Hadley, attorney-general of Missouri, was in Anaheim for a brief visit on Friday, having come over from Pasadena in company of W. L. Porterfield of the Home telephone company, in the latter's touring car. Mr. Hadley came to Southern California for the purpose of addressing the Long Beach chautauqua upon Modern Commercialism, which address he delivered on Thursday evening before an audience of 3000 people. He is said to be one of the foremost orators in the United States, and his record as attorney-general of Missouri has brought him favorable comment throughout the Union. His prosecution of the Standard Oil and other corporate monopolies in his home state has made him the most famous upward trend noticeable hand.

If all the “swag” of all cr big and little, was joined together composite mass it would b pittance to the sum that the truth plundered from the American during the past ten years.

His prosecution of the Standard Oil and other corporate monopolies in his home state has made him the most famous man in the country, always excepting the president of the United States. Hadley pursued John D. Rockefeller relentlessly in the New York and Missouri courts, during which time Rockefeller went into hiding to escape service of a subpoena upon him. He made H. H. Rogers testify to the misdeeds of Standard Oil, and succeeded in driving the oil trust from his home state of Missouri. Mr. Hadley's friends are talking of him as a vice presidential possibility, and more and more every day the conviction grows that the national republican convention in 1908 will demand that Theodore Roosevelt stand again for the presidency. It was Missouri which first demanded that Roosevelt stand for vice president with the martyred McKinley, and it was that great state which first voted for a republican candidate for president in 1906. "Roosevelt and Hadley" sounds good to us. Mr. Hadley said while here that he was charmed with the natural beauty of Southern California. His eye had never feasted upon so many rare delights of mountain and valley scenery, and he impressed one as being not at all averse to coming to the state again and casting his lot permanently with us. The Home telephone company is preparing to expend $40,000 upon its new telephone system for this The Home telephone company is preparing to expend $40,000 upon its new telephone system for this city, and work upon its new fire-proof central station will probably begin in the near future. The details of the meeting between Mr. Porterfield and the city trustees held on Friday evening appear in another column and will be attentively perused by our readers. The Valley Home telephone company—the Redlands company which has lately made a stir in the this community, and which forced the Sunset company to cut out its intolerable tolls—remains to be heard from. Its application for a franchise to do business is now before the trustees. Is Anaheim to have three telephone systems? At all events, we shall soon have a second system in operation. No section of Orange county has improved more during the past year than the section immediately south and west of this city. New homes are being erected, pumping plants installed and the general stop to consider that if all the grand and petty law thieves and all the burglars and pads, of all the forgers and confiscated men, and of all criminals, big auctions were joined together in one opposite mass it would be but a pit to the sum that these illegal conditions have plundered from the American people during the past ten years. "The last few years have within the awakening of the national science in reference to the moral ciple involved in these great complications, which have fixed the price to the consumer and the product the necessities of life and have pealed the law of supply and demand." "The people have come to realize since they have come to consider the great questions of public and private life with which they were called to deal, that the responsibility for existence in the last analysis rests those great commercial enterprises which have existed in violation of common and our statute law, and where in the conduct of their business relied to dishonest and illegal methods to cure special privileges and unfair vantages. When they come as in last few years, they have come, they investigate the different evils and abide in the administration of public affairs and in our industrial system, found that in the great majority cases the original source or cause such evil was a business enterprise legal in its plan or organization or lawful in its business methods. "The explanation of the unfair road rate, the midnight tariff, drawback and the rebate came to known as the result of the efforts some commercial enterprise which strong enough to demand and seize such unlawful privileges. Not only The only piece of land by the Sterns Ranchos comall this region is a forty-lying midway between and the Katella district. Many years ago the land owned the original Mexi- , extending for miles south. Now the whole country and planted to trees, with there a corn patch, a field peppers, potatoes and al- water from innumerable plants whispers by in the oiled roadways are either side with splendid s, and one feels like near- rise while driving through spot. Fifteen years ago nothing here; now it is loveliest spots in South- nia. HADLEY SHOWS US 's Attorney-General Great Speech Be- hautauqua. "swag" of all criminals, he, was joined together in the mass it would be but a sum that the trusts have from the American people last ten years. American people realize that life and character are be- ned and weakened by these in restraint of trade and a return to the principles the people come to realize and know that those evils and abuses to which I have referred were the legitimate and natural product of the unlawful, unfair and illegal business combinations, but they also came to realize that the manner in which such enterprises were conducted was undermining the characters of the men who were connected with them. The moral training from employment in the services of a business enterprise whose affairs had to be conducted by stealth, whose code of morals justified lying and cheating and the violation of every principle of honor and fairness, was given to the people the idea that there was no standard except that of success. and that the methods by which that result was obtained was a matter of indifference. It was when this realization came to the American people that they demonstrated again their devotion to an idea and a principle; it was when they came to realize that our national life and character were being undermined and weakened by the existence and operation of these combinations in restraint of trade, that the people resolved to demand a return to the principles of common honesty in our industrial system and in the administration of