The Standard Oil
COmpany's Danger.

There has been nothing that has oc-
CURED since the Standard Oil Company
succeeded in crushing all rivals that
has affected If not iepsrdized its inter-
ests like the great discovery of oil at
Beaumont, Texas. The yield in that
field is so enormous. and the cost OF
production is so very low, that it would
seem that the Standard cannot compete
with the Beaumont field, If any COM
pany or companies can be found to han
die Beaumont's product.
That the Beaumont product will find
companies to handle it, there can no
longer be q doubt. Its very low price
will make demand for Ii, for fuel, that
viii be limited only by the worlds
market 1t is 90 near the sea coast, st
Port Royal, harbor that is ample and
never closed, that it will be shipped in
bulk to all the seaports of the CONNER
ciaI world.
Already steps have been taken to
provide for it's shipment From the
Port Arthur News, of January 4, we
learn that the ''Shell Transport Com
pany," of London, England, has made
arrangements with the 81. M. Guffey
Petroleum Company" If Pittsbug, Pa,
which controls the greater part Of the
Beaumont output, to carry large part
of its product to English and Continen-
tai markets. The London Statist says
of this company, that it is to become
the distributor of the Beaumont pro-
duct outside of America, and that 1t
has storage for 1000 tons OF oil,
throughout the world, and that it will
furnish transportation to equal the de-
mand. Seven thousand tons of the oil
were to arrive at London about the
first of the year, and weekly shipments
70 that port were to be made. These
facts indicate the immense market
there will be for the Beaumont oil for
use as fuel outside America.
It Is said the oil is too heavy for use
for lighting, that it cannot be refined
But it will be remembered that thil
was said at first of Ohio oil.
sThe Port Arthur News" referred
10 above, says that the 81. M. CUTIE!
Petroleum Company" has made con
tracts for the erection of mammoth
refinery, to be erected at Port Arthur
ct a cost of a million dollars or more
The oil is to be refined by new pro
cess discovered by the expert refner o
the Guffey company, and an immens'
refining business will be done.
The Guffey company is the one will
which our former townsman, Thos. b
Rovd. is connected as Auditor.

Mr.. ]. Q. A Campbell and his es-
timable wife were in the village last
Friday night, having come here on the
occasion OF public installation of Of
icers by ]. M. Arthur Post and its
auxiliary, the W. r. c. At an early
hour the large hall was brilliantly
lighted, showing the handsome decora-
tions in all their beauty and splendor,
and all the available space was filed
with guests from Roundhead, Hunts
Vile and Lakeview. 1t would be folly
for US to attend to describe the beauty
of the exercises, but will say that they
were exceedingly fine. Mr.. Campbell,
as installing officer of the G. A. R.,
conducted the work in an impressive
manner, and the 'old boys" gave earn
est heed and prompt obedience to the
commands Of their superior officer
At the close of the G. A. r. installa
tion, the W. r. G. opened their work
with q most beautiful drill during
which the officers were conducted II
their respective posts, after which Mrs
Campbell in her easy, graceful manner
proceeded to install the officers elect
The services were one continuous drill
and surpassed anything Of the kind WI
ever witnessed.
: NOTES.
MIS-. Lille Shockey presided at th'
organ and skillfully conducted th'
musical part of the services.
1t is conceded that J. M. Arthur w
r. C. has some of tho best drilled Off
GERS in the State.
Comrade Lawrence Saunders, as Off
GERS of the Day, did splendidly.
The old soldiers are not as spry a
they used to be.
-Comrade Campbell suggests that th
ladies fight the next war. Don't blam
him.
Spicy speeches, ham sandwiches an
hot coffee were served as last cours
and all departed feeling well entertain

W. r. c. would intall quarterly q

have appealed to Charles r. Skinner,
state superintendent of public instruc'

the work OF the high school grad

to be graduated with that class.
Their petition states that they
should have been regularly gradual

they have not been fairly treated.
They complain of Principal Floyd j.
Bartlett and say that since he has
been in the school they have been
misused and ill-treated by him and
