JUST WHAT STANDARD OIL IS

Minneapolis Journal: Mr.. Jer-
names story of the qualifications OF
Standard Oil, while known to a few,
will come upon the average man as a
revelation. That the control of Oil
is no longer the principal business of
the Standard Oil company must be
apparent from merely reading the
list Of business that the Standard
Oil crowd already owns or dominates.
The list runs from leather to steel
and from salt to copper. It in
Guides railroads, tobacco, sugar and
Insurance. 1t omits nothing which
can be bought cheap and made dear.
The explanation Of this Is that the
Standard Oil company has been phe-
nomenally successful. 1t has been
making for years about s45, 900, 600
annually, 80 per cen Of which went
into the pockets OF John d. Rookie
Teller and what is known as the
STANDARD Oil family" This money
was not demanded in the oil bust
ness, for, in addition to declaring
these dividends, the Standard Oh
company always sets aside ample
sums for development and a COM
Portable surplus.
The profits must 90 into other liz
dustries. And they have. They
have gone into copper and there is
the Amalgamated. They have gone
into steel. and there is the steel trust.
They have gone into railroads ana
there are 1900 miles Of trunk line
controlled by Standard Oil. They
have gone into banking and there is
the National City bank Of New York,
overshadowing all competitors, but
only the biggest link in a chain Of
financial institutions.
Now all Of this would be formid-
able and depressing enough II 1t were
known that these men had gotten
together such swollen fortunes hon.
estly. But when 1t Is Known that
the Standard Oil company was con-
ceived in fraud, born In dishonor
and has lived in disgrace, its con-
dnued audacious operations become
. positive menace to society. It
makes the application Of the full
figors OF the law of supreme impor-
lance. For the Standard Oil COM
pany has not been satisfied With
power. It has not been sat.ateed
with licking up allied industries. It
has not had its hunger appeased
with grabbing everything profitable
in sight. from steel to tobacco. It
seeks. and every day gains, more
control. It 10 honey mad.
Today 1t seeks to control the life
blood of commerce, the money Of the
country. 1t plans to organize, re.
organize and direct the character of
the currency, and 1t threatens with
extinction all whe oppose the Jug
aeFnant poWer0I It's car. It is now
eclsree thatattssrs size appears to
be rsomathinssof "a protection. To
Knock down the Standard now would
Seem lie knocking down the sky. SO
1t appars to the managers of the
titanic combination. But, neve1the-
less the insidous sapping and mining
this financial disease must be
stopped.

Mr.. Roosevelt's best friends ought
to regret the cavalier treatment his
secretary, Loeb, accorded the Invita-
tion of the Commercial Travellers
Antitrust league in which the presi-
dent was asked to preside at the re-
ception planned for Mr. Bryan on his
! arrival in New York in August The
invitation explained that the league
is non-political and the reception is
not to have any political color. 1t
is further explained that the presi-
dent was asked to be present be-
cause he is believed to be against
trusts.
Instead of securing a personal de-
clination from the president the re-
ply was made by Loeb on his own au-
thority stating merely that the presi-
dent has declined all engagements for
the summer and will make no excep-
tion. Possibly Loeb has cheek enough
to think the public will believe him
when he says the president was not
consulted about the matter at all be-
cause Loeb has done just as impu-
dent things before, but it is asking
too much to expect any one to be-
lieve that even Loeb would assume
such a responsibility in this case.
The Commercial Travellers are an
influential class: their organization
is engaged in n great public serv-
ice in its fight against the trusts,
they have shown disposition to sup
port Roosevelt. and they have under
taken big thing in the Bryan re-
ception because they wish to focus
pubic sentiment in their own cause.
II the invitation had come from a
local hody asking the president to as
sist IN laying a cornerstone or to
attend veteran picnic, Loeb's ac-
ton might be understood; but the
conspicuous rejection of dourte-
Gus request for his presence at an
event of national Importance like the
Bryan reception is in fragrant disre-
gard of all the amneties and in de-
fiance of the usage which usually
obtains even between political op-
ponents.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
BRYAN has, on more than one occas.
ion, gone out of his way to approve
the presidents course on questions
where the two men were in accord.
so that Roosevelt's curt and almost
contemptuous disposition of this af-
fair taken on personal aspect
which IL would not otherwise assume.
II Mr.. Bryan has been big enough
to endorse Roosevelt's policy at
times, Mr.. Roosevelt certainly should
be big enough to take part in gather
ing intended to strengthen the public |
figh on the trusts. The outcome of
the invitation affords very just COM |
parison of the character of the two 4
men; and the comparison is distinct
ly to the disadvantage of Theodore
Roosevelt.-Salt Lake Herald.

