necessary for the State to show the con-
nection OF the three companies. Several
States had failed to secure evidence Of
such connection. the State Of Texas
notably.\
Speaking OF the progress Of these suits,
Mr.. Hadley said, in his speech at SPRING
field:
1.-THE answer OF the defendants was that
they were independent n competing
companies the one with the other. The
court appointed Judge Robert A. Anthony
Of Fredericktown, Mo-, to hear the testi-
mony and report to It the findings OF law
and of fact. The taking Of testimony be-
gan in July, 1906, and the States case
was concluded In March, 1906. During
that time testimony was takeh in FIVE
states, and for the first time the entire
plan of organization and the business
methods OF the Standard OIL trust were
disclosed, AND this was accomplished as
against the most persistent efforts to de-
lay the case n to prevent the witnesses
from giving testimony. H.. Clay Pierce
OF the waters-P Pierce OIL Company, during
the progress OF this litigation threatened
that he would resort to every method pos
sible to defeat the suit and to wear me
out by delay II / did not consent to a GER
tain adjustment. The fact that l did not
consent is a~bundantly demonstrated by the
u%nrelenting efforts Of his lawyers to make
his threat good.
1.-THE defendants began their testimony
in September, 1906, and concluded 1t in
January, 1907. The case was argued be-
for the commissioner, Judge Anthony. in
the latter part OF February, 1907, and his
decision was rendered in May OF that year
in favor Of the State, sustaining every
that i had made against the de-
PENDANTS. The defendants filed exceptions
to the decision of Judge Anthony, which /
at once asked the court to set down for
hearing. The court set the case for argu-
ment in October, 1907, n on the 23d OF
that month the case was finally argued
and submitted to the Supreme Court Of
this State for decision"
In his suit. Mr.. Hadley proceeded wisely
--shrewdly indeed--by charging that the
Waters Pierce ON Company ana the Re-
public OIL Company were in a conspiracy
with the Standard on Company to evade
and practically to nuIify the laws Of this
State relating to trusts n monopolies.
He laid hIs plans to catch the Standard
OIL Company by showing that It was, in
reality. the chief offender, controlling and
using the smaller companies az a cloak
with which 10 cover It's transactions in
this State, and he has so involved the
giant octopus that It can hardly escape the
penalties provided for breaking the MIS-
souri, laws.
The Marshall republican., 1908-10-23
WHO Is THE BENEFIcIARY2

The proceedings had reached the point
In February. 1906, when certain facts had
to be established Mr.. Hadley went direct
to New York and began taking the testi-
mony of officers and directors Of the
Standard OIL Company. He got some Of
9 on the stand after chasing them
around New York till they were forced to
answer his summons, but they refused to
answer his questions ION advise Of coun-
sell" Then came the test between the
young Attorney General and the intel
lectual and legal giants of the bar, en-
ployed by the great combination Of capt.
tai that had for years defied Missouri an
other States. The result was that Mr..
Hadley found a way to compel Rogers and
other officials Of the great corporation TO
take the stand and answer questions like
any other citizen, and In the end, he had,
In permanent record, the testimony on
which to present his case to Judge An
thony, who had been appointed by the Su-
preme Court to near and report upon the
facts involved,
Although the Supreme court has had
the complete case under consideration
about one year, n declslon has yet been
handed down.
II a decision should be delivered before
the election, sustaining Mr.. Hadley's con-
tentlon that the several Oil companies en-
tered into and maintained a conspiracy to
evade the laws OF the State and to prevent
competition in the oil business. Inc assess
ing the penalties prescribed by Missouri
laws for such a conspiracy or combina-
ton, the people could not be restrained
from giving Mr.. Hadley an overwhelming
majority for Governor. Such a decision
is not only probable but, with the report
OF Judge Anthony before II, the Court can
hardly avoid a decision in favor of the
State. Until the decision is handed down
full credit for the great work done by Mr..
HadIey may be reserved by Mr.. Cowherd
and his Democratic friends, but II the
suit results In FORGETTING the charter OF the
waters-P Pierce company. in excluding the
Standard OIL Company and its puppet or
CARNATIONS from the state, and in heavy
fines, with possibly a confiscation OF prop
erty tpossible under the iaw), then Mr..
Cowherd's estimate OF the usefulness and
success OF the Republican Attorney Gen-
eral win be subject to painful revision.
Hence these %sneers!

PEOPLE VS.. STANDARD OIL.
Supreme Court Commissioners Report
a Victory, But Supreme Court
Decision Yet to Come.

One OF the most foolish attacks upon
the record Of Attorney General Hadley
was that made by Mr.. Cowherd when he
said in his sedalia speech that in four
years the present Attorney Generals Of
flee "has reached the maximum In news
paper advertisement and the minimum In
court achievement" and that his reputa-
ton for trust busting has been made not
by winning but by bringing suits"
This unfair statement shows the depth
OF Democratic duplicity. Unable to take
away the laurels won by Mr.. Hadley by
reciting facts connected with his official
record, Cowherd started out to discredit
him through such sneering remarks as
those quoted. Mr.. Hadley has met this
crude attack so successfully that Cow
herd has become more careful in dealing
with the official record OF his brilliant OPP
some facts about the Hadley record which
nay have escaped public attention. though
we'll known to cowherd and the Demo-
cratic leaders.
One great effort Of Mr.. Hadley has been
to break the hold which the Standard OIL
Company had on Missouri under Demo-
cratic administrations. When he became
Attorney General he found that giant
trust furnishing in this State, with a
grasp upon the oil trade and upon com
mercial interests which looked too strong
to be broken. That the big octopus had
its dangerous tentacles fastened around
financial and business institutions, and
that 1t had driven out all competition in
the oil business and had successfully vio-
lated the laws Of the State. was plain
enough, but to locate It's head and deal It
an effective blow was not an easy task
by any means.
Mr.. Hadley proceeded on the theory that
the Standard OIL Company was doing its
business in this State under disguise, and
that puppet organizations represented It.
Accordingly suit was instituted in March.
1906. against the Standard on Company,
the Waters-Pierce Oh Company. and the
Republic on Company, charging that they
were in a conspiracy TO violate the laws
OF Missouri. These suits could only be re-
sisted by the companies by claiming inde-
pendent control Of their affairs. II was

BETTER THAN MEDICINE.
Breathe Hyomei's Tonic Healing and
be Cured Of Catarrh.

Nature has a remedy for catarrh. 4
treatment that is far better than dos
ing the stomach with medicine.
1t is the healing oils and balsams of
Hyomei which medicates the air you
breathe reaching the most remote air
cells in the nose, throat and lungs,
killing all catarrhal germs. and restor-
ing health to the mucous membrane.
In using Hyomei you are treating
your catarrhal troubles with the only
natural remedy, for it gives a curative
air bath to the air passages that has
as powerful healing and antiseptic
effect as that found in the mountains
where the pine forests give off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
Breathe the invigorating and healing
Hyomei and see how quickly you will
get relief from your catarrhal troubles.
Bowditch, Webster & Co, have seen so
many cures, even of the worst cases OF
catarrh, with offensive breath, rails
ing Of mucus, frequent sneezing
droppings in the throat and spasmodic
coughing. that they feel warranted in
selling Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee to refund the money if it
does not do all that is claimed for it
They take all the risk. If the treat
ment does not help you. there will not
be penny's expense, while if it cures.
the cost is nominal as a complete
Hyomei outfit sells for only $1.00.
Sold and guaranteed in Watervile
