w. R. Parker, one of the famous
travelling crack shots of the Reming-
ton Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge
Company, has just completed a 2OOO-
mile trip through the interior desert
of Oregon in a Chalmers $50" car
This trip was a part of Mr.. Parkers
regular tour in which he gives exhi-
billions of sharp-shooting and incident
ally sells the goods manufactured By
his company. During the trip Parker
visited towns sometimes as much as
300 miles from a railroad. In several
instances he visited settlements that
had never before seen an automobile.
Sometimes hundreds of people came
to see the combination of a motor car
and man who could shoot flying tar

ker climbed to an altitude of 5000
feet.
This trip has certainly convinced
me that the motor car is the best
means of conveyance under the most
trying conditions of travel. Often Oh
my trip it was from seventy-fve TO
100 miles between water stations. My
car negotiated this dreary waste of
absolutely barren sand under a sun
as hot as any in the tropics, without
a bit of trouble" says the famous

Ablest Counsel.
In the small, prim chamber of
the court, before it's nine silk
robed justices, with an audience
made up of layers, the legal Wa
terloo began. The attorney gener-
al. Geo. w. Wickersham, and Spe-
cial Attorney j. c. Reynolds COM
manded the forces of the govern
ment.
Attorneys John c. Johnson and
William B. HoTnblower represent
ed the tobacco company. To
Johnson, as chief counsel for the
appellant, fell the duty of making
the opening argument, and his
legal defense of the accused cor
poration consumed by far the
greater part of the day. This is
the second time that the story of
the tobacco trust has reached the
highest court in the land. 1t was
argued last year, but death and
sickness so thinned the ranks of
the justices that it was decided
that re-argument should be held
so that the decision, considered
by the court as well as the attor-
ney general one of the most i'm
portant the tribunal ever faced,
might be decided before a full
bench.
Case Started in 1907.
The case had its inception in a
bill of complaint filed July 10,
1907, before the circuit court for
the Southern district of New York.
1t was alleged that the American
Tobacco company had gradually
acquired a monopoly of the tobac-
co business in the United States
by a series of bold buccaneering
exploits; had shelyed competition
and defied Independent dealers
through a network of subsidiary
companies, operating as independ-
|ent concerns.
In 1890 the government as
serts that the idea of controlling
the tobacco industry originated by
the heads of the big manufacture
ing firms. Throughout the period
of organization and growth, it is
alleged, unfair methods were
used. The organization of fake
Independent concerns, imitation of
standard brands, manipulation of
markets and price juggling were
resofted to.
1t required nearly a year to
take testimony in the case.
