WANT FEDERAL
CORPORATION LAW
MADE COMPULSORY
Rough Road Ahead of Presi=
dents Pet Bill Unless Con-
cessiOns Are Granted.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 13.-Now that
the main features of the bill to be re-
commended by the President, providing
for a federal Incorporation act have
become known, there is a disposition on
the part of many members of Con-
gress to insist not only upon a full dis
cussion of the measure, but upon
amendments which will, in their judg-
ment, be necessary to make 1t effective
in dealing with great corporations. In
deed 1t Is believed hat nothing short
OF tremendous administration influence
will enact it into law.
The need of a forfeiture clause, by
which the charter of a corporation per-
s~istently violating law may b. revoked,
is declared to be absolutely necessary
II corporations are to be effectively
controlled.
Many congressional lawyers advocate
compulsory instead of voluntary federal
incorporation. They cite as sound the
general principle that il Congress has
constitutional power to grant voluntary
charters to corporations doing an in
terstate business, it has power to re-
quire corporations doing such business
to take a federal incorporation just as
1t has power to require them to comply
with It's laws regulating interstate COM
merce. q
Attorney-General Wickersham has
embodied the ideas of President Taft
and his cabine regarding a system
OF Federal Incorporation in a bill which
probably will go to Congress next week.
The principal feature will be the crea-
ton of a form of holding company un-
der a national charter, which may on
troll business of subordinate companies
organized ID State laws. Proper
Limitations will be provided against
the embarkation of any such corpora
tions in the business of ~discounting
bills, receiving deposits and issuing
notes.
All charters will be subject to the
approval of the commissioner of cor
porations. The minimum amount OF
capital stock will be limited to 800, 900,
not less than $4,000 of which shall be
available to commence business.
Corporations will be authorized to
create two OF, more kinds of stock, the
preferences and designations of which
are TO be clearly stated, in the articles
of association, but at no time shall the
preferred stock exceed two-thirds of
the capital stock paid for in cash or
property. No perferred stock can be
issued except as specified in h orig
inal articles of association, saw with
the consent of the holders of two-thirds
of each class of outstanding stock.
An important provision will be one
requiring every subscriber to pay to
the treasurer of a corporation 10 per
cent. of the amount of his subscription
in cash. and directors will be author
lied to assess stock not exceeding the
whole par value thereof; or If the stock
is not of par value, then to the amount
agreed to be paid for 1t.
Provision is made for exhaustive re-
ports to the government by every ma
tional corporation.

mains to cause a flow sufficient to flush
the river.
Paterson, in 1905, started its chan
Gerry suit and paid $1,000 each to
Messrs. Grlggs and Gourley to act as
special counsel, and the matter has
dragged along in various forms unit
last week, when the final decree was
granted. The defendant
through William H. Corbin and Mich
ael Dunn, set up the claim that it acted
more as q tiltering and pumping gent
than as a medium for the sale of
water, and declared that other COM
panies were responsible.
The order, IN effect, restraints the
water company from diverting any
waters for the purpose of sale, after
April l, 1911. The reason given for the
delay In the decree taking effect is to
give tine company ample opportunity
to seek Legislative relief or to appeal.
1t was intimated at the time the de-
cree was granted that the water COM
pany would not rest under this order
and relinquish rights from which huge
profits are derived. Therefore, the ap-
peal does not find Paterson's legal
force unprepared.

Controlled Newspaper.

The Atchison Globe says that no ad-
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being occa-
stoned by the charge often made nova
days. that the big advertisers direct
the editorial policy Of newspapers.
The experience Of the Globe Is the
experience OF most newspapers. The
merchant who does a great deal Of adj
vertising Is more interested in the cir
culation department Of newspaper
than In the editorial department. II a
daily paper goes to the homes Of the
people, and Is read by them. be Is salts
fed. and IL may chase after any theory
or fad. for all he cares. He has troubles
of his own. and he isn't trying to shout
der those Of the editorial brethren.
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside Of the editorial rooms.
and a good many Of them. more's the
pity; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space.
The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often con-
trolled by chronic ofIiceseekers. whose
first concern Is their own interests.
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations. and the voice Of
such newspapers Is always raised In
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by its owner. and he
is supposed. to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts Of
times; there are people who consider
It his duty to insult his advertisers.
Just to show that he Is free and indie
pendent II he shows a decent respect
for his patrons. who pay him their
money. and make II possible for him 20
carry on the business. he Is "subsi-
died" or controlled" The newspaper
owner Is business man. like the dry
goods man or the grocer. The mer.
chants are expected 10 have considera-
ton for their customers. and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who spends FIVE dollars with
them. but the publisher Is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron
age Of his friends. II is a funny COM
bination when you think 1t over

c0UNTRY'S WEALTH IN OIL
Industry That Has Grown TO Enor-
nous Proportions Within a Few
Years.

The production OF oil in the United
States has grown from nothing at the
time OF its discovery to enormous pro
portions. Millions OF barrels have been
taken from the country near the west
ern slope Of the Alleghenies in west
ern Pernsyfvania. and millions more
from the districts In West Virginia
and Ohio. Indiana has yielded its
shVe and Illinois has been productive
nfyond the dreams Of avarice.
II remained. however. for Kansas
and Oklahoma, together with the In
dian Territory. to open the eyes OF the
modern drtller and capitalists. When
the soil was first tapped in the wild
eating operations OF that section
great gushers rewarded the efforts OF
the men who had the courage and cap
itai to engage in the enterprise. The
usual rush followed. but many thou
sands Of acres had been already taken
up and the war for supremacy began.
