VP AGAINST A CONDITION.
IteginninK to Realize that Their
Hpun Theories are not Without Klow-
lioles-Question of a Market Holm I
to Haunt and Dismay Them.
Kansas manifests symptoms whicK
give rise to the hope that convales-
i ence is not far away. Reaction is be-
ginning in the state responsible for
Peffer, Jerry Simpson, Mary Ellen
Lease and Carrie Nation and other
erratic luminaries of greater or lesser
refulgence. The sunflower fellows
who find a panacea for every social
industrial or economic ill in radical
legislation, paradoxical though it
may seem, are cooling down as the
mercury mounts higher and the days
grow warmer. The socialistic enthus-
iasts who early in the year invoked
legislative aid in bolstering up punc-
tured stock-jobbing schemes and pri-
vate grafts are beginning to realize a
thing or two as the dogstar nears its
ascendancy. The Rawlinses, the
Tommy Tuckers, the Santos Dnmont
Smiths, the Conollys and other "pro-
moteere" who have turned from pro-
moting wildcat oil companies to the
promotion of wildeyed oil refineries,
state and corporate, and the gullible
ones led astray by their specious pre-
scriptions for the cure of debililated
Kansas oil stocks, are evincing pre-
monitory symptons of a return to
sanity. They are beginning to "sit
up and take notice." They are begin-
ning to realize at last that as their
independent refineries are emerging
from a state of nebulosity into the
realm.of actuality they -the' "refiners"
themselves- are up against a condi-
tion and not a theory. They are be-
ginning to inquire, "What are we
going to do about a market?"
This question is now being consid-
ered seriously and in the calm light
of reason. It is said work on the
independent refineries of the state is
progressing rapidly. The refinerv at
Paola has already started treating
oil. The Cherryvale refinery is fin-
ished and will begin operations with
a grand celebration on the Fourth.
This is the most complete independent
plant in the state. The Sunflower
refinery at Niotaze will be ready for
operation next week. In connection
with this plant there is an ice factory.
The company is building a fifteen
mile pipe line from the Wavside wells
to the refinery. If this is' not com-
pleted in time for the fires oil will be
transported in tank cars. The refin-
ery at Longton is well under way and
should atart up iu August. Sidings
are now being built. The masonry
has been completed on the Chanute
refinery. September is set for the
first fires in this plant. The Erie re-
finery is drilling wells for gas, and is
meeting with success. It will be some
time before the Erie refinerv is com
pleted, but when it is finished it is
promised that it will be one of the
largest in the state among the inde-
dents. If it takes as much oil as it
says it will, the independent concerns
will consume about 3000 barrels of oil
a day. Since it is claimed the Stand-
ard is supplying all the trade that
part of the country presents, the ques-
tion that is being most frequently
asked is, where are these refineries to

City Engineer Whaley has prepared

cost would be to the individual prop-
erty owners of paying for the improve-
ment direct instead of through the

"It has been a comparatively easy
matter to build: the rub is yet to
come," is the oft-repeated remark
among oil men.
And again, the light of soberness
and reason is beginning to dawn in
Kansas and the thoughtful ones are
pointing out the folly of the state re-
finery scheme which a few hot heads
at the behest of the stockjobbers
foisted on the people. Clvde II.
Knox, editor of the Sedan Star, has
just returned from a visit to Whiting,
Iod., where the largest oil refinery in
ithe world is located and as a result of
/his inspection thereof he draws the
following intelligent deductions.
a "Aj Personal inspection of the
standard Oil company's mammoth
refinery at Whiting, Ind., forces the
conclusion upon everyone who will
visit and examine it, that in appro-
priating only $200,000 for a refinerv,
the great state of Kansas has made
the fatal error of sending a boy to
mill. It matters not whether you
favor the state's undertaking or not.
The time, for argument as to the wis-
dom of the state departing from the
sacred functions of legislative gov-
eminent and embarking in competitive
business has passed. The only ques-
tion now is what can fairlv and
reasonably be expected from the
state's investment which will be made
if the supreme court does not prevent.
It is not beyond the realm of fate that
the state may be a David and th«
#'-00,000 refinery a pebble with which
,'4ie Standard Goliath may be slain
hut the farther and deeper the investi-
gation goes of the Standard's control
of the situation, the unwilling belief
is established that this contest differs
from the one of old, and it must be
admitted that the modern Goliath has
several distinct advantages. What
t0 1x3 is theory; what is. is fact
This story deals with what is."

