Standard Oil Methods.
From the Philadelphia Public Ledger, Rel

By neat trick, made possible by its enor-
nous wealth, the Standard Oil Company has
headed off a threatening rival in the Texas oil
field and made itself absolutely master of the
situation. It has bought up the wharves, rail
road terminals and shipping facilities at Port
Arthur, the natural shipping port of the Beau.
mont field, together with 80, 900 acres of land
in the vicinity, which is doubtless located in
such a manner as to preclude any attempt of
the Texas oil men to establish new outlet
1t would not be profitable for them to ship
their oil to tidewater at more distant point,
and hence they are at the mercy of the Stand
ard, and must sell their product to it at its own
price. This is how the ideal trust overcomes
competition.
