It took a Chicago jury about two hours to bring in a verdict of guilty against the Standard Oil Company, g charged with having sent oil from Whiting, Ind., to East St. Louis at six cents a hundred, the legal rate being eighteen. There was one indictment, but many counts?1,463. For each offense, otherwise called a count, a fine must be imposed. When sentence has been pronounced the company may find ?29,260,000 added ^ to its list of contingent liabilities. There is a large margin, however, be- a tween maximum and minimum, ?1,- ^ 463,000 being the lowest figure at which the trial judge can mulct the nornoration. His honor SDecificallv ^ charged that the jury must find intent on the part of the defendant to violate the law. ^ Naturally the verdict was hailed as ^ a signal victory for the people. Gulp- ^ ability, not to say criminality, is assumed as a matter of course, when "V the defendant happens to be a great corporation, which is held to be sy- ^ nonymous with a grinding monopoly. ^ I Still, the fact remains that law is not 0 | presumed to differentiate, that it is protective as well as punitive, that it x is defensive as well as offensive. Also, ^ the fact remains that injustice can be done to none without peril to all, rich c and poor alike being in the same boat. c A r>rl t.TiArA arp ir? t.lip no^nnst. "? ~ I F the Standard Oil Company account of a which can well be taken. c There is railroad competition between the points alluded to above. The Chicago and Alton asked for part of the Standard Oil business, offering v transportation at prevailing rates, six p cents a hundred. The offer was aceepted and the business divided. It ^ appears, however, that the Chicago p and Alton was a reorganized road and n that its predecessor had published * eighteen cents a hundred as its oil rate. It also appears that this rate had gone into desuetude, being superceded in everything but the matter of publication, which little legal formal- ^ ity had been overlooked. Armed with ^ this technicality, the government in- ^ voked the pains and penalties of law. Statutes have been described as ^ common sense crystalized. The defendant diverted to the Chicago and c Alton part of the patronage two other roads enjoyed. As no other manu- -g factnrer ships oil between t*he points, ^ there could, of course, be no effort to << grind a competitor. And as neither ^ more nor less wgs paid to one line ^ than to each of the two others, it was a a clear case of share and share alike q as far as the carrying corporations were concerned. So, nothing can be clearer than that there was no motive for violating law, the one thing clear y being the absence of inducement. P Nor, finally, could any harm come to C) the consumer, the company's rule ? being to make the selling prices plus r( the freight. hi For what, therefore, is the con - ^ pany to be fined? Certainly not for C( restraining trade, because there was a no competition. Certainly not for tc aiding and abetting a railroad monop- ^ oly. because ^distributed its patronage. Certainly not for conspiring and plotting to rob the consumer, because the aforesaid distribution cost him m nothing. As a matter of fact, dam- b; age was done to literally nobody, ci neither public nor private interests d< being either injured or menaced. The tl - - - j t* IV i head ana tront 01 tne company's 01 offending 1% that It did not pay a rate fr not only obsolete, but ridiculous. It tt only remaining to be added that it is al not more ridiculous than the law p] which,, in such circumstances, is car- le ried to enforcement. As to the government lawyers, they were barking up sa the wrong tree.?Brooklyn Daily it Eagle. d< Relief from Rheumatic Pains. cc "I suffered with rheumatism for over ar two years," says Mr. Holland Curry, a cr patrolman, of Key West, Fia. '-Some- 25 times it settled in my knees and lamed K me so,I could hardly walk, at other times it would be in my feet and .hands . so I was incapacitated for duty. One *n night when I was in severe pain and N lame from it my wife went to the drug z\ store here and came back with a bottle , of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I was rubbed with ic and found the pain had re nearly gone during the night. I kept ac on using it for a little more than two m weeks and found that it drove the rheumatism away. I have not had trouble from that disease for over three months.'' For sale by Kaufmann Drug Co. pj ? ? tl In West Alabama the stands of cot- ^ ton are poor and seed scarce.
