The man whose life is without a
definite purpose is like ship without

ing to life, it shows the only real

HENRY II. ROGERS.

In the death of Henry II. Rogers, the
Standard Oil magnate who died sud
denly in New York this week, the
country has lost one of its most ia
nous financiers, one of the most
mated and also one of the most be-
loved of men. In New York business
circles Rogers was czar; in the lit
tie town of Fairhaven, Mass, he was
good neighbor
The career of this man shows ire
mendously what business opportuni-
ties are open to the American youth.
Questionable methods were used in
making the Standard Oil company
what it is, it is true, but the fact
that a newsboy could develop into a
man worth from fifty to seventy-ive
millions of dollars, in one short life
time, is a striking commentary upon
the possibilities presented in this
rich land of opportunity
1t is claimed in some quarters that
Rogers began lle as a grocer clerk,
at SO per week, instead of newsboy,
However, that may be, his beginning
in life was humble.
Until three or four years ago Mr..
Rogers undertakings We're all attend
ed by brilliant and almost unpreced-
| ented success. In fact it is almost
too much to say that he ever lost his
I Midas touch, although his huge eX-
penditures upon his tidewater railway
during the past few years-amount-
ing to some forty millions-aTe said
to have caused him worry that finally
resulted in his breakdown and death.
| Money market conditions were UNI
favorable, the new line traversed a
thinly settled territory and depended
upon a single industry for it's sue
cess. The result was that Rogers
was forced to carry the greatest por-
tion of the burden and to carry 1t
longer than he had expected.
Mr.. Rogers was married twice. He
was born in 1860, being So years old
when he died.
In some quarters Rogers, and not
Rockefeller, is credited with the idea
of forming a pool or trust in oil.

TOO MANY ROBBERIES.

The Omaha train robbery, together
with the innumerable bank robberies
that have been occurring in the mid
die west during the past six months,
should give cause for general alarm
and for a rigid effort upon the part
of states and nation alike to run down
the criminals and bring them behind
prison bars.
Not in years have robberies of this
sort been so commonplace, and the
fact that few of the culprits are
caught points to something rotten in
the police circles of the large cities,
where the crooks congregate and too
often receive police protection.

President Taft is contemplating a
trip to Alaska this summer to learn
at first hand of the condition and
needs of this most important of Amer
lean possessions. Important not alone
because of great wealth and natural
resources, but also because Alaska
will become member of our body
polite and the home of millions of
Americans, while the others can never
be anything more than hangers-on.
Much Alaskan legislation will come up
in the near future and it is wise for
the president to visit the. country and
get in personal touch with conditions
there as he already is with Panama
and the Philippines.

There Is no finer evidence of the
growth of public spirit in this coun-
try than can be found in the greater
interest which is being taken in the

A bill has passed one house of the
Illinois legislature making the dealing
in futures a crime. 1t provides that
any person who sells produce on
stocks or bonds which he does not
actually own at the time he sells or
pretends to sell shall be adjudged
guilty of a crime. 1t provides that
the buyer who knows that the seller
has not the property but is dealing
in futures shall be equally guilty. In
short, it puts this particular form OF
gambling in the same legal position
that other forms occupy. No one can
estimate the fortunes, the regulations,
the lives that the enactment and en-
forcement of such law would save.
The mere maintenance of the appa-
ratus for this gambling in futures
costs $1S0,O00,O00. That is what the
people pay out without getting any
return. If this special session of con-
gress would put in its spare time
while not busy on the tariff in max
ing similar national legislation to that
attempted in Illinois and the presi-
dent would endorse it, they would
atone for any past delinquencies,
rouse the public to a frenzy of enthu-
siasm and assure the continuance of
the republican party in power Tor
many years. Why not try? 1t will
come eventually, anyway.
