The Problem,

There is a good deal of criticism
of the Standard Co. going the
rounds. Much of it, doubtless, just
but it looks very much like some o.
it may be unfair. All admit thai
the great development of oil ir
Kansas and the territory has sur
prised every body and the Standard
Co. more than any body.
The Standard has, apparently,
made great efforts to keep its hand
ling capacity up to the requirements
of the field, but developments have
been so rapid she has utterly failed.
When the refinery at Kansas City
is complete its capacity in connect
ION with the Neodesha refinery will
be some 10, 1000 barrels per day
short of the production. Now the
question comes what are you going
to do with this large and rapidly
and increasing surplus'
Already the talk is going the
rounds that the Standard will build
pipe line to Whiting, in her efforts
to handle this large and rapidly in
creasing surplus. Should the Stan
dard undertake this great enterprise
it will take a long time to build the
line and the wonder comes, what
will we do with our oil in the mean.
timer
The producers are becoming
restless under the conditions and
prospects and production is very
much retarded.
There is feeling among many
producers that independent refner
les should be started to work up the
surplus. Others claim that the only
solution to the trouble is pipeline
TO the gulf. Independent refneries
on a small scale could be started
throughout the field, and, we, un-
derstand, 1t has never been the
policy of the Standard to fight pro
ducers that refine only their own
oil.
This might make a market for a
portion Of the surplus. The line to
the gulf is all right in theory, on the
assumption that there is a constant
and never failing market for oil
when landed, there.l We are not in
formed on this point. If there is a
constant market there at a good
price the pipe line Is the solution

The Eastern War.

Japan has been making rapid
strides since one last issue. The
Russian fleet came out from under
the protecting guns of Port Arthur
and attempted to run the gauntlet of
Japanese guard ships stationed out.
side.
The formation of the Russian fleet
was soon broken and it became
every vessel for itself. A number
of Russia's best vessels were des.
troyed or rendered unfit for service.
Darkness came on during the fight
and the Russian vessels that could
navigate sought near by neutral
ports. Several of them have been
seized by the warships of neutral
powers and disarmed. The few
that escaped are supposed TO be
making their way as best they can
to Vladivostok.
The strong Vladivostok fleet was
sent out to meet the fleeing Port
Arthur vessels but was met by a
detachment of the Japanese fleet
and almost destroyed. One of the
largest cruisers beng sunk and the
others sent back in badly damaged
condition. The Japanese vessels
are reported to have received no
very serious damage and to have lost
few men in the several naval battles
while the loss among the Russians
was heavy. Russia now has no
fleet of any consequence in oriental
waters. The Japanese have con
stantly hammered away on the Port
Arthur Notifications and taken one
fort after another by assault till their
artillery commands the harbor and
NAN Notifications.
The bombardment is furious and
continuous both from Japanese
siege guns and the Japanese war
vessels. The fortress can hold out
but little longer at best and the final
assault may have taken place ere
this.
The Japanese land forces have
driven the Russians from strong
hold otter stronghold till nothing
seems to remain for them to do but
fight superior force or retreat on
their extreme northern bases. The
Russians have simply been whipped
and rourted on every hand and
shown themselves inferior in every
way to their waspish opponents.

are facing the problem of vast
quantities of oil and no adequate
market. 1t is no time for fault

Our Home and Foreign Markets
Safe

1t is fact that we have captured
the markets of the world for all of
our products both agricultural and
manufactured and in domestic pro
ducts we stand today as the first
exporting nation on the face of the
earth. This has been accomplished
under the operation of protective
tariff without sacrificing any of our
own markets. without lowering our
high scale of wages and without sub
mitting our own people to the COM
petitions of the pauper labor of
other countries.
1t is the greatest and most sub
stantial victory ever recorded in
dustrial warfare in all history and
yet this remarkable foreign trade
which has been built up solely under
our protective tariff is only small
part of our industrial achievement.
Foreign market for surplus pro-
duction are all very well in itself and
very welcome when it can be gained
without sacrificing any portion of
our home market. But it is this
home market of ours which has
been built up and maintained
through our protective tariffs and
particularly during the operations
of the law now on our statute books
which is not only the pride of every
American citizen but the envy of
every foreign producer.
A most conservative estimate of
the value of this internal commerce
is twenty-five billion dollars annu
ally, equal in value to the combined
markets of the world for the pur-
chase of foreign production. If we
could control the sale of all the
goods which enter every port on
the face of the earth it would only
equal that which we now supply to
our home market, an assured mar
ket. which is constantly increasing.
This grand home market of ours
cannot be maintained if we let down
our protection bars and adopt low
tariff or if we enter into reciprocity
arrangements in competing articles
which is the same or at least long
step towards this same free trade
notion.
This internal commerce of ours
has been made possible only be-
cause of our splendid wage system
which has brought about higher
standard of living and demand by
our masses for more than the mere
necessities of life. 1t is not necessary
or it ough not to be to do more than
call attention to this feature of our
tariff and industrial system. 1t has
been made clear time and again and
yet the Democratic party persists ID
losing sight of this market at our
very doors in its desire to gain an
insignificant percentage based upon
theory and not borne cut by facts,
in our sales to foreign ountr es.
If it came to the touch it would
be better to sacrifice portion of
our foreign markets than any con-
siderable portion of our home mar
kets. But figures show that it is not
necessary to make any sacrifice
VIII ltever under the benehclent
operation of a protective tariff. We
have not only maintained and in
creased our home market during
these past few years. but we have
constantly increased. our foreign
markets at the same time and more
rapidly than any other country of
world.
Would it not be folly to give up
the nrotective tariff system in the
The Chanute times., 1904-08-19

The American tariff system, as
operated under Republican poll
cies, makes the competing foreign
article carry the burden, draw the
load, supply the revenue; and in
performing this essential Office it
encourages at the same time our
own industries and protects our
people in their chosen employments.

Protection has made US just that

the benefits of the protective tariff.
