STANDARD OIL DETECTIVES.
They Furnished the Company
With Figures of All Kinds.

"Recently," writes Miss Tar
bell in McClure's. L came into
possession of large mass Of doc
uments of unquestionable authen-
ticity, showing that the Standard
Oil Company receives regularly,
at least from the railroads and
steamship lines represented in
these papers, information of all
oil shipped. A study of these
papers shows beyond question
that somebody having access to
the books of the freight office rec
ords regularly each oil shipment
passing the office; the names of
consignor and consignee, the ad-
dresses of each, and the quality
and kind of oil are given in each
case. This record is made out
usually on a sheet Of blank paper,
though occasionally the recorder
has been indiscreet enough to use
the railroad company's stationery.
The reports are evidently intend
ed not to be signed, though there
are cases in the documents where
the name of the sender has been
signed and erased: in one case a
printed head bearing the name Of
the freight agent has been used.
The name has been cut out, but
so carelessly that it has been easy
to identify him. These reports
have evidently been sent to the
office of the Standard Oil Com
pany, where they have received
a careful examination: and the
information they contained has
been classified. Wherever the
shipment entered is from one of
the distributing stations of the
Standard Oil Companys, line is
drawn through it, or it is checked
off in some way. In every other
case. in the mass of reports, there
is written, opposite the name OF
the consignee, the name of per-
son known to be a Standard agent
or salesman in the territory where
the shipment had gone.

Booker Washington's Pride.

Mr.. Washington proudly de-
clareS his pride in the fact that
he is a negro. There is tremen-
dous significance in that utter
ance. Let colored men left up
their heads. Let them cease
thinking of the difference between
the color of their skin and that
of the whites. Let them recognize
and assert ownership in the fun
damental virtues of human society
as their right and inheritance as
much as that Of the white race.
Let them cultivate that self-re-
spect which animated Burns when
he wrote GA mans a man for a.
despise and maltreat them so long
as, doing nothing unworthy of re-
spect, they respect themselves?"
It is a brave and noble thing for
one negro in this country, the con-
ditions being what they are today,
to say as Booker T. Washington
said in New York: 81 was never
prouder than | am today of being
a negro"

Dawson Sure Winner.

Governor White says 81 am
glad to say that after a careful
study of the political situation,
all over the State, 1 am thorough
ly convinced that Mr.. Dawson
will be triumphantly nominated
for Governor. He will get more
votes from the Second Congress
sihnal district than the other can
didate; he will beat him out in
the First he will have the Third
district practically unanimously !;
he will get the best end of the
votes in the Fifth district and
even in the Fourth district-he
will get his full share. The peo-
pie are for Dawson. A great deal
of noise and opposition is made
by certain politicians and corpor-
ate interests in opposition to Mr..
Dawson. But put this down
straight and do not forget it: The
nominee of the Republican party
for Governor will be the Hon.
VIM. NJ. 0. Dawson. l believe
this, and | am not accustomed to
chasing rainbows or letting my
wishes warp my judgment. Mr..
Dawson is a winner and he is the
best qualified man by training and
experience to fill the high office
of Governor, who has offered him
self for that position since the for
nation of the State" "

of water in the Ohio the year

time we would have a much finer

than we now have. Traffic on the

from one end of it to the other.
