The Trust Won Out

The Standard Oil lobby in this
state started in at the beginning
of the Legislative session to Sc
cure an amendment to the oil in
spection law reducing the gravity
test in operation in this state,
which must have compelled the
trust to furnish better oil than
it desired to, or else it would
not have asked the change.
The trust lobby represented
that if this change was made the
trust would no longer attack the
law in the courts. This pro-
position did not seem to take
very we'll as Attorney General
Hall had given the opinion that
he had the trust beaten in the
courts. So, a new argument
was brought forward. The
trust would furnish Kansas oil
at three cents less on the gallon
if the gravity test could be low
cred. They roped a state chem
list in to show that Kansas oil
at AZ gravity test was equal in
Illuminating quality to oil under
the present test.
Then the legislature fell into
the trap, and all oil will come in
under the low test as Kansas
oil. The Standard Oil lobby
has certainly won new laurels.

The Chicago Examiner riddles
the report of Commissioner Gar
field in which he applies a coat
OF Whitewash to the beef trust.
An extract from the examiners
editorial is as follows:
Mr.. Garfield could have dis
proved many of his own state
ments if he had taken thetrouble
to read the sworn testimony Civ
en- before the Interstate Com
merce Commission. He could
have learned there how absurd
were his remarks about the
earnings of private cars, for in
stance, and learned it from the
testimony of the very men whose
dirty schemes Of gain he has
been so industrious to defend.
He could have learned the whole
story of the criminal rebates bv
which this giant monopoly has
Deen quilt up. He could have
learned about the vast system of
underbilling and fraudulent in
spectlon. He could have learned
TOO much to make the comical
show of himself that this extra
ordinary report has revealed.
1t is enough of Mr.. Garield's
report to say that it's conclusions
are based only upon the doings
OF general companies like Swift
q Co., and deals not at all with
the private and subsidiary cor
porations by which the real pro-
hts are made (and concealed) for
the trust owners. Just to give
one illustration, of many. he
says nothing at all about the dis
trlbuting agencies for dressed
meats. Yet it is perfectly well
known that these are the imple-
ments by which the Trust mil
lions are piled up. The public

sioner Garfield who has ''investi-

thatit does business on such a

verge of bankruptcy from de-
veloping those oil regions just to

Games to Be Played With Euos.

Egg football will be found to be
an entertaining way to pass an after
noon when several children are gath
cred together. First small hole must
be pricked in both ends of the egg
shell and the contents blown out of ii:
gently and steadily so as not to break
the shell. This. of course, cannot be
done if the egg has been boiled. Then
a long table is marked out with white
lines gridiron fashion. The goal posts
are erected at the table ends. made
of crossed pieces of wood if the occa-
sion be a formal one-two books
standing five inches apart will serve
admirably for an impromptu game.
Choosing sides. the children try t.
send the egg between the goal posts
by blowing it across the table, the
scoring to be counted by the number
OF lines the egg passes. 1t will be
wise to establish quick-handed mem
Der of the party at each end of the
field to stop the egg in case it is
blown off the table. otherwise the
game is likely to come to q sudden

Immortality

The miracle of the rejuvenating
spring had been witnessed by many
thousand generations before men
dared claim as a certainty the great
nope which its parable inculcated--
before the human soul dared boldly
believe that it was itself as deathless
as the germ of life slumbering over
winter in the buried seed.
Since the Conqueror of Death Nv
the triumph which the world is TODAY
celebrating, certified the validity of
mat belief, the season in which Ma
ture annually illustrates the appoint
ed victory of life over death has he
come the most significant of all festi-
walls. At Christmas the world is glad
as children are glad-with the uncon-
sldered glee of youth At Eastertide
it rejoices as men rejoice in the pres
ence OF deliverance from fear-wit!,
recolected voices and bosoms girr
with thanllfulness.
The austerity of the earth and sky
prepares to yield to the conuuer:ng
sweetness of spring Already the
winds caress with an unfamiliar soft
ness. the earth beguiles with a dimly
green prophecy OF vernal loneliness.
Nature is timidly yearning heaven-
ward. But the hymn of awakening
life is not mere telluric nor aerial-it
sings out in the souls of men who
have considered the mystery of life
and its persistency under the sod and
through the chill of winters appar-
ent death. To such Easter Day-set
in the midst of season which wit
nesses, as far as anything earthly can
witness, to the verify of spiritual
fact; coinciding with the ancient fes-'
rivals which celebrated the immemor.

adumbrated in the dramaturgy of
Greek, Scandinavian and Aryan; but
consecrated newly to the rising from
the tomb of the Man OF Galilee-to
such Easter Day stands for the chief.
est affirmation of religion. the most
consoling and heartening thought that

have part in the joy of life refined,
