whether the state lines up for Cox or
Harding.
Ex-Gov. Frank P. Willis has been
chosen in the senatorial primaries as
the republican candidate.
His democratic opponent is W. A..
Julian.
Republicans believe they have an ex-
cellent chance of re-electing Senator
Selden p. Spencer of Missouri, where
the democrats are divided through Sen
ator Reeds opposition to President wa
son and his policies.
In Kentucky, another state normally
democratic, the republicans have hopes
OF defeating Senator j. C. W. Beckham,
democrat.
The republican candidate is Col. Era
est who is regarded as strong.
While Oregon is normally a republic
can state, it has twice elected George f..
Chamberlain, democrat, to the senate.
This year Senator Chamberlain is can
didate to succeed himself, but is ex-
pected to have a contest, although his
popularity with republicans is believed
a powerful factor in his favor.
Republican hopes are strong in Ne
vsda, where their is n spirited contest
over the selection of a democratic can
didate to succeed Senator Charles b.
Henderson, democrat.
one of Senator Henderson's opponents
is Raymond T. Baker, director of the
United States mint.
The republicans intend to make a spir-
tied campaign in Maryland, where Sen
ator John Walter Smith, democrat, is a

by the republican nominee, Gov. Nor

the outcome of elections in states which

CONTEST SHARP
One of the sharpest contests will he
in Indiana, where Senator James e.
Watson, republican, will~-be opposed by
former Senator Thomas Taggart, demo.
crat, whom he defeated for reelection
in 1916.
A confident feeling has prevailea
among democratic campaign managers
that Taggart would defeat Watson
Reed Smoot of Utah, who, like SEN
ator Watson, is classed as a member
of the Old Guard, is having trouble.
Senator Smoot is one Of the Apostles
Of the Church Of the Latter Day Saints.
Up to a few years ago the support of
the Mormon church was given TO repub-
lican candidates for national offices, but

ton for president.

Thompson, mayor of Chicago. and the
republican boss of Cook county, and the
latter has espoused the cause of Repre-

former Representative -Chipperield.
Senator Irvine L. Lenroot Of Wiscon-
sin has broken with his colleague. Robert
NJ. LaFollet:e, and the latter has put

What" asked customer recently,
has caused the sharp advance in the
price of gasoline?" And our answer
was substantially as follows:
The advances IN the selling price of
January 1st, were due primarily to the
increased cost of crude oil. The
market on all grades of crude took an
upward trend during the latter part
of 1919, and has been climbing steadily
since that time.
During 1919 gasoline prices remained
stationary. the refinerS absorbing the
increased cost of crude as long as it was
possible to do so. InJanuary, 1920, gaSo-
line prices generally were advanced to
meet the increasing cost ofraw material.
Another factor was the practical ex-
haustion of gasoline reserves brought
about by the unprecedented demands
for this fuel During the first months
of this year the consumption of gaSo-
line greatly exceeded production.
But the primary reason was the con-
Stantly increasing price of crude oil.
Still other reasons for the mounting
prices are the greatly increased cost of
labor, of steel, and of other items used
In manufacture; also the constantly
advancing cost of marketing and dis
tribution. Everything that goes into
the refining of petroleum is very
expensive today.
But the primary and controlling
reason is found in the increasing cost
of crude.
In keeping with its well-known policy,
the Standard Oil Company Indiana)
has been able to maintain low prices for
gasoline in the face of advancing prices
for crude oil because of its large scale
operation in refining. and its complete
and economical system of distribution
And, also, because of it's advanced
facilities for obtaining a maximum
quantity of gasoline from a given
quantity of crude.
The Middle West depends largely upon
gasoline power for producing food stufS.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana)
is straining every fiber of its highly
specialized organization to meet this
demand.
