SPECIAL NOTICE
To Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and
Other Investors Who Were Robbed
By the Oil Trust in the Kansas
Oil War of 1905. .
When oil was first discovered In Southeast Kansas
1803t there were 400 Independent concerns and compa
nies that Invested between 112,000.000 and 15,O00,uoo In
developing the Kansas field. At one time the Kansas
production was over 80,000 barrels per day. At tlrst the
Oil Trust encouraged the producers and paid 11.18 for
eighteen to twenty-alx- gravity crude and n.88 per barrel
lor thirty-two to thirty-seven gravity crude oil. Thou
sands of cltlxens from Kansas. Missouri and Oklahoma
Invested In good faith In the developing of the Kansas
field and more than 90 per cent of the Investments would
have paid out big-, but as quick as the Oil Trust had
succeeded In lying to the public and deceiving thousands
Into pioneering and developing the Kansas field, the Oil
Trust arbitrarily put down the price of crude oil from
Jl.SS per barrel to cents per bsrrel and then refused
to accept only a limited amout rrom the Independent
producer The founder and now president of the Uncle
Sam Oil Company was one or the Kansas producers that
did not surrender, and In the Kansas oil war that fol
lowed the uncle Sam Oil Company was practically the
only company that protected Its life and maintained
Itself against the criminal discrimination of the Kansas
field. The report of the Kansas attorney general's oince
shows that out of over 400 independent concerns and
companies representing J12.O00.00O to 15,0C0,000 invested,
four or five concerns stood through tho fight, the Uncle
Ssm Oil company being the only big company to weather
the storm.
The voters of Kansas that gave the electoral vote
of Kansas to President Wilson were the citizens that
were robbed and whose oil companies were broken up
and killed by the purchasing agent company of the Oil
Trust. A Republican legislature and Republican governor
of Kansas passed laws that curbed the OH Trust In
Kansas and made possible the great success of the
Uncle Sam 011 Company, which Congressman Jackson.
..one pt .the, members, ot, tha .Indian affairs committee ot
. the last congress, openly stated haI 'saved the people
of Kansas J2.000.OOOr per year, by the competition of the
Uncle Sam Oil Company with the OH Trust.
To become a great company and save the people
12.000,000 per year In a dozen states In the Middle West,
the uncle Sam Oil Company needs tho Osage lease or
430,000 acres pending before congress. With this big
acreage on top of our present 27,000 acres the Uncle
Sam OH oompany can save tho people of the Central
West JoO.000,000 per year In oil, and the people of Kan
sas, Missouri and Oklahoma about the samo amount
yearly on domestic gas. To keep the Uncle Ham Oil
Company from securing large acreage of the "raw ma
terial" and thus protecting the public, the Oil Trust
has resorted to every trick and crime to cheat the
Uncle Sam Oil Company's 12.000 stockholders out of this
Osage lease of 430,000 acres and get it for the Oil Trust.

