MONOPOLY AND THE SEVEN SISTERS.

The Seven Sisters" act under which complaint
has been made to the OF the State
the Crew Levick Oil Company of Jersey City against
the Standard Oil Company for rate-cuting to main
tain monopoly, provides for criminal penalty, as
the act is made misdemeanor, with punishment of
three years in prison and 81 900 fine for each oense.
The Standard acts through its subsidiary COM
panies which are merely it's tentacles. The rate
cutting in price of gasoline had for its object
the driving of weaker rival out of business, a
practise which the Standard has pursued for years.
The complaining company has about twenty-five
stations New Jersey and this business the Standard
has endeavored to by sandbagging its owner,
regardless of the Seven Sisters laws.
No of the thus far imperative statutes pro-
vides that it shall be unlawful for any corporation
engaged in the manufacture distribution of any
commodity in general to discriminate q
by selling such commodity at lower rate in one
section than in another if the effect establish

stricting trade. The law is plain in its meaning.
What does it amount to? 1t has been deliberately

AIMED AT CITY ENTERPRISE.
JAMES SMITH. JR.
FOUNDED MARCH 1. 1882.

During the three years the harbor and meadow
development enterprise OF the city held after
it had been authorized by vote of the people and
planned by engineers, the public wondered at the
delay and could not understand the why and where
fore 1t was not known that railroad and affiliated
private interests stood in the way
The delay was ended when the Board of Works
was wrested from the control of these influences and
set out to execute the engineers plans But the
work had hardly got under way when bill was
slipped into the Legislature to create State COM
mission to take charge of all harbor development
Newark Bay and strip the Newark municipality of
any authority TO carry out its plans. The origin of
this bill was in Newark and it's motive to kill meadow
and harbor development, for railroad controlled
commission was TO carry out that object.
The bill failed in its furtive purposes, as it was
amended to leave Newark liberty to carry out its
enterprise BIT that did not end it. The evident OBJ
ject now is to get control of the mayors Office and
break the two-thrds majority vote in the Board of
Works with the possibility of control of the board
Mayor Haussling has been strong supporter OF
meadow and harbor enterprise hand-picked
mayor in his place would his policies and put
blight on the citys enterprise.
1t is noteworthy that the names of men identified
with the opposition to meadow and harbor improve
ment appear prominently among those mentioned in
connection with fusion" ticket for the November
election

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
How General Burnside Won in Rhode Island

The late Colonel Sabin L. SaSles,
who was for time chairman OF. the
Republican State Committee OF Con-
necticut. and was the owner of large
WOODEN mills in Eastern Connection,
and Rhode Island. was personal
friend of General Ambrose E. Burn
side He met General Burnside very
often at the time of the organization
of the First Regiment of Rhode Island
Infantry, in April, 1861. or that regi-
ment General Burnside was colonel
Colonel Sayles III the early sixties was
a citizen OF Rhode Island who pos
sessed a great deal of influence.
Shortly after General Burnside was
elected United States senator from
Rhode Island as the successor of Sem
ator William Sprague, I asked Col
onel Sayles if General Burnside was a
native son of Rhode Island, wonder
ing whether that did not in part eN-
plain the great popularity which
Burnside had gained in that State.
"Oh, no." Colonel Sayles replied. Il
don't think he was ever in Rhode
island until shortly after President
Lincoln called for 5000 volunteers in
April 1861. There is very interest
ing story descriptive of the manner in
which Burnside went to Rhode Island.
] have heard it often. and / have no
doubt of the substantial truth of il.
He was, l think, a native of Indi-
ana and / have been told that when
he was a boy he was apprenticed to
a tailor. The congressman who rep
resented his district learned of the
boy and found that he was a very
bright youngster He therefore OF
fered TO send him to West Point, and
the Dos was very glad Of the oppor-
tunity.
When Burnside was al West
Point and afterward when he was in
the regular army he made up bis
mind that there could be great i'm
provement in the muskets, which
were loading guns with which
the army was equipped He was
good mechanic and he worked away
at plan for making a musleI
which could be loaded at the breech.

Almost anything is possible in this era of wonders

be incredulous in regard the reported invention

Before the telephone came into being nobody
dreamed it possible for TWO people to make their
voices audible to each other 8 wire when they
were miles and hundreds OF miles apart, and this
is now common utility. Who dreamed of wireless
