THE NEWS IN BRIEF
indictments Against Standard OIL Com
pany.

The Federal grand jury for the West
ern district Of New York returned indict-
ments Friday against the Standard Oil
company Of New York; the Pennsylvania
Railroad company and the Vacuum oil
company of Rochester, for violations Of
the interstate commerce law.
The specific charges allege that the
Pennsylvania Railroad company granted
to the Standard oil company special con-
cessions in the shipments of freight, and
that the Standard Oil company did "un-
lawfully and knowingly accept from the
Pennsylvania Railroad company a conces-
sion in respect to the transportation OF
certain of its property in interstate COM
merce whereby that property was trans
ported at a less rate than that named in
the tariffs published and filed by said
Pennsylvania Railroad company in viola
ton of the statutes"
The indictments are so specified that
in case those found against one company
are sustained on trial they necessarily
must be sustained against the other COM
panies. The various counts pertain to
specific cases in which these special rates
were granted and accepted, and embrace
the period from Jan. l to Dec. 20, 1904.
There are "a counts in each Indictment of
the Standard OIL company and OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad company and a
smaller number against the Vacuum Oil
company.
The indictment against the Vacuum
Oil company is on exactly similar grounds,
that is. charging that special concessions
were accepted from the Pennsylvania
Railroad company.
Bail was fixed at $4,000 for each COM
pany. The cases will probably be tried
at Lockport in October.
The evidence presented in the oil cases
having indicated that shipments of oil
were made from Rochester to Rutland,
VT, over the New York Central railroad.
Boston & Maine and Rutland railroad
lines, United States Attorney Brown asked
that he be given time In which to pre-
pare for an investigation into the con-
nections of these three roads with the
shipments Of the Standard Oil companys
products at the alleged discriminative
rates alleged to have ben given by the
Pennsylvania railroad. At the request
Of Mr.. Brown the grand jury was given
recess for two weeks during which time
he and his assistants will prepare for the
further investigation.

My wife, with old-time, girlish art,
Meets me, and folds her hand in mine
And says, 1.-THE day was long, dear

Then does my day again grow bright,
And life once more seem strangely
sweet,
While all the cares that thronged my way,
Have turned to blossoms at my feet.
What matter that across the way
My neighbor dimes on princely fare?

National Good Roads Association Not In
Politics.

Col. w. II. Moore, president Of the
National Good Roads association, left this
week for the West where arrangements
will be made TO hold the annual national
good roads convention. The association
has been invited to hold this convention
in many cities and it is probable that it
will be in Denver, Colo, or Chicago. 1t
will be one of the largest conventions
ever held in this country and delegates
will be in attendance from every state
and territory.
Hon. Wellington E. Loucks. national or
ganizer for the National Good Roads as
ISOLATION, will arrange series of conven-
tions to be held in Vermont in the next
few weeks. 1t is very probable that the
state convention will be held in Mont
pelier in October during the session Of
the legislatu at which time the state
will be asked to give better aid to the
efficient and able highway department
now under Charles w. Gates Of Franklin.
The National Good Roads association
is the greatest voluntary organization in
the world and has the afhliation of more
than 500, 600 people in the United States.
1t is a non-partisan party body for the
people and by the people which was or
ganized in Chicago in 1900 by delegates
from more than 32 states and territories.
This association has governors of 40 states
on its advisory committee and the state
ments that have gone abroad throughout
Vermont and New Hampshire that 1t is
working solely for a political party now
in the field" is false, and 1t is hoped that
this statement will be suppressed, as
this association is a national association
and never has or will support any par
ticular party but is in the field for the
betterment of the public highways of the
United States and its possessions and
never holds a convention or does any
work in a community or state unless 1t
has been previously invited to do so.
Communities or villages desiring the
aid of this association in matters Of road
construction and organization should
communicate with the National Good
Roads association, Laclede building, St.
Louis.
