STANDARD OIL soUiRMs.

Somehow President Roosevelt seems
to be exceedingly fortunate in the enc
mics he makes.
There is not in the United States an
other concern so unpopular as the
STANDARD Oil company. la the public
mind it has come to stand for all that
is unjust, tyrannical and oppressive in
business the crusher of competition
by underhand methods the builder OF
tremendous fortunes for few at the
expense OF the millions compelled to
paronize it and pay its eXtorlions or
90 without one OF the necessities of
life, the production and control Of
which it monopolizes.
1t may be that the Standard oil COM
pany is misunderstood by the people +;
that it has been unfairly and untruth-
fully attacked by "muck-rakers, p out
Of spite, malice or Tor self-protit But
the fact remains that a bitter prejudice
does exist against this great corpora
ton, 50 deep and widespread that the
man who raises his voice or hand
against the monster at once gains the
attentive ear Of the public, and II he
fights fair has its hearty approval.
Some time ago President Roosevelt
directed Commissioner Garfield of the
department Of commerce and labor to
look up the Standard Oil company, see
if it was doing business in accordance
with the laws and report. Garfield
has done this. He found that the
Standard, through secret arrange
ments with various railroads, has en-
ioyed rebates on its products that have
not been at the command OF its indie
pendent rivals, the result being that it
has undersold them and in time forced
them to the wall. In certain sections,
New England. for instance, the stand
ard has a complete monopoly through
the cooperation of the transportation
companies. It has cleverly covered
up its devices in most cases by a gen.
eral compliance with the letter OF the
law, but not its spirit, so that the com.
missioner finds little opportunity t.
proceed against it. He foes, however
suggest certain legislation calculated
to curtail the unfair advantages undel
which the Standard does business.
Last week President Roosevelt
transmitted Garfeld's report to Con
gress, and sent with it one Of hi.
vigorous messages in which he i'm.
paled the oil trust on his keen lance
The effect on the Standard Oil com.
pany was instantaneous. This great

The local option law, which was
oft-heralded as a stimulant to the hotel
industry, seems to work exactly con-
trary at Saxtons River. There a hotel
was lately sold on condition that the
purchaser should not sell liquor on the
premises. He tried to wiggle out Of it
and applied for a license, but the con-
ditlon held and the house is closed in
consequence.

According to Mayor j. +. Burke OF
Burlington, he doesn't propose to
adopt the Clement program and him
self figure as the tait-ender to the
Clement gubernatorial kite this year.
1t has been proposed to him that the
Democrats fuse with the Clementites,
and that he accept second place on the
so-called independent ticket. While
Burke four years ago was a strong adj
herent OF the Rutland man and fed the
faction in the Democracy that wanted
to endorse Clement, he isn't OF that
stripe this year, but believes the Dem
ocratic party should hoist its own col
ors and 90 it alone. He says he has
been urged to accept the nomination
tor governor, and intimates that ii it is
rendered he will do so, but will not
run with Clement for second place on
a fusion ticket. Burke is the leading
man OF his party in Vermont, and il he
should be nominated would poll a
good vote. He would attract the la

Newspapers and public men who
desire to secure seats on the Bryan
band wagon, are busy telling how
he has broadened and matured men,
tally, changed his views since they
fought him as an anarchist in 1896.
Their purpose, of course, is to make
themselves appear consistent. The
truth of the matter, however, is
that Bryan has not changed his be-
liefs regarding governmental poll
cies. Nothing he has ever said
or done indicates that he has; on
the other hand, he himself states
that his convictions have undergone
no change. Even on the silver
question, he and his followers know
that they were right then and are
yet. The fact that there has been
a great increase in the production
of gold has mitigated the evil of a
contracted currency, but it has not
cured it. We still need free and
unlimited coinage of silver; though
tnat VIII probably not be an issue
in the next national campaign, there
being matters of more immediate
Importance to be attended to; the
all pervading rotten graft, for in
stance. The truth of the matter
seems to be that the slow witted
public has been educated by expert
ence to know that the Chicago
platform of 1896 was the true doc
trine. Another financial panic,
that is inevitable within the next
few years, say the big guns of fl
nance, will convince the voters that
the free coinage of silver is not the
dishonorable scheme of thieves and
anarchists, but that opposition to it
was inspired by dealers in money,
who in all ages have endeavored to
restrict the volume of currency,
from transparently selfish motive.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES

Judge Humphrey, the federal
judge who discharged the packers
on the ground that they were i'm
munc from prosecution, notwith-
standing their confession of con-
spiracy to rob the American pco-
pie, is finding himself in rather
humiliating plight by the fight
that is now being made upon him
by James Hamilton Lewis, corpo-
ration counsel of Chicago, attorney
for the Butte and San Francisco
road, and director in the company
that is constructing the irrigation
system here, whom Humphrey some
time ago ordered to Jail for con-
tempt, because Lewis brought
suit for his clients, the bondhold-
ers of the Boston Water and Light
company, in the state court of Illi-
nois, to collect their claims, amount
ing to $225, 900. Judge Humphrey
had previously in the federal decis-
ion given the property to the Farm
ers' Loan & Trust company, of New
York, without any notice to the
clients of Colonel Lewis. Lewis
fought the contempt to the Supreme
court of the United States, which
has lately held that it will take
jurisdiction of the matter after the
Circuit court of Appeals has passed
upon the question.
The question at stake is far
reaching. If a federal judge can
enjoin citizens from going into a
state court to protect their rights
and force them to come into the
federal court and acknowledge a
decision adverse to them previously
made, he can destroy all that is left
of state rights and state sovereign
ity. The citizen becomes at once a
mere subject of the federal govern
ment and has no rights within the
states nor the states any right to
protect him in the courts of the
state. Many members of congress
and a number of senators have taken
up the subject, as they say that the
extent of the ruling will be equiva-
lent to destruction of the liberty
of every lawyer, and more particu-
larly would fulfill the fear and
prophecy of Thomas Jefferson, when
he pointed out that the ultimate
end of these federal courts, with
such judges as Judge Humphrey,
would be the destruction of all the
states and the constituting of the
citizen mere vassal of the federal
judges, who step by step would first
take their liberty away and Their
their lives.
This issue was once made in the
United States against Chase, and il
has been made in every country
where the despotism of judges has
threatened the destruction of truly
free institutions.

Weather Report.

Like its predecessor the week that
ended Monday July 10, was anbor-
mally warm over the northern and
western counties of the state, the
daily excess averaging 8 degrees.
The temperatures were character
lied by marked uniformity, partic-
ularly in the southwestern part of
the state, the range between the
maximum readings at Boise having
been but 7 degrees. AS during the
preceding week maximum tempera-
lures of 90 degrees or more were re-
corded daily, and readings approx
mating 100 degrees were numerous
in the lower valleys. The highest
temperature at any station from
which reports were received occur
red at Lewiston, maximum OF 102
degrees having been recorded at
that place on the 18th. Night tenn
peratures remained above 90 de-
grees generally and in a few in
stances did not fall below 20 de-
grees. Over the eastern counties
the excess in temperature was not
as marked, although the week was
warmer than usual, the departures
ranging from degrees to degrees.
The average of the maximum tenn
peratures in this part of the state
was 90 degrees or slightly above,
while the minima in only few
cases exceeded 90 degrees. There
was almost total absence of precip-
itation over the northern and west
ern counties, while in the eastern
division of the state thunder show
ers were of quite frequent occur
renee and caused local cooling OF the
heated atmosphere. At some points
the showers were attended by
squat winds of considerable force.

Several Things of Interest.

Edward Stein, the real estate
dealer, returned from a 95-miie
trip to the head waters of the north
fork of the Boise river, where he had
gone to arrange for the assessment
work on the Mammoth mine for this
year. The Mammoth mine was dis
covered in 1868 by w. L. Johnson,
who worked and lived on the prop
erty for 40 years. He died and was
buried there last December. Mr..
Stein states that it was impossible
to cross the Horseshoe summit
with a wagon, the snow still be-
ing ten feet deep at that point. He
had to pack over the snow. On this
trip he also visited the camp of John
F. White and Daniel Richards
group, and who struck a five foot
body of high grade free milling
gold ore while he was there. He
also visited the deserted city of
Graham, of Silver mountain fame.
He found the streets overgrown
with young pines, many houses and
the large silver mill caved in and
now the home of many wild ami
mails. His driver, Walter Paxton,
chased young bear through the
streets. 1.-The mountains are all COW
cred with grass and flowers, said
Mr.. Stein, land the air is heavy
with the perfume of the flowers.

In another column of Maverick
today is published some comments
on Ingalls, little poem, 'Opportu-
nifty" At the recent commencement
exercises of one OF the eastern col
leges a speaker, who, as is the GUS
tom, was hammering platitudes in
to the plastic minds of the students,
took occasion to condemn Ingalls, tor
having written such sentiments.
They are, of course, antagonistic TO
the academic tradition that every
man is the architect of his own
fortune,' and the late Mr.. Ingalls,
may have worked the poetic Ii
censc business beyond the limit in
more ways than one; but still
there is the germ of truth in what he
says. Where he is radically wrong
is when he says opportunity knocks
but once at mans door. Observers,
students of life know that opportu-
nifty seems to station itself at some
mems doors and never leave; while
it never appears to call on others at
all. Some mne see and grasp their
opportunity, while others do not.
That is the difference, from
the mob's view point, be-
tween being smarter than chain
lightning, and mot know
ing ores alive - between
shrewdness and stupidity. Shakes
peare recognized this influence in
shaping human destinies and voiced
it more than once. 1t is the thing
we call '1uck," q stern reality /;
which should not cause the individ-
ual, however firmly the individual
may believe in it, to relax his Ell
forts, to cease striving for success.