EM' INDIAN COMMlSSIONKll.
As startling as It may seem, such Is the truth until
an anti-oil trust Democrat candidate for the United
States senate from Kansas has openly declared war on
the present OH Trust Indian commissioner. This Indian
commissioner has proof that he could proceed to collect
for the Osage nation about (112.000,004 twelve mlltlon
dollars the difference due the Osages on the royalty
price of the oil stolen by the Oil Trust at a conspiracy
price fixed by former Republican Oil Trust officeholders
Instead of making the Oil Trust pay the Osages their
112,000.000, the present Indian commissioner could collect
If faithful to his publlo trust he makes an attack on
tho Uncle Sam Oil Company's Osage valid lease and pro
ceeds to frame up with the some Oil Trust concern that
raised the black flag against the Kansas oil producers,
and his first act as a traitor Democrat Indian commis
sioner Is to attempt to take a part ot the Uncle Sam
Oil Company lease without a hearing and give It to the
trust on a frame-up deal of a spite bonus paid by the
Oil Trust that already has over 112,000.000 of Osage money
that could be collected with Interest If this traitor Demo
crat Indian commissioner was as faithful to his publto
trust as he Is to the Oil Trust In his attempt to rob the
Undo 8am refiners ot crude oil to manufacture and de
liver to the public In competition with the greatest
criminal monopoly known In the worM.
If each citizen In Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma
who was robbed by this same Oil Trust concern that
now has a "special pull" with" the present traitor Demo,
crat Indian commissioner, will Invest one-fourth of as
much monsy In the Undo Ham OH Company now and
Join with our fighting Independent army, now over 12,000
strong, we can drive to utter rout these OH Trust manip
ulators In high places beat every Oil Trust senator and
congressman In Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri protect
the Osage lease so the OH Trust cannot steal It and cause
the removal ot the present Indian commissioner and the
pladng In his place an Indian commissioner who will
have a suit brought and collected (not settled for IV
per cent on the side) for 12,000,009. Just about the xaot
sum you Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma people were
robbed of by the Oil Trust In the black flag right on
the Kansas oil fields. A former attorney general of the
United States who sided the first fight on the Uncle Sara
Osage lease, received one fee of (1109.000) one hundred
thousand dollars from the OH Trust within ninety days
after his term ot office expired for appearing In an In
ferior case where ample Oil Trust attorneys were already
hired to take care of the case.
What was that $100,000 padded fee for? What Is trie
OH Trust promising" or paying the present United States
Officials who are doing the eamo Job for the Oil Trust
now? This former United States attorney general aided
the Oil Trust with the same seal as the present traitor
Democrat Indian commissioner.
Join the Uncle Sam OH Company today and aid In
this righteous fight against treacherous officials and tako
reformers and help make the OH Trust dig over that
112,000,000 to the Osages and help protect the Uncle Sara
Osage lease and the Increase on your Uncle Sam stock

directors to the stockholders ot November 51, 1913, ex
plains Itself and Is as follows:
"The board, desires to Impress upon the stockholders
the Importance ot voting In favor of the Increase ot the
capital stock. It mny not bo necessary to sell any ot
thin Increased capital Mock, but the board desires to
provide an opportunity for the patriotic American citizens
to take part In this contest against the criminal OH
Trust for tho rights of this Independent oil company to ex
ist and do business under tho laws ot the United States and
in case It Is necessary to sell any of the proposed In
crease of the capital stock, that the patrlotlo citizens
of the United States be given an opportunity to enroll

of the 'criminal Oil Trust, to free the American peoplo
from the blighting Influence that reaches Into high political
positions, robs the people through Uie "nets ot publlo of
ficials who use subsidized press to keep the people In
Ignorance of the facts and blinded to tha truth.
"The Uncle Sam OH Company has never taken a
backward step. Prom the date of Its organisation It
has fought tho battlo of tho people. It has been at
tacked by every power the Oil Trust could control, in
cluding men occupying the highest public position. Tho
fiubllc press has been utilised for the purpose of libeling
ts officers and belittling their efforts, l'orsons high in
authority have been used to persecute the officers ot
the company. Departments of tho government of the
&eople, which should have protected this company, have
sen used us Instruments In Its persecution. 1'rlccs ot
oil have been cut; freight rates havn been raised; oils
have been damaged; our refineries have been set afire:
our officers have been falsely Indicted: these false In
dictments have been published throughout tho United
States and other persecutions have been conducted
against the officers of this company, all for the pur
pose of preventing It from competing with the criminal
OH Trust, and preventing tho people from being aroused
and exercising against the trust, the power of their
righteous Indignation. Under all theso adverse circum
stances the Uncle Sam OH Company has grown and ad
vanced until It has acquired property of the value ot
13, 000,000, and It Its Urge Osage lease should be validated
by congress, by development Its properties can easily
become worth many millions more and It can become
an effective competitor of the Standard OH Company In
several states In the Mid-Continent Held. It can curb
tho trust as no other Independent company can. It can
Vay Its stockholders a fair dividend and furnish oil to
he people at a fair price and In time It can spread Its
distributing stations all over the nation, The recent In
dictments of Us officers Is an outrage, the Americans
will resent when they know the facts. President II. 11.
Tuoker, Jr., Is Indicted because he published an adver
tisement In The Kansas City Journal requesting loyal
American citizens to petition their congressmen to sup
port the bill now pending In congress to validate our
lease with the Osage national council. William C. l'lumo,
a stockholder of this company, Is Indicted because he
had the bill Introduced In congress, and Albert L. Wilson,
general counsel. Is Indicted became he appeared befora
the aub-commlttoe of Indian affairs In Washington and
urged the committee to subpoena witnesses whose testi
mony would uncover the rascality and crime of the OH
Trust and throw the light of congressional Investigation
upon the conduct of tho unfaithful publlo servants who
have been doing the bidding of tho OH Trust. The board
has determined that the American peoplo shall know
the facts In this Infamous outrage. The board believes
that the time has not yet arrived In tne United States
when It Is a crime to urge loynl American citizens to
petition congress to do right or to Introduce a bUI in
congress providing that Justice shall be done Or to ap
pear before the committee of congress, urging It to In
vestigate tha OH Trust and Us tools In publlo office,
and If the stockholders ot this company agreo with the
board and vote the Increased capital stock, the loyal
American citizens will bo given an opportunity to enroll
themselves as comrades In thts army ot stockholders,
pledged to see Justice done. In thts contest with the
Oil Trust th American people will gladly take the part
ot the Uncle Sam Oil Company, for It has been honest
and It Is right, and the power of the American people
cannot be withstood by all of the dirty dollars which the
trust now possesses, or the henchmen they can employ.
"The subsidised press and the tools ot tho trust in

