BOUND TO STAY ON EARTH.

Governor Hoch in his message to the
Kansas legislature on the state REIN
ing plant and the opposition to lhe
oil trust, points out that the renedIli
measure will be incomplete unless fol-
lowed up by legislation in the matter
of freight rates, and he says:
TO the manipulation of freight rates
by the Standard Oil Company In Its
own interest, and to the serious INJURY
OF independent reliners, is largely due
the present unfortunate condition OF
affairs in Kansas.
1t is II principle of competition that
IL reduces rates. The Kansas situation
is an instance of the effects of osien-
sible competition, but actual combina-
ton. Previous to the completion OIL
the Rockefeller pipe li:eH to the Kan
sas fields the Missouri Pacific and 9th
err oil CARRYING roads had carried 100
oil for 10 cents When the Standard
pipe was ready for business these
roads raised the rate to II cents per
hundred and made the number of gal
Ions to the hundred pounds less than
fifteen Their action simply eliminate
ed the independent reiiner from the
equation and gave. the oil producer OF
Kansas the choice between leaving his
product In the wells or selling 1t to the
Standard at the Standards own price.
1t was a simple act of piracy where
the captives are ordered to walk the
plank as in the days of Kidd and
Blackboard.
But it ends there. The people Will
not get off the earth For years poll-
ticans have smiled when Judge Van
Wagenen and his government owner
ship planks have come before demo-
cratic conventions Now the demand
for government control is the voice OF
the people. and refusal or evasion OF
this demand is ready bringing sugges-
lions of government ownership from
men and newspapers that few
months ago would have scoffed their
own suggestion. When ii comes to a
question of owning or being owned by
the railroads, the oil interests or any
other monopoly. there is no doubt
which horn of the dilemma Will be
grasped by the American people.

TAKING THEM IN.
MURRAY News.

There are two farmers in this vicin-
ity who will probably not be quite 50
willing to patronize travelling agents
and mail order houses after the eXper-
fence of u short time ago. "A certain
gifted salesman not long ago visited
some of the farmers not far from Mall
vern and in his buggy he hal several
macintosh coats the regular CD price
of which was SIS. To one farmer he
sold a coat for $3.50, and to another he
sold two coats, one for the farmer ana
one for his wife For these Two coats
he paid the sum of $12. A short time
after purchasing the coats one of these
farmers was in Malvern and in one
of the local dry goods stores he saw
a coat which he recognized as being
exactly like the one he had recently
purchased. He asked the prce OF the
coat and Il salesman replied $3.50. And
yet some people think that the home
merchants are attempting to hold them
