DOLLAR GASOLINE
Whether or not the Standard Oil'
Co., will charge one Hollar a gallon'
for their motor "Jolce." Senator La.
FoMetta says they will have the power'
to Ho It, onle« they are rc«trained
by the strong hand of the law. That
restraint the Wisconsin Senator will
endeavor to provide when the Con
great convenes next (December. It
was supposed that the power of this
monopoly was broken, when Congress
separated the trial.t into various unlta
some years ago; bat according to
the committee report which Mr. La
FolleUa has made, the attempt to
curtail the power ef Standard Oil
only increased It, The fact that this
report to enraged the official* of the
company excltee tho suspicion that
LaFoDetie and bis committee have
“hit tbe spot ” The weak attempt to
cover the report with ridicule by the
Picei<lent of tbe New Jersey branch
ef tbe Standard OH 'Company, will
not work, and Is completely answered
by the boshy-bceded Senator from
Wisconsin, who knows Haw to take
ears af Himself as well as anybody in
the United States. It la hoped that
the investigation and report of the
I'A-wer and purpose at the Standard
Oil Co., will «lir Cdngrwsa to prompt:
