liberately invented and circulated In
wall street would cause Won Born
storff to turn green with envy. The
value of sound, honest, we'll paying
stocks has been brutally and premedi
lately destroyed. Bonds have been
torpedoed without mercy Even United
States Liberty bonds have gone below
par In the savage assaults of these
raiders
AN inkling of the double dealing
Of the Wall street crowd IN shown in
the report they have circulated to tho
effect that the Interstate Commerce
crease OF freight rates to the eastern
roads Having stabbed these railroad
securities and sunk millions OF their
values, the raiders now hope they
have frightened the government into
granting fat increases. The specula-
tors would buy back the deprecated
railroad stocks and make rich profits.
Tho government has lost hundreds
Of millions OF dollars In the last few
weeks as result of the double-cross
methods OF the wall Street patriots" "
and bears. The authorities have far
less contempt for the bcars-the out
and out raiders. than for the sancti-
monious hypocrites who have come to
Washington posing as patriots while
secretly standing in with the wreck
ers"
These men, according to Mr. Can
non, find II impossible to resist the
temptation to obtain revenge for the
tax legislation and at the same time
rake In a few millions from the public
by depreciating standard securities
and then buying them in. Then the
public so robbed found it impossible
to buy Liberty bonds as freely as IL
would like To do. Thus, according TO
government experts who know the sit
uation. the pockets of Wall Street con
spirators are now lined with millions
that ought to he In the United States
treasury in exchange for Liberty
bonds.

4 Quick Decision

II, the federal court for the western
district Of oklahoma with three lcd
cval Judges presiding the Duluth q
Oklahoma oil co. won ITS contention
yesterday to-wit. That tho corpora
tlou commission has no authority 20
shut in oil wells on account of gas
coming from the same sand. While
refusing an injunction against the cor
Doration commit ssiun the court held
that the oil man has n perfect rlghl
10 produce oil whether gas comes from
the same sand or not, but denied II
permanent injunction simply because
the court could not determine whether
gas came from the oil sand or from
below a break.
The court further held that the Du-
lutn n oklahoma has a perfect right
TO make contract with an absorption
plant and thereby use the gas coming
rom the well for the manufacture OF
gasoline.
The case originated from the Black
wen field where the Duluth IL Okla
homa company, IA Milliken concern,
hes a well making 200 barrels of oil
and some gas and which the state
had been operating for some time In
an ondeaVor to shut in tile oil and
save the gas. The Milliken people are
operating n refinery at Arkansas city
and necd the oil for the manufacture
of gasoline now so greatly In demand
Tor war purposes
Messrs. Rice 4 Lyons Of Tulsa had
the cf Sc for the Duluth * Oklahoma
and are entitled to much credit for
making the splendid fight for the
rights of the oil men.
Tie decision will do much to clarity
the situation and from henceforth
there will doubtless be less assump'
ton of authority on the part of the
corporation commission, which Will
doubtless take more sensible view,
to-Wit: that the farmer and the oil
operator have n right to take from the
ground the more valuable product,
even tho some gas Is wasted. In this
case 40 gas is allowed to go to waste
but Is utilized rs most valuable prod
uCt in the making of gasoline.
The consensus OF opinion among the
oil men has always been that the oil
might be taken from the ground at
the expense of some gas and in this
opinion they seem to be entirely up
held ny the court
The public at large have rights that
must not be overlooked In the matter
of the conservation of Eas, but there
is no right or justice I'm the claim
made by some gas men that the pub
lie has greater right than the farmer
or the man who has "A lease for oil.

ROasts the Spectators

Ryley Grannon, celebrated editorial
writer of the Washington Post. in a
recent issue of that journal, bitterly
arraigns those whom he terms the
Dr. Jekyls and Mr. Hydes of wall

as patRots who endeavor to circum-
vent the rascality of the bears at

rified while they are all the time in
complete accord with them and shar-
