Friends of Kansas Governor Explain
r55 Incident.

~ Incident.
J Wichita, Kan, May 5.-If Governor
Hoch did try to take a kiss from for
mer Governor Stanley's wife it was his
kiss and he was entitled to it.
This is the story told by the gov
ernors friends, at any rate. These
friends say they have the true account
from both Governor Hoch and former
Governor Stanley and that the way
they heard it is the right way, all re-
ports to the contrary Notwithstanding.
This vas the way it happened:
A year ago in April Mrs. Stanley
had just finished a series of visits to
various charitable institutions. At
Emporia she met Governor Hoch's
daughter. .%a - e
Give papa my love and lots of
kisses" said Miss sHoch as the visitor
was leaving Emporia for the capital.
Mrs. Stanley saw the governor in
due time and told him of her meeting
with his daughter and the latter's mes.
sage. q
Well, aren't you going to deliver
the gocds?' asked Governor Hoch
What the governor did then is not
made plain. It was not until some
time in the winter, however, that the
story of the attempted embrace gained
currency. Ia

ADVANTAGES OBTAINED
BY UNFAIR METHODS.

The Standard claims that the loca-
ton Of its refneries and the use OF
pipe lines are natural advantages to
which it is justly entitled by reason of
the energy and foresight of its man
ayers. While lin measure that is
true it must not be forgotten that
these advantages were in part OBJ.
tanned by means Of unfair competitive
methods after years of fierce strife.
The development Of the pipe line
system by the Standard Oil company
was the result Of special agreements
with railroad companies. Further
more, these so-called natural advan-
tages have been and are being great.
" increased by discrimination in
freight rates, both published and
secret, interstate and state, which give
the Standard monopolistic control in
the greater portion Of the country and
which SO limit competition as to prac-I
tically prevent the extension of the
business OF any independent to point
which even remotely endangers the
supremacy of the Standard.
An immediate result of this de-
limitation of the competitive area is
shown by the prices of ordinary oil
throughout the country. After deduct
ing the freight rate the price Of such
oil is usually from cents to cents q
gallon higher in the non-competitiye
than in the competitive fields. "a rea-
sonable profit upon refined oil is about
one-half q cent per gallon. It is clear
that exorbitant profits are obtained in
the non-compe titiYe Ids. This monop-
Iolistic control extends from the well
of the producer to the doorstep Of the
consumer 81 # ~
