JUST ACTION. The county commissioners lid just the risht thing when they refused flatly to grant any extension of the franchise to the South Bend-Logans-port intraurban promoters. They based their action on the fact that these men have not dealt squarely with a number of people in this county. .They have contracted , bills which have not been paid, and there is little ehance now of their ever beim paid. In addition to this, the continued failure to live up to the conditions in building the

road, gave another, and in itself a! sufficient reason, t for not allowing these promoters to fool along with thi? eounty any more. The commissioners cught to "bang rieht to the willows" on this proposition and make these fellows eome across and pay their bills before they talk any more about an extension of franchise or any other favors. CONTROL OF TRUSTS. Tn h:s notable article in the Outlook for Nov. 18, Theodore Roosevelt takes occasion to commend verv highly the Wisconsin m tboI of dealing with the trusts. He uses this Tanenase: "The success of Wisconsin in -.ml-; wiin me corporations wunin her borders, so as both to do them justice and to exact justice in rstnm from them toward the public, 1 as Wn signal ; and this Nation shrrll adept a progressive policy in s-stance akin to the progressive P lifv pot merely formulated n icrry but reduced to actual practice nith snc'i striking success in Wiserns'n." Inasmuch as the Wisconsin law is f7- Serator La Follette, it' looks a fleuch the ex-President is favorable to La Follette for the presidential nomination. FrMent Taft says: "My happiness is rot dependent on holding any office: I shall eo back to, private life wir no heart burnings if the people after m unnrejndicetl review of my aInn:ri!ratioD. conclude that some on" el 5 can serre them to their greater advantage." Can you imagine n old line politician giving errr??s;on to such a conclusion? Music Student's Program. T1 rnsic students of Mrs. J. E.

We believe that the merchant -who looks out for his customers' in- . terests will never have to worry about his own interests. Business success, like happiness, conies to the average man INDIRECTLY. The fellow who goes about seeking happiness is the most unfortunate individual imaginable; . the man who does his duty from day to day and tries to make others content finds true happimss. And so it is in business. We believe and alway have believed. that by serving YOUR interests we shall in the end serve our best interests. C. Z. Rowe 105 N. Michigan Street
