PiTRor.il' Crktri, March 18.
Ma. Ecitor: Now that the Pstrolsum
Produoers' Aseeclallea Is lully ergsnized
and at work, it Is highly Important that it
be sustained by the hearty co-eperatlon of
all classes In the oil regions, lor all are In
terested in Its success. The professional,
mercantile, msaufaoturlng and laboring In
terests, equally with- tbe producers, most
stsnd or fail with tbe Assoelation "A
honse divided against itself cannot stand."
Vigilance committees, instigating personal
violence and overt acU are not needed, and
would indeed be a great? Injury te a good
cause. On Ike contrary, we must aberlsb a
patriotic sentiment thee will Isolate every
agent el tbe So. Imp. Co. tram social rela,
tiens or business transactions, and lei It be
understood, tbe agent once known, can have
no friends nor associates; that no man will
recognize blm even on the streets aor stsy
in a room with him; that no hotel or board
ing bouse will harbor blm; that no one will
sell him anything but a railroad ticket te
take blm away. No parson, thus cut off
from association with his fellows, Ondlng
nothing but silent contempt on every band
will be found so waating In self respect, as
to remain in that anomalous position a mo
ment longer tbaa be can get away.
What is most needed new is concerted
action and feeling. . "In Union there Is
strength." p.
