Standard Oil Company says

ed In Condor

The Times, in its last issue,
gives some facts and figures"
in regard to the question of the
cost of distillate but the state
ment does not contain the fact
that these facts and figures were
compiled at least three years ago
when the city first began buying
distillate from the Condor Elec-
trio Co. They were no doubt en-
tirely correct at that time but it
does not necessarily follow that
they are at the present, in fact
they are not. One, at least, Of
the councilmen whose name ap-
pears at the end of statement in
the Times, has made careful in
quiries on the distillate question
and says that the Globes figures
as given last week are correct.
The question will occur to every
business man: why shouldn't
the price of distillate be much
lower than it was three years
ago, considering the reduction in
the price of oils and freight
lrates?'' The letter from the
standard Oil Co. offering to de-
Iliver distillate in Condor for lie
per gallon is proof enough but
Istill another is the fact that a
certain party in this city. who
understands the proposition thor
oughly, has made the statement
that he will run the pumping
plant without any salary what
ever if the city will contract to
buy their supplies from him at
the price they are now paying.

To the Editor of the Condor

To the Editor of the Condor
Globe:
We have read with interest
the article which appeared in
your last issue signed by Frank
Lewis. We might go forward
and write back an article equal
ing the one he has written, in
every sense of the word, but ow-
ing to the fact that we know
that these articles have been in
spired for the purpose of running
our business and reputation, and
this method has been pursued for
a long time prior to the time that
Mr.. Lewis was engaged in any
controversy with US, we are ig-
noring it.
We wish to say that someone's
wrong in this matter. Frank
| Lewis has either had a deliberate
falsehood told him by N. M. Nc
Daniel in order to avoid the pay
ment of a few filthy dollars, or
someone is trying to use us as a
scapegoat to cover up some dirty
work of their own. In order that
Frank Lewis may look at this
matter in the same light that we
have we are herewith submitting
two letters from A. J. Mcdaniel
lat Portland. If after reading
these Mr.. Lewis sees that he has
been mislead for a purpose, we
then can place the burden upon
those whom it should rest. In
Justice to ourselves and the pub.
Iiic we think the truth should be
ascertained. And if Mr.. Lewis
desires, he can appoint another
Individual to assist him in going
over the correspondence at oul
office in company with two mer
that we appoint, who can make
an impartial report as to theil
finding. The following letters
were written to this company

PAY YOUR TAKES TO

''Where do I pay my taxes?" is a
question asked at the courthouse more
often than any other these days be-
cause the time is fast nearing the end
when a person can get in with his
money without having to pay interest.
The same question is asked by those
who desire to take out poll taxes,
though the latter are not so numerous
and are always men, while many tax
payers who do not know where to leave
their money are women

This office is located on the main
floor of the courthouse in the south
east corner, where the county clerk
formerly received deeds and other pa
pers to be filed.
On this account some folk do not
know where the county collector is. for
they have not visited the courthouse
since the new addition was constructed
and the collector took the old office of
the county clerk.
One officer suggests that the county
collector might employ a professional

of a good strong voice, to stand in the
