The outlook for the oil producers is
growing brighter every day and with
another rise or two in the price there
viii be activity in the entire western
field. 1T is now announced that the
Cudahys have financed a proposed
pipe line from Chelsea to st. Louis
and will erect a refinery with a ca
pacity of 5000 barrels day. OF
course this is only small proposition
of the product but, together with
other interests win be a great help to
the business. There will soon be a
number of independent refineries in
operation in addition to those already
at work and the product will be pretty
well consumed. With the great crops
in Kansas and the activity of the oil
interests a prosperous era will be upon
us. The country generally is in a
very prosperous condition but our
own Kansas is getting the cream Of
the situation and all the towns and
cities throughout the oil belt will make
new strides in the near future.-Cof-

GOULD a WTNNEE

Joseph Ramsey will lose his fight
for control of the Wabash No man
has ever fought Geo. Gould and won.
For a young man born to wealth he
is the most successful manipulation
in the United States. He has been
at one time and another pitted
against all the big financial giants and
he has always won. Gould's life Is an
inspiration to the young man Of wealth
like the life of some self made man is
to the poor and struggling youth.
Soon after the death of his father
Gould determined to spread out and
make his Missouri Pacific one of the
big roads. He was fought at every
turn but he won. He has won every
fight since and he will win this one.
He is too much like his father to lose.