MONSTER LOCOMOTIVES.

Thirty huge Atlantic type locomot-
ives Identical with those on the 49,
hour trains on the Lake Shore and
the Pennsylvania have been ordered
from the Baldwin locomotive works
by the Burlington company and will
be used in hauling the Burlington
passon ger trains between Denver and
Chicago.
A speed record of hauling a ten
car passenger train ninety miles an
hour is to be required of the new 10
eomotives=the same as that required
by the Twentieth Century limited en-
gines.
They are to weigh 1877 tons each
which is 1900 pounds heavier than
any previously used by the Burling-
ton and much heavier than any loco
motive used in the west.
They are seventy-five feet long, the
drive wheels are seventy-four inches
in diameter, and the boiler tubes are
twenty-one feet long. The tender
holds 10000 pounds of coal and g.
900 gallons of water.
According to General Agent John
F. Vallery of the Burlington, the To-
comotives were secured because OF
the exceptionally heavy Colorado
travel. They will be able to pull
trains twice the length of those now
being run between Denver and Chi
cago at much faster time.

NEW RITUAL FOR ELKs.

AT the meeting of the Elks in Den
yer next week new ritual will be
formally adopted and for the first
time will be put into use.
The ceremonial of the order us
ed in the Initiation of candidates has
long been noted for its beauty but
those who have been privileged to
witness the new work seem to be
unanimous in declaring that it Is but
tame indeed when compared with that
which will be provided by the coming
convention.
To Colorado man, a resident OF
Colorado Springs, belongs the credit,
above all others. for the general ex-
cellence of the ritual of the secret
work of the order. r. L. Holland,
a past exalted ruler of Colorado
Springs lodge, is chairman of the
committee on ritual and upon him
mas deyolved the greater portion of
the work. The distinction of being
the nrst to lead in the exemplifieation
OF the new ritual belongs to W. w.
wood OF Colorado Springs. The
work OF putting on the new work at
the Grand Lodge has been assigned
10 the Colorado Springs lodge.
Eiks generally are looking for
ward with happy anticipations to the
inauguration of the new ritual.

GARBAGE TO LIGHT TOWN.
Alcohol Made from It viii Ce Used
as Fuel at Sioux City,
Iowa.

Sioux City Ia.-At a meeting Of the
city council recently a resolution was
carried requesting City Chemist w,
Lee Lewis to make an investigation
into the possibility of making dena'
tured alcohol from the garbage collect
ed in Sioux City, the alcohol to be used
as fuel to operate light engines In the
city buildings,
Alderman Maxiener subsequently de-.
clared that with Chemist w. Lee
Lewis he took two buckets Of garbage
from his bakery kitchen, and they
made quantity OF alcohol fully equal
and to all appearances as good alcohol
as was ever made from any kind Of
wood" AS soon as inventions are
completed to make It possible to use
alcohol TO run the light plant in the
city building and library building, the
city Of Sioux City proposes to dispose
OF the garbage OF the entire city by
converting II into fuel fluid.
The potato Feelings and biscuits,
chicken bones and apple cores, old
rags and cherry seeds, will all be
boiled up together and converted into
power for thousands Of electric lights,
Mr. Lewis, who is professor Of chem.
lstry In Mornlnrside college labora-
tory, said regarding the PLAN u am
sure It is practical Garbage, when
properly treated makes the best kind
OF wood alcohol believe the garbage
Of Sioux City would run the municipal
plants and the plant necessary to
make the alcohol II is certainly an
economical proposition. riyaling the
idea Of Victor Hugo that France loses
S5O,OOOOOO every year by allowing the
sewage to drain into the ocean when
II should be put in the VINEYARDS.
Il shall prepare the plans for the
Sioux City plant. and We will be, in all
probability, the first city in the United
States to have such a plant"
