corrupt corporation. expressed public

er assail the Standard OIL Co.
sometimes think that the speaker
has merely heard the name men,
toned, and does not know what
the purpose Of the company Is. or
Its plan Of business.

wonders in the United States. The

OF the raw material, has made oil
products reach values that were
never dreamed OF few years
ago"
Fellow members OF the Independ-

more about the purpose Of the Stand

Co. has done wonders In the United
States or at least In the United
States senate.

were never dreamed OF a few years
ago. an going to read you the fol-
lowing letters:
