do not pay the freight. so it is a mat
ter only between my patrons and the
railroad companies. The United States
department of agriculture, in its re-
ports, claimed that the Beaumont crude
oil was a better dip than the Kansas
crude oil because it contained more
lime and sulphur. BY a process, 1 de-
vised a way to add to the Kansas crude
oil a larger amount of lime and sulphur
than the Beaumont oil carries, thereby
making it better than the Beaumont
crude oil. This rate matter was who'll
ly between the Santa Fe railroad and
myself or my employees, and to my
knowledge the matter was never dis
cussed in any other place. or with any
other person until you and your Santa
Fe affiliations brought it into the press.
So again 1 say the person that is re-
SponSible for this matter made false
statement and knew it when he made
it.
Il suppose your reporter that came to
me and represented that he was from
my district and asked me to place him
on the payroll of the senate (Which 1
refused to do) is sore because l did
not comply with his request, and per-
haps he wrote this comment.
Nov, in conclusion wish to again
say that the person that made the
statement that had a secretary on the
payroll of the senate, and the person
that said that 1 was compelled to adj
NIT before the senate that I had ship
ped dip as crude oil, made false state
ments and knew they We're false when
he made them.
&C. A. STANNARD."
The State Journal has no desire to
misrepresent Mr.. Stannard nOtwith-
standing his insinuations. The records
do not show that he had a personal
clerk while in the senate as the law
provides and the State Journal hereby
acknowledges it's mistake and takes
Mr.. Stannard at his word. So far as
the crude oil stock dip matter is con-
cerned Mr.. Stannard is mistaken be-
cause the matter did come up on the
floor of the senate by an Interrogation
while he was speaking Perhaps Mr..
Stannard was right in his contention
that he should have paid only the
matter that is between himself and
the Santa Fe railroad. The State
Journal has nothing to do with the
controversy but it was sent under the
crude oil rate schedule and now it is
sent as dip" So far as who pays
the freight is concerned, it is not ma
terial because whoever buys would add
the freight to the original cost in con-
sidering the price as he always does.
Mr.. Stannard has nothing to say about
why he ignored the big "press agent
gratis and devoted himself to an at
tack on the reporters. He should adj
nit that he was wrong when he said
that the men employed devoted them
selves to exploiting any particular man
or that the socalled stand pat fac
ton of the senate prof1ted by the fact
that reporters held clerkships. Mr..
Stannard should be as careful about
disappearing others as he is that
he himself shall not be misrepresented.
So far as the charge that a reporter of
this paper asked Senator Stannard for
a position he is evidently mistaken or
suffering from a loss of memory.

three weeks and are already making
preparations for the annual reception

their assessment be divided by two or

all of the property owners succeed in
their efforts, but it seldom has a ten
