RULER ROCKEFELLER,
PROFESSOR BEMIS MUZZLED BE
CAUSE HE TOLD THE TRUTH

PROFESSOR BEMIS MUZZLED BE-
CAUSE HE TOLD THE TRUTH
The forced retirement of Prof. Bemis
from Chicago University is creating con-
siderable discussion. The professor, it
seems, refused to be muzzled, although
warned repeatedly that his anti-monopo-
lstic views were not looked upon with ia
yor by the powers that be- AS was the
case some time ago when two professors
were compelled to resign, SO it turns out
in this instance that John D. Rockefeller,
who robs the public with one hand and
endows churches and colleges with the
ether, was responsible for the dismissal
of Prof. Bems.
Nor does this tyrant alone attempt to
control the education of people in colleges,
but at their homes. Five sailors on
steamship owned by the Minnesota
Steamship Company, Of which Rocxefel-
Ter is the chief shareholder, were recently
discharged and blacklisted simply be-
cause they refused to discontinue the
reading of certain labor paper for
which they had subscribed. Despot Rock
efeller also recently discharged several
workmen from the Standard Oil Works
solely because they had become members
OF the Peoples party. The oil and iron
oIc hlHS IS oVluenGly aiming TO become
despot second only to his friend, the Czar
OF Russia. He forbids the reading of
literature, fearlessly battling against his
class; endows colleges and muzzles or
discharges men who would teach the
truth. In a word, the Standard Oil mag
nate to-day occupies a position not unlike
that held by feudal barons of old.
"Rockefeller's class is making a seri-
Gus mistake in trying to check the rising
tide of economic thought says the Co.
operative Age. "Conditions are forcing
mankind to read and think and expert
ment. There is a rumbling beneath the
surface, and woe to the ones who would
suppress it! The short-sighted nobility
of century ago attempted to check nat
ural progress, and it's success was it's
doom. The tension to-day is steadily in
creasing. Every industry is being revolu-
tionized; every avenue of escape is be-
coming choked. Instead of welcoming
the agitator and giving ear to his plans
to adjust matters, he is driven from pillar
to post-starved, Knocked, oppressed
Brotherhood Era.

CORK TREES IN GEORGIA.

About thirty-five years ago several
young cork trees were sent to Sanderville
by the government and set out to test
their adaptation to the climate.
Three or four are yet living, but the
largest one is in the front yard of the
Jackson house, being two feet or more in
diameter.
Last week it was stripped of it's bark
around the trunk under the direction of
Colonel Richard L. WarthAb,, who mani
tests great interest in trees of all vari-
cites, and samples of the cork will be
forwarded to Washington and to the At
lanta exposition The bark, or cork. is
two and half inches thick, and is good
material. Colonel Warthen, who has
studied the matter closely, is confident
that this is the first tree that cork has
ever been taken from in the United
StateS.-Augusta Chronicle,
