SUGAR TRUST POLITICS.
Close Relations of Wall Street and the
Democratic Party.


New York Letter in Los Angeles Times.l
When New York State was being got
into line for Judge Parker, Havemeyer
put on guard for Parker one OF his own
men. Cord Meyer by name. Cord Meyer
is the sugar trusts representative in
Democratic councils. The Republican
party is able to get along without having
sugar trust representative in its coun-
ellis. but il Democrats come into power.
il will be Cord Meyers happy duty to
make sugar stock go up and down on the
New York Stock Exchange and to let
1t be known to anxious statesmen when
1t is going up and when it is going down.
Do the people out West know that in
New York. when the Democrats desire to
carry an election, they 20 out and tell
the district leaders that certain stock
on the New York Stock Exchange. say
Manhattan Elevated. will go up SIS per
share in case OF Democratic success 2
That is what they do, and it does go up.
too. and that shows how close the Demo
cratic party is to Wall street in New
York. where Parker and his cohorts come
from. They buy elections with stock
tips. and Cord Meyer, Billy Sheehsn and
Belmont are extraordinarily good tip

THE OIL INDUSTRY
At PROMONT TORY.

THE OLD COLUMBIA DISTRICT.
A Nevada Camp in Which Salt Lake
And Ogden People are Interested
Today's Exchange

After all the advertising the oil in
dustry OF Salt Lake valley has received,
II begins to look as II those operating
on the Promontory will yet win out In
the race In the production OF both oil
and It's by-products. The Utah OIL q
Liquid asphalt company, with a large
body OF choice hydrocarbon lands on
the Promontory, west OF Ogden and
Brigham City from which oil and
liquid asphalt have been flowing fer
many years, began prospecting these
deposits several months ago by dig
glng wells In the seeps with the result
that the flow has been greatly increas-
ed. The product, as 1t comes from
Mother Earth, consists of 81 per cent
asphaltum, and 43 per cent Illuminating
and lubricating oils OF the finest quail
ity and is therefore a heavy product;
too heavy, In fact, TO flow freely, hence
the operators conceived the plan of
placing a steam boiler at the bottom Of
one OF the wells, at a depth of 100 feet,
connecting the same with similar
boiler on the surface. In the boiler on
the surface steam was generated, which
was carried to the boiler in the bottom
of the well, which warmed and llquihed
the asphaltum so as greatly to in
crease the flow. The experiment, though
not perfect, produced between 400 and
500 gallons day, and proved that the
scheme would be all that was expected,
when perfected.
From 500 to 800 gallons from a single
well proves TO the management of the
company what can be done by placing
boilers In the other three wells now
unused, and with possible production
of from 1000 TO $1,000 gallons from the
wells already sunk, the company Is so
encouraged that II will doubtless in
crease the number of its wells, making
the oil industry a reality In northern
Utah.
With the idea of still further promot-
ing this enterprise, Mr.. Jesse j. Driver
OF Ogden Will run an excursion tomor-
row 10 the Promontory oil fields. con-
slstlng OF about 30 Salt Lake and Og-
den people who are interested In the
company, that they may sec for them
selves the success Of the new plan of
oil production. That the company has
the asphalt-oil In abundance ana Of SUI
perior quality, there Is no doubt, and
that II can be produced In the manner
mentioned VIII pc SHOWN TO the enthu-
siastlc excurslonlsts when they arrive
at the wells.
From this time on it is the intention
Of the company to undertake the hand
ling of its product, which will most
likely be by reducing II by the oll-still
refinery method and, TO that end, Dr.
Salathe, the oil chemist and expert,
who came from Switzerland and who
brought success out of failure for the
Pennsylvania oil & Gas company, at
its refinery at Casper, Wyo,, may be
secured to solve the problem of re-
ducing and refining the product
