its normal temperature and mud,
and all is quiet along the Potomac.
The "Bastile" has twelves in
mates now. Deputy Ireland brought
two in yesterday, c. c. Hays and
his brother on capias.
The storm, Sunday, wrecked sew

three speakeasies in the Elk Fork
field, blowing them off their founda-
tons.
Charles Carpenter met with very
painful accident. While driving a
team for D. Morey & Son, near
Wick, he accidentally stepped on
on a nail and it ran into his foot

ugly wound nearly through his
foot. Heis much better and is able
to walk about some.

weeks with pneumonia, is much

There seems to be ray OF light
coming to the miners of this coun
try from the recent meetings IN
Chicago. We trust that the reports
may be fully realized, for If there
is a class of hard working people
in this nation whose condition
should be improved, it is the min,
ers. They work harder and under
more unpleasant circumstances tor
less money than any other group
of American toilers. The people
should pay more for their coal, and
the addition should go straight to
the tables ofthe miners, which are
never over supplied, even in pros
porous times.

Uncle Sans men of war are grad
ually nearing the Cuban shores, but
are yet too far away to exert any
moral influence for the protection
of American residents on that
island. After a lot of them have
lost their lives at the hanos OF a
Spanish mob, the war vessels will
reach Havana, and the regular
course of diplomacy will be resorted
to for damages for the sacrificed
lives. Such is the protection Amer,
leans in other lands receive from
their home government.

oil company to the lines of the in
dependent Interests increases the
strength and capital of those enter
prises.
Measured with the hopes and de-
sires of the sanguine and ardent,
the achievements of the independ-
ents may not have reached the high
pitch of theif expectations, but
when the magnitude of the move
ment entered into, the obstacles ana
difficulties which they have had to
encounter, the power and unscrupu
lous character of the Standard OPP
nosition with which they have
had to contend is considered, the
work during their short existence
has certainly brought about results
that should satisfy and encourage
every reasonable mind.
Producers everywhere have rec
ognized that without these interests
thew must have been plunged into
the depths of apathy and despair
but now they feel they have some
thing to fight for and something
which if they can successfully sup
port will free them from their con-
dition of servitude to the onlpote1t
monopoly.
The gage of battle has now been
thrown down and the whole world,
which at first looked on with curl
osity, is now interested in extend
ing sympathy and support to the
weaker but determined indepen-
dents. If then ever there was an
enterprise that needed encourage,
ment and support for their un-
daunted pluck, unslackened zeal,
and undiminished effort, it is the
independent pipe line interests, and
it is gratifying that so many OF our
producers are responding to their
cali tor financial aid that they may
extend their lines of battle to the
fields where they are most needed.

There seemed to be little timi'

The arrogance with which the
price is dictated, and the excuses
rendered for its remaining at such
low level is a mockery to the in
dividual rights and manhood of oil
producers, regardless of locality.
In the upper oil fields the con-
tinued low prices is driving many
producers to bankruptcy, and in
the lower oil fields they are fast be-

oily, and their properties are being
reduced in value to such an ex-

Seep's self-explanatory letters and
published statements to the con
trary. 1t is a commendable and
noteworthy fact that just such per-
iods of depression as now exists in
the producing business, has been
the means of arousing the producers
to action which will afford them
protection in their property inter
ests.
The project of organizing the
different independent companies
originated during times of very
great depressions, and at times
when the oil producers were very
poor and driven to dire extremities.
From these independent compa-
MES have grown the great pipe line
system which they now control.
This system of pipe lines has been
steadily pushed forward in spite OF
oppositions and distractions from
the Standard Oil company, until
now it is a perfect system extend
ing far into the interior of the Penn
sylvania oil fields and within few
miles of the seaboard. 1t is the only
rival of the Standard Oil company
that has been able to withstand its
merciless attacks. 1t is the belief
of the managers of these pipe lines
that more thoroughly perfect sys-
tenn can be made and more per-
manent rival of the great monopoly
be established by pushing the sys
tenn on to the newer and more pro-
life fields of West Virginia.
The Review is of the opinion
that nothing can exceed the i'm
portance of the full success of this
project to the oil producing inter
ests of West Virginia. In the FIVE
wears of warfare which the Stand
ard Oil company has waged against
the independent pipe line interests
and the independent oil producers,
the managers of these interests
have strictly adhered to the one
proposition-advance. 1t is more
with this purpose that they com,
nit their enterprises to the sub
scription of the producers and roy
atty owners of this prolific territory.
It should not be lost sight of that
every barrel of producers oil run
into the pipe line system of the
Standard Oil company increases
their wealth by pipeage revenue
of IS cents per barrel (including
local and seaboard) and every barrel
of oil directed from the Standard
