Frank Picato, the Los Aneeles Ital-

Why Old Myths Survive.

The destroyers of fine dramatic
myths tell us nowadays that the
Caliph Omar did not burn the ancient
library of Alexandria, and therefore
did not have chance to say that all
the. books in it that agreed with the
Koran were superhuous, and all that
disagreed with the Koran were PERM
cious. Doubtless the perennial fresh.
ness and vitality of the tale are due
to an everlasting normal human ha-

upon both sides, covering many thou

gument before the Commissioner in
October of this year. Since we have
finished the trial of our case, they
have begun the dissolution of the Ma
tional Packing Company, which act
is tantamount to a concession that
we have fully established our charge
in the information. Part of the evil
denoe secured in our trial was ap-
piled for and used by the Federal
government in its case at Chicago.
There is no reasonable question in
my mind but what the State has
made a complete case and will Sc
cure a finding and judgment.
TWo-cent Passenger Fare and Lower
Freight Rate Cases.
These cases were tried by my pre-
decessor. l had no hand in nor any
thing to do with the trial, and these
laws were by the trial court held con-
fiscatory.
1t became my duty to take charge
OF the cases upon appeal to the SUI
preme Court of the United States.
eighteen cases in all. Two great
questions were presented to the court:
that of whether or not the laws i'm

the constitution of the United States.

whether or not they were confisca.
tory and violative of the fourteenth
amendment to the Federal constitu-
ton. In considering these questions
matters of both law and fact were
involved. 1t affected the right Of a
sovereign state to fix maximum rates
on commerce wholly within the state.
In my humble judgment the state
unquestionably has the exclusive
right and authority to regulate and
control intrastate commerce, includ-
ing rates and tolls therefor, and Con
gress has the exclusive right to con,
troll and prescribe rates on interstate
commerce. The mere amount named
as to such state rates cannot impinge
upon the commerce clause, neither
can the reduction Of state rates on
intrastate traffic as a matter of law
change interstate rates. AS to
whether or not the rates were really
c~oniscatory was merely a problem in
mathematics.
We, together with associate coun-
sci, argued the Burlington case in
October, 1910, and the court, after
having same under Amusement for

We convicted the harvester trust,
secured a fine of 100000 and an
order from the Supreme Court for the
trust to dissolve. At the request of
the Department of Justice WI have
furnished the Federal government
with our evidence in the case, and it
is now proceeding with it's prosecu-
ton, following the same lines and Sc
curing the same evidence we devel-
oped in our trial,
Lumber Trust.
When l was indicted into office in
January, 1911, suit had been filed by
my predecessor against the lumber
trust. While suit had been filed, yet
not a line of evidence had been taken
in the case. We were therefore re-
quired to start from the beginning,
and after a trial lasting more than
fifteen months, we secured a finding
against the defendants, consisting of
t~wenty-nine different corporations,
with an aggregate capital of more
than $4,000 900 90. In convicting the
lumber try@t we secured the first
conviction against it in the United
States. The department at Wash
ington, in this case, as in the har-
vester suit, sent it's special represent
tative to obtain copies of the evidence
produced in the trial.
The conviction was had before the
Commissioner, and the case will now
be heard in the Supreme Court. The
benefits which may flow from this
prosecution are to be measured here
after.
Standard Oil and Republic Oil Cases.
The Standard and Republic oil
suits had been won in the State SUI
preme Court by my predecessor. The
companies carried the cases to the
Supreme Court of the United States
upon writ of error, and there for the
first time attacked the constitutions
atty Of the antitrust statutes Of Mis-.
souri,. X
therefore fell to my lot to sustain
the validity of these laws in that trib-
unal. The real fight in these cases
therefore took place in the Supreme
Court Of the United States. The con.
viction Of the companies in the court
below was a simple and certain pro
cedure.
The Standard Oil and Waters
Pierce companies had, by agreement,
divided the territory in Missouri.
This is known as a simple combina'
tion in restraint Of trade, being the
