Ambition Slipping Away.
Bismarck women know how the
aches and pains that come when the
Kidneys fail make life burden. Back
ache, hip pains, headaches, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles, all
tell of sick kidneys and warn you Of
the stealthy approach of diabetes,
dropsy and Bright's disease. Doan's
Kidney Pills permanently cure all
these disorders Here's proof Of it
in a Bismarck Woman's words:
Mrs. MiHey Fox. GOT Fifth street,
Bismarck, N. Oak, says: "it is a
pleasure to recommend a remedy Of
such curative powers as Doan's Kid
ney Pills. About a year ago II was
suffering quite severity from dull ach
ing in the small of my back, and a
dragging down feeling in my loins and
limbs. The kidney secretions were
very irregular and annoyed me a
great deal. II procured a box of

Methods Of Rockefeller Tu'ar Head Of Standard OIL Who
Is Writing His "reminiscences, and Archbold, the
Active Head Whose Policy Of Publicity
Has Created Stir.
Has Created a Stir.
BY JAMES A. EDGERToN.

BY JAMES A. EDGERToN.
fTYHIS is a story Of the two John
DIS, or the big and little boss
Of the Standard Oil. The like
ness between the two men does
not end with their front names. Both
Rockefeller (without his wig and
Archbold are short on hair and long
on money, both endow universities, and
both are devout church members.
Rockefeller was born In New York and
emigrated to Ohio, and Archbold was
born in Ohio and emigrated to New
York. One is the president and the
other the vice president Of the big oil
trust, but while the tall John D. shapes
the general policies Of the concern the
short John D. works out the details.
1t must not be supposed, however, that
Mr.. Rockefeller has all the big things
his own way. It Is known that one
very important change in the Stand
ards plan Of campaign was brought
about by Mr.. Archbold This was in
relation to publicity. The Rockefeller
plan had been to say nothing and gath
er in the earth and the fullness there
of. The Archbold method Is to con.
tinue taking in the earth, but to keep
up an easy flow Of conversation and
printers Ink while in the act. AS soon
as allowed to have his own way the
little John D. set to work with his
ready letter writer and talked back.
Whenever anybody attacked the Stand.
and OH company there Immediately ap>
peared In the papers a letter from Mr..
Archbold saying in effect that the man

rot but be fascinated by the tale OF
how the worlds most colossal business
was organized and the worlds richest
man got his wealth. We cannot deny
Rockefeller intellect, say what we may
of his character or heart. 1t will be
worth while to know his side, to see on
what theory he bases his actions, to
find the flaw in his attitude and argu-
ment as well as that in our own. Rock
efeller and Archbold seriously regard
themselves as benefactors rather than
malefactors. They say their wealth
has been obtained honestly, that they
have resorted to usual business weap-
ons only in their fights with rivals,
that the attacks on them come from
competitors rather than consumers,
that they have shown the power Of
combination in cheapening both pro-
duction and distribution, that they
have opened new markets throughout
the world, educating the Chinese in
the use Of oil and thus literally taking
them from darkness into light, and
that finally they have given great be-
quests to education in their own land,
thus figuratively performing De same
service for the mental eyes of their
countrymen as they have for the phys
ical eyes of the Celestials. Rockefeller,
it is true, does not directly mention
the educational matter himself, but it
cannot be omitted from a list of the
services to mankind claimed by him
and for him.

his ten years retirement and has taken
more active control Of the affairs Of
the Standard. Some Of those epistles
would drag ghost back from the 9TH
er shore or statesman from his Job,
SO it is not to be wondered at that they
should have pulled Rockefeller again
into the fray. The public is already
familiar with the famous missives con-
corning Senator Foraker and other high
lights in the political armament, but
here is another epistolary gem from
former Congressman Sibley to Mr..
Archbold that may not have reached SO
many eyes. 1t runs:
Personal and Confidential.

My Dear Mr.. A.-A (Rep.) United States

Of $1,000. I told him did not have 1t, but

Charity Of Worlds Richest Man.

A mere list Of the known Rockefeller
benefactions is staggering, and there
are many of his donations that have
never been made public. In the giving
game the oil king does not let his
right hand know what his left hand is
doing-that is, not always. To the
general education board he has made
over the enormous sum Of $43, 1000, ,000
and of this $32,O0o,O00 was given at
one time. He has donated 500, 100000
to the University Of Chicago, 100000
and library on Greek art and litera-
ture and money donations to Vassar,
s1,875,O 900 to Barnard college, $25O,OO0
to missionary bodies, $1,000, 900 to
Yale, $1,S25, 600 to the Rockefeller In
stitute For Medical Research, $1,126,-
900 to the Southern Education fund,
Harvard $1,0O0OOO, Teachers college
$500, 900 and numerous other donations
to educational and religious fnstitu-
tions, amounting in .an to over $S5, ,O00,-
900. -
The Rockefeller charity has been
organized as regular business. It is
headed by trained experts, who closely
scrutiniza and Investigate every appli-
cation for gift. The mere admins
trative expense Of this bureau costs in
the neighborhood of $4,000 a year.
The amount given out each twelve
months foots up millions. But all of
this Is a mere bagatelle to a man who
is SO rich that he does not know with
In many millions of dollars how rich
he Is, according to his own admission.
It is probably not true that he is bill
lionaire. That being does not exist on
the earthyet. If Rockefeller lives a
few years ionger-he is now sfxty-nine
and comes Of a long lived race-he may
reach 1t. There Is little or no question
that he is the richest man in the world.
He has five residences-one in New
York city, one at Pocantico Hills, near
Tarrytown, N. T.; one at Lakewood,
N. j., and two at Cleveland, o., one
being a town house and the other in
the country. He spends some time in
each of his houses, goes to church reg
uiarly each Sunday, officiating some
times as deacon; never goes into soci-
ETY., plays golf as regular recreation
and generally enjoys life as much as
man without any hair and with more
money than he can count or give away
can be expected to do. That is John d.
Rockefeller, the man who has more
dollars and more denunciations than
any other In the world.

