STANDARD OIL A
STANDING MENACE

About twenty years ago in con-
gressional investigation the methods
of the Standard OIL company. then In
its vigorous infancy, were laid bare.
The rapid rise to power and affluence
of an obscure corporations; the mys-
terious failure of established refiner-
les, and how men who had been
wealthy and who had given employ
ment to many operatives found their
trade leaving them without knowing
how or why; the unac ,ountable
prosperity of this new company; Its
offers to buy out Its rivals, rejected
at first and then reduced offers NO.

Other reHnsrs had complained of

but the answer to these complaints
was to show the books aud prove that

came the final exposure Of the
secret rebates, which the company
had obtained by various methods,
aud which had enabled the Standard

GR0SSMAN AIDED IN
LANDING THE SHR|NtRS
Wednesday, July 8


The Examiner OF June 18th says:
The credit of inducing the Mystic
Shriners at their convention at Niaga-
ra Falls last week to agree to meet in
Los Angeles next March is partly due
to the efforts Of Potentate George Fill
mer Of Islam Temple, this city, DR.. NJ.
L. Grossman, potentate of Aloha Tenn
pie In Honolulu, and Past Illustrious
Potentate Fred. Hines of the Shriner
temple In Los Angeles. The other part
of the credit Is due to the fine show
ing the California Shriners made at
Atlantic City in the summer Of 1904,
and to the way the Eastern mobiles
were treated when they met in San
Francisco couple of years ago.
Los Angeles Shriners are to raise
among themselves fund Of $50, 0O0
with which to make the March gather.
ing big social success. In addition
the Honolulu and San Francisco tenn
pies will open separate headquarters
IN Los Angeles during the convention
week and will have good, fat purses
with which to help their Los Angeles
brothers give the Eastern Shriners the
time of their lives.
Most of the San Francisco. Los An
geles and Honolulu Shriners who went
to Niagara Falls have started fol
home. They will travel by the north
ern route and visit the Yellowstone
and Portland on the way.
