The free oil pipe bill, covering VenaDgo,
Warren, Erie, Crawford, Forest, Armstrong
Butler and Cameron Counties, was reported
from Committee, on Friday last, by Mr..
McJ Junken, of the House. 1t 'emains to be
seen W hat disposition will be made Of the
measure, but, with the present temper Of
the oil region, it is hardly probable that the
Penns, lvsnia Railroad will be able TO mus
ter Its boosters In sufficient force to defeat
1t. At .be ra ilroad meeting held at Oil
City, on the LIST inst, Mr.. Patterson, of IL
tnsville, stated that 1t would cost $500, 600
to buy a pipe line through the Legislature.
There is NO doubt that the statement might
trutbiully have been made Of some Legisla
lures that have convened TO Harrisburg,
but we predict that the vote on Mr.. McJun-
ken's bill will prove that the present Legis
laturs 10 not go completely buried in in.
