MISSOURI WINS FIGHT
AGAINST OIL MONOPOLY
U. S. Supreme Court Affirms De-
cision Ousting Companies
and Assessing Fines

WASHINGTON. April LIN q
sweeping opinion today the supreme
court upheld the constitutionality OF
the Missouri anti-trust statutes and
affirmed the decision OF the supreme
court OF Missouri In ousting the Stand
ard Oil of Indiana and its subsidiaries.
the Republic Oil Co. and the Waters
Pierce Co., from doing business within
the state. The $4,000 fines imposed
upon each company by the Missouri
courts were affirmed.
The suit decided today was the big
gest trust-busting attempt so far un-
dertaken by the state of Missouri
under its antitrust laws.
1t began on March 29. 1906, with the
filing OF suit by the then Attorney
General Hadley subsequently COVER
nor), in the supreme court OF Missouri,
alleging conspiracy between the Stand
ard OIL Co. OF Indiana, the Republic
on Co., and the Waters-Pierce Oil Co.
to suppress all competition within the
state.
The bill asked forfeiture of the char
tiers OF these organizations, ousting of
them from the state. and, in the case
or the Waters-Pierce Goa Missouri
corporation-its dissolution.
1t was alleged that between 1901 and
1905 the three corporations had
formed conspiracy to monopolize
petroleum trade and had divided the
state into sections where each con-
trolled the business. The concerns
posed as Independents.
On December 20, 1908, the Missouri
supreme court sustained practically
every contention OF the state.
The court accepted the fine from
the Waters=Pierce Co., and granted q
suspension OF the decree enjoining
| them from doing business.
Meanwhile the Standard and Repub
lie companies asked rehearing

they appealed to the supreme court OF
| the United States, alleging unconsti
nationality OF the Missouri anti.trus,
laws
| The court unanimously affirmed IN
full the decision OF the Missouri su.
preme court, despite the defendants
claim that the $50, 900 fine was a Grim.
inal penalty imposed In a civil suit.
The court held II would not inter
fere with the Judgment OF the Mis-
souri, court in any particular and that
the Missouri courts are sole arbiters
Of the Missouri antitrust law and
have power to Ak any fine deemed
necessary.

The Roosevelt voters are In the
majority and II they will get out and
vote. they will win."-Charles A.
Nichols, head of the Roosevelt forces.
The situation looks good to US.
We are going 10 win."--Attorney
George. b. Yerkes, one or the local
leaders for Taft.
With these statements from sources
OF authority in the two opposing Re-
publican camps on the eve OF the
Wayne county caucuses, each indi.
vidual part OF the public can take the
steer OF his choice.
The Wayne county Republican eau
cuses, Tuesday, will decide the fate
OF President Taft and ex-President
Roosevelt so far as this particular
part OF Michigan Is concerned.
The caucuses will elect delegates to
the county convention TO be held In
Concordia hall, Friday of this week,
and the county convention will in turn
elect delegates to the state convep-
ton to be held in Bay City, April IL.
The state convention will, in turn,
elect six delegates at large to the ma
ton Republican convention to be
held in Chicago, in June.
Il want to urge the Roosevelt vot-
ers to 60 out and vote, because they
are in the majority. and IL they get
out and vote, they will win" said City
Clerk Charles A. Nichols, Monday,
relative TO the Republican caucuses.
THE Taft people are whistling to
keep up courage; they are absolutely
desperate" continued Mr.. Nichols.
He also said that the coming OF
Roosevelt, Saturday. had caused lot
OF enthusiasm, and that what makes
the Taft crowd scared, is that the
Roosevelt candidacy is hurting the
opposition all over the state. The Re
publicans of Kalamazoo county, one
OF the big counties OF the state, held
a convention, Saturday, and elected
26 Roosevelt delegates. The Van
Buren, county convention hasn't been
held yet, but a majority qof the dele
gates elected to that convention, are
said to be for Roosevelt.
Roosevelt and LaFollette forces
controlled the Hilsadle county con-
vention, Saturday, and, according to
Mr.. Nichols, the LaFollette delegates
will unquestionably go to Roosevelt.
The progressive and aggressive city
clerk mentioned that the Taft forces
are making their strongest fight,
lighting for their lives" as he put IT..
Mr.. Nichols requests that citizens
report to him II any of them finds any
OF the polling places closed between
the hours of and 8-the caucus

one result" was the closing optimis-
tic sentence from the city clerk.
On the other hand, Attorney George
B. Yerkes, prominent locally in con-
nection with the formidable move
ment to heep President Taft on the
Job for four years more. said: The
situation looks good 20 =us.ZWe= are
going to win and We are going to win
by such big majority that there
can't be any trouble afterwards. AS
