DEMOCRATIC TRUST POLICY

During a debate in the Senate last
Friday several of the senator's attack
ed the manner in which the prose
eution of trusts are being carried on
by the present administration. The
existanee of an oatmeal trust was ad-
mitted by Senator Cummings, who
asked if anything had been done to
punish the officers of this combine.
az do not know whether there are
any immediate steps being taken to
prosecute" Senator Marine replied
"but do know it is part of the poll
ey of the Democratic party to go for
the trusts, and we will go for them
dealing with them fairly, honestly and
justly, but not tenderly nor kindly. -
''I hope it is the plan of the Demo
cratic party to destroy monopoly,
Senator Cummings ejoined, "but !
must confess that the plan is being
carried out with a deliberateness that
diseourages me. l hope we shall
speedily reach the oatmeal trust,
where il can be dealt with. We are
going very slowly, however, and have
no great confidence in the effort to
readjust industrial conditions in the
administrative Offices of the Govern

The Standard Oil Company of Cal
ifornia makes a showing of its bust
ness for the year 1913, which is quite
interesting. 1t has capital stock of
$50 100000 and declared a quarterly
dividend of $3.50 per share or at the
rate of ten per cent. per annum on the
stock. 1t also shows it has a surplus
of 500, 0,196,002.25. 1t will ask the
railroad commission to give it permis-
sion to increase its capital stock to
100000 shares of the par value of
800 each or total of 100000, 900.
There can be but one reason for
wanting its capital stock increased
and that is to get so much capital
apparently invested that the dividend
will not appear so large to the public
and they can then divide the profits
which have accumulated above the
large dividends already paid and by
adding 100 per cent. water to the
stock in future the dividends will not
cause old John D. to be in constant
fear that the people might wish to
take over his oil works.
