JUST TO Be GOOD.
That Is All Kansas Wants From
the Standard.
Mr.. Campbell Says Doesn't Want
1t Put Out.
MONEY FOR K. S. A. C.

Experiment Station.
Already Passed House and Has
Clear Way in Senate.

Washington, March 16.-''There never
has been any disposition on the part of
the state Of Kansas to drive the Stand
ard Oil company forcibly and bodily out
of the state. There is, however, and
will continue to be. a disposition to see
that the Standard Oil company observes
the law, and behaves itself in a decent
manner"
This remark was made by Representa-
tive Philip P. Campbell, of the Third
district, today. AS Mr.. Campbell has
been engaged for the past year in an
endeavor to do something effective to
regulate the conduct of the Standard
Oil company. any remark he might make
on this subject is Of interest.
. The remark quoted was made by Mr..
Campbell after his attention had been
called to a recent editorial in the Wash
ington Post which facetiousIy compar-
cd the state of Kansas with the state
Of Missouri The Post, in substance
declared it was strange that Kansas, a

gagged in up-to-date reform movement,

Continuing. Mr. Campbell said.
You will recall that it was a citizen
of Ohio who went to Kansas during the
Standard Oil excitement one year ago,
who initiated, prepared. and filed this
custer proceeding against Standard Oil.
He returned shortly after to Ohio.
I'm my judgment the dismissal Of the
custer proceedings has no special sig
nif7cance, and is worthy Of no particu-
lar attention. 1t will not interfere at
all with the work that has been done,
and viii continue to be done, in an or
Derby, lawful, sane manner, to compel
this great corporation to observe the
rights of others in the conduct of its
business.
I'VE want the Standard Oil company
in Kansas. We want all great COM
panies which contribute to our prosper
fty, and to the successful conduct Of
business to come to and to remain IN
the state. What we do want, and shall
insist upon, in Kansas and out Of it,
is that this corporation shah have no
special privileges which its competitors
do not enjoy"
It is the impression in Washington

state commerce commission. brought on

ATTORNEY FOR GREGORY
PAGE MAKES STATEMENT.

According to statement made by
the attorney for Gregory Page, Of Gal.
lup, who Is alleged to have caused
the death of Walter Jones. in that
town, by striking him on the head
with blunt instrument, various news
papers have misrepresented the case.
The coroner's jury did not return
verdict that tho death Of Jones was
caused by Page, but said that Jones
died from meningitis, resulting
from blows administered by Page and
from negligence in not taking proper
care Of himself after being struck.
The evidence shows that Page
struck the man, not with blunt In
strument, but twice with his bare fist.
Jones was out and around, three days
after the accident, before death over
took him and was drinking all the
time.
The people of Gallup instead Of be-
ing indignant as reported, are wrought
up over the reports that have been sen:
out and Mr.. and Mrs. Gregory Page
have the sympathy Of the entire COM
munlty.

Artillery on Practice March Goes Fast
Men and Horses in Bad

Kansas City. Mo-, Jan. PA spe-

the Sixth Field Battery Of United
States Artillery, commanded by Cap
tain G. w. Gatchell, entered Fort Sam
Houston today amid the cheers OF the
local garrison. A.
The battery broke the worlds rec

Of artillery, having covered distance
Of 100 miles from Fort Riley, Kan
sas, to Fort Sam Houston in fifty-five
days. The men presented sorry ap'
pearance when they arrived here. Most
OF them were haggard and lean and
scarcely able to travel, while the
horses resembled skeletons.
During the march the battery lost
one man, Private Arthur Hall. He
died at Austin in the hospital from

encountered on the march.
