Even a Rockefeller has

that way. Even Rockefeller has
his admirers.
Richmond ;Mayp;Smith, probes
sor of political economy at colum-
bus university, saws of the question::
mo alarm ought 10 be felt by
the communit- in this concentra
ton of wealyh in the hands of John
D. Rockefeller, tor these reasons:
First, Mr.. Rockefeller gains this
immense wealth by performing
services to the community, and the
community gains in increased
cheapness of commodities, in better
service and in cheaper transporta-
ton. However wealthy Mr.. Rock
efeller may get, the advantage to
the community is still greater.
Second, the greater the interests
involved in Mr.. Rockefeller's en-
terprises the more sensitive to
competition. Capital is SD abun-
dant that there is always danger OF
rival concerns, even when man
thinks he has monopoly. In or
der to prevent rivalry the monopo-
list in the long run will generally
keep the prices reasonable. There
fore, from that point of view, the
public is also protected.
Third, the more concentrated
these enterprises become, the more
they fear the power of public opln-
ion and the easier it is to regulate
them by legislation. That has been
seen in the history of the railroads
in the United States.
Fourth, the mathematical cal
culation that if Mr.. Rockefeller
goes on acquiring wealth at the
same rate as in the past in a GER
tain number Of years he will own
the United States is fallacious, just
as f4lEacious as saying that if the
population goes on increasing or
doubling once in twenty-three
years, as at the beginning of this
century in this country, in a few
hundred years there wouldn't be
standing room. The Germans
have a proverb that heaven takes
care that trees shall not grow as
tall as the belven.' It will! be the
same way in the accumulation Of
these great fortunes. Mr.. Rocke-
Teller will not live forever: and after
his death his fortune may be dissi-
pated, or lift is kept together those
who control it will surely be edu
Gated to use it for public benefit.
Public opinion is a controlling
force which the most powerful cor
po1ation cannot in the long run
escape"
Professor Mayo-Smith is hope
ful scientist and noted for the
optimism of his views. '.

HOW ANTS MAKE S, AVA
Warrior ARts Which, Easlave tho SMALL
.... and Weaker Species.

Warrior Aats Which Easlavs tho SNAIL
.... and Weaker Species.
The warrior ant is q slaVo-nlaking
species. It is large red kind, and it
makes raids against rests Of the small
yellow turf ant. a mild and docile race,
large numbers Of which it carries off to
act as servants.
But it does not steal rully grown turf
ants. Their habits are formed and
they would be useless for such purpose.
What the warrior ant wants is raw
material. which can be turned into
thoroughly well-trained servants. SO
It merely killed tie adult ants which
strive to oppose its aggression and con-
tents itself with truldling home to its
own nest the Iavae and pupae of the
turf ants which it has put to flight and
vanQuished.
In time these grIbs and cocoons pro-
duce full-grown yellow workers, which
can be taught by the warrior ants 10
act as nurses and Aousemaids. | once
saw in a garden in Algiers a great
pitched battle going on between slave
makers and the family of the future
slaves, in which tho ground was streWn
with the corpses Of the vanquished.
Not till the nests Of the smaller ants
were almost externliDated did they re-
tire from the unequal contest and al
low the proud invader to carry OH
their brothers and sisters In their CO.
coons, asleep and unconscious. Oc-
casionally, by dint Of mere numbers,
they beat off the invader with heavy
loss: but much more often the large
and strong-jaw warriors win the
day and destroy to q worker the oppos-
ing forces. They crush their adver-
saries' heads with their vice-like man
dibles. Meanwhile. within the nest
the other half of the workers-the de-
vision told of as special nurses are
otherwise employed in defending and
protecting the rising generation. At
the first alarm, at the first watchword
passed with antenIae through the
nest, "a warrior host is attacking us, y
they hurry to the chambers where the
cocoons are stored and bare them OH
In their mouths into the recesses Of the
nest. the laYest and most inaccessible
Of all the Chambers.

REPUBLICAN, SPLIT IN IDAHO.
The McKinIeyites VIII Insist on n Gold
Plank i'm the Platform.

Special Dispatch TO the Standard.
Pocatello, idaho. July l6.-clu rolls for
the formation OF a gold standard republi-
can club are being circulated here and are
being quite generously signed by former
republicans. The main cause for dissatis-
faction among the silver republicans Is
the opposition of certain democratic and
populist leaders in regard to a union OF
the silver parties In the campaign in the
state this fall.
News from Boise Is that there Is likely
to be a serious split in the ranks Of the
republican party. Not a few OF the men
who supported Mckinley two years ago
have been appointed federal officers, and
these men, Il Is said, will insist that the
platform of the Idaho republicans this
fall contains a gold standar plank. In
fact, to keep IN touch with the national
administration. they must so insist. Now
the facts are that a lot of voters who
supported Mckinley two years ago are
silver men at heart and cannot be forced
90 swallow an o~ut-an-out gold plank In
the platform. There is no doubt, however,
tina II win be insisted on in the conven-
ton and that II will be adopted. This Will
certainly cause serious dissatisfaction in
the ranks and will. In fact, split the party
wide open

Cubans May Be Intrusted With

1T is A NOBLE HARBOR
A Safe Resort for shipping In the Hurri-
cane season-The Soldiers Anxious
TO Move on Porto Rico Without
Delay-waiting Ships.

New York. July 1s.-A dispatch TO the
Tribune from Santiago de Cuba. via
Port Antonio. Jamaica, says: The vari-
Gus problems connected with the cap
ture and taking possession of Santiago
are rapidly being brought TO solution.
The evacuation of the city by the Span
ish troops. who are now prisoners Of
war. to be shipped back to Spain, will
greatly simplify Tire situation. 1t is
thought that the CuSans under General
Calixto Garcia, VINO have done some
good work in the campaign, can be
entrusted with the general administra-
ton of affairs In the surrendered terri
tory.
They would. OF course. at least for the
present. act under the direction of Unit
d States military officials, who would
hold Santiago City with a garrison OF
United states troops. These could be
stationed on the hills above the city.
where the weather. is tolerable even In
midsummer, and where there Is no Ian
ger of fever. Two or three regiments,
IL liz believed. would be ample for garri-
son purposes and thus at least l2,OOO
seasoned men would be at once released
for service In Porto Rico.
General Miles is anxious TO remove tho
troops from Cuba as soon as possible.
wen IL they have TO be kept on the ships
for a time before moving against Porto
Rico, and therefore is eagerly awaiting
the determination of the further CAM
paign by the Washington government.
There seems to be no fo.bt as to what
he and his soldiers would like 10 do.
The universal feeling In tha. Porto Rico
should be the next objective point and
that there should be no delay In going
thither so as TO have actual possession
Of ii before negotiations for peace begin.
II is recalled that the climate of Porto
Rico is far more favorable than that Of
any part Of Cuba for a summer cam
paign.
Travel and transportation bids fair TO
be renewed here with a rush. as soon as
permission Is given. A considerable feet
of ships and boats of all kinds Is waiting
to get into Santiago harbor with sup
plies, which are sorely needed. Some OF
the supplies will be welcomed by the
American soldiers and sailors. whose
cheerful adaptation of campaign rations
has not destroyed their taste for more
paiatable food. The harbor OF San
tiago will be cleared Of mines as speed
lily as possible inc then utilized as a
naval station and harbor OF refuge. II
is admirably fitted to be a safe resort
for American shipping In the hurricane
season, which Is now upon us.
