STANDARD CUTS PRICES.
Makes Inducements to EmpOria Auto
Owners on Gasoline.

Emporia, Sept. ia good many
of the grocers are objecting because
the Standard Oil company has written
circular letters to the owners of au-
tomobiles offering to sell them gaso-
line from the company's wagons at
13 cents a gallon. This is the price the
merchants pay for it, and the mer-
chants will be deprived of their Iegiti-
mate custom from just so many of the
motorists as accept the Standards Of
fer. The retail price of gasoline is IS
cents gallon, and to the man whose
Speedometer runs into ciphers during
the year the saving would be an appre-
ciable one However, many local mo-
florists have not accepted the STAN
dard's proposition and are buying
from the grocery stores. The only
way to explain the Standards move is
that it is afraid the motorists will use
Independent gasoline in their ma
chimes for those who have tried the
Independent companys product say
it is much superior.
