Truth Crushed to Earth will Rise Again
The Tribune editor evidently
knows very little of what trauspired
at the "coincidental" feathering of
the new Standing Committee recent
ly. He publishes a notice ' at the
head of his column calling the stand
ing committee together. To this no
tice he attaches the name of F. H.
Smith. Tern. Chairman and W. H.
Grimm. Tern. Sec.
Mr. Qrimm, the temporary secre
tary, has on his note book the pro
ceedings of that meeting in which it
states that J. H. Rhoads made a mo
tion to request Chairman &impsell
to call the new Standing Committee
together for organization Mar. 13th,
The motion was seconded by W. D.
Qift and carried unanimously. In
accordance with this action Tempo
rary Chairman Smith and Tempo
rary Secretary Grimm requested the
Post to publish the call and attach
Chairman Sainpsell'tt name as the
chairman had given them such in
structions. Mr. Grimm gave the
Courier the same instructions and
they were obeyed. How it happen
ed that the Herald aud the Tribune
received different instructions, we
can not conceive. It is a small mat
ter to quibble over, but tliero is no
occasion to misrepresent facts.

Important Intelligence.
For many years past this paoer
has been an earnest and consistent
opponent of the Standard Oil Trust;
and from first to last nrobably hun
dreds of columns have been devoted
to the purpose of setting forth the
reasons why it ought not to be al
lowed to exist.
It is, consequently, with special
pleasure that we are able to an
nounce the fact that at length "the
beginning of the end" is in sight. A
most powerful combination has been
formed for the express purpose of
fighting this monstrous monopoly,
and it has without doubt the sym
pathy of every decent man and wo
man in the country.
A year ago there was organized
under the laws of New York a con
cern known as the Pork Oil Com
pany, the capital of which is $1,000,
000. Tue other day the annual meet
ing of that oorapans tas 4aeld and
arrangements were enacted by vir
tue of which the Pure Oil Company
ia joined by the United States Pipe
Line Company, the Producers' Pipe
Line Company, and the Producers'
Oil Company, Limited. The capital
invested in these companies is over
$3,000,000, and a vigorous campaign
is to be entered upon.
The investors in those companies
have over twenty millions employed
in oil producing ami oil refining
properties. Into the details of what
is to be done it is not at present
proper to enter. In fact, the loss
said about it the better. Suffice it
to Hay that tho Standard Oil Trust
is fast approaching tho "end of its
rope." It will bo dostroyed as suro
ly n it has destroyed and ruined
hundreds and thousands of honest
men wno have dared to oppose its
schemes.
We attach the more importance to
the new company for tho reason that
its direction is in the hands of sing
ular ability, courage and determina
tion, as will be seen from the follow
ing liHt of Directors : Michael Mur
phy, Philadelphia . C. P. Collins,
Bradford, Pa. ; E. H. Jennings, Pit
tsburg ; J. W. Loe, Pittsburg ; V. K.
Phillips. Butler, Pa.; Peter Thas
bold, Oil City, Pa. ; T. It. Westcott,
Titusville, Pu, ; Lewis Emery, Brad
ford, Pa.; and Hugh King, New
York.
At a meeting of tho Directors tho
following oflicrs were chosen : Presi
dent, J. W. Loe; Vice-President,
Michael Murphy ; and Treasurer,
Hugh King.
One of the principal reasons for
pushing the fight against the .Stand
ard at this time is found in the fact
that the independent producers
have been selling considerable oil
during the last year, but on account
of tho Standard underselling them
in New York and keeping them out
of the foreign trade, and otherwise
interfering with them it was decided
to reorganize and conduct the bus
iness on the same basis an the Stand
ard.
They wero shut out of other ports
by the Standary buying up all the
tankace. It is now the intention to
distribute their oil from Antwerp,
Rotterdam and other places. Pipe
linos have been extended to the sea
board, and the independent refiners
will now be ablo to export oil.
We shall watch with interost the
coming struggle between these col-

WORN OUT."
A COMMON EXPRESSION USED BY
AMERICAN WOMEN.
Hany do not Rralli th Full Si(-nlfloane
f ThoM Two Words.
When a woman is nervous and irri
table, bead and back ache, feels tired
all the time, loses sleep and appetite,
has pains in groins, bearing-down
sensation, whites
and irregulari
ties, she is not
"worn out,"
but feels
as if she
were.
Such
symp
toms
tell
her
that a womb
trouble is imminent, and she cannot
act too promptly if she values her
future comfort and happiness.
The experience and testimony of
some of the most noted women of
America, go to prove beyond a ques
tion that Lydia E. Plnkham't Vegetable
Compound will correct all such trouble
at once by removing the cause and
restoring the organs to a healthy and
normal condition. If in doubt, write
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., as
thousands of women do.
Here is a lady who says:
" Lei me add my name to your list
of testimonials; For yC"" -T suffered
with inch a weakness ?i.the back
could not Italia straight. I had terri
ble pains in my womb. The doctor said
an operation must be performed, as
there was no other way to be cured.
I was afraid to have the operation per
formed, and kept
trying the modi
cines that I saw
advertised. At
lust I tried yours.
After tak
iug three
bottles I
felt like a
new wo
man. I rec
omtoend it
to every woman, and cannot praise it
enough, for it saved me from the sur
geon's knife." Mas. Mark Bucu,
