How to Build Up a City.

The best way to build up a city is
to stand by every man in the place
who is trying to do right, and who
shows a tendency to promote the
business interests OF the city. All
residents uf city should be partners
for the best interests of The cOmmun.
ity. and not opponents.
When city ceases to grow it
begins to die, and the more people try
to kill each other in business the
more rapidly will utter ruin come to
all. Treat every man honestly, court
eously and fairly and then a fair
share of the business will come from
a united effort-and the better it will
be for all.
The man who only has his own in
terest at heart, because he has
property tha. will increase in value
and who is not interested beyond
that, is not a good citizen.
When man is doing we'll do not
try to tear him down, but push him
along and he will pull you along with
him. II Wellington will follow this

Washington, DC, May 1.-The fol
lowing cablegram has been received
from Admiral Dewey: apparently

town boat crew, Including Gilmore,
are prisoners at insurgent headquar'
tiers. Am continuing Investigation
Inasmuch as there were fifteen
members of the Yorktown party cap
tured by the Filipinos at Baler, and
Admiral Dewey accounts for only ten
OF them, it is feared that the other
five have been killed. They probably
were killed or fatally wounded in the
original assault upon the landing
party at Baier. The identity Of the
members Of the party still unacc0unt.
ed for is not known. A telegram was
sent to Admiral Dewey today asking
him to inform the department, II pos
sible, of the names Of the men known
10 be ln the hands of the Filipinos.
1t is accepted at the department that
the reason that he has not already
furnished these names, with the ex-
ception OF that Of Gilmore, in his dis
patch Of yesterdays date, was because
he did not have che information. The
insurgent headquarters, where Admi-
raj Dewey says the men are held
prisoners, is supposed to be San Fer
nando, but there is no assurance ou
that point.

Cost of Oil.

According to the Standard Oil
company's sworn statement in TIE
hands Of the attorney general OF
Ohio a barrel OF refined oil costs that
concern just 2-5of a Cent a gallon. In
that cost is Included raw mlteria,,
treatment, and expense Of refining
the oil. From this. says the Denver
Post, 1t would appear that someone
is making an outrageous profit by
charging the consumer 2-5 OF cent
to manufacture. With each gallon
the consumer pays for the manufact,
uring OF a barrel. The oil could be
produced and delivered at 2 cents a
gallon 10 any part Of the United
States and II sold at 5 cent a gallon
would bring an immense profit.
