CAN NOT COMPETE WITH RUSSIA

Standard Oil Com pany Has Found Its
Waterloo In the Cars Country.
Ii may be interesting to know that
within Russia's domain the Standard
OIL Company Is meeting some Of the
most serious opposition OF Its long life
Of plumber. This giant trust supplies
over 30 per cent Of the foreign demand
for oil. 1t has competed with the large
oil interests Of Russia. which are con-
trolled by the Rothschilds and the No
bel brothers, but 1t has never over
powered them. This Is due to the Rus
sian laws regulating foreign trade In
terests. The Standard OIL Company
controls the export price everywhere
in the world except within the limits
Of Russian territory, where compeu-
ton has not been stihed. Russia 10
just as rich In petroleum products as
Is the United States. and but for the
power of the Standard on Company
they would be supplied to America by
Russian producers. Russia protects her
oil industry by 200 per cent tariff;
the United States puts oil on the free
list The Car Is not responsible for
this state OF affairs. The power of
the Rothschilds carried 1t into effect
These astute nnanciers pictured to the
bureaucracy the infinite horror Of an
American trust slowly eating Its way
into the very center Of public recogni-
ton by supplying a staple commodity
at huctuatinG price. The Roths-
childs told the burea ucrats that II the
Standard Oh Company should become
as powerful In Russia as In America
1t would only add to the ever-burning
fires OF internal mistrust and rebellion
In one way or another. For that rea-
son the Russian government created
the high tariff and permitted the
Rothschilds and the Nobel brothers to
almost monopolize its oil industry
