nnpetition.
ti .d thereh ) euliaiiein ror depre sin prices of
eo nniodities , the courts cannot besuceessful-
W i.ivoked. " and the execution of such agree
ments will be lefcto the volition of the parties
thereto Decisions substantially similar nave
bee'i rendered in N'ew York. Pennsylvania
Jluo a.d Illinois , and this concensus of judi
cial opiuion against the legal force of eon
rat ts designed to suppress competition issitr-
uiticant and important. When the courts re
fuse to protect combinations of this character
Multilist themselves their dissolution can only
nc a question of time , dependent on the cupid
ity o' their separate members.
The dry cold weather of the early winter
mouths is productive ot a great deal of croup
among children. Mothers should be on the
lookout for it. and tie prepared to arrest it as
soon as the flrstsymptoms appear. True croup
never comes without a warning ; a day or two
before tlieuttack tnechild will become hoarse
and that symptom is soon followed byapecul-
i ir , rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough
tem < dy is given as soon as this hoarseness or
• < > ugh appears , all danger and anxiety may be
• voided ; it has never tailed , even in the most
• -evere cases. There is no danger in triviug
he Uemcdy for it contains uo injurious sub
stance. For sale by all druggists.
The western territories so far as heard from ,
oiled up largo republican majorities , as was
to be expected. Washington , Idaho. Moutunu

swing grace ! ully into 'ine wiih their sisters of
the West when the right of suffrage will have
neeu extended to them by a republican con-
-Tess and administration.
Many persons contract severe colds during
he early winter months and permit them to
ning on persisteutly all winter ; weakening
no lungs and paving the way for catarrh ,
-hrouic broucnitis , or consumption. Xo one

Alleged Crookedness.
j J. It Jacobs , an ux-post.u tster fr > m Dun iy
county , was brought here Monday charged
with a bad piece of irregularity. Nearly a
year ago Jacobs resigned a little postmaster-
ship in the county named , and the ofllce was
abandoned Prior to his retiring he is said to
I have intercepted and opened a letter address
ed to a mail carrier nam < M G. W. Sawyer. It
contained a treasury warrant for Sawyer's pay
which it is alleged Jacobs took to Sawyer and
t Id him it had been sent on to be signed.
Sawyer signed it and gave it back for Jacobs
to remail to Washington for payment. Instead
of rcmailing it , it is alleged that Jacobs
got tlie money. Omaha Uepuhlican.
Reducing the Surplus.
The disposition of the Surplus in the II. S.
Treasury engages the attention of our States
men , but n more vital question hits our atten
tion , and that is the reduction of the Surplus
Consumptives. Since the discovery and intro
duction of Dr. King's New Discovery for con
sumption , there has been a marked decrease
in thje mortality from this dreaded disease , and
it is possible to still further reduce the number
of consumptives. How ? By keeping con
stantly at hand a bottle or Dr , King's New
Discovery and using according to directions ,
upon the appearance of the first symptoms ,
such as a Cough , a Cold , u Sore Throat a Chest ,
or Side Pain. Taken thus early acure is guar
anleed. Trial bottles free at A. McMillen's
dru store.

trid a physician , the best at command , but
