Since i'cVnm day the price of Standard Oil lias ad
vanced 0 points and the usual (iarterly dividend of $10
lias been declared, on tlio usual basis of $40 annually or
10 per cent mi the capitalization.
The Points have decided in favor of Standard Oil and
against the government. There is now no danger of big
fines and there never was any danger ot imprisoning oin-
eiak '
Thus forty years of lawbreakiiig, of corruption of
government, or rebating and unfair death-dealing compe
tition is virtually sanctioned and legitimatized.
In his message to congress of January 31, 1908, Pres
ident Rixsevelt declared that "the federal government
does scourge sin; it does bid sinners' fear ; for it has put
behind the bars w ith impartial severity the powerful finan
cier, (lit1 powerful politician, all, no matter how high their
station, against whom criminal misdees can bo proved."
Vet nothing has been done to punish the father of all
trusts and Standard Oil prosecution is apparently a clos
ed incident.
SHOULD HfSir PAVMHNT.
First appearances go a long way with everyone.
When a man steps off the train at Medford for the
first time and beholds a sea of mud, the impression is un
favorable. He doesn't know that Hie mud is onlv two or
Ihree inches deep, wtyh a strata of macadam underneath
hut imagines that the conditions are similar to the bottom
less roadways of many country towns.
In order to make a favorable first -impression as the
only paved town in southern Oregon is one of the three
principal reasons why the paving should be rushed. The
second reason is that the pavement is needed, and the third,
that ample time has elapsed since the contract was let to
have had the work completed.
It will add fifty per cent to the appearance of the city
to have the main street paved and that is whv every ef
fort should be exerted to rush the work through while the
sun shines.'

WOMAN LAWYER AFTER !
RAPID TRANSIT COMPANY
PKlLAIiKLPMIA, Pa., Xov. 27.
A. F. Verger, attorney, who figures as
rimnsel for Klmer A. Hrodie, who hart
entered suit for the nullification of the
jmrtuendiip between the city and the
Itapid Transit company, is Miss A. Flor
ence Verger.
All almig the traction men have been
wondering how it riime about that the
attack on the constitutionality of their
agreement with th" city Iiiih mine after
a perioil of mure than a year and n
hnlf in which all the lawyern of Phila
delphin Kcenungty had balked at the
job of fig)., ing the contract, and the
discovery today of the sex of their fue
startled them. .
While Miss Verger would not admit
today that she was the originator of
the htiit, she conl'oKxed that she had
done a great deal of the work in con
nection with it and Hint had heou miik
ing a close study of the transit (pies
lion in Philadelphia. She has had ex
perience at the bar, having been in
aftive practice sine; litoti, when she was
graduated from the Pjiiversity of Penn
Hyhstiia law school.
The feminine traction fighter' is pret
ty, short of stature. )li t poHsessing eves
that f IiihIi in a manner to evidence
ipiick perception. She is not at all
pleased that the discovery that "A. F.
Verger" is a woman should nrouse com
ment.
"If the transit n;"ii are surprised. I
an not understand it. They must et
used to mull things now that women
are entering the law like every other
profession." she said.
