The continuous rains for ovel

The continuous rains for over
week has caused considera BILE
washing on some of the roads.
The Spring Gulch road was hit
quite hard as we'll as the upper
Chicago creek road. John West
had some difficulty i'll getting his
transfer auto car over the Alice
road for a day or two but
made his trips. The mountains
have had a good soaking and the
way the grass is growing all over
them is astonishing. If all the
rain that has fallen during the
past ten days could be distributed
over a period of month or more
it would be very acceptable but
somehow the weather man forgot
the combination and could not shut
off the daily and mighty deluges.

over the reservoir hill and up aud
dow the zig-zag path and seized
every opportunity to drive dull
care away and they succeeded. A

FURTHER ACTION
SEEMS IMPENDING

Washington, d. G., June 5.--Attor-
that he regards the Standard Oil dis
solution decree as inadequate to meet
the intent of the Sherman law. This
was the first definite indication of the
fattorney generals attitude towards an
now being conducted to
determine whether an "oil trust" still
exists.
His objections to the decree, like
those he has expressed against the
tobacco trust decree are based on the
ground that real dissolution of a
trust cannot be accomplished by a
distribution of the stock pro rata
among the same share holders
From Charles b. Morrison and Oil
yer Paegan, his special assistants,
the attorney general has heard the re-
suits of their investigation Of the
oil situation. and is now deliberating
whether the department of justice
will be justified in taking action un-
der the Sherman law. Should he reach
the conclusion that Il trust still exists
it is pointed out that three plans of
action are open to the attorney gen
eral.
A civil suit for the dissolution of
any new combination Indictment of
individuals or contempt Of court pro
,eedings.
If action is taken, it is believed, ii
will be more likely of a criminal ma
ure.
