STANDARD PLANS
STAND-PAT FIGHT

New York, Nov. ia representa-.
tive of the Standard Oil company
spoke with authority concerning a re-
port that the company was preparing
to voluntarily dissolve, as follows:
ANY reports that steps have been
taken by the Standard Oil company to
dissolve are entirely without founda,
ton. Surely such a report carries its
own contradiction.
''The Standard Oil company adopted
its present form of doing business In
obedience to the law when the orig.
inal organization was condemned by
one state. We have done business
as the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey for more than a dozen years
and until 1t can be shown that our
organization is Illegal we shall cen.
tinue to do business.
1T is an expensive ordeal to turn
over corporation of the size of the
Standard Oil, with its worldwide
ramifications, and one not likely to be
undertaken voluntarily. Besides
what form does the government wish
fhe oil business to take? You cannot
legislate gallon of oil out of exls-
tence. The business must be con
Quoted. Even II 1t should be held
that we have done wrong, 1t would not
save us from the consequences to dis.

THEY ARE ALL WRONG.
ASK STATES TO REPEAL
Forthcoming Bill to Be Acted Upon
by Congress Will Contain Pro-

Which Are Declared Unjust Both
to Policyi;oIdsrs and Companies.

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE work of the
special commission of Is insurance
commissioners and actuaries selected
at the suggestion of President Roose-
welt to determine upon an equitable
form for governing all life insurance
companies has been practically COM
p,eted and an agreement reached for
the foundation of a bill which will be
drafted for enactment by congress at
its session this winter.
Chairman O'Brien last night said
that during the hearing the smaller
and younger concerns clamored for
general modification or the standard
form and provisions of policies and
the commission has granted their re-
quest as far as possible. AT the
same time," he said, I'VE endeavored
to make an equitable arrangement
that would satisfy the contenders to
the proposed modification-the larger
companies. We believe we have
found an equitable finding and will 50

Roosevelt's personal representative,

At yesterday afternoons session the
commission passed a resolution de.
claring that retaliatory laws are
wrong in principle and plan upon the
policyholders and companies, in
curing unnecessary expense. Such
retaliatory legislation should be re-
pealed. The resolution will be incor-
porated in the forthcoming bill and

PROPOSED BY NEWLY FORMED
ASSOCIATION.
WANT. BIG APPROPRIATION
WIN Ask Congress for Many Millions
to Dig Great International Ditch
Chicago Drainage Canal Helps to
solve the Problem and Lessen Es-
timated Expense.

st. Louis, Nov. 1.-THE Lakesto-the-
Gulf Deep Waterways association be-
came fact yesterday when a plan
Tor permanent organization and re-
ports OF committees were adopted at
the mai session. The objects of the
ASSOCIATION and the principles for
which IT stands are set forth ia an
address to the public adopted by the
convention. The address says in
part:
TIE proposed deep water way is to
extend from the Chicago drainage ca
nal through the valleys of the Des-
PLANES and Illinois rl, ers to the
Mississippi river at Grafton, ILL.,. and
thence down the Mississippi to st.
Louis and is to have a minisrum
depth of IA feet throughout. We
recommend that for the purposes
OF meeting probable future needs of
navigation the minimum depth over the
mitre stills of the locks should be Il
feet initial construction"
DIOl0Cl
as shown by engineers estimates was
due mainly to the existence of the
prominent barrier between the great
lakes and the Mississippi valley.
This chief obstacle to the prosecution
OF this project has been removed by
the drainage canal. According to es-
Inmates based upon a rcesnt survey
by United States engineers, the work
remaining to be done in order to CON-
plete the deep waterway channel 10
st. Louis will cost $31 100000.
Having considered the deep water
day enterprise from Chicago to st.
Louis, it now remains to deal with
the subject of it's further projection
southwark to the Gulf of Mexico.
I'm conjunction with the prosecution
of the deep waterway enterprise from
st. Louis northward, it becomes at
once matter of grave importance
that adequate provision should be
made by congress for the application
Of work of such substantial character
as to lower the river as to give axe1-
ness to the channel and stability to
caving banks, the accomplishment OF
WHICH is the necessary basis of any
plan for permanent improvement and
the deepening of that part of the
river.
Believing the present transporta-
ton facilities of the United States to
be inadequate and wholly unsatisfac-
tory, we favor appropriations by con-
gress in sufficient amounts to create
such additional transportation facilit-
les as the growing needs of the nation
demand and to the end that such APP
preparations shall be secured this as
ISOLATION recommends to its represen-
tatives in congress, diligent, assidu-
Gus and untiring efforts to secure the
necessary means with which to devel-
op deep waterway"

DOUBLE TAXATION coNouERs.

Humi|lating Az Is the admission that
the Vermont legislature has failed to
keep an implied promise to solve the
double taxation problem ii would have
been more humiliating, It seems To us,
to have taken leap in the dark and
have landed in deep water We are
aware that this view does not coincide
with that Of many persons. who believed
that even a disastrous leap would have
been better than none at all, taking the
ground that il would at any rate have
indicated our good intentions. We can
not, however, see the ACCESSIBILITY of
saddlng something onto the state for
n period Of two years at least, which
would terminate diastrously for the
commonwealth. AS for the failure Of
the general assembly TO enact law
TO remove the double taxation evil, IL
can all be summed up in the absolute
uncertainty of the members; they were
completely at sea on the proposition,
and their perpiexitv was heightened by
the failure Of the special committee
which confessed its inability TO present
any proposition that was practicable OF
applicable to Vermont conditions Thus
led by blind leadership, can the leGis-
latrre be blamed for not enacting law
