the heavy villain, and it so pleases
him that he employs her to write his
personal history, not knowing she is
the daughter of his enemy.
At some previous stage Of the game
the playwright has conveniently had
Miss TarbelI and John D. Rockefeller,
jr, meet on a ship returning from
Europe. The heir of the house of
Standard Oil falls in love with the
fair authOress woos and finally wins
her. But the head of the Rockefeller
household bitterly opposes the match,
and it is at this interesting point that
the authOress enters his household.
She tells him a few truths quotes
some passages from 1.-The History of
the Standard Oil Company" for his
benefit. and thus gets him to call of
the senate from impeaching her father
and also to consent to the marriage
and they live happy ever afterwards.
These are some of the liberties
which the drama has taken with the
houses of Rockefeller and Tarbell. It
reminds one in a way of the little diff
hculties that once took place between
the families of Messrs. Montague and
Capulet. as recorded by the late Mr..

PLATES POSITION.

When Senator Thomas G. Plat was
asked, in the New York insurance in
vestigation, concerning political con-
tributions that he had received from
the big insurance companies, he ac-
knowIedged that he had received an
nually from two of them something
like $4,000 each, and a less sum from
a third. These contributions have been
made every year, he said, for the past
fifteen years, and in emergencies he
could cau for more
In return for these contributions he
was expected to head off any leglsla-
ton at Albany inimical to the insur-
ance companies. This was understood
The insurance companies were to have
just about what they wanted from the
New York legislature-and they have
always got it until the present investi-
cation was inaugurated.
Here is what President Roosevelt
says about political contributions from
corporations
IF they are extorted by any kind of
pressure or promise. express or inn
piled. direct or indirect, in the way Of
favor or immunity. then the giving or
receiving becomes not only improper
but criminal"
According to Senator Platt's own
statement in return for the contribu-
tons the big insurance companies were
to have their own way in legislation
at Albany Whether this was express
or implied he did not say, but either
way according to President Roosevelt,
it was criminal
That is the position in which the
senior senator from New York is
placed by the presidents message.

THE LIBERTY OF THE DRAMA.

An eastern playwright, with neither
the fear of a multimillionaire nor re-
spect for a forcible woman writer in
his heart, has dramatized John d.
Rockefeller and Miss Ida NJ. Tarbell.
He has taken the extreme liberty of
making Miss Tarbeli and the Junior
Rockefeller fan in love with one an
other. but in order to do so it is neees-
sary for him to bring in all sorts Of
fmpOssibilities far from the facts in
the case.
This is how it happened, according
to the playright: Miss Tarben's
father was not an oil producer, &C
cording to the play, but a federal
Judge who made decisions inimical to
Standard Oil. This is q departure
from the facts No. 1, for can you
imagine the average federal judge in
years gone by deciding against the
