OF THE
DECISION HERE
Standard Oil Case and Jer-
ssy Corporation Laws
sFrom the NEWS Correspondent

<FTom the NEWS CorreSpondent.)
Trenton, May 18-Without having
seen the complete text of the opinion
in the decision of the supreme court
of the United States in the Standard
Oil case, Nelson B. Gaskill, assistant
attorney general, said he preferred
not to express an opinion as to
whether or not it affected the New
Jersey laws referring to corpora
lions. Many prominent ~jurists were
at the state house Tuesday to attend
the opening Of the May term of the
%chancery court, but not n would
give expression to an opinion, for
the same reason. They all want to
see the text of the decision before
venturing an expression Of their
views as to its effect.
There seems to be an impression,
however, that the decision of the
supreme court of the United States
will be all that is required and that
the courts of New Jersey will not
have to bother about the discontinue
ance of the big trust. The full pur-
port of the new public utility act in
New Jersey has hardly been worked
out with any degree of satisfaction
ny lllC L uDIAC ONl1ltg SOIlLAlocAOH vi
the office of the attorney general.
1t Is believed that with the STAN
dard Oil Company decision as q pre-
cedent, and the drastic requirements
of the new public utility act there
will be little, if any difficulty, in New
Jersey requiring the public utility
corporations to conduct their affairs
in a manner that will be generally
satisfactory. That there will be a
great improvement is the general be-
lief among the jurists, who have
taken time to give the subject any
consideration whatever.
1t is admitted on all sides that
there is much in the new public
utility act that will require careful
consideration. There are so many
changes made in the law that was
formerly on the statute books that
it will require careful study on the
part of the lawyers interested to de-
termine exactly what is intended by
the act, and to arrive at a conclusion
to what is the proper interpreta-
ton of the law, particularly in GER
tain lines.
The question of reduced rates is a
wide reaching matter, and the pub
lie utility corporations seem to think
that it is open to different construc-
tons. At all events, fearing to break
the law if they allow them, the troll
ley lines have taken the initiative in
an effort to get an Interpretation so
that all doubt upon that point, at
least, may be speedily removed.

Resign This Week.


New York, May Reconnaissance
James G. Cropsey Will be out of the
police department within forty-eight
hours, either through resignation or

CONNAWAY ADVOCATES
BONDING FOR ROADS

Harry Connaway, the enterprising
Odel booster and proprietor Of the
Stone Store, was in town last week for
lost little time in telling the people he
met his ideas for the improvement Of
the roads of the Hood River valley.
Mr.. Connaway is heartily in favor Of
issuing bonds in an amount ample to
build pertinent macadam roads
throughout the county aud with the aid
of a sheet of paper and pencil he makes
IA rough diagram showing the fcasibil-
ity of his scheme.
MIR. Connoway is Of the opinion that
the county could make roads into prac-
tiCally every corner with bond issue
of half million dollars. According to
him the road can be built for about
ST. 900 a mile and l25 miles will cover
all the main roads and laterals. The
highways could be built on large
scale, which would result in IL great
saving in cost and intead of waiting 10
years for the roads to be built at the
present rate Mr. ConnaWay insists that
they could be built now and the bonds
paid off in Is years according to his
plan and there would be no higher
taxes than at present
The county is now spending about
S48. 900 annually on road and is build
ing about three miles year. To
create a bonded debt of $500, 600 would
oblgate the county to pay $50, 900 in
interest at the maximum rate of six
per .cent and the balance would keep
up the roads at the present rate Of
taxation. With the extensive improve
ments and orchard development which
is going on in the valley the valuation
of property which is now $ll. 1000, GOO is
bound to increase rapidly and this IN
crease would provide sinking fund
which could be started in five year
without raising the tax rate. An
annual addition to the sinking fund Of
$25, 600 would pay Off the bonds in 20
years, giving good highways all the
while and no Increase of taxation.
The probability that the property valua-
ton in the county will double in the
coming five year makes it seem reason.
able to MIR. Connaway that the tax
rate might even be reduced.
