The San Francisco Chronicle
says the American Society of
Equity, which was to do such
wonderful things in the way of
raiting the prices of agricultural
product, has "busted all to
pieces," and those who paid $5
each to become members are out
that amount.' Those who joined
the Society of Ebuity did bo in
the face of abundant warning .
It was apparent from the start
that the organisation was a
scheme to promote the business
of an individual.
There seems to be some dif
ference of opinion about the
designation of a judge ' to' try
the Oregon cases. Judge Gil
bert, presiding judgt of the cir
cuit court of appeals, has indi
cated he wonM zzzigu, Judge Da
Haven to the duty, but the pre
sident seems likely to have a
voice in the matter, preferring
Judge Ilunt. The government
will probably put the man in
whom it thinks beat equipped to
try cases of that kind. Slates-man..
