The Unionist Graphic In a temperate article, says: "It can not be doubted that the country was not prepared lor such a revolution.

In Its fiscal Jpollcy and declined to grasp the subtle' distinction be tween free trade and protection as 11 lustrated by Mr. Balfohr's half way house." .1 The Standard In an editorial thinks that the fear of American reprisals on Its staple Industry in the event of the adop tion or fiscal rerorm largely influenced the action of the Manchester voters. Black Day for The Dally Telegraph says: "The combined forces of radicalism, separatism, socialism and secularism wrought a black day for the Unionists." The Liberal or gans naturally are jubilant.

Johnsoa C. Appallee brief, INSPECTION OF OIL IS A FARCE III ILLINOIS FORMER EMPLOYE OF STANDARD EXPOSES INSPECTORS. TRUST'S METHODS IN INDIANA CHICAGO, January 15 "Inspection of Standard Oil, as conducted In the past, regardless of the provisions of the strict Illinois law, has been a farce. I do not believe the law is more carefully observed now. Inspectors, in a majority of instances, simply call at the offices of the company and receive payment for services they never have performed.

These ac commodating; inspectors leave tneir stencils at the Standard Oil warehouses, so that emnlovea of the comnanv can brand the barrels as they are Inclined and at their convenience. This amaxing declaration was made yesterday by Maywood Maxom, for twenty nine years a trusted employe of the Standard Oil Company, and lately in charge of the branch office at Decatur, 111., says the Tribune. He has furnished Commissioner James Garfield, of the Federal Bureau of Corporations, valuable information of the secret working of the trust, and Is preparing" now to start proceedings in the courts for the ouster of the Standard company's four subsidiary organizations from Illinois for violations of the anti trust act. which are punishable by forfeiture of charter. i More cf Business Methods.

1 have described." said he, "glvlm other details of the Standard's methods. how the Standard would organise fake Independent companies, bribe drivers, conduct false fire tests of oils, and frame op boycotts among labor men in an effort to drive out independent competitors. Officers of the company also devote their energies to prevent competitors from ob taining a footing in any town. "In every villag there Is always one merchant who is the keystone In the oil business. He has the most of the trade.

Even If the other dealers desire to com i bine and.Durchase a carload of Independ 1 ent oil they can not do it without him. for they do not deal in oil In sufficient Quan tity. "Unless the other dealers can get this man to come in there is no use of their trying to get a carload of Independent oiL So the Standard fixes' the. large dealer with rebates of a cent a gallon. Of course, under this arrangement there is no Inducement for him to purchase 'outside' oil.

"Neverthejess the Independent dealer starting in any town usually has the sympathy of the local merchants and consumers. To kill him off it Is the frequent practice of the Standard to furnish to another dealer all the oil he can sell with the understanding that he is not to charge consumers more than 5 cents a gallon. "In addition the Standard advertises his business on an extensive Bcale, paying all bills. He is allowed 1 cent a gallon on all that he sells. It doesn't take long by persistent effort to wear out the average competitor and as soon as he Is rone of course the price of oil Is sent up higher man ever." Letter Instructs In a letter furnished to the Government by Charles Kercher, then to charge of the Hammond OH CorHpany.

at Terra Haute, E. B. Stanley, general man peer of the Standard Oil Company of Kentucky, wrote: You realise how important It Is to have your drivers make a thorough and persistent house to house canvass among the crcon nall A O'fchea trade and follow It up with an explanation aa to the cars of lamps, etc. with a burning test where necessary. Do not allow the drivers to relax their efforts, and keep a close record of each day's work.

and encourage them to increase their daily sales. This communication has the postscript that so often appears, "better destroy this," From the same official, a letter dated November 6. im. indicates that the Standard recognized the sentiment that existed against it. The communication says in parti 'expect' about the middle of the week some new advertising matter appertalninr to rennea 011.

1 wouia use to ask you ajraln If you do not think that the fact of this advertising master 'having Standard Oil Company name on It would not Interfere with sales Then follows a sharp injunction to look after O'Connell Shea's work in the country. Peddlers Forced Out of Business. It was the Standard's and still is, according to Mr. Maxpn and Mr. Kercher, to force the small peddlers out of business by offering them the lowest wages they will take and afterward discharging them.

A letter from Mr. Collings, dated May 29, 18U2. to Mr, Kercher. says: Mr. Wilson.

A few days ago it again began producing gas. At, first the pressure registered fifteen pounds. A few days later it had increased to forty six pounds, and last Saturday it tested seventy five pounds.

Many abandoned wells in this and ad joining counties are showing similar In crease.
