Land office Rulings

On the Goth of June the land
department of Washington made
a new ruling regarding the selling
of isolated tracts of land. In the
former times the isolated lands
must have been filed around for
some three years, but according to
the new ruling the lands can now
be placed on sale at the discretion
of the commissioner of lands. Ap-
plication or the sale must be made
to the commissioner of the general
land Office and if granted by the
commissioner, then the sale is ad-
vertised and the sale held. A
tract of land up to as much as 12O
acres would be considered as an
isolated tract and may be asked
for sale.

sCrutinizlng the projects OF tho Stan.

strict adherence to tho laws, II Is
pointed out in this appeal that agents

companies are utilizing these STRIFE
lures upon the operating methods Of

to discredit the product Of the Stand

makes this frank admission:
"And at this time, when tho pc

creased outlet on account of tho

In other words. in foreign coun-
tries, where freight charges arc high
er and the cost Of distribution
heavier. where they are selling
higher grade Of oil AT two-thirds tho
price charged for oil in the American
market. the trust finds it's business
crippled by criticism. There is no
plea 10 be lenient TO 1t on account Of
the American market. The trust Is
too we'll organized here, You must
take its oil or 60 without. You must
pay its price. The trust isn't bother

too easy a proposition. The patheticI
wall comes about the loss OF busi-

meet honest competition and fight
its own battles. Through it's methods

THE STANDARD OIL TRUSTS
PATHETIC APPEAL.

The Standard OIL company, the
eminent philantrophic business or
ganizeation against which something
over six thousand indictments for in
fractions OF the anti-rebate law have
Just been returned, has, like its much
abused and misunderstood fellow
corporation, the beef trust, issued
an appeal to the newspapers and pub
lie to refrain from critlcising Its
methods because such criticism is
hurting It's business abroad. In its
advertising appeals to an unjust and
irritable public and press 1t doesn {
say anything about the fact that it
is selling better oil In the European
markets after paying freight and
other expenses of handling, for eight
cents a gallon than 1t supplies to the
American public for twelve cents a
gallon. A little detail OF that kind
is hardly worth noting. The fact Is
that in Germany, France, Austria
and Europe generally the trust meth
DDS will not be tolerated and, In open
competition, the trust is compelled
to sell the best grade of oil and at a
fair price Even at that the profit is
good.
The address issude to the public
and the press is drafted in more
in sorrow than in anger" tone. 1t
exudes pathos. These Standard Oil
operators. who love to pose as cap
tains OF industry, who are carrying
the flag Of American commerce. over

great glory and honor of the country,

ments are taking cosnizance Of their

for funeral reform. Too many peo-
pie wait until their relatives, friends
and nelshbo"s are dead before tEr-
bring flowers for them. A kind word
for the living is worth more than a
million bouquets on the bier of the
departed. A good word spoken Of,
or an encouraging remark for those
who struggle along LIES rough and
thorny path is worth more than
oceans of tears shed over their life
less remains. Pomp and demonstra-

an insult to the dead. Expend your
charity, your love and friendship on
the living; the dead ned thin not.
