The History Of the standard OIL
Company.

Mcclure Phillips promise Miss
Ida M. Tarbell's THE History Of
the Standard Oil Company" for
early in December. Among the
serious works Of the year this one
will probably take FIRST place.
The book is made from the articles
which have been appearing in Nc.
Cures Magazine but has been en-
larged and rewritten to include sd.
ditional information and facts that
were disclosed during the serial
run Of the article. Miss TaTbell,
whose Life OF Lincoln" and
Lille of Napoleon gave her
standing at the head OF the lead
ing women historians Of Ameri-
ca, in telling the history OF this
first and greatest American trust
has also told the history OF the
rise OF the trust problem. She
made a dramatic story OF the war,
now over thirty years old between
the Standard oil trust and the peo-
pie. Her facts arc all supported
by documentary evidence, and are
reinforced aud given life by the
personal interviews that the author
has had with leading men in all
the incidents she describes. The
book gives an unprecedented
statement of the facts. Miss Tar.
bell, herself, lived many years in
the oil districts, and she writes
OF things and people with which
she was intimately familiar.

there was no boom but that it was

The experiment of a new manager
at Olss plantation will be watched
with interest. Ever since the estate
has been put into cane there has
been something radically wrong
with it. The acreage is large enough,
there is not the expense of pumping
water, put the sugar per acre is not
produced. Figures are generally
reliable, and the figures in this case
show something wrong. If Mr. Watt

Senator Palmer Woods now fesls
that there 10 mo politics for this
chicken We'll, 20 far as the Demo
cratic party is eonoerned,it is proba-
bly, good thing. A man who will
carry water on both shoulders and
only feels ssrry that he has not an
other, is not good people to CAM p
with. Inside OF two months Senator
Woods has thrown the Democratic
party down twice. That would
seem to be about enough.
The Advertiser criticizes the
Democratic party for selecting a
delegation OF the cslibre sent to st
Louis and makes up ticket that
would have been more satisfactory
to itself and its hackers, 1t is . great
pity that the Democrats of the ISL

yention assembled, for surely ID the
party would have most respectfully

its Central Committee was not, in
any way, responsible for ths ixxle

then made and attend tonight's
rally, being ever mindful that if
