WHO BOUGHT

Fordyce Refuses to Make Known His

CHeraId Special)

Austin Texas, Dec. SIS. w. For
dyce of St. Louis, who on yesterday
purchased all of the Texas property
of the Waters Pierce Oil company
for approximately one and half mil
lion dollars, today refused to make
known who his associates in the deal
are. 1t is currently reported that the
state probably will require an aft
davit from Fordyce declaring that he
and his associates have no connection
with the Standard or Waters Pierce
Oil companies. Such an affidavit may
lead to a renewal of the fight on the
Waters Pierce company. 1t is claim
ed Fordyce has been a business as
sociate of Pierce for many years and
it is said is buying the property for
Pierce. Pierce, who was acquitted of
a perjury charge here yesterday, is
still in the city and is making no
plans for his departure, so far as
known Fordyce today told Receiver
Eckhardt that he will probably make

FOR ALASKA DAY.

Resolutions passed at a meeting Of Maskans in this city, the speeches made by Mayor Miller and others, and the messages received rom Al aska communities. show. in an elo- Queut way. the popularity of the sug, gcstion that one day be set aside as Alaska day in the city of Seattle.
 Alaska's more pressing needs are reasonably we'll known. The needs emphasized at the meeting held in this city are urgent. and every effort should be made to convince congress of the fact.
 The request that congress be urged to appropriate sLooo.ooo with which to build a trunk wagon road system from Valdez to Nome, via the Tan. ana and Yukon rivers, and such other main lines as may be deemed neces- sary by the board of road commission ers;" and the request that congress be urged 10 provide more adequate aids to navigation. are reasonable re- quests
 The people of Seattle will earnestly and energeticary support these de mauds. Seattle will speak with one voice in behalf of Alaska. i
 But the public officials, citizens and business organizations may do very much more; they may urge their friends elsewhere to demand justice for Alaska. and to press the demand upon the attention of congress.
 Alaska must be treated fairly Good American citizens have gone into the north to develop the country They have been pouring vast amount of wealth into the states. They have received little in return. If Alaska had used the wealth of the northern country to perfect system of gov erument. Go build roads and schools, and to provide needed marine safe guards. instead of sending the wealth into the states to become the com mon property of the American people, and to swell the total of the nations wealth. Alaska would today be in a happier political industrial and com. merciaI state.
 The people everywhere in this cour. try should demand that Alaska be accorded a fair deal by the federal government Now is the time to make the demand, It should be diuued into the ears of congress uu- uI congress responds by making proper provision for the people of the north.

Six of the eight Night Riders" on trial for killing Capt. Rankin were found guilty of murder in the first degree at Union City. Tenn, yester- day. The other two were convicted of murder in the second degree and promptly sentenced to 9 years in the state prison. The verdict shows that public sentiment in the south is still wholesome and will do much to stamp out the uetarious depredations of these towards. who shielded by masks. were wont to amuse them selves by whipping women and lynch ing old men.
 The verdict was a triumph for law and order. The Night Riders" used every sort of intimidation on the jur- ors and even attempted to assassinat the prosecuting attorney. Witnesses had to be conducted to the court room by armed guards. Under these conditions the jury's verdict was al- most as unhOped for as it was vel, come.

OF GREAT IMPORTANCE

The decision of the supreme court of
the United States, which compels the
dissolution of the tobacco trust as an
unlawful combination in restraint of
trade, and also the decision of the
supreme court of Missouri, ousting
three Standard Oil corporations from
the state upon the same ground, are of
very great Importance. The Sacra-
mcnto Bee believes that these decisions
should go far to silence such apollo
gists for trusts and defenders of mon
opoly as Chancellor Day, of Syracuse
university.
And since there is law to break mp
and punish such combinations" says
Il contemporary, there should also
be law to destroy all others of like
character, no matter how cunningly
they may have organized for the pur-
pose Of escaping the operation of the
old common law principle against con-
spiraacies in restraint of trade. And
yet there are hundreds of trusts claim.
ing to bc consultations that the laws
cannot reach.
Bryan has always been right in his
sweeping condemnation of all industrial
trusts and ~mOnopolics. They should lie
destroyed. But their destruction need
not involve injury to industries. On
the contrary, tho era of free coInpcti.
ton resulting from their dissolution
would increase prosperity and make il
more general.
I'm logic and common sense, there
is no reason for breaking up one sort OF
combination that does not apply to all
others whose aim is likewise restraint
of trade and control Of markets.
Whether II trust he a combination
of Independent concerns or an actual
consolidation of them under one owner,
ship, the results to the public are the
same. The destruction of competition
should not he permitted. no matter how
attempted.
MOI corporation should be allowed t.
control the production and sale of any
commodity of general and necessary
use, whether it be coal, steel, oil. sugar
or other commodity. Nor should AM
man or set of men, or any corporation
be permitted to own or control railway
