! ( \ II I I I Now and then a man gets into
i \ I j : office and learns during his term
i , of little discrepancies or faulty
.
-:1 f titles to land that encourages hm ?
tl . , to believe he can profit by setting
1
11 I . such titles aside for a considera-
( J \ tion - in other words , they work
; i , J ! . for the people for awhile to get :
\ onto the ropes so that they can I
' them. This
\ i , : better work against
I j ? 1 f . is the kind of a man that Cherry
, I' ( county has twice honored with
{ ! H elecjtion $ , and that man is now
I ll' : 'l lending nis assistance to destroy
} , I titles to land through some tech-
t I -nicality. Our courts should ob-
'serve such proceedings and wher-
. ever possible take into considera-
/ - tion the good and lawful intent of
° 'll I ! the parties. People throughout
1 '
r 'our country have lost millions of
.
" l.lt i . .dollars through faulty titles dug
t I i" up by some _ rascal . orscal-a-wag to
, I cloud a title of land , but there has
1" " I , b3en few instances where the
ii . , . defeated
.t , ; I ! rightful owner has . - been
irT the . end ! if he\haci the money to
fight the case. The burden falls
f upon those unable to go into court
to defend their titles.

I' . Fining The Beef Trust.
, . - . 16 ; is reported from Argentina
' that a law is in contemplation
= l ' . which will be designed to put the
i . American beef trust out of the busi-
ness of dictating prices of cattle or
meat. It is described as a bill
.
. prohibiting any trust or combina-
tion ! . especially tending to influence
the price of - cattle and meat. It is
stated that the bill is .directed
j against the . American . beef trust.
F And penalties are to TDB fines " run-
Ill" i ning : from § 100 to 500.
I , : That will probably hold : the beef
! t II ' , trust' ' If it should be fined the
. penalty each day of the year , in
:
I i i cluding Sundays and holidays , it
" ! S would never miss the money. Or ,
if . it did miss it , there are two
( , methods of recourse : One would
, be to advance the price of meat a
! fraction of a cent , and the other
i t . , . . would be to decrease the price of
.
k . cattle a fraction of a cent
" a pound. 'In the United States
i ; , there would be a third method ,
i '
/ I ( I namely , to appeal to a higher
I ; E : . court and have the judgment set
; aside ; but that might not work in
I I
'ill ' j \ , Argentina , where the science of
„ \1 \ justice is imperfectly developed.

I Anyway , two avenues of escape
are enough.
Fining a monopoly ! There are
no jokes like the old jokes. This
standard jest has appeared in
something like hundred different
'
forms , dating back to the Medes
and Persians. Another form of it
r is lifting yourself by your boot-
straps. Still another is the story
of the man riding a mule and car-
ring his sack of corn on his shoul
der to save the mule the weight of
it. But , in some respects the most
delightful version of this old stand
by of wit and humor is the modern
system of imposing fines on a mo
nopoly that has plenipotentiary
control over the price of a univer-
sal necessity - World-Herald. \
The School Election.
The village school ejection was
held at the court house Monday
night. A nine months school was
voted and instructed the county
commissioaers to levy a sufficient
amount to pay the expenses of
same. 'V. . E. Haley and W. D.
Clarkson were elected on the school
board for the three year terms.
G. A. Chapman was elected for
the one year term. The retiring
members were W. \ A. Pettycrew ,
L. C. Sparks and Mrs. Lottie
Cramer , the latter being appointed
to fill vacancy caused by the resig
nation of W. D. Armstrong.
During the past year there has
been some friction between the
school board and the graduating
class. The people generally were
not pleased with the action of the
school board and were ready for a
change , hence the new regime.
Last year an element got together
under the secret purpose of throw- .
ing out Prof. Watson and put
up their nominees under a guise !
of ' interest in building and in !
school work. Charles Anderson i
and 'W. D. Armstrong were elect-
ed , defeating W. D. Clarkson and
G. A. Chapman. When their I '
r
real purpose became known the
citizens of Valentine rebukEd them
and the defeat of other members
now is the result of their having
lent some assistance to or because
they were believed to be a party
to the intended insult to Prof.
Watson.
