their party. 1t also provided
that each candidate make oath
to stand to the ticket thus made
and not to make an independent
race or to aid or contenance any
one in so doing. In fact the ac-
ton Of the Committee seemed to
be only to meet the demands Of
the candidates and the popular
wave of their party and at the
same time close every door Of
escape to any one who might feel
inclined to flee from supporting
the one who wins over him.
From a Republican view point
the committee should be congrat-
ulated in meeting the demands
and for fair square deal to all
aspirants and in demanding that
debauchery with whiskey and
money should not be tolerated.
In this we and all good citizens
must extend congratulations. Mr..
M. Rey Yarberry rendered his
resignation as chairman in a few
we'll chosen words and announced
his desire to be the nominee for
County Attorney. The Commit
tee accepted the resignation and
elected Mr.. w. A. Coffey chair
man and Mr.. Geo. Suits Secre-
tary, and adjourned.

The $29,OOO,OOO fine against
the Standard Oil Company was
knocked out by the instructions
of the Judge. That the fine was
excessive, out of proportion, and
largely made as a sensational adj
vertisement we hardly have a
doubt, but the Standard Oil
Company was evidently proven
guilty of gross violation of law
and should be made to meet a
reasonable penalty. If it is to
b e permitted t o discriminate
against communities and bust
ness concerns, allowed to crush
out competitors at its own pleas
ure, the day is not far distant
when its full force will be felt.
Corporate power and greed must
be checked or the final reckoning
will be a memorable one. The
people will not always endure I'M
just treatment and oppression.
