JUDGE ANDERSoN's
TECHNICAL RULING

The obstacle that prevented the
Government from securing verdict
against the Standard Oil Company
was the Judicial demand for proof
that Il cents per hundred pounds
was the legally published rate for
all shipments of oil over the Chi
cago Il Alton Railroad from Whit
ing, Ind, to East st. Louis.
Eighteen cents was the rate which
n shipper would be charged on the
class Of freight In which oil was in
cluded between the points mention
ed. The rate actually paid by Stand
ard Oil was o cents per hundred
pounds. Eighteen cents was the
rate charged against the Oil Trust
on the bills of lading, but on the
monthly settlement of the freight
bills the difference was adjusted
and @ cents was the rate actually
paid.
But the Government could not
pi'Nt tiluJ 10 CtlliS was Ltt regular,
legally published tariff rate, and so
1t failed in the case.
No one will doubt that Is cents is
what an independent oil shipper
would have been charged or that
Standard Oil was charged Is cents
for show and paid g in fact. No one
will doubt there was a moral crime
and violation of the law, whether
or not the violation was susceptible
of technical, legal proof Everyone
will believe that the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals imposed
harsh restrictions and the popular
verdict will be that it is all in fine
demonstration Of the fact that the
law does not reach "thc malefactor
of great wealth. st. Louis Repub-
lie.

A NOTABLE POLITICAL LEADER.

New York City has probably produced no more
interesting character in many ways than Rich
ard Croker. There is certainly no more widely
known political organization in the United States
than Tammany Han. II was during his connec-
ton with this political institution that Mr.
Croker became "A recognized leader of his party
Considering his advantages and environments
of youth, it is worthy Of note that this man
rose head and shoulders above others whose
possibilities were far greater. His family were
Protestants-Orange He was born near
Cork in Ireland, on November "a lS43 His
father was blacksmith and poor. He migrated
70 America with his children when Richard was
only three years old. and settled in a squatter'a
shanty near 99th street, in what is now part of
Central Park
Early in life Mr. Croker learned the art of
handling men, which knowledge was of great
help TO him when he became the leader of Tam
many. 1t might be said that much of his sue.
cess can be attributed to his wonderful execu-
tive ability. Mr.. CrOkers advent into politics
was during the reign of Tweedism. To those
that know the conditions existing under the
leadership of Tweed it would be wasting words
20 say that a man with the peculiar ability OF
Richard Croker political necessity.
Returning to the old days and comparing them
with the present it will be noted that Tammany
Hall is of the political organizations that
has stood the test of party changes. In many
cases of political organizations depending as
they must do, upon the party that supports
them, IL Is interesting to note the success of this
institution through all OF its changes OF leader
ship. Under leadership has Tammany Han
fourshed as it did under that of Richard Croker
