The Standard Oil Monopoly
Abroad.

SAYS the Journal of the Knights of
Labor, the Stanard Oil Company has
extended it's operations to Europe.
Within the last few months they
have secured combination of the
large houses in Bremen and Ham
burg engaged in the business and
organized them into a gigantic
stock company-the German-Amer:-
can Petroleum Company-in which
the Standard magnates hold con-
trolling interest. The same plan
of operation has been pursued at
Rotterdam, Antwerp and Venice
The whole trade Of Germany is
being absorbed by this enormous
combination, their only competitor
being the German-Russian Naptha
Importing Company, which deals in
the import from the Baker wells in
Russia. 1t is expected that they,
too, will shortly be absorbed by the
big American corporation, and then
the market will be completely in
hands Of the Standard monopollsts.
The German laws against such com
binations to raise prices Of products
are powerless against the Standard
Oil Company's entertainments for the
same reason that the laws passed
by several American state legisla-
lures against combinations are inef-
fective-viz.: that the new organl-
cation is not a trust or an amagama-
ton, but regularly-organized
mercantile company, such as is
strictly within the law We are
curious to see how Emperor William
will deal with the matter. 1t is
very instructive spectacle as 1t
stands, showing how much stronger
the power of accumulated and or
ganized wealth is than the boasted
despotic power of the Hohenzol-
lerns. Emperor William is no mere
royal figure-head He assumes to
govern in fact as well as in name
vet financial corporation mainly
controlled by foreigners is able to
set his laws at defiance and take alb
solute control of an important
branch of industry. The real rulers
in these days are not kings, emper-
ors, presidents or legislatures, but
millionaires.
The situation must excite I'M
pleasant reflections in the minds of
the nominal rulers of Germany and
other European countries as to the
result in case the enterprise of the
Standard Oil monopolists were but
the fore-runner of a series of similar
explorations by the millionaires
who control different lines Of pro-
duction in this country. Surprising

Remnants Of the Two Old Par

All the better classes of Democra-
cy throughout the state are silently
but surely deserving and going into
the Peoples party. They have be-
come Disguised with old party cor
ruption, and have, moreover, grown
tired of fighting for Democratic
supremacy in Kansas. The bond
Of friendship which is apparently
growing between the Republican
and bourbon politician has disgust
ed the rank and file of respectable
Democracy SO far has this spirit
grown that the Salina Herald, one
of the staunchest Democratic papers
in the state, has now come out with
the announcement that henceforth it
will be a Peoples party paper.
The Herald was bitter anti-Peo
pies party paper last fall. That
there will be but two tickets in the
state in '92 is now foregone con-
clusion. Even this fall, in many
parts of the state, there will be a
fusion between the remnants of the
two old parties .-Ottaw Journal.