Standard OiI's Active Head.

AS for the other John D., the smaller
one, he Is only wisp of a man, but
with q prominent forehead and COM
batfve thickness between the ears. He
has more hair than Rockefeller, fewer
dollars and fewer benefactions. He
seems to follow in the footsteps of his
chief, as he also lives near Tarrytown,
a region once made famous By Wash
ington Irving. After all, the people
who live longest and are loved most
are not those who take material
wealth from humanity, but those who
give mental and spiritual wealth to
humanity. This truth proved 80 often
OF old time is being most strikingly
driven home once more.
Mr.. Archbold is nine years younger
than Rockefeller and is now the ac-
tive, as the other Is the titular, head
OF Standard OIL. He is imperyious to
criticism, though he objects to the
term tainted money and also dis
likes to be called "the man behind'

Erred Carsten of Bismarck, N. D.,
president of the Sundance Oil Co., a
corporation having for its purpose
the development of oil wells in the
Rocky Ford district, was in the city
last Saturday, having come here for
sGme fixtures for his drilling outfit.
Mr.. Carsten, in conversation with the
writer, declared that he had great
faith in the Oil prospects of the Rocky
Ford field.
"'He was in thatscountry last Febru-
airy, and collected and sent samples Of
the crude oil found there to experts
in Ohio, who sent back the following
analysis: Lubricating oil, 70 per
cent, kerosene, 20 per cent, gasoline
/ per cent, parafine, and other solids,

crude oil taken from the Ohio wells
sells at about $3.50 barrel. and the
experts there told him that if he could
deliver into their pipe lines, oil of as
high a grade as his Rocky Ford sam
pies, it would be worth $500 per bar
rel Mr.. Carsten is an experienced
oil man having put in several years
in the Ohio oil fields, and he has con-
fidence in the prospects at Rocky
Ford.
'His company has secured leases on
some 10000 acres of decided land on

price of senators seems to have come
down. At this figure the Standard
could easily buy up all the senates,
parliaments, congresses, legislatures
and other lawmaking bodies on earth.
It would seem to be as cheap to buy
senators as to buy slaves In the old
days. A good slave brought 81 600, and
he had to be fed, clothed and housed
besides, while the senator looks after
these minor details FOR himself.
Unless Mr.. Archbold is as much
pleased with the latest turn of his pub
licity campaign as Is the general pub
Lie he will doubtless hereafter follow
the advice Of a famous American
statesman and "burn that letter" Files
and presses containing secret corre-

Claims of the Oil Kings.
II the little John D. has been unfor-
tunate in taking the public into his
confidence, however. the big one has
gone on swimmingly. In his reminis-
cences he chats along In garrulous
and cheerful fashion, intimating that
things are not half SO bad as painted
and that he may tell some things
which will put a new aspect on the
case. So far he has not diyulged any
Of these pleasant points, but has only
limited that he may do SO. In sort OF
inward chuckle he dismisses the story
that he forced any Of his business as
sociates to come In with him or suffer
ruin, alleging as proof that they have
stayed with him loyalty all these years,
which they hardly would have done II
coercion had been used In the FIRST In
stance. He also speaks Of the liberal
treatment given by the Standard to Its
employees, recites the fact that the
company has had scarcely any strikes
or labor troubles and recounts with
some pride the provision OF old age
pensions for his superannuated work
men. There is a promise OF something

Mr.. Archbold said that a mistake

the Standard would take the public

variation on the manner in which the
public had been taken In and conf

hailed with sigh Of relief. For time
the new policy worked as smoothly as

Rockefeller himself was converted. He
grew more and more 1oquacious, not
only In court, where he could not help
himself, but at other times, when he
talked only because he yearned to tell

American Press Humorists, made the
reporters boon companions and finally
wound up by publishing his reminis-

q Yet Archbold, the originator Of the
policy, got more publicity than he had
bargained for. The papers not only
printed the letters that he intended to
have printed, but other missives that
were designed only for United States
senators and other officials who needed
the money and wanted to earn 1t by
becoming errand boys for the Stand
