Employment of oil as fuel for the

hearted disapproval of an American
who figures in Sir John Robinson's
"reminiscences. This farseeing per-
son petitioned congress that "a stop
might be put to the irreverent and

citizens in drawing petroleum from

it there for the future destruction

THERE Is a certain class of merchants in this stae-and EIko is

public enterprise, who pay niggrry wages 70 employees and expect more
return than they should. Their earnings do not o to build up or I'M

eve to the community.
These men are in competition with business men who have invested
their very dollar in this community, who have built homes, who sup.
port our churches. u schools, and u state and county governments
These latter have been a big factor in making the state and county what
they undesirable places in which to live. They are vitality interested
in all that makes for public good. They have made this place their per-
manent home, and whenever there is a public enterprise started they get
sense Of t1e term, without whom the town and state would severely sf

TO do the!: shopping, 1t would not be long before the trade of this pirate
class or merchants would be confined exclusive to those who have n o
interest whatever in our community. A person with the welfare of the
community at heart is thoughtless, indeed, when he spends his money with
merchants who Immediately send it away to other states; who keep no
