Providence, r. ATTY. Gen. Will
liam H. Moody, in an address here,
said:
Corporations have come to stay, as
has organized labor.
Let us not condemn either, but let

democrats and independents. A great
many members of organized labor
were also out to hear Mr.. Moody.

Findlay, On probate court Judge
Banker overruled the motion filed by
the attorneys of the Standard Oil Co.
for new trial, and imposed a fine Of

It was also ordered that the Grim
inal information pending against John
