STANDARD OIL BRAND
Tillman Says 1t Is on the Forehead OF
Certain Statesmen.

Washington June 26.-When Till
man reported the result Of the confer
ence OH the railway rate bill he said
he could not agree to the amendment
exception Of pipe lines from the pro-
vision prohibiting common carriers
from carrying their own products. He
said that on this the Standard Oil had
gotten in it's work. SO firmly was he
convinced Of the fundamentally of the
Standard company in securing this
change that in his estimation every
senator who votes for the conference
report would have IS. O." branded on
his forehead. He did not mean to vote
for it. because he did not want any
body saying You've got S. o. brand
ed on your forehead. Ben Tillman." He
+ considered the independent companies
whose interests are supposed to be in
yolved to be myths.
Foraker contended that there was
i no proper analogy between a railroad
+ and a pipe line. As rule, he said.
pipe lines are not built with the pur-
i pose of doing a carrying business for
/ hire. which is not the case with the
i railroads. He believed that to retain
i the commodity provision as it passed
/ the house would be to confiscate the
+ property. and that therefore il would
not have been sustained by the courts.
i The Ohio senator called attention to
the fact that carriers by water are not
regulated by the bill, which he said,
does away with the argument that the
bill should De made applicable to all
modes of transportation.

Declares There Is a Combine.
In support of his contentious he said
that testimony taken by the commits

Read Letters In Proof.
As going to confirm his inference Of
a combination LaFollette said that the
head of the Armour Elevator company
is large stakeholder and a director
of the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.

show that the railroad companies IA

Monopoly of the Grain Business.
He declared in conclusion that prac-
tically all the grain shipped into Chi
cago over any one line goes to one
dealer and expressed the opinion that
these wholesale dealers are closely al
lied among themselves thus constitute
ing a virtual monopoly of the entire
grain business of the country. Nelson
confirmed the statements of LaFollette
saying that he had personal knowledge
of many instances of determinations
by the railroads in favor of line ele
yators. The resolution was adopted.

To the Editor: The following re.
view of st Nicholas is interesting in
that it was written by an eleven-year-
old girl, Katharine Candy Balderston,
of Boise, Idaho, for the Boise States
man. Her ''copy" was printed with
only two slight changes, the replacing
Of a semicolOn by comma, and the
substitution of the indefinite for the
definite article:
Nicholas is just as interesting as all
the numbers that have gone before it.
One of the things that make the St
Nicholas so popular is because it al
ways has funny pictures and verses in
it for little children; stories, puzzles,
leagues and other things for older boys
and girls, and articles that grown-ups
could enjoy like ''The Boys Life Of
Lincoln" The serials running now
are 1.-THE Crimson Sweater" a story
for both girls and boys;" "F'rom Sioux
to Susan,"a story for girls, and "Pink-
ey Perkins," for boys. One of the
most interesting stories in this num-
Der is (Which Won?" a story of con-
test for the championship in golf be-
tween the two best players of a girls
school. Janet Martens, who won the
championship, discovered about
Christmas time that her caddie had

Immediately gave the prize to Mary
Taylor, her rival. The ''Great Y and
the Crockery o" is the story of little
boy who ran away from home in the
city of GAINESVILLE, where the Musk
ingum and the Licking join. He saw
the glass blowers, the pottery makers
and many other interesting things.
There are great many good stories in
haven't room to tell about. I've never
heard Of anybody who didn't love the
St Nicholas and look forward to it
every month.
Won't you let your young daughter,
