A HOPEFUL BEGINNING.

Justice-at least a measure OF
it-has at las, overtaken the
Standard Oil Company. When
it accepted from the Chicago and
Alton Railroad a freight rate
just one-third of the published
rate it was simply pursuing the
methods it has followed from the
beginning Of its career. It was
mainly by secret special rates
and rebates that the Standard
Company was enabled to compel
all other producers of either
crude or refined oil to quit busi-
ness or to sell out to the Standard
on such terms as it chose to
make. .. ,.5,
For years the independent
operators had fruitlessly appeal
ed to the transportation compan-
les for a fair and open rate on
their product. The legislature
was appealed to and laws were
enacted which, it was hoped,
would compel the railways to
cease making secret rates and
giving rebates. Much tedious
and expensive litigation foil ow-
ed; laws were found defective
and unconstitutional. The people
amended the constitution of the
state so that it in express terms
forbade such practices. The
railroad companies became
good" for several years. The
operators, driven to find cheaper
transportation had built a pipe
line which enabled them to avoid
the excessive rates eXacted by
the railroads. 1t was not long
until the Standard had come In
to full control of this line and
ever since then that company has
practically controlled the trans
portation of oil.
1t is hopeful and reassur-
ing sign that however great and
powerful a monopoly may be- !
come, that however long it has.
defied the laws and robbed the
people justice will yet overtake
it.
The fine imposed by JudgeI
Lands, %29 24O,0 is the maxi
mum sum the company could be
assessed under the indictment in
the case, and while 1t is heavy
penalty the Standard Company
can easily pay it. 1t is proba-
BILE, however, that an appeal will
be taken though it is difficult
to see on what grounds it can be
based. The whole defense rest
ed on the plea that an agent of
the Alton railroad company had
lei them to believe they were
given the open rate. Such a
plea is puerile, pitiful and aburd.
The judge brushed it aside, and
carefully analyzing the whole
case, imposed the maximum fine.
The government will now
prosecute the Chicago and Alton
Railroad, which is equally as
guilty in making a secret rate as
the Standard Company is in ac-
cepting it.
The people are aroused and are
determined that the malevolent
influence Of great corporations
shall be destroyed and they COM
PEELED to obey the laws. 1t will !
be done though it involve their
dissolution and prison cell for
those who organize and direct
them. Let the good work go on.

The traffic officials OF the California
lines do not take the criticism of the
merchants of the city kindly, and the
following statement expresses the
views of the officials. A prominent
traffic man had this to say in answer
to the letter sent by the merchants to
the president:
After the earthquake and the fire
the merchants of San Francisco were
unable to take delivery of their freight
on the tracks, and for three months
afterward none of the 9arge receivers
of freight was in a position to take
what was on hand. Not only the ship
ments that were on hand at the time
of the fire accumulated in the rail-
road yards and at points along the
line but the orders for restocking of
wholesalers and retailers arrived be-
fore they were ready to take delivery,
and the records of all the railroads in
San Francisco will show that loaded
cars stood on tracks from one to three
months waiting for consignees to load.
No charge was made by the railroads
for demurrage or storage during that
period In addition, there was an i'm

ROSE JAR-L- O., City. The follow
ing is a recipe for a rose jar: Gather
the rose leaves and let them stand in a
cool place for an hour, the leaves hav-
ing been tossed lightly 10 allow them
TO dry off. Then put them in layers
with salt sprinkIed over each layer.
Put the leaves in a large covered dish
and on several mornings following add
leaves until there is enough stock. Al
low them to remain in the dish for 10
days, but stir every morning Then
transfer the leaves to a glass fruit jar
in the bottom of which has been placed
two ounces of allspice. coarsely
ground. as much stick cinnamon, bro
ken into coarse bits This jar is TO
remain closely covered for six weeks,
at the end of which time the leaves
are ready to be transferred TO a per-
manent jar, one with a double cover
being the best. But before putting the
leaves in the permanent jar have ready
a compound composed of one ounce
each of cloves, allspice, cinnamon and
mace, ground. but not very fine; two
ounces of lavender flowers and a small
quantity of any otner sweet scented
dried flowers well mixed together.
Then put the rose stock in the jar in
layers and sprinkle each layer with
this compound, after which add a few
violet, and pour over the whole quar-
ter of a pint of good cologne This
will last for years, though from time
to time it may become necessary to
add little lavender or orange water
flower or any nice perfume and few
fresh rose petals.

Francisco, the unloading Of which
every contractor and merchant knows
was slow on account of there not be-
ing sufficient teams to haul or men
to do the work. These are the con-
ditions that first started the railroad
congestion and threw railroad opera
tion out of the regular channels and
demoralized service as far back as the
congestion reached, and the railroads
have not recovered from that condition
yet. Had our merchants and our build
ers been in position to unload cars
promptly after the fire there would not
have been congestion and these de-
lays would not have occurred. We do
not say that service would have been
normal as in past years, but we do say
it would have been much better than
it has BEEN The Californian lines have
never refused to receive freight for
any length of time either east or west
bound. We further say that while
Californian products have been slow
in reaching eastern markets, there has
been no suffering to either the pro-
