Commerce Commis.
sion investigating

Kansas City. Mo-, March l2.-The|
investigation begun here today by the
Interstate Commerce commission In.
10 the combinations and understand.
ings between railroads and coal and
oil companies is regarded az the most
far reaching Undertaking Of Its kind
ever attempted. The present investi-
cation has to do with the rates and
practices Of the railroad carriers en-.
gagged In transporting oil from Kan.
sas and Indian Territory TO interstate
destinations. The investigation lg
based upon q petition Of the Kansas
OIL Producers association. The
petition charges:
That the rates on petroleum and its
products from producing sections In
Kansas and Indian Territory To Mis-
souri,. Iowa and other interstate des.
tinations are unjust and prejudicial.
That producers and shippers other
than the Standard Oil and its affiliat-
ed companies are practically confined
In the marketing Of such traffic to
the state OF Kansas.
That the state established In 1905
a schedule Of rates for the transpor.
tation OF crude oil and the products
thereof, which was operated 10
create markets for the sale OF such
traffic within the state. and that such
rates are far below the grossly exces-
sive rates charged by the railroads
to points In other states. nea the
boundary between them and Kansas.
That the rates upon petroleum ship
ped as interstate traffic from points
In Kansas and Indian Territory oper'
ate to restrict and prevent traffic be
tween numerous points. and show
that the railroads. as the result OF
some understanding between them
and the Standard on company, OF
companies allied with 1t, have beer
fostering a monopoly in the control
OF the oil traffic to the wrongful pre-
JUDGE Of the complainants and othe;
competitors Of the Standard.
That the railroads also discriminate
against the compliments and in fayo.
OF the facilities at various points Of
destination, and In the return Of tank
cars and empty barrels to points Of
production.

Take arapid look at this States
man Bailey" as Phillips paints
him before you read in detail
the Cosmopolitan's complete ar
fragment.
Bailey is held up to the Ameri-
can people (chiehy by himself) az
the peoples incorruptible friend.
With big body, big voice
and an enormous egotism. he talks
platitudes until the trusts ring the
bell then he votes rs they want
him to.
He is the man accused by an
able newspaper correspondent Of
working with Aldrich and selling
out the people in connection with
the railroad rate Legislation.
Mr.. Phillips in his Cosmopoli-
tan article proves what Bailey
really is. proves that the railroads
have made him rich-and that
they and the big men with money
own him.
II was Bailey who worked and
worked successfully to turn the
State of Texas over to the STAN
dari Oil-although the people Of
the state had demanded and en-
acted a splendid law aimed at that
very trust.

corporations gladly handed him

FOOD AND STUDY
A College Mans Experience.

All through my high school course
and first year in college, writes an
ambitious young man, Il struggled
with my studies on diet OF greasy.
pasty foods. being especially fond OF
cakes and fried things. My system
got into state OF general disorder
and it was difficult for me to apply
myself to school work with any de-
gree OF satisfaction. | tried different
medicines and food preparations but
did not seem able to correct the diff
fculty,
Then my attention was called to
Grape-Nuts food and | sampled It l

directions on the package, and in

stored, my weight had increased. I
had clearer head and felt better in
every particular. My work was sim
ply snort to what II was formerly.

DO you know that a majority OF the
not made from the vanilla bean. but is
the product of tar? Do you also know
that there are now between 500 and

markets that are the product of thai

The questions were asked by Gardi
ner c. Crawford, an American, who
has long been engaged in business in

| The German chemists discovered that
product commercially called "vaua-

| one-tenth the cost of the natural va

ural product and there was no compet-
| ing with that.
Mr.. Crawford says that tar Is PROV
