CHICAGO, Ill-Winding back and
forth in an iron network concealed
beneath the oil fields of the United
States a gigantic labyrinth Of pipe
lines $4,000 miles long daily is doing
work that would require 20O,OOO OIL
tank cars and 5000 locomotives fully
one month to handle, according to es-
Inmates OF pipe line transportation eX-
perts.
Practically every barrel of oil taken
from the nations 258,60 active wells
today is shot through these pipe lines,
and in this way reaches the oil retln-
cries and subsequently the oil markets,
weeks and sometimes months sooner
than if shipped by railroads.
The rapid movement through the
pipes as compared with rail transpor-
tation is due to the fact that the flow
through the underground system is not
stopped at any point until it reaches
its destination in the rehners' tanks,
whereas the tank car, attached to the
freight train, must wait for block sig
nails, must change crews at division
points and finally, at its destination,
must await its turn in the assembling

Consequently the oil pipe lines sys-

be regarded as essential to the ever
increasing rate of oil production as the

Started in 1861.
The history of pipe line transporta-
ton goes back to civil war days and
has its setting in the pioneer oil fields
of Pennsylvania when production be-
gan to outstrip transportation taclll-
ties
This gave birth to the first pipe line
system In 1861 Herman James, OF
Erie, Pa, conceived a four-inch wood
en- pipe line from the Tarr farm to
Oil City, Pa, but never carried it out
Then, in 1862, a bill to aid pipe line
construction was introduced in the
Pennsylvania legislature, but it was
beaten by a transfers lobby.
In 1862 J. L. Hutchings, a New
Jersey operator, constructed a two
inch line from the Tarr farm to Hum
bolt, Pa. But the teamsters destroyed
the line tearing up huge strips of it.
He tried again in 1868, but again the
line was destroyed.
But in 1865, with the aid OF state
police, Henry Harley successfully re-
sisted he teamsters and operated the

ABOLISH OFFICERS
FEES, SAYS HARDWICK
KEEP SYSTEM BUT LET COUN-
TIES HAVE REVENUE, DE-
CLARES GOVERNOR-ELECT.

Governor-elect Hardwick will favor
abolition of the fee system for county
officers if a fair and business-like plan
is worked out for determining their
compensation on a salary basis, it was
stated by him Friday in discussing the
matter.
THE enforcement of justice most
certainly ought not to be commercial
led" said Mr.. Hardwick, in reference
to the fees of solicitors general, court
solicitors and county officials.
In this connection, however, he
pointed out that the question whether
officials shall be paid by fees or by
salaries already rests in the hands of
the people through their representa-
tives in the legislature. The counties
composing any judicial circuit can
have their representatives pass an act
abolishing the fees of the solicitor gen
eral of that circuit and placing him on
a salary prorated among the counties.
Regarding the fees OF county ad-
ministrative officers, Mr.. Hardwick
pointed out that salary which would
be adequate in one county would not
be adequate in another county, and
vice versa Hence, any bill to abolish
the fees of administrative officers, in
his opinion, should be framed in such
a way as to give the local boards OF
county commissioners, or the local
grand juries, or some other local au-
thority, the necessary leeway to fix the
salaries of the officers now paid by
fees.
AS to abolishing fees, he indicated
that he would not favor that, but
would favor a continuance of the fees,
provided they went into the general
county treasures instead of into the
pockets of fee-paid officers.

STOP CATARRH! OPEN
N0STRILS AND HEAD
Says Cream Applied in Nostrils
Relieves Head Colds at Once.

If your nostrils are clogged and your
head is stuffed and you can't breathe
freely because of cold or catarrh, just
get a small bottle of Ely's Cream Balm
at any drug store. Apply a little of
this fragrant, antiseptic cream into
your nostrils and let it penetrate
through every air passage of your head,
soothing and healing the infiamed, swol-
len mucous membrane and you get in
slant relief.
All! how good it feels Your nos
trils are open, your head is clear, no
more hawking, snufaing, blowing; no
more headache, dryness or struggling
for breath. EIy's Cream Balm is just
what sufferers from head colds and ca
tarrh need. It's q delight.

DISCUSSES
SURCHARGE AT CLUB

J.. B. Wineman, in a paper given
last night before the Community club,
declared that the Red River Power
company. is not justified in levyinE a
.surcharge upon its patrons who use
electricity. q and steam,s because
such surcharse is uncalled for. To
support his argument, Mr.. Wineman
quoted figures. and statements sub
mitted by several power companies
from northwestern. cities. .,.,.
BY way Of remedying the situation
az 1t. now exists, Mr.. wineman en-
.phas:zed the importance of having a
dam constructed across the Red River
Of the North, and with this done he
said power could be generated at a
low cost. He concluded by saying that
public ownership Of public service cor
porations is the solution OF the prob
lem.
An interesting feature of the meet
ing was the half-hour concert, given
by the. Ladies' orchestra, under the
direction of e. A. Moses. The organ
stzation II one of the newer ones in
the musical life of the city, and al
