primary election. The Oil company
will probably ask for time to take
testimony, to ge deposition and to
present their side of the case. If
it is postponed until after the pri-
maries, opponents of the officials
viii claim that it is done for politi-
cal purposes again. These consider
ations are to be regretted as being
intruded into case Of this import
ance
If violations of the law are shown
lin a number of instances, the law
provides fines of 5000 to $500 for
each instance. To bring these cas-
ses and set forth proofs upon which
to base fines will take time and
care and will engage a good share
of the time of the attorney generals
Office.
We. think the people of the state
are interested in knowing what are
the facts in the case, whether the
defendent company has discriminate
ed in the sale of it's product be pun
ished. We are not prepared to say
that the people of the state want
the company driven out of the state
summarily in the distribution of oil
and its products. 1t might work
considerable hardship to consumers
If the company were turned out bag
and baggage on the spur Of the mo-
ment and before another company
was prepared to engage in oil dis
tribution. Nor are we prepared to
say that the penalties of laws should
be applied for punitive as much as
exemplary purposes. If Standard
Oil has been guilty Of violating the
laws of the state it should be pun
ished in way that will be exemp-
larry and corrective. It's property
should not be confiscated merely
because the state has the power to do
SO or because some ardent trust
buster may insist upon it. The pol
icy Of confiscation applied to indi-
viduals who have done wrongs would
find Immediate opposition. We think
the same spirit in the enforcement
of law should be applied to all Of
tenders.

THE STANDARD OIL CASE

The first antitrust case Of inn
portance to be brought in the state
is that against the Standard Oil COM
pany Of Indiana, which has been cit
ed to appear by the secretary of
state, Alfred Blaisdell, on complaint
of Attorney General McCue, to show
cause why its right to do business
in the state shall not be revoked.
The law makes it the duty of the
secretary of state to proceed at once
in cases where violation Of the law
is brought to his attention and gives
him power to revoke the charter Of
the company if sufficient cause is
shown.
From a political point of view now
is a rather unfortunate time for the
case in question. It has already been
said by the political opponents Of the
officials who have the case in hand
that it was begun for political pur-
poses, from the fact that the primar-
les are not far away, and that it was
brought for the purpose Of influenc-
ing votes In the election. This In
ference is not Just or fair to the Of
ficials in question and does no credit
to the persons seeking to establish
it in the minds of the people The.
complaints in the matter were form
ally filed and the officials did their
duty in preparing for speedy in
vestigation. To have failed to do
SO would be to have failed to do their
4 sworn duty under the law.
The case Is an important one and
should it be decided against the COM
pany will have a far reaching effect.
The Standard Oil company has fifty
to seventy-ive oil depots In the state
and property to the value of a good
many thousand dollars. It's right
to do business in the state is valuable
4 and a case that involves this amount
OF property will need the careful
and conscientious attention OF the
official who has the matter under
his charge. Property cannot be con-
fscated or destroyed except upon a
showing that such procedure is
warranted by the facts, and no Of
fetal who has a fine comprehension
OF his duty will enter any order
until all testimony to be presented
has been heard, clear case has
been established and calm and jul
dicial consideration given to every
phase OF it. ~
The case Is set for hearing the.
first Of june. II can hardly be dis
posed OF, we should say, before the

CAPABLE AND CONSISTENT

i The Jamestown Alert, in speak
Ing Of the recent effort to convey
false Impression with reference t
Mr.. Little, in his candidacy for tn
senate, says:
The Insurgent opposition to
Col. Little Of Bismarck is try
ing to discredit that gentle
mans candidacy for the senate
before the people, by re-printing
in supplement form long al
legged legislative record which
was intended to show that as a
member of the legislature Col.
Little has acted In bad faith
with his constituents and
against the best interests of the
people Of the state. This al
legged expose" was originally
printed in the Grand Forks Her
aid, by request, but chiefly serv-
ed to give Col. Little an oppor-
tunity to show the mis-state-
ments, misinformation, and half
stated propositions which left
the other half unsaid, and which
thereby distorted the entire ac-
ton OF the senator as member
of the legislature. The whole
article was cunningly prepared
and launched with the object Of
boosting competitor in the SEN
4 atorial race. Col. Little's reply
promptly disclosed the falsity Of
the statements and showed clear
ly that they were prepared and
distributed purely for political
purposes. OF the four leading
senatorial candidates in the field
Mr.. Little has been called upon
probably oftener than any other
one, to go on record on ques-
tions of conflicting interest and
of direct Importance to the peo-
pie Of the state. His votes in the
legislature, his work as a mem
s Der Of important committees, his
remarks in the assembly hall
have been entirely consistent and
above board, much more so, per-
haps. than that of any other
candidate now before the people.
The attack made via the Grand
Forks Herald has no weight with
anyone who knows the facts, and
Col. Little's prompt refutation
of the differences and innen-
does, ought to satisfy any voter
in whose mind doubt might
have been created by the politi-
cal canards SO widely distribut-
ed.
