Rockefeller Gets Revenge.

For months tho Rockefeller-Rogers Standard oil clique has borne without A murmur the daily blasts from the stinging pen of Thomas w. Lawson of Boston, but now they are having their day They are not talking back to MT. Lawson. they are just reaching deep down into his pocket and pluclxing his good money They trimmed him for s. 100000 at one clip, according to his own admission. The wise ones say that it was much more, but no one knows the exact figures eX- cept Lawson. MT, Rockefeller is getting his revenge by pushing up Amalgamated Copper while Lawson, through his pool. is playing it for a fall. Men in Wall street say the stock is going higher still which will mean more inroads upon the Lawson bank roll. The sad part of 1t is that Lawson has not been the only one hard hit. Many persons in all parts of the coun- trv are believed to have lost heavily. But recent developments should teach the public a lesson in regard to Lawson No doubt he has told much truth about the system" but he has proved himself a very untrustworthy prophet. Three months ago MT. Lawson said that he never speculated. that he always dealt in facts. This was in August and, at the same time, he had this to say about Amal- gamated Copper:
 "The price of copper the metal will break suddenly to very low figure. This Is not a prediction. It is not surmise or manipulation. It is a statement of fact. When the price of copper the metal breaks there will follow a terrific slump in copper and smelling stocks. In order that my friends may participate in the profits 1 will conduct a S10.00c,0 900 pool
 The other day this is what he had to say:
 Notice to Pool Subscribers-Notices are being mailed tonight showing loss of 36 per cent (s3, ,6C0,00O-s1.20 900 metal s2,- 400, 900 stocks)-All participants will have right to increase their total subscription New subscribers will be on same terms and conditions as old
 The public would do well to do some sober thinking before putting up any more money for the Lawson pool. Some per sons go so far as to say that MT. Law son has profited by the losses of the pool buying what he advised others to sell, but this is probably untrue.

he Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
 Contrast, if you please the attitude of the president of the United States Steel corporataion with that of his father. The old gentleman asserts that if the reports are true, his relations with his son are ended. And then he gives his opinion of the man who, when fortune came, would desert his wife who had done the house work and sewing and had reared the children when her husband was earning $40 a month.
 There is no confusion of moral values here. The elder Corey, who at 75 IS still tax collector of Pennsylvania town. was brought up in the school of economy and thrift that developed the sterner virtues. He understands the worth of loyalty and affection and the significance of the family. He may never have had 5000 in his life, but he Is not blinded by the glitter of his sons millions.

Henry Clay said: T would rather be right than President" Martin W. Little ton says, .I would rather be solvent than Borough President" MT Littletons as- sertion is taken as an answer to the question asked so often. Can poor man who is honest afford to hold public of- fice?" If MT. Littletons case can be taken as a fair example he cannot. Mir. Little ton probably could have been renom- mated. but he declined to continue in office because he was in debt and he says it is through no fault of his own. Here is his explanation:

The Erie,s New Departure.

The Erie railroad is leading the way in a project that some day may become universal, that Is, the paralleling of the great trunk lines with trolley systems. Plans have been announced for the con- struction of a line along the Erie be- tween Binghampton and Corning, seventy six miles.
 There has been great activity among trolley promoters of late in projecting lines to parallel the big trunk railroads. especially since some of the railroads have adopted electric traction. An inde pendent trolley line Is either being built or projected parallel to pretty nearly every part of the New York Central sys- tenn in this state, and the Erie is eX- periencinng about the same thing. The directors have decided that it would be wiser to forestall the various trolley schemes and build their own lines. It is pointed out that the steam railroads al- ready have rights of way, a complete or ganization and plenty of capital

 His mother, thinking he would become Frightened at the elephants and other animals, told him he would have to be brave and manly and not be afraid of anything he would see.

Harriman,s Little Joke.

Edward H. Hartman has gone on the stand and spun his little yarn in reply to Thomas F. Ryan. MT. Hartman now calls some of his testimony joke, but some of the men concerned In it, especially Ex-Governor Odell the deposed republi- can boss of the state, won't laugh very loud at it. When MT. Hartman was asked if he got his political influence through Odell, he replied that Odell got this political influence through Hartman. If Odell needed another nail to fasten down his coffin se- curelv it was driven in when the jocu- lar MT. Hartman made this statement. But that was not all MT. Harriman's con- fession. He told of having the speaker

Timely Advice.

broke out, the senior editor of trade
journal published in the interests OF
business men and financiers was on a
visit to a mining town In the far
West. Fearful lest his junior, in the
Office at home, might give editorial ut
terance to pessimistic views and weak
en- public confidence still further, he
fastened to telegraph office and de-
spatched brief message of advice.
1t happened that the junior partner
on this particular day had just be-
come the father of pair of fine twin
boys. While his friends in the office
were congratulating him upon this
event, messenger entered with a
telegram. He opened it. and read the
following message from the senior
partner:

How They Lost Their Home.

The sons thought they must "sow
their wild oats" as well as other "'fel-
lows in their set"
They signed important papers with
out reading them or knowing their
contents, Just because they were asked
to do so.
The mania to make an appearance
beyond their means caused them to
mortgage their property and ended in
bankruptcy.
They feared that the people with
whom they had dealings would think
them suspicious If they asked them
for a receipt for money.
They entertained too expensively
and great deal more than they could
afford because they wanted people to
think they were in good circum
stances.
The father thought that to go on a
"spree" now and then was his pre-
rogatiye as head Of the family. After
q while he availed himself Of his ''pre
rogative" once too often.

ters into the society Of those above
