HARD HIT BY HEPBURN BILL Railway Corporations Cannot Legally Transport Oil Produced by Themselves. "From and after May 1, 1908, it shall be unlawful for any railway company to transport from any territory, state or the District of Columbia, to any other state, territory or the District of Columbia, or to any foreign country, any article or commodity other than timber and the manufactures thereof, manufactured, mined or produced by it, or under its authority, or which it may own in whole or in part, or in which it may have an interest, direct or indirect, except such articles or commodities as may be necessary and intended for it's use in the conduct of its business as a common carrier." In the foregoing paragraph from the Hepburn bill, E. H. Harriman, W. F. Herrin and the minor remainder of the Southern Pacific railroad company can see about twenty million dollars of their "fondest hopes decay." Even if they refuse to see it that way, the competitors of the Associated Oil trust in California will continue to look happy, for it means that the Southern Pacific must "tote fair" and afford facilities for the interstate transportation were compelled to sit by their mined product unship decreasing in value while the sylvania company loaded with its own coal for market the 'little fellows' it could commodate them. "How far the law may preted as prohibiting any stockholder of a railroad from owning stock in any whose goods that company porting, I am not prepared but if it does not prevent sabination its intent is clear." mainder of the Southern Pacific railroad company can see about twenty million dollars of their "fondest hopes decay." Even if they refuse to see it that way, the competitors of the Associated Oil trust in California will continue to look happy, for it means that the Southern Pacific must "tote fair" and afford facilities for the interstate transportation of all oil equal and at like rates. Also it means much to Senator W. A. Clark, principal owner of the Salt Lake and Las Vegas & Tonopah railroads—that is, it means much out of his pocket as an owner of many mines and shipper of vast quantities of ores. To the Santa Fe it is of little importance, as this road generally has been disposing of its coal properties for ten years past, until today it is believed to own little or none. E. H. Harriman, according to the Los Angeles Express, is admittedly half owner of the Associated Oil corporation—which is capitalized at $40,000,000 and controls at least half the oil output of the State of California, and to what extent the Southern Pacific is the actual owner of Harriman's half may be judged from the fact that W. F. Herrin, Harriman's Southern Pacific lieutenant, also is his director in the oil trust. From time to time, independent oil dealers have complained that the Southern Pacific has discriminated against them in transporting its own oil and being "unable" to supply them with transportation facilities, or in giving Associated all the best of rates, but it seems there has been no recourse. If the Southern Pacific saw fit to haul its own oil to the exclusion of other oil there seemed no way to stop it while the corporation controlled state politics, and it would be easier for Harriman to show that the Southern Pacific and not himself individually owned the stock than it would be for the independents to prove that Harriman How far the law may preted as prohibiting any stockholder of a railroad from owning stock in any whose goods that company porting, I am not prepared but if it does not prevent sbination its intent is clearlytect the independent dealer same. It will be easier for dependent dealer to go before terstate commerce commission and obtain facilities equal with other dealer, and to bring an official up for violation of burn law and put him out of business or the other, if it by the independent that they is carrying the official's preference to his own. I will be surprised if a test woul that the law means that an official must not be identify any concern shipping goods line. If the latter is the case Harriman, Herrin, et al., their $20,000,000 worth of A Oil stock before May 1, 1908, subterfuge, such as transfer to a dummy, can easily be violation of the new law." Thus the Southern Pacific out of the oil business or the one of the Associated Oil trust me it out, or there must be fair tax of independents, and it is not posed by the latter that it was intentions of fairness that tciated-Southern Pacific recent pelled the Union Oil company vide a ten-million-dollar co supply oil to Japan, especially would keep the Southern Pac hauling its share of it. And law is seen to apply to foreign as interstate commerce. Cl Southern Pacific, because of itsiness being in Arizona and Nico, as well as California, must oil ownership in all three place. Salt Lake railroad officials so long as Senator Clark pays tariff on his mining and b products as is paid by others, books of the Salt Lake prove it not be held to have violated no recourse. If the Southern Pacific saw fit to haul its own oil to the exclusion of other oil there seemed no way to stop it while the corporation controlled state politics, and it would be easier for Harriman to show that the Southern Pacific and not himself individually owned the stock than it would be for the independents to prove that Harriman alone owned half the total stock and as a private owner was enjoying rebates from the railway company. And through it all—through the years that the independent oil producer in California has been made the butt of the Harriman joke and has seen the Southern Pacific in the guise of Associated Oil gradually strangling and absorbing one of the state's greatest industries, naturally the oil business has grown to be a "fat" thing for the Harriman crowd. In the last year the graft has grown to such proportions that the effect of the new law on the Harriman pocketbook will be to Harriman as the letting of his new life blood. And yet railroad attorneys say there is no doubt that the Southern Pacific will have to give up. “This clause of the Hepburn bill,” said a prominent railroad attorney, “was designed to kill the railroad monopoly in the coal business of Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia. It was aimed at the Pennsylvania railroad company primarily, and to save from financial ruin the independent coal operators who MONEY can be borrowed on more favorable terms from the SAVINGS, LOAN and BUILDING ASSOCIATION OF ANAHEIM than from any similar institution in the State A Home Institution... conducted by home men If you want to borrow money at a low rate to pay off your present mortgage, or to build a home or to improve your present one, address or call on Fred A.

"The ownership of railroads by government, both federal and state, is absolutely dangerous to our form of government," observed the Georgian; "and it is socialistic in principle. The democratic party, if committed to any such policy, would be defeated before entering a political contest. In my opinion, the rank and file of the party would not countenance the approval of this doctrine, and a suggestion of its indorsement should be repudiated in the national convention. "The democrats of the south never will accept government ownership. The suggestion is absolutely impracticable. With Bryan's views prevailing, suppose a State-owned railroad should become an interstate property for absolutely necessary business reasons; in that event the railroad becoming a trunk line, would be taken over by the federal government. "This is only one feature of many and interminable difficulties that would be encountered. The result of government ownership would mean absolute centralization of power, and then we would have the spectacle of the party in control of the government endeavoring to perpetuate itself in power. No greater structure of political machinery could be conceived." FOR SALE OR TRADE Good mare and colt for Leghorn or Plymouth Rock chickens not over one year old. R.R. Staples, end of West street.
