Kansas and the Oil MONOPOLY.

The State of Kansas mas begun a
war on the STANDARD Oil Company,
and as is the rule with that Common
wealth., no matter whether the admin
~istration be. in the hands of the re-
publicanS or f~usiOnists, is making con-
siderable fuss about it. Following is
the provision Of an anti-discriminatiOn
bill recently passed by the legislature:
ANY person, firm or corporation,
foreign or domestic, doing business in
the State Of Kansas and engaged in the
production, manufacture or distribution
of any commodity in general use, that
shall Intentionally, for the purpose of
destroying competition, discriminate be-
tWeeE different sections, communities Or
cities Of the state by selling such COM
modify at a lower rate in one commu-
nifty, or any portion thereof, than is
charged for such commodity in another
community, after equalizing the dis
lance from the point of production,
manufacture or distribution and freight
rates therefrOm, shall be deemed guilty
of unfair discrimination
Reports from Kansas say tina tee
people and officials are united in their
efforts to drive the oil trust out Of
the state. They must indeed be deter
mined, for The Kansas City Star says:
Woe to any deserted who may leave
the ranks to isht or the side of Stand
ard OIL This is apparently dramatic
enough even for Kansas, and seems
to spell utter ruin for the boss monop-
oily 50 far as this great Western Com
nOnWealth is concerned. There is,
however, we fear, a good deal more
Importance attached to his contest
thar it deserves. The Standard Oil
Company's operations should be curb
ed, and if Kansas succeeds in doing
this, she will confer a great favor on
the country at large, but it will be
time to praise the former bleeding
Commonwealth when the oil monopoly
has been routed. The effort is worthy
of praise, but entirely too much noise
has been created for the ends actually
attained-Charlotte Observer.

The Reason is Plain.

h Statesville Landmark makes q
great to do over an act of the legisla-
ture by which the hotels in the Toxa-
way county and the Mountain Park
Hotel at Hot Springs are allowed to
ssell liquor in unbroken packages to
gnests of their hostelries. The action
OF the legislature is as plain as day
light and we are ~astonished that the
Landmark does not see it. We be-
Iieve in protection to home industries;
the legislature wants to protect our
nome people from drink, but seems
not to care a rap for the "~furnier,"
for he is payin' the freight; in other
words, We are to be allowed to pull
the leg of the Yankee who comes to
see us and spend the summer. He's
got the stuff and we want it; it's no
harm to fill him to the brim, but all
wrong to let our own folks have q
taste.-Greensboro Record.

Not His Fault.

If the work of the legislature has
to Governor Glenn. He has been do
ing his best and has broken ali records
in sending in special messages. He
deemed these necessary Or he would
not ave done so, yet the legislature
mas in effect said to him-"We know
our business; you attend to your end
Of the line and~we'H do the same"
at least their action gives rise to such
a thing, for they have. paid little heed
to him. The time may come when
they will wish they had No man is
closer to the people than Governor
Glenn, and he has been close to them
MI the time. This was clearly evil
denced by his race for governor.
Practically every politician was
against him, but he banked on the
people and they landed. him. There
fore it is reasonable to suppose hat
he knows what the people want far
better than even a member of the leg
islature, for one county may be OF one
mind. while h adjoining it may
be all wrong, but Governor Glenn
takes the state as a whole and he
knows the sentiment Of the people.
We hope h legislature has made no
mistake in ignoring his advice. but
We very much fear it has done this
Very thing. Time will tell.-Creens-

Of money. In the drawer was several

THE CHRISTIAN SABBATH.
What the Civilized World Owes to its

The following apostrophe to the
Sabbath, from the G Of h Rev.
DR.. Stephens, of England, has been
received from William Denman, of
Hyde Park ave-, Scranton. Penn. with
the request that it be printed in the
columns of this issue:
o sabbath, Needed for a world Of
innccenee-without thee would
be a world OF sin. There would be
10 pause for consideration, no check
10 passion, no remission or toll, no
balm of care. : He who had withheld
thee would have forsaken the earth.
Without thee, he had never given US

Eden-more awful than when the
trumpet rang of thee in Sinai, The
Christian SABBATH Like its Lord, it
but rises again in Christianity, n
henceforth records the rising day.
And never since the tomb of Jesus was
burst open by Him who revived and
rose, has this day awakened but as the
light of seven days II with healing
in its wings! Never has it unfolded
without some witness and welcome,
some song and salutioni It has been
the coronation day of martyrs, the last
day of saintsi 1t has been from the
first until now the sublime custom of
the churches of God! still the outgo-
ings of it's morning and it's evening

birthright, labor's only rest! Nothing
has such a hoar Of antiquity on it:
Nothing draws along with it such
glory: Nurse of virtue, seal of truth.

the nations noblest safeguard, The
pledge Of peace, the fountain of intel
