KANSAS REFINERS APPEAL
~ FOR FAIR PLAY

Chanute, Kan, Jan. 24.-The indie
pendent Oil re6ners of Kansas have
mailed to James r. Garfield, COM
missioner of corporations of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, an
appeal for justice against the con-
spiracy between the Standard Oil COM
pany and the railroads to shut Kansas
oil out of the market. T.
The ref1ners who sign the appeal
are Clifford Thorne, A. F. Robertson,
F. S. Bennett, C. D. Webster, j. M.
Cameron, H. Kaessmann, D. o. MCGEE
and C. e. Martin. These men own
eight refneries now in operation, be
sides two in course of erection al
Atchison and Kansas City, Kan. They
have invested more than $1,000,000 in
refneries, tank cars, storage tanks
wagons and barrels. -
They claim that by reason of a con
spiracy between the Standard Oil com
pany and the railroad systems of the
Southwest, particularly those rail.
roads operating in@.>ansas, Missouri
Nebraska, Arkansas and Iowa and the
territories Of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory, they are limited to the state

Kansas the freight rates on all the
products of crude petroleum are I'm.
reasonably high and have been main
tanned at such unreasonably high rate
for the express purpose and for no
other purpose than to confine business
of the Independent refiners to the

PACKERS SEEK COVER
BEHIND ROOSEVELT LETTER

Chicago, Jan. 24.-Attorney William
J. Hynes for the defendants, in his
opening statement before the jury
hearing the immunity pleas of the
beef packers, read an excerpt from a
letter written by President Roosevelt
to Attorney General Moody in the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa. Fe re-
bate case, which was part of the
communications between the two men
called for by congress some time ago.
This letter is taken by the packers
as an admission by the president that
the department of commerce and Ia
Dor and the department of justice
worked together to indict the pack
ers, supporting the contention of the
packers upon which they rely for i'm
munity." -
The defendant packers will en-
deavor to inject the letter in the shape
of evidence as If the president was
present and testified concerning it.
The letter was written by the presi.
dent on June II, 1905, at the time the
federal grand jury was sitting in Chi
cago in the beef inquiry That part of
the letter read by Attorney Hynes
and whick will be introduced by the
defendants if possible as evidence
from President Roosevelt follows: /.

Of justice, with the assistance of the

In Justice to "Henry" Hudson.
From Harper's Weekly.

FROM Harper's weekly.
OF all the explorers whose regulations
are connected with the early discoveries
of America, Henry Hudson occupies a
class by himself. Singular as 1t may seem,
no authentic likeness of Hudson Is In ex-
istence, and more remarkable still Is the
scarcity of material concerning his life.
The average individual habitually associ-
ates him with Holland, and accordingly
dresses him in Dutch nomenclature. The
blazing fact that Hudson was an English
man is not only ignored or overlooked, but
is often complacently repudiated by per-
sons who ought to know better Hen
dryck" sounds prettier; 1t Is romantic and
suggests the bikes, the picturesque wind
mills. the reposeful streams and the Vile
boats of Holland. Artists invariably pre-
fer this longer and variegated cognomen
to the more simple word Henry.
Documents at The Hague bear ample
evidence of the clumsy Dutch scrivener's
hand in dealing with this unstable Hol-
land pronunciation. 'Heyndrick Hoitsen,
schipper of the yacht Halve Maen," ap-
pears on one page. and Halve Name on
another. In the second and third edi-
lions of the memorable Hudson tract.
which were published at Amsterdam in
Latin after the explorers death, he Is
termed M Henrico Rudsono, Anglo"
Always Anglo. even in Holland. But in
America, on the face of whose history he
has left an everlasting imprint, truth and
sincerity flutter away before poetical IL
cense. and the romantic and plain, simple,
commonplace Henry" Is eradicated by
Hendrix" or "Hendryck' or "Hendrick"
or "Hendryk," the highest authorities be-
ing unable to agree upon the form Of SPELL
ing.
The spirit Of iconoclasm, which devotes
misdirected energy to the mutilation of
facts. names and dates, often succeeds
by sheer and wanton audacity. In the
case of Hudson it rides rough-shod over
the contract which he made and signed as
Henry Hgdson," which specifically des-
ignates hi snationality as "Englishman''-
contract which led to the discovery of
the river which bears his name, and which
was In force and binding when that men,
orable event took place.

On the Folly of Getting Drowned.


Reports from various parts of the coun-
try last Friday morning chronicled the
deaths of thirteen persons by drowning.
Since then a number of additional deaths
from the same cause have been reported
from points lakes or rivers. In the
majority of instances the victims lost their
lives while boating or bathing or wading
in the effort to secure relief from the sum-
mer heat. The record of mortality for the
season thus far has been high.
Most of the deaths reported are trace
able to one of two causes. They were due
ether to a lack of knowledge of the art Or
swimming or to the recklessness or In
sufficient strength Of persons who, know
ing how to swim, took unnecessary risks
and put a needless tax on their powers.
In view of the large annual sacrifice or
life in this way 1t is deplcrab!e that peo-
pie, and especially residents of river ana
lake towns, do not more generally recog-
nize the fact that swimming, SO far from
being a mere accomplishment should be
considered a necessary part of the educa-
ton of every physically capable boy or
girl Even a little ability in that direction
Is important since it may mean confidence
and self-poSsession at a critical moment.
For those who have fondness for aquatic
sports thorough mastery of the art ana
of the various expedients of saving ones
strength and remaining afoat when eN-
hausted is Indispensable.
For peculiar reasons Chicago suffers espe-
clally in the matter of drowning casualties.
Many of its residents come from inland
towns and are novices in any form or
aquatic sport. Tempted by the heat to go
boating or bathing, they discover too late
that these pursuits are safe only when one
has had especial training for them. In
city like Chicago man or boy who cannot
swim should be the exception rather than
the rule, not only for his own safety, but
that he may be able to give protection to
others. Women and girls also should learn
to swim. A little attention given to this
pleasant exercise will AFFORD invaluable In
eurapce against drowning

A Tough-Lined Stomach.
From the New York Press.

If you find man who can smoke inces-

for him you are almost sure to run across
an early tea drinker. / discussed this with
a well-known physician. who agreed that
the weight Of proof was on the side Of the

NJ D.. that tea when taken early in life
and regularly thereafter does bui,6 a strong
stomach on a man. Such a person can
smoke more and drink more and rarely has
a headache. The heart action is good, as
rule. But to begin tea drinking after twen-
ty-one Is harmful when continued to- any
extent. A man of thirty who begins to
smoke hurts himself with three cigars a
day. If he began at twenty-four or five
cigars would not be so harmful. Tea acts
the same way. The person accustomed TO
