D. Chamberlain, general counsel for the National Petroleum association, an organization supposed to include most of the independent refiners. He says that the inde- pendents now have more unrestricted opportunity to carry on their business, without unfair and oppressive competition We're glad that the independents feel better. We're glad that the supreme court was able to say something that made somebody feel good. But there are about ninety millions of us who are pay ing more for oil than before.

A CALIFORNIA wife testifies that her husband most exemplary, as he never left her of an evening without accounting in advance for his absence. Huh! Most hus- bands are as exemplary as that, It’s the accounting they give on getting back home that raises Ned. REMEMBER this, that the slanderbund knew that if there existed the best possible grounds, a big, strong, sturdy man would not attack a woman. So, even though it was Hodge, and not his wife, who secured the divorce and the custody of the children, the slanderbund knew that Hodge is too much aman to attack the mother of his children. was HIS opponents attacked the late John H. McGraw as morally unfit to be governor of this state when he was a candidate in 1892, and he was elected. They attacked Grover Cleveland's moral character most infamously. History re- peats itseli—whenever the gang feels itself losing its grip, it loses its last shred of decency in the kind of attack it makes.