company,
purposing to run oil to Port Arthur,
Texas, of which so much has been
published of late.
Mr. Bucher, in speaking of the pro-
ject to an Examiner man, stated that
the project was an assured fact: that
everything will be readv by the first
of August to begin the work of build-
ing the pipeline and that work will be
pushed as fast as possible. The deal,
hinged on whether the agents in this 11
field could secure companies with an
aggregate of $10,000 barrels a day
production. This. Mr. Bucher states.
has been accomplished, and more, and
the agents for the company from
Pittsburg are now in Kansas getting
the abstracts and title deeds to the
property, and guagers are at work
guaging the production from the weils
of the companies who have assimilated
themselves with the new concern.
Later, land will be purchased where
large storage tanks will be built to
hold the extra production and to take
care of the output until the pipeline is
constructed. The land for pumping
stations is also to be secured, but this
will be a minor consideration, Mr.
Bucher states.
When asked if any aside from the |
production of those in the company !
will be handled, Mr. Bucher stated
that they were in the market for oil
and would handle an immense amount j
in the Bartlesville field five companies j
have signed the agreement and merged j
with the new concern, viz., the Cudahy
Oil company, Almeda Oil company, I
Asphalt Oil company, McBride &
Bloom and the Sand'Fork Gas and
Petroleum company. The latter con-
cern has entered the deal since the ex-
clusive publication of the real facts in
the matter in the Examiner of June 17.
The company has one lot in the
Osage with a daily production of 200
barrels. J. J. Curl has been in Pitts-
burg, Pa., to take part in the final
negotiations before the work is ac-
tually begun. The company has not
been incorporated as yet but will be
within a short time, and it is not even
certainly known by persons on the
outside what the capitalization will
be, but it will be well up in the mil-
lions of dollars. Mr. Bucher stated
that a considerable amount of the oil |
taken will be from the low grade fields j

stead of the latter, to be selected by
the sanitary committee, said officer to
work in conjunction with the city mar-
shal, was read and passed. The
selection of the man to fill the position
and the salary he is to receive will be
brought before the next session.
Ordinance No. 91, placintr the con-
trol of the cemetery in the hands of
the city recorder, who will look after
the sale of l®ts, was passed. The
covered that an abnormal allowance
of red liquor was arriving in the city.
With axes they proceeded to break in-
to the packages and in all nineteen
quarts of whisky, ranging from rare
old bourbon and rye to "white line,"
was distributed over the platform and
depot grounds. The bottles were
smashed and the aroma that arose
made the premises resemble an ama-
teur distillery. Some of the thirstv
ones stood about with their mouth's
watering, but the case was a hopeless
one. Mr. Kerr has been engaged by
the Santa Fe railway company to ride
all trains coming into this city and
surrounding territory from Kansas
until after the Fourth of July rush to
keep the drunken element in order.
On Wednesday morning a barrel of
beer, containing seventy-five quart
bottles, was found in an express office
in this city and was confiscated by the
officers and destroyed. The officials
state that more than $200 worth of
whisky and beer had been confiscated
this week, much of which, it is sup-
posed, was consigned to Bartlesville
in preparation for a Fourth of Julv
celebration.
SENSATION AT OCHELATA.
Horace ingalls, a Teamster, Die* I'nder
Peculiar Circumstances.
Ochelata was all agog the first of
the week over the sudden death of
Horace Ingalls, a teamster aged fifty-
six years, which occurred last Friday.
The man developed symptoms of a
congestive chill attended by spasms in
the morning and before noon was a
corpse. He received prompt medical
attention, but nothing could be done
for his relief. It was deemed advis-
able to hold an autopsy to determine
the cause of death, as the theory
gained prevalence that Ingalls was a
victim of poison—either accidentally
or otherwise.
On Sunday an autopsy was held on
the body by Doctors Woodring and
Pollard and traces of carbolic acid
were found in the stomach, but there
was no indications of burns in the
throat or on the tongue. Ingalls had
complained of pains in his stomach
for some time and it is said took small
1 )ses of diluted carbolic acid to alle-
viate the suffering, and it is supposed
he took too much, which caused his
death. The physicians assert that the
spasms were in the nature of epileptic
fits, and these might have caused his
death. ( A finding will be made along

Warren Burk, conductor on Santa

killed about three o'cIock Monday
afternoon while attempting to make a
coupling in the yards at Caney. Burk
stepped between two cars', when his
foot slipped off a chunk of coal,
throwing him forward in such a man
ner that his body was crushed between
the bumpers. A physician was called
but life had become extinct almost as
soon as the accident happened. At
noon Mr. Burk had been in Bartles-
ville, where he ate dinner, and in talk-
ing to a friend stated that this had
been a good month for him and he
would have a check for $135 if nothirig
happened. The body of the unfortu-
nate man was taken to Chanute, where
he has a wife and family.

A scene that was very touching and

„ dopoton Saturday night when
Congelation Deputy United States Marshal Henry

twu days prior to his death. Two
children, a grown son, S. A. Ingalls,
11ve9 at Abilene, Kan.- and a daugh-
ter. Mrs. Eva Judy, lives at Kansas
City, Ingalls having come to Ochelata
about a year ago from Abilene. The
woman from whom he was divorced
last week lives in Wichita and did not
appear to defend the action. The
grounds on which the decree was
granted were cruelty and desertion.
It is said she has steadfastly refused
to come to the Territory, preferring to
remain in Kansas. Ingalls was a
member of the Modern Woodmen of
America, in which order he carried mil
insurance policy of $3,000 in favor of
his son. He was a quiet, industrious
man, paid bi6 debts and conducted
himself otherwise as a good, upright
citizen. The interment took nlace
Sunday afternoon at Ramona.
