A Good Live Town.
Bert Marcum has leased the
Krebs Miner and has entire busi-
ness and editorial charge of the
paper. Besides being a good
citizen and manly man Mr. Mar-
cum Is a good printer and clever
editor and is in every way ca-
pable of giving Krebs just such
a paper as the patronage will
justify. Krebs is a good town
with a population of about 3000;
has numerous churches two rail-
roads and an interurban line
water works electric lights fine
opera house bank many stores
splendid public school system
fine Catholic school and as good
people as can be found anywhere
The commercial interests of the
town is of sufficient strength to
support a good paper and job
printing business and no expen-
diture of like amount would pay
the town better. But Krebs has
not contracted the advertising
habit to a very great extent and

Wins Big Suit. I
The greatest victory that any
state commission for corporation
control has ever scored in litiga- j
tion with express companies was j
won on Tuesday Oct. 7 when
the Supreme Court of Oklahoma
sustained the express rate order
'of the Oklahoma Corporation
'Commission. The case imolves
I approximately $600000 in ex-
cess collections for express made
I by the express companies which
under the ruling of the court will
be returnable to the shippers.
With the freight rate victory of
last fall this case gives back to
the public approximately one
million dollars collected by rail-
road and express companies con-
trary to the corporation commis-
sion. The express rate order was is-
sued by the commission June 11
1909. It was appealed to the
supreme court the companies
giving bond to indemnity ship-
pers. The case was remanded to
the commission twice for further
evidence and the bonds of the
companies increased from time
to times the fund in controversy
increased. I
The original order involved a re-
duction on an average of about
25 per cent in the express rates j
then in effect. The commission
ft on rehearing modified its rates

and money shipments to the ex-
tent that the reduction as last
presented to the higher court is
1 approximately 21 per cent.
The decision of the court writ-
ten by Justice Williams and con-
Icurred in by all the justices sus-
tains the corporations including
the rate schedule as last deter-
mined upon by the commission.
