Thos court found this justification in the common law of the ferefathers and in the general law of the country at the time the Sherman anti-trust law was pussed. The Acts of Standard Oil. In subjecting to scrutiny the acts and doings of the Standard Ol in the past for tHe purpose of obtaining as- sistance in discovering intent and pur- pose, Chief Justice White made this cutting remark: “We think no disinterested mind can survey the period in question without being irresistibly driven to the con- clusion that the very genius for com- mearclal devhlopment ~and organiza- tion which it would seem was mani- fested from: the beginning soon begot & intent and purpose to exclude oth- ers whieh was frequently manifesied by acts and dealings wholly inconsist- ent with the theery that they -were made with the single conception of advaneing the development of husiness wal et i which on i epoch-making_ de- | Ik tobacco | { | tion, the gradual extemsion of the power over the commerce in oil which ensued, the decision of the supreme court of Ohio, the tardiness or reluet- ance in conforming to the commands of that decision, the method first adopted and that which finally culmi- pated in the plan of the New Jersey corporation, all additionally serve to make manifest the continued existence of the intent which we have previously indicated and which, among other things, impelled the expansion of the New Jersey corporation. Means of Transportation Absorbed, “The éxercise of the power ‘which resulted from that organization ferti- fies the foregoing conclusions, hence the development which came: the ac- quisition here and there which en- sued of every efficient means by which competition could have been arrested the slow hut resistiess methods which followed by which means of transpor- tation were ahsorbed and brought un- der control; the system of marketing which was’ adopted, by which the country was divided into districts and the trade in each district in oil was turned over to a designated corpora- tion within the combination and all others were excluded, all lead the mind up to a conviction of a purpose and Intemt which we think is so cer- tain as practically to cause the sub- ject mot to be within the domain of Teasonable contention. Contrel of Crude Product Resulted from Contral of Refined Product. “The infarence tbat no attempt to menopolize could have been intended end that no monopolization resulted frem the acts cemplained of. since it is est¥blished that a verr small per- centage of the crude oil produced was controlied by the combination, s un- warranted.
