GIVES II SIX MONTHS
DECISION IN TOBACCO CASE Ex-
PEcTEp ON MAY 18Th, LAST
DECISION DAY.

Washington.-The Standard OH
Company of New Jersey and its nine
teen subsidiary corporations were de-
elared by the Supreme Court OF the
United States to be a conspiracy and
combination In restraint OF trade
1t also was held 10 be moDopollz-
ing Interstate commerce in violation
OF the Sherman antitrust law
The dissolution OF the com binatioa
was ordered to take place within siI
months
Thus ended the tremendous struggle
on the part of the government 10 pu,
down by authority Of Law. comaina-
ton which it claimed was menace to
the industrial and economic advance-
ment OF the entire country.
At the same time, the court inter
preted the Sherman antitrust Law so
~ to limit Its application to acts OF
undue" restraint of trade. and not
every restraint Of trade.
1t was on this point that the only
discordant note was heard in the
court.
Justice Harlan dissented. claiming
that the cases already decided by the
court had determineG-once for all
that the word undue" or "unreason-
able" or similar words were not in
the statute.
He declared that the reasoning OF
the court in arriving at its finding
was in effect legislation which be-
lonSed in every instance to Congress,
and not to the courts.
Ever since the decree in this case
in the lower court, the United' States
Circuit Court for the eastern district
Of Missouri was announced. hope has
been expressed by the business
world" that the law would be modified
30 as not to interfere with what was
declared honest business.
The opinion Of the court was an
nounced by Chief Justice White. In
printed form 1t contained more than
10000 words. For nearly an hour the
chief Justice discussed the case from
the bench. going over most OF the
points in the printed opinion. but not
once referring to it in order to re-
fresh his memory.
Before him sat an audience of the
most famous men of the country.
Senators and representatives left
their chambers in the capitol to listen
to the epoch-making decision of the
court. Most eager to hear were At.
torney General Wickersham and
Frank B. Kellogg. special counsel for
the government, who had conducted
the great fight against the Standard
Oil.
Many expected that the decision in
the dissolution suit against the Tobac-
co corporation would be handed down
Immediately after the decision in the
Standard Oil case.
This was not done. but the decision
ts expected May 29th, the last decis-
ion day Of the court until next Octo-
ber.
In short the court held that the
technical words Of the statute were
to be given the meaning which those
words had in the common law and in
the law Of the country at the time
Of the enactment. This meaning of
the words. according to the court,
called for the exercise OF reason in
determining what restraints on trade
wei prohibited.
President Taft and Cabinet will
consider Immediately the entire trust

RECORDS ALWAYS PROVE BEST
GUIDE.

Another thing that McGraw does at
the outset is to disabuse his players
minds of the idea that printed records
do not amount to anything. He firmly
declares that figures never lie" and
that the nan with the best record Is the
best player 90 times out of a 100. When
these two things are firmly implanted in
a playe~ mind he realizes that he must
step out and deliver the goods to be re-
tained.
Another important feature OF Nc
travis school Is that he puts no re-
strlctions on the personal conduct Of
the players. He tells them at the out
set that they are taken on their own
responsibility, and that unless they
realize that responsibility and AXE care
OF themselves they will be the means OF
their wi undoing.

The MoCfraw school OF baseball also
teaches that tho manager must DO alb

should assume tho entire responsibility

blame accordingly. Hover In his life

When Bresnahan took charge OF the

little advice.
THE main thing you've got TO do,
Roger" said McGraw, rs 10 get rid OF
the bone on your team. No matter
now much you know about baseball
YOU cannot make another man think.
A bright young fellow who can think
is worth more to you than a fairly
good veteran who never did use his

Another idea that McGraw imparts 10
his pupils Is never 20 let the loss or the

them. lie says that n team should be
built to last a season and not Il wees.
The machine must be sen straight
ahead through q season and not waver

The Kaiser and the Gastwirth
on Temperance.

The German Kaiser has just de-
liyered a temperance address, in
which he censured the prolonged
beer orgies of German students.
This he has done frequently. In
Germany, as in the United States,
there are official organs of sa-
looms, the chief of them being
Gastwirth. 1t attacks the Kaiser,
saying that he shared in the stu
dent beer festivals when a student
at Bonn and that he did not re-
frain from drinking after he be-
came emperor. Then it urges
Germans to disregard "the Kais-
er's present views" and "to drink
as much as their thirst calls for
and as their stomachs and pockets
will allow"
1t tells the Germans to remem.
Der that bismarck, the maker of
Germany, drank steadily from

ings at various times from illness

One of the causes for the enor-
nous amount of crime in this
country, and the poor protection
OF the people, is the trifling pun
ishment imposed by many judges.
A criminal is run down. Perhaps
resisted arrest and given a great
deal of trouble, but he is let off
With a nominal fine, or sentence is
suspended when the man ought to
have been imprisoned at hard
labor for a year. Three hundred
years ago penalties were too se-
we're. Men were hanged for what
would now be regarded as minor
offenses. Now we have gone to
the other extreme, and society,
rather than the criminal, needs
protection. The cause is largely
our corrupt politics. The votes of
the mass of criminals and semi.
criminals in cities are controlled
by ward politicians. The latter
look after their voters if they get
into trouble with the law. The
criminal goes out to commit other
assaults, or to make life miserable
for other citizens.-Herald and
Presbyter.

Maine is Safe.

So many conflicting reports con-
corning the recent election 10
Maine have been circulated that
many people are in doubt as to
what the result OF the election
really a The first report sent
out stated that constitutional pro-
hibition had been repealed by a
small majority. Then it was said
that prohibition had won a small
majority. Again the liquor jour-
nails and papers generally reported
that the "wets" had won by 26 of
a majority. Many metropolitan
papers, as well as others, contained
both editorial and news comments
on the cause and effect of the re-
peal. Some of these sermons and
observations now make rather dry
reading since the final count shows
that prohibition has been retained
in the constitution of Maine by a
majority of approximately roc.
This is very close in a total vote
of more than 100, 900, but when the
men, measures and money used
by the liquor interests are consid-
cred the actual sentiment in favor
OF prohibition is probably much
larger.
Even had the amendment been
repealed statutory prohibition
would still have been in effect UNI
til the Legislature enacted a license
law and even then prohibition
would have prevailed until the
people had voted in favor of Ii
cense in such districts as the leg
islature may have determined Is
units and there is no doubt but
that a large part of the state would
have remained dry even then
Constitutional prohibition, how
ever, is better than statutory
prohibition and the state is a bet
ter unit than the county and the
county is a better unit than the
district. In general temperance
people favor the largest possible
unit and the liquor people favor
the smallest possible unit. Some
lessons have been learned in the
Maine campaign which ought tt
be of value in future contests anc
not the least of these is the danger
of over confidence and the un-
wi sdom Of several campaigns in
one state at one time under sepa.