IN CONCLUSION.
If you remit J.VOOO on this stock you will own prac
tically one oil well. You could not go and secure a
lease and complete a well for less and It might bo dry.
This company submitted this proposition, realising Its
merit and knows the capital la certain to be raised.
With this capital paid In the company will, during the
next eight months, get down the balance of at least
300 producing oil and gas wells. With even fifty more
wells drilled such wells should enhance the value ot
tho properties until they would command roady sale at
$5,000,000 or $4,000,000. Htook Is worth what tho property
would bring and the proceeds pro-rated. No one could
buy the Uncle Ham Oil Coinpany for 3,O0O,OOO now. The
stockholders would vote the sale down. With K.WU.WW
additional cash put Into drilling 409 moro oil and gas
wells completing a main trunk pipe line nnd enlarging
our three refineries to a combined capacity ot 30,000 bar
rels per day will build up and enhance the value of the
Uncle Sam OH Company so that it should sell for 111,000,000
to 120.000,000. Now figure the proposition over for your
self and you will have to admit that this is a real in
vestment opportunity. The oil business ts ranking today
In the Middle West ahead of farming nnd merchandise
or banking. Over M per cent ot oil and gas wells drilled
In Mie Oklahoma field are successful. When completed
they will produce oil for years. We havo a well organ
ized field department. Can operate thirty or forty drills
with more economy than three or tour. We cannot go
to the big banks and trust companies fop capital be
cause they are all moro or loss dominated by the "Money
Trust," which Is the "Standard 'OH" clique ot financiers.
However, wn know that right here at home In Kansas,
Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado
nnd Illinois states where the products from Oklahoma and
Kansas crude oil are needed by the people that In these
states wo can easily find 10,000 patrlotlo Investors who
can Invest an average ot 1200 each and thereby take all
the stock and complete thts big enterprise and keep It
In the ownership of the people and with these nw stock,
holders we can force a real square deal In the Osage
lease fight. If we can save the Osage lease It will put
the stock up twenty times over night.
Ths treasurer of the company Is under a $100,000 bond,
Tho secretary of the company ts a white-haired deter

Pennsylvania, from tho district where the first oil wells
were drilled. Our general counsel, who devotes all hlr

makes them more determined to tulld stronger and
Greater. The oompany Is established and It Is backed

Kansas a free state. We know our proposition Is solid
and that the future will prove that it is a real oppor
tunity. Wo know the Uncle Sam Oil Company with this
additional capital will have a great future. We have
accomplished more during the first few years than the
Oil Trust did In the first years of Us existence. And wn
have had outrageous persecution to meet, with our crim
