A number of years ago the
Rockefeller crowd went down in
to Kansas and the Indian Terri
tory, drilled a number of oil
wells, and discovered a vast field
of rich petroleum. Being a trust
and knowing that nobody else
could do anything with this pro-
duct, they plugged up the holes
and left the country, expecting
to obtain sufficient oil from the
Pennsylvania and other fields SO
that this new region might not
be opened for some twelve or
fifteen years longer. The rabid
falling off in the older fields.
however, necessitated the open
ing of the Kansas and Indian
Territory fields. Tremendous
activity has resulted, an expen-
sive pipe line has been built by
the trust to transport the oil pro-
duced by private enterprise and
things were going along swim
mingly. The price of oil was in
the neighborhood of a dollar.
AS soon as q we'll was shot the
Standard was on the ground
ready to pay the highest price
for it's output. This apparent
fairness of the trust enabled it
to make contracts for the output
at the market price. Since
the fields have been developed
aud connected with the standard
pipe line oil has suddenly drop
ped from a dollar to less than
fifty cents. This class of swind-
ling, accompanied with trust
arrogance and insolence, was one
too many for Kansas. She noted
that the price of crude oil was
about a cent a gallon, while the
price of kerosene allowed con-
siderable more than a reasonable
margin of profit for refining.
She therefore proposes to have
a state refinery, her Representa-
tives in Congress have secured a
resolution calling on the national
government to investigate this
instance of '.restraint of trade
and the President, in response to
Kansan pleas. has jumped in and
has ordered a searching investi-
CATION made of the Standard Oil
system, especially as it applies to
this little Kansas episode. 1t
seems that the people of Kansas
mean business and the country
is with Kansas.

There are said to be in this cou.
try about 1000 persons who re-
ceive a higher salary than the
president of the United States.
This is just that number to many.
An annual salary of $4,000 is as
high as compensation should be
fixed for anybody. Insurance
and railroad companies pay un.
reasonably high salaries, as high
as 800, 600. Some corporation
attorneys get more than $4,000,
but insurance and railroad com
anies r the most generous in
paying high salaries. 1t is easy
to figure out who has to pay
these big salaries.

Now we feel that complaint is de
manded from the further fact which
san be established that while the
sprinkler is supposed to be operated
ten hours per day that last summer
it was not in use more than about
eight hours per day. And under the

had to submit to a service of 10 tanks

Land & Investment Company of Chi

stated that the company are planning
to get control of from 10O, 600 to 30O,-
900 acres of and near here.
I'VE have just about finished up
our property in the Pecos Valley
said Mr.. Tallmadge, and now we are
looking for another tract of land. IL
the deal is closed here it will cover
a tract of from 100. ZOO to 300 900

are going to buy that much and pay
for it, but we must have control of
that much.
The tract in question is near this
city. How near and where I cannot
Tell you now, but the deal will prob
ably be closed, if it is to be closed at
all, in the next week or ten days.
This country is the only country
for immigration in the United States
ands of people from the North and
East will come here in the next few
wears. Here there is ample room for
Ill h may come for many years
yet, and the climate is all that could
be expected. Texas is certainly the
coming state of the union, and as
long as l am in my present business
1 hardly think I will work anywhere
but in the Southwest, and by the
Southwest l mean in Texas, and that
in the northeastern portion.
one deal either, but there are sever
al that we have in mind, and all of
that is, it would not take any great
length of time to travel to Fort Worth
from such locality. To tell you the
truth, 1 do not know what our next
step will be, for we are undecided
in ourselves, but it will not be long
before We decide upon something.
The next few days will probably tell
the tale"
In speaking of Texas Mr.. Tailmad-
se On to say that there are many
immigration AGENTS working in 9th
er portions of the United States, but
that in no place are these agenta
meeting with such success as is be
ing met here in Texas.
In the next fopr years should
not be surprised if the state doubles
its present population added Mr..
Tallmadge, for the influx of peo-
pie of the country where there is
now scarcely breathing room will be
more than the average Texan ever
imagines from now on. Texas offers
almost a paradise to the farmer, the
merchant, to all classes, and with no
reason to prevent their coming why
shouldn't there be a great influx of
people here?"
Mr.. Tallmadge wiF leave today to
look after the interests of the firm
the next week or so after having in
vestigated the deal h now has on,
and will then know something worth
relating in regard to the proposed
colony.

Rabbi Napian Delivers the Annual
Address to II. a.. N. I.
Gymnasium Hall was completely
filled Sunday morning when Rabbi
Jacob H. Kaplan, of Albuquerque.
gave the annual address to the stu
dents of the New Mexico Military
Institute. 1t was the first large ga
thering of the present commence
menI, and it was more especially to
the graduating class of OF that the
remarks of the talented speaker were
directed.
Taking his text from the fifth chap
ter of Second Kings, Rabbi Kaplan
taught the listeners a beautiful and
valuable lesson. The Scripture les
son was the story of the leper who.
when told to wash in the river Jor-
dan seven times seven in order to
have his flesh made clean, was disap-
pointed, having expected to have lis
BODY puT1ned by the prophet laying
on his hands or by some other pers-
onal application of his power, and of
how the leper was made clean when
he carried out the instructions Civ
en-. From this reading he showed the
various kinds of lepers of the pres
ent day; of the black ones and the
white ones, who are just as bad as
the black, if not so repulsive in out
ward appearance.
Incidental to the subject of The
morning, the speaker exposed many
of the shams and follies of men of
today. as well as the men of all ages.
His address was full of wisdom and
bright thoughts and the one great
lesson that all men should wash
themselves in the stream of love,
charity and goodness and become
clean of the leprosies of this world
was impressed especially on the
minds of the class of '05, as they
stood in the presence of the speaker.
The music of the service was most
beautiful. Mesdames Goslin and Pra-
ger and Misses Rabb and Keller com
posed the choir, and their parts in
the service were full of rich melody.
The Institute band rendered several
selections that showed good training
and careful study and practice.
Rabbi Kaplan spoke again Sunday
evening at the Presbyterian church,
AT which. time the same choir that
had sung in the morning gave excel
lent music. Rabbi Kaplan's evening
discourse was full of wisdom and en-
tertaining, as have been all of the
addresses he has made since he came
to Roswell. The house was packed.
