THE RATE BILL. The rate "bill went through the

Benate with a whirl and President ' Roosevelt attached his signature beI lore ho went to bed Friday night. : Six months ago the big railroad offl-

; clals laughed In their sleep when ' they thought of the foolishness of the people in demanding fair treatment from the railroads. Congress, they felt, never would dare to touch such legislation. Public sentiment backed j by the "big stick" of President Roosevelt did wonders. To the President I belongs the real credit, though he of

pertain leaders In both branches, briefly the points covered in the rate Vlli are these: ' Requires all interstate carriers to

oake through routes and reasonable lnt rates. Makes oil plpo lines common car- , ers, express companies and sleeping It companies common carriers and

RUSHVILLE ENTERPRISE

GEORGE WASHINGTON ABRAHAM LINCOLN PAYNE PREPARING TO VISIT HIS "RELASHUNS" IN RICHMOND NEXT WEDNESDAY.

Rushvllle, June SO, (Spl.) "Say, boss, am yo not a good frien' to me. Yo shorely am, now ain't yo?" With these words on his lips and a piece of paper in his hand, George Washington Abraham Lincoln Payne, the little grizzled old negro, who cares for many of the offices in the down town district, and whose matrimonial ventures and eccentricities have won him renown, shuffled into a local attorney's office today and stood with a forlorn expression on his face, waiting to get the attorney's attention. "Say, boss, now, now yo am Sorely mah frien', ain't yo?" he repeated. "Yes, yes, certainly I am," the attorney answered, his eyes taking in the piece of paper suspiciously as he wheeled in his chair. "How much is it going to cost me?" "Well, you see, boss," said George, "me an' mah ole woman wants to spend da Foth at Richmon' wld some of har relashun, an' beln dat Ah alnt got money 'nuf fo.de' trip mahself, Ah'm axin some ob mah frien's to

help me. How much will yo sus-cribe?"

George handed the attorney the paper and he persued it carefully. The paper read as follows: "Where

as our esteemed friend, George Payne, has not been away from Rushvllle for twenty years, and

"Whereas he is very anxious to spend the Fourth of July in the city

of Richmond, Ind.,

"Therefore, we the undersigned,

agree to pay the sum set opposite our names for the purpose of defraying the expenses of himself and wife on that occasion."

A HANDWRITING EXPERT

DR. HURTY IN NEW ROLE

Figured Conspiciously In Interesting Law Suit at New Castle in Which Signature of a Farmer Was an Important Factor in the Result.

New Castle, Ind., June 30. (Spl.) Dr. J. N. Hurty, Secretary of the State Board of Health, was an expert witness today in a peculiar law suit. After a close examination of a check for a large sum of money which had been tampered with he gave it as his opinion that the handwriting on the check was that of but one man. It was written by U. S. Abshlre, of Mlddletown, drawn upon the MIddletown Bank and tendered to William Baldwin, of Selma, Iowa, In payment for cattle. Abshlre contends that he tendered a check for $400 In payment and was to send a draft for the balance, but that Baldwin made an erasure and raised the check to $2,278. Baldwin contends that the check appears today Just as he received It In April, and It shows that 400 had been erased. After leaving Selma, Ashire telegraphed the bank to honor a check for $400. The message and erasure made the bankers suspicious and they protested It. Hence the suit.

THINGS

ACTIVE REAL ESTATE

Demand for Both City and County Property Continues Very Brisk.

MANY GOOD INVESTMENTS

PAYMENTS ON NEW WEST SIDE ADDITION HAVE BEEN SATISFACTORY AND FEW BUYERS HAVE DROPPED OUT.

Real estate activity in Richmond seems to be very pronounced. Usually at this time of the year properties take a slump but contrary to the custom, lots, houses and rentals are now being sought. There are very few renting houses in the city which are without tenants. Real estate seems to be offering special inducements for the Investment of money. Recently three houses in the central part of town were In the .hands of administrators and before they were ready for sale many offers had been made for the properties. When they were finally sold it was learned that there were some who would have been willing to have gone better than the price received. So conditions apparently are of the very best sort In Richmond. The payments on the Earlham addition, which was opened to the public a year or so ago, have been prompt and steady. It was the opinion that at least one-half would drop out but the number remains near the original. The Jenkins addition, near the car barns, is furnishing exceptionally good installment payments and the operators are very well satisfied. There have been but three or four forfeitures of lots out of the ninety original holders.

Palladium Want Ads Pay.

There are scores of Wayne County persons who are members ot the Greenfield Mutual Burial Association and they are interested In the present contention between that company and the State. The State Auditor has notified all such associations that they must either Quit business or comply

with the laws and they have sent

their, representatives to talk with the

State officials regarding the real letter

of the law.

The representatives of nearly all the associations admit that they can not conduct their business as regular insurance companies, and they say that unless some other plan is devised they will have to quit. The Greenfield Mutual Burial Association, through its attorney, H. B. Patton, has proposed to the State auditor that it be permitted to reorgan lza under the Life and Accident Assessment Association act. The Greenfield company has a membership of six thousand in Hancock and adjourning counties. While the State auditor hasaot replied to the communication i of the Greenfield company, he is not of the opinion that a reorganization of the kind proposed would be legal, consldernig the recent opinions of the attorney general on this subject.

America's great philosopher and poet, Ralph Waldo Emerson, never wrote a truer sentence than the following : "If a man can preach a better sermon, write a better book or make a better mouse trap than his neighbor, though he build his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door" When Hassenbusch introduced a Dignified Credit System, it was so different from the systems prevailing in other installment houses that rival dealers turned up their noses and sneered. But the PUBLIC saw it was better They came to our store and they continue to come and hundreds of people have thanked us for our efforts to uplift and dignify the installment business. We devote our lives to this business of helping the people and BETTERING the installment business. We will sell you any article on credit and permit you to name practically your own terms of payment. We aim particularly to benefit men on salary. Rich men run accounts for all sorts of goods, so why shouldn 't
