Kind Words From Contemporaries That
Are More Highly Priced Than Any office

Albany Herald The Herald con-
graduates Editor E. l.. Rainey OF
The Dawson News on his appoint
ment as a member Of the board of
prison commissioners to succeed the
late Wiley Williams. We also con-
graduate Governor Brown on his
wise selection. The statement has
been made that there were no fewer
than 200 applicants for the vacancy
caused by the death Of Captain Viii
liams, and We do not believe that
even with so much material from
which to make a choice one more
eminently satisfactory to the people
of the state could have been made.
Editor Rainey has been hOnored by
his own community and has held
positions of trust and responsibility
in wider field. He was supervisor
of the census for the Second congress
sional district in 1910, and has al
ways measured up fully to the eX-
pectations of his friends and admir-
ers. The Herald, both a friend and
admirer of the new prison commits
sioner, offers its congratulations.
Macon Evening News The Macon
News extends congratulations to the
new member of the prison commits
sion of Georgia, Hon. E. l.. Rainey
of Dawson. Governor Browns selec-
ton was a splendid one, and The
News feels confident that his ap'I
pointee will measure up in every
way to the duties and responsibilities
of the office In addition to having
pditpd his nauar with great ability
for many years Mr.. Rainey has serV
ed several terms in the Legislature
from Terrell county And to show
the esteem in which he is held by his
fellow citizens he never had any OPP
position Mr. Rainey will assume
charge of his new duties at once, and
his many friends predict a splendid
record for him. Governor Brown is |
to be congratulated on this appoint |
ment,

Welcome Peary in Paris.

Paris, June 6.-The Geographical
Society Of France rendered Admiral
Peary a reception today, which was
largely attended by scientists and
other persons of prominence. The
affair was brought about largely
through the efforts Of DR.. Charcot, the
explorer who says that it would have
been an expression Of doubt of the
explorers discoveries if Paris had
failed to entertain Peary after Lon
don, Berlin and New York had done
so. 1t is an open secret that the
Geographical Society of Paris has not
been anxious to honor Peary. lie

TRUSTS HAVE NOT
BEEN DISSOLVED
ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS DIS
SOLUTION MUST SHOW STOCK
HAS PASSED INTO NEW HANDS.

Washington, June 5.---The Standard
Oil nor the tobacco trust-the two
greatest examples of the operation Of
the Sherman anti trust law-has been
actually dissolved to meet the re-
quirements of the statute designed to
destroy monopolies, according to the
views of Attorney General Mercy =
nolds.
This became known Thursday,
serving as an index to TIE democratic
administration trust policy. 1t was
taken as a forecast of possible fur
ther action against the oil as well as
the tobacco interests if the results Of
the investigations just completed b.
the department of justice OF the
workings of the oil dissolution de-
crees indicate that there is a plob-
lem which still can be dealt with un-
der the Sherman law.
The attorney generals complaint
is not against the Sherman law, but
against the DEGREES of dissolution in
terpreting the decisions Of the United
States supreme court ordering the
dismemberment of the Standard Oil
and tobacco combinations into sepa-
rate competitive parts. He is firmly
convinced that no trust, as in these
two cases, can be adequately dissol?-
ed by a pro rata distribution Of tie
stock of its disintegrated parts among
the same stockholders who controlled
the original combination. A commun-
ity of interest is bound to exist, he
believes. and division can not follow
such dissolutions.
Dissolutions of the future must be
such that the stock will rfss into
new hands.
Mr.. Reynolds looked up the tobacco
dissolution as an obnoxious subter
fuge, but it did not develop until
Thursday that he likewise placed the
Standard Oil dissolution order in tie
list of inadequates. Although the
attorney general has reached no final
decision the consensus of opinion Of
the government lawyers at this time
is that it is now too late to open up
the decree in either case and what
ever action is taken probably Will be
supplemental.

The trip to Oil City yesterday was
only the beginning of a series of

his remarks Prof. Richards paid =
glowing compliment to the school

of the largest in the county and has
| twelve acres of land that is admirably
