The New School BuildlngS.

The action Of the board Of education
last evening In starting the movement
for new high school building, new
4.room ward building for the west
side and proper sewerage for all the
school buildings Of the city was one
that will meet with hearty commen'
dation from every citizen Of Abilene.
It Is 10 the direction Of progress and
will do more for the Advancement OF
Abilene than any action Of q public
board in long years. No discussion
Of the need OF Abilene's schools is
uecessary; 1t is so patent to every
parent that none can be misled. This
is practical handsome way to meet
1t and We expect to see Abilene
citizens vote unanimously In support
Of the boards resolution.
Nothing adds so much to the high
standing Of town as adequate and
properly constructed school build
ings; nothing makes such good
citizens as good schools. Every
dollar wisely spent on the health an !
education Of the children 10 we'll spent
and Abilene is going to do this work
right.
With new high school building,
q $4,000 Carnegie library building,
a park and other improvements under
way for 1905, the coming year
promises to be remarkably fine one
for the advancement OF Abilene.

COMPETITION SHUT our.
Freight Rates on OIL Between 81.
Louis and Kansas City Give
Standard OIL Monopoly.


st. Louis, Jan. 10.-During an IL
vestigation before the state board c.
railroad and warehouse commissioners
Tuesday Assistant Attorney General
Kennish brought out evidence to thc
effect that the Standard Oil company
is enforcing arbitrary freight rates on
oil between st. Louis and Kansas City.
The testimony showed that a rate
Of 20 cents a hundred pounds is in eff
feet from st. Louis to Kansas City,
while the rate from Kansas City to
St, Louis Is only u cents. It was stat
ed by the witnesses that this disparity
was due to the effort Of the Standard
oil company to prevent St. Louis con-
Germs from competing with 1t in the
western field. - -
Alfred T. Stewart, assistant freight
agent Of the Missouri Pacific, and
Frank B. Fretter, secretary Of the Ma
tional Refining company, we're the
principal witnesses. Stewart admitted
that the high rates acted as bar to
the shipment of petroleum west from
St, Louis. e=.A
Fretter testified: d.
1.-THE Standard OIL company has a
monopoly here. All competition is
shut out and the People of Missouri
are practically to take Standard oil
from Standard refneries. The indie
pendent concerns can't compete be-
cause Of the excessive freight rates"
