FOR STATE CHAIRMAN
SPEAKER MURRAY HAS WORD
REGARDING FIGHT ON HON.
J. D. THOMPSON.
Uulhrlo, 01:1a., July 22. Speaker
Win. II. .Murray makes .-. statement
with roforonco to tho recent press dis
patches that .1 light would bo inado
on the- Hon. J. 11. Thompson ot Pauls
Valley for state chairman, aji.l that r.j
lineup had hecn niado for .lames Men
ofee, stato treasurer, havluc the at
tainment of tills object In view.
Speaker .Murray says:
"1 do not know anything about the
proposition of running .Mr. .Menefee,
except from rumor nml tho statement!!
contained In tho press. I lmve not
talked) to .Mr. .Monofee about It, nnd
shall assume, that he la not n can
tltdato. "Why," enld Speaker Murray, with
considerable cmphaslu mingled with
evident Indignation, "nhould anyone
attempt to celoct a stato otllcer na
one of tlu nr. 'lagers of the party?
The pioiKialtlon Is prepusteroiiH, No
r.tato olllcor or member of tho legls
latuie should even be n member of
tho executive committee, much letso
chairman of It. Wo certainly do not
want to build up an omco-lioldlng ma
chine in IIiIh stato, arl the people
will not stand for It. They have Just
defeated an oHlce-holdlng republican
machine and thoy certainly will not
eland for t democratic nlllcc-holding
jnnchlne. If tho fact that Joe Thomp
son, as chairman of tho party, se
cured an increaso In the party vote
In the whole stato from 20,000 ma-
Jorlty in tho election for delegntes to
tho constitutional convention to 110,000
majority In the election last Septem
her, does not warrant his ro-olpctlon
ufter such service, the opposition
should certiilulj select someono other
than an olllco holder." Sieaker Mur
ray understands very well, as has
been stated In tho newspapers, that
this opposition Is not really an oppo
sition to Thompson, but a supposed
opposition to him, and he said: "I
am a private citizen and not u can
didate for re-election, and not a can
didate now for any office, and as soon
as the Torrens' land amendment, the
ochool land bill, ow Jerusalem, and

jiuhich 1 have sustained during my
two years official career."
"Don't It amuse you," asked Shak
er Murray, "the way a few appointees
not all, I am glad to say In the
various departments here In, (luthrlc
got together, name a chairman of the
executive committee, elect the gov

NEW TRIAL FOR

COURT OF APPEALS DOLS NOT 1
SfSTAL. JUDGE LANDIS !
OPINION WAS UNANIMOUS
Judge Grosseup, (Inker ami Seaman
Reverse Decision of District Court
a"d Case Is Remanded With
Instructions for Nrw Trial.
Chicago, III.. July 22. By a unant.
mous opinion in the United States
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Dis
trict, the famous cacc of the govern
ment against the Standard Oil Com
pany of Indiana, In which the latter
was fined $29,210,000 by Judge Lan
dis in the district court, must be re
tried. The dccislo", which it co"curred In
by Judgrs Baker a"d Seaman, wn de
livered here today by Judge Grosseup,
who wrote the opinion.
The concluding sentence :' tho
o,i!i icn reads:
1 .e Judgment of the district e rt
11 revised and the case remand-'
wIMi Instructions to grant a new trial
and proceed further In nccorJnncc
w.Mi thl- opinion."
The opinion continues:
"The lnWrstnto commerce us", was
Intended to promote, not roUraln
trade and commerce; lo secure fair
dealing In commerce !irow;h uniform
ity and not '.o put an lufstiuctlou In
ulio way of commerce."
The opinion begins with a brief
statement of (he manner In which the
rare was brought from the district
court to the court of appeals.
Section C of the Interstate commerce
ict relating to the publishing and fil
ing of rates Is quoted.
There are 10 assignments of error,
taking up sixty-seven pages ot print-
d record.
It was generally believed hero yes
terday and last night that the fine as
sessed by Judge lindls would be sus
tained, with uho result the opinion
cieated considerable surprise when an
nounced today.
The court remarks that a number
of nice Judicial qiiestlciib were raised
In this case.
'The most wo can say," the opinion
reads, "Is that the tariff rate question
is one upon which the Judges, -after
1 full discussion, might very reason
ably disagree.
"The error of the trial court In
tnklnc away from tho plaintiff in
error Its right to submit to the Jury
the whole question of whether It had
knowledge of the tariff sheet from
which It Ik enld lo have accepted con
cessions and thoroforo with Intent to
violate nn honest bollof that It was
a lawful rate. Is nn error- that arisen
Into cue solid substance."
