Has Room FOR e.oOO ON WeIIs.

The Uncle Sam company started out
on the safe and practical basis of own
ing and operating it's own oil proper
ties. It now has seventy-nine wells
and five pumping plants and over
thirty thousand acres of oil lands on
which is room for over six thousand
nearly this company is doing what it
contemplated. 1t has oil territory
enough right now to feed its great re-
fincry now completed and the other
two proposed refineries and pipe lines
for a century. The stock that you can
secure now will certainly grow in
value as the rapid development of
these properties progresses.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1905-07-19

now completed by the Uncle Sam COM
pany and will be putting oil on the
market in five days. When you invest
in this company you secure stock that
is easily worth Is cents per share
right now. Refineries and pipe lines
and a vast acreage of oil lands and oil
wells are valuable. The ACherryvale
refinery will have an earning capacity
of over six hundred dollars per day
under present conditions and it is all
ready being enlarged. The company
will have no trouble to sell it's entire
output at the present trust prices, but
will deliver oil worth third more
than trust oil on account of its purity.
The superintendent of the Uncle Sam
refinery is from the Pure Oil company
of Pennsylvania The Uncle Sam COM
pany is going to be in the west what
the Pure Oil company is in the east.
1t will manufacture the very finest
grades of oils, and with nearly three
thousand stockholders scattered all
over the central west will have friends
to work for the sale of Uncle Sam
brands everywhere at prices that will
make the stockholders of this COM
pany substantial profit on their invest
ments. Better send in 500 now and
secure 1000 shares before the ad-
vance. Write for prices on fuel and
refined oil at once.

CONFEDERATE REUNION.
Louisville Announces that All Veterans
viii Be Cared For.


viii Be Cared For.
Louisville, Ky, Feb is. To
Confederate Veterans: Charged
with your entertainment at the
10Th Reunion of the United Con-
fed rate Veteran Association to be
held in Louisville on the 14th,
10Th and 10th days of June, 1905,
on behalf of Kentucky and Louis-
vile, we desire to extend to you
the sincerest and most cordial
invitation to be present on that
occasion.
We recall with the fact that in
the past there has been some
complaint that the sucial enter
tainment for the sponsors and
maids of honor and, others, had in
some degree interfered with pro-
visions for the care and pleasure
of the veterans themselves. With
out sitting in Judgment in any
way en- others, we hope in the
conduct of this Reunion to avoid
all just grounds for such criticism
Of this kind in Louisville, and to
make such provision Tor all the
veterans who attend that they
will feel that as it is their reunion
they will have received every
possible pleasure that such an oc-
casion can bring.
Louisville and Kentucky feel
highly honored to have these
Confederate soldiers in their
bounds. both historically and
politically Louisville appreciates
the coming of the Southern sol
dlers in their midst, and the peo-
pie propose to make this one Of
the most memorable occasions in
the history of the Association.
To relieve all apprehension OF
doubt, we send out this announce
ment that in allfthat can be done
for the veterans, the coming re-
union will be in the highest sense
veterans reunion, and nothing
will be left undone here thai
can add to their happiness or com
fort.
While the veterans shall have
