MRS. WALTER DAVIS DIED AT BRAINERD LAST FRIDAY Was Taken 1l while Visiting at Deer River---Passed Through Bemidji Last Wednesday. Last Wednesday, the Pioneer con- tained an account of Mrs. Walter Davis of Brainerd having been taken sick at Deer River and being taken care of here and placed on the train and sent to Brainerd. Mrs. Davis' illness terminated fatally, as will be seen by the follow- ing, taken from the Brainerd Daily Dispatch of last Saturday: “The community was shocked and surprised this morning to learn of the death of Mrs. Walter Davis at the Northern Pacific Sanitarium last night. Mrs. Davis was taken sick at Bemidji and was brought down from there on a cot Wednesday and taken directly to the Northern Pacific hospital where she died last night of acute kidney trouble. Mr. Davis was with her when the end came. “‘She expressed herself as ready to die, but regretted that neither of her daughters were able to be with her. Mrs. Cameron, of Staples, is sick in bed, having a babe only a few days old, and Dr. and Mrs. Mowers, of Tacoma, were on their way here having left there Thursday morning on receipt of a telegram from Dr. Courtney announcing her dangerous illness. They are expec- ted to arrive here Sunday morning and no final funeral arrangements will be made until their arrival. Interment will be made in Ever- green cemetery.” Mrs. Davis was known to a num- ber of people residing in Bemidji who formerly lived at Brainerd and her death was a surprise to them, as they were not aware that she was seriously ill at the time she passed through this city. “‘Commendable Effort for Bemidji.” St. Paul Trade Journal: & Bowser of Bemidji, Minn,, use about two-thirds of a page in the Bemidji Pioneer in a big display ad, announcing their annual July clear- ance sale. Theadis well illustrated, but the ad man should have gone a little lighter on the display type for The composition is a best effects. commendable effort for Bemidji. SLATER WOULD AID THE NORTH-GOUNTRY DAIRYMEN State Commissioner May Send Inspect- ors to This Immediate Section to Give Advice. St.Paul,Minn.,Aug.5.—E.K.Slater state dairy and food commissioner, has in mind the sending of a number of dairy inspectors throughout north- eastern Minnesota where dairying is just getting a footing, and which |he has already gone on record as say- ing is the most promising section of the state for dairying in years to come because of its luxuriance in clover and hay. These inspectors are not to goas critics, but as help- ers. “I believe our next step should be to go right to the farms of our cow- keepers and help them see the folly of keeping cattle ata loss. The northern Minnesota cow is produc- ing very little more than 150 pounds of butter annually. She produced, O’Leary practically as much ten years ago. She should be on the increase, when properly handled. My plan is fora dairy inspector to go to each cream- ery and cheese factory, and remain long enough at each to talk with each patron about his herd, and advise him where he can improve his_ methods. I should have the inspectors give their whole attention to improving two things, quality and quantity. I can see no better way for the practical encouragement of dairying in this new field. “I would also suggest to farmers who are interested, to arrange for two or three rousing meetings of neighbors interested in bettering their herds and getting more money out of their cows. If I am notified in time, I will gladly send an inspec- tor to such meetings where he can give practical instruction that should mean, if followed, gold dollars for all farmers who hear and follow his advice.” STATE PARDON BOARD IS AGTING ON LOCAL CASES Pardons Being Asked for in Three Penitentiary Cases Sentenced From This County.

Charles, well known in this ctty through her connection with the Bemidji Sentinel, Mrs.. Charles has been ill since last November, with cancer. She has tried several medical institutes for relief, but without avail,.and has grown rapidly worse since first becoming ill. Mrs. Charles left Bemidji July 5th, going to St. Paul, all hope of saving her life having been abandoned. She lingered until this morning at 9 o’cloc,k when she breathed her last. Mrs. Charles was born in St. Paul in 1865. She is survived by a daugh- ter, Mrs. C. O. Cooley, and four grandchildren. b 2 o’clock. — Skating Tues.

Conger of this city was com- pelled to return home hurriedly from a visit to points in central, eastern and western Iowa, on account of the weather conditions being such that the lung trouble, with which he has been afflicted to a certain extent for fifteen years began to bother him and he was compelled to take to his bed. Mr. Conger went with his wife on a vacation to Iowa and intended to have a good time for a month. He .no sooner reached the Iowa line than his asthma attacks returned with renewed vigor. In spite of all care they grew worse and he hastened north as soon as possible. Mr. Conger reached here Saturday evening and since then he has felt much better, in fact his shortness of breath is rapidly leaving him and he expects to be as well as ever in a few days. “I tell you,” says Mr. Conger, “this part of the north country is the proper place for people with lung trouble to improve, I know, because, when I came here six years ago, I was nearly a wreck from lung trouble. I have been well ever since I first came here until I took this trip to Towa; that state is no place for any- one with lung trouble. Bemidji is the place.” NEWS FROM LAKE SIDE AND GRAND FORKS BAY People Living on Beautiful Lake Be- midji Are Enjoying Their Outings to the Utmost. August 5.

