confirmed by proof or ~dispelled BY a
competent showing. The Standard
Oil company insists that prices are
governed by the law OF supply and
demand: that the consumption OF gas
|oline has Increased many fold while
the production OF crude oil has In
creased only 30 per cent in the past
i've years. On the other hand an in
dependent oil company testified that
prices in its territory were fixed by
Standard Oil and it was left without
option. There has been no adequate
explanation of the wide variation Of
prices in different localities.
It is not unlikely that the big re.
finers contro, the situation through
their ability to manipulate the pro-
|duction and price OF crude oil. They
can bear down the price of oil to q
point where production is unproat-
able and then employ the state Of
the Oil market to boost the cost Of
gasoline. Within the week the price
of barrel oil advanced. This may
stimulate the production of petroleum
to a point where the supply may
bring about a gasoline reduction next
spring. This. however. is entirely
speculative.
The point to be determined Is
whether the gasoline price is the re-
suit of the operation Of natural laws
of supply and demand or whether It
results from high-handed measures
by the refining trust. Unremitting
public agitation OF the subject will
accomplish its purpose. The consun-
er of gasoline will find out whether

PREVIOUS EXTRA SESSION
HELD IN YANkToN, IN 1877

A deliver in history has ascertained
that an extraordinary session of the
Dakota legislature was held in 1871
for the purpose Of authorizing Yank-
ton county to issue 100000 in bonds
in aid of the Dakota Southern rail
road, now a link in the Milwaukee
system.
The bonds were issued and they.
drew ten per cent interest. A citi-
zen of Yankton resisted the issue in
the courts until the debt of the
county had increased to 100000, and
then the government of Yankton
county disappeared and for years it
remained in hiding.
In the meantime the notorious
Ordway came upon the scene as gov
ernor of the territory and he attempt
led to use the bond incident to pre-
vent the admission to statehood of
the two Dakotas. He did not succeed
at all, for the bonds were reissued at
a lower rate of interest and for
100000 and interest and principal
were promptly paid.
1t was a combination OF circum-
stances that made the transaction
appear like reputation and Ordway
used it for all there was in it. In
reality the people OF Yankton county
were sparring for time in which to
refund the loan at a living inter
lest rate. Accomplishing their object
they reassumad the obligation and
lordway's thunder vanished into thin
air.-Dakota Huronite.

CHILDREN WE WORRY ABOUT

Close confinement in school during the past winter, overstudy perhaps, an attack of the grip or tonsilitis, some one of these things is doubtless respon- sible for the condition of the child who shows a decline in health now.
 What are the symptoms? Pallor and ianguor, a fickle appetite, dark rings under the eyes, bronchial colds. Very often the best efforts of the family physician fail in such cases and the condition of the child causes the most intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil, so often prescribed, generally fails because the weak stomach is unable to digest fats
 Try this treatment. Before break fast each morning give the child the juice of half an orange. After the noon meal give one of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. Keep this up for a few days and then give one of the pills after the evening meal also. Weigh the child before beginning the treatment and again after two weeks. An increase in weight of from two to five pounds will show you that you are on the right track at last. Care is necessary in the diet of the patient and it will be we'll to send to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y, for a diet book and the pamphlet, Building Up the Blood" Both are free. Your own druggist sells Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

Many nations of the world, at some period, swhehr the blossoms are sweetest and Rraost favorable, decorate the graves fof their dead heroes, but there is only Fcne country which has national Memorial Day, and the Star Spangled Banner is that country's emblem.