our public affairs. "There is naught of prejudice against the profits of legitimate trade, or against the profits of accumulated wealth, which has caused the determination of the American people to demand a change of those conditions of our commercial and industrial system which are the cause of evils which threaten, if they do not imperil, the existence of our institutions. There is no prejudice against large enterprises and large undertakings in the attitude that the American people have assumed toward these problems; there is no Quixotic hope that we can secure the perfection of private morals or entirely eradicate dishonesty, trickery and "swag" of all criminals, life, was joined together in the mass it would be but a sum that the trusts have from the American people last ten years. American people realize that life and character are bened and weakened by these in restraint of trade and a return to the principles honesty in our industrial public affairs. No delusive hope that are the product of a decade of development can be corray. Can people have reached out to the illegal combinations as to the common burglar, man or the thief.—Attor-Hadley. Hadley, attorney-general of Missouri delivered a press on modern commerce exemplified by the Standard at the Long Beach Chaunday night. After describing the recent of the organization of the course of the past ten significant fact incident to this violation of money and of it had been accomplished the men who had effected great honor, respected by held up as examples to operation, and called caprice. People apparently never consider that what these violations of the criminal nation and of most of them they transacted their people apparently never or that if all the 'swag' and petty larceny all the burglars and foot forgers and confidence all criminals, big and lit-together in one com- would be but a pittance at these illegal combina- dered from the Ameri- ing the past ten years. New years have witnessed tag of the national con-rence to the moral print mand a change of those conditions of our commercial and industrial system which are the cause of evils which threaten, if they do not imperil, the existence of our institutions. There is no prejudice against large enterprises and large undertakings in the attitude that the American people have assumed toward these problems; there is no Quixotic hope that we can secure the perfection of private morals or entirely eradicate dishonesty, trickery and illegality either from our commercial system or from the administration of our public affairs. There is no delusive hope upon their part that we can ever secure a return to the simple life and the simple virtues of our ancestors; that we can ever secure a return to those conditions when character, courtesy and ability were the estimates by which men were judged and the test by which success was determined. There is no delusive hope that evils which are the product of a decade of commercial development can be corrected in a day. "Nor do I believe that there is any considerable sentiment which declares that because of individualism in the giving to each individual of the products of his own labor achievements, we must wipe out private ownership and descend to the dull monotony and mediocrity of common ownership. "But the people of this country have come to a realization of the fact that an industrial system, in which the greater portion of the trade and commerce is owned by corporate interests which are unlawful either in their plan of organization or in the method in which their business is conducted, is an artificial condition that cannot continue. They have come to a realization of the fact that an industrial system, in which great combinations of capital are able to control the price, both to the consumer and the producer, both of the raw material and the finished product, is absolutely and completely wrong. They have come to a realization of the fact that when any individuals or corporations, by a combination and organization of business interests which is unlawful and unfair, takes from an American citizen, by such illegal means, his money or property, either by giving him less than he should receive for that which he sells, or by charging him more than he should pay for that which he buys, that such men or corporations are new years have witnessed the national conference to the moral principle in these great combinations fixed the price both over and the producer of life and have reof supply and demand. We have come to realize we come to consider those of public and private that they were called upon the responsibility for their last analysis rests upon commercial enterprises tested in violation of our statute law, and which of their business resorts illegal methods to sevivileges and unfair aden they come as in the they have come, to indifferent evils and abuses ration of public affairs industrial system, they the great majority of natural source or cause of business enterprise illle- or organization or uniness methods. Action of the unfair railmidnight tariff, the rebate came to be result of the efforts of real enterprise which was to demand and secure privileges. Not only did product, is absolutely and completely wrong. They have come to a realization of the fact that when any individuals or corporations, by a combination and organization of business intereests which is unlawful and unfair, takes from an American citizen, by such illegal means, his money or property, either by giving him less than he should receive for that which he sells, or by charging him more than he should pay for that which he buys, that such men or corporations are just as clearly violators of the law, that they are just as clearly committing the offense of larceny as the burglar who enters your house or the pickpocket who takes your purse. "The American people have, I believe, reached a determination that there shall be placed upon the statute books, and enforced in all the states of the Union, laws which will result in the same punishment being meted out to such men as is meted out to the common burglar, the highwayman or the thief. I do not believe that the conditions that exist today in our national life can continue; I do not believe that Socialism or government ownership offers a solution or a remedy. But I do believe that our industrial system cannot continue to exist half lawful, half unlawful. I believe that the American people with that capacity of rising equal to every emergency that they have displayed in the past, will see to it that the unlawful shall cease and conform to the laws which represent the experience of centuries and the moral judgment of eighty millions of people. And I believe that this result will be accomplished, not by any legerdemain or trick of finance; not by any radical departure from the beaten paths and purposes of legislative action.