MAXIMUM ON ALL COUNTS Octopus Had Been Convicted of Ao- cepting Rebates on Numerous Ship- ments of Oil—Case WIll Be Carried to the Highest Court. Chicago, Aug. 5.—Judge Landis, in the United States dlstrict court, has imposed a fine upon the Standard Oil company of Indiana of $29,340,000, the maximum amount upon each one of the 1,462 counts of the Indictment on whieh the company was recently con- victed of rebating. The judge also recommended that a call be issued for a special grand jury which is to consider the other party to the rebat- ing opdrations of which the Standard Oll company was found gullty and it is therefore probable that within a short time proceedings will be com- menced agalnst the Chicago and Al- ton Rallroad company for the alleged commission of similar offenses. The reading of the opinion by Judge Landls aroused almost as much inter- est as the presence of John D. Rocke- feller and other officials of the Stand- srd Ofl company upon the witness stand. The courtroom was crowded to its utmost capacity and the United States deputy marshals were finally JUDGE K. M. LANDIS. compelled to refuse admission to all late comers. The government was represented in the courtroom by Unit- ed States District Attorney Sims and by Assistant District Attorney Wil kerson. The only attorneys of the Btandard Oil company present in the courtroom were Attorneys Eddy and Martin, neither of whom bore a prom- Inent part in the actual trial of the case. Attornoy Miller, the leading counsel for the Standard Oil company, is in Europe and his chief assistant, Moritz Rosenthal, is in New York, Only a few of the lesser officials of the Stendard Ofl company were in the courtroom. Court Reviews the Charges. Judge Landis, in his dectsion; said it was proven in the trial that the de- fendant, a corporation of Indiana, op- erates an oil refinery at Whiting, Ind.; that the Chicago and Alton Rail- way company, a corporation of Illi- nols, operates a line of railroad from Chicago to East St. Louis, Ill. Prior to the occurrences on which the prose- cutlon was based the Chicago and Al- ton company had flled with the inter- state commerce commission showing the rates for the transportation of ofl in car lots from Whiting to Hast St. Louis to be 18 cents per 100 pounds. The court says it appears at the hear- ing that the defendant shipped its goods from Whiting to East St. Louls || for 6 cents and 7% cents to St. Louis, The defense argued that the Elkins law authorized the prosecution for but one offense and maintalned that there could be a conviction on only one count. The court held that the law is violated every time any prop- erty is so transported, as the legal rate was established by the railroad company on a car lot basis. The un- lawful 6-cent rate was granted and accepted on that basls. As to the de- fendant’s claim that the representa- tions by the Alton road had misled it into the sincere bellef that the Alton 8-cent rate had been flled with the interstate commerce commission the court held that as the law required the oarrier to keep the schedule at its freight office for public inspection it was the defendant’s duty to ascertain at the railroad’s office whether the rate was so fixed and it being for the jury to determine whether testimony exhibited the truth of the transaction. The jury having found a verdict of gullty it became the duty of the court to fix the punishment. Oll Trust Real Dl/fendnnt. The court then reviews its action in determining what corporation- held the stock of the defendant Standard Ofl company of Indiana. This demon- strafed that a very large proportion ot the stoek was held by individuals for the stockl{olders of the Standard Ofl oeompafy of New Jersey, which has outstanling stook of approximately $100,000,000. The court discusses at-length the various defenses offered by counsel And says the nominal defendant is the #\andard Ol company of Indiana, a $1,000,000 corporation. The Standard Oil company - of New Jorsey, whose capital 18 $100,000,000, is the real de- fendant. This is so for the reason that if a body of men organize a large corporation under the laws of one Btate for the purpose of carrying on business throughout the United Stdtes and for the accomplishment of that purpose absorb the stock of other cor- porations such corporations so ab- sorbed have thenceforward but a nom- inal existence. They cannot initlate or execute any independent’ business policy. ~The court then passed th judsment as follows: = : 4« tm uuw guugment and sentence or the court that the defendant Standard Ofl company pay a fine of $29,240,000. *‘One thing rematns, It must not be agsumed that in this jurisdiction the laws may be ignored. If they are not obeyed they will' be enforced.. The plain demands of justice requira that the faots disclosed in this pro®eding be submitted to a grand jury with a view to the consideration of the con- duct of the other party to these trans- actions. Let an order be entered for a panel of sixty men returnable at 10 o'clock on the morning. of Aug. 14. The United- Btates district attorney |l. direoted to proceed accordingly.” APPEAL WILL BE TAKEN. 8tandard Oll Company to Carry Case to Highest Court. New York, Aug. 65.—News of the unprecedented fine Imposed upon the Standard Ol company by Judge Lan- dis In the United States court at Chi- ocago was recelved in New York with excited interest. The general expec- tatlon for some days has been that the decision would he unfavorable to the Standard Oil company, but ap- parently no one looked for the impo- sition of the maximum penalty on the 1,402 counts in the indictment, reach- ing the enormous total of $29,240,000, An offiofal of the Standard Oil com- pany sald the amount of the flnes evidenced the Injustice against the company. “The amount of Judge Landls’ fines,” said the officlal authoritatively for the company, “is fifty times the value of the oil carried under the in- dictment. The total value of oil was $650,000. “‘For each car of ofl valued at about $450 we have been fined $20,000. An appeal will be taken to the United States cfrcult court of appeals, but whether it will be entered at once or whether the full time allowed by law will be taken will be determined by our counsel in Chicago.” The Standard Oll attorneys hed nothing to say further than that an appeal will be entered and continued to the last resort. Attorneys were generally stunned by the fine imposed. 1t was pointed out that nothing ap- proaching the sum which the Stand- ard Ofl company of Indfana has beem sentenced to pay has never been ex- acted before in a proceeding for viola- tion of statute and the appeal of the company will be watched with the closest interest mot only by the attor- neys directly concerned but by all lawyarg .
