Iiiana. an offspring, undoubtedly. but
a llill('h smaller and marker organiza~

“llrrl when it came to pass judgment
it, was on the offenses of the parent
company that. the lndiana offspring
was found guilty, and it was in accord—
ance with the property and revenues
of the parent company that the tillc
of th offspring» was gunned. if it was
the desire and purpose of the court to
punish the Standard Oil Company or
New Jersey that, concern should have
been indicted either jointly or sepal-
ately, and have been brought into
court.
"Every corporation has exactly the
same rights as an individual_ no more
nor less. The parent company is, of
more or less responsible for
.ch acts of the indiana company, The
people will sooner or later realize that
the cotrrts are not. swayed by any oth

for no more than his opinion. All I
