Soda in DYE Water.

If you are going to dye any material
at home, dissolve a pinch OF bicarbonste
Of soda in the water in which you make
the dye, says the Washington Herald.
This will prevent the color from crock
ing and will insure its covering the ma
terial evenly.
II you cannot buy the shade you wish,
it can easily be mixed. For instance,
mix blue with pink TO make violet, a
little yellow with green to make moss
color, black with ecru for yellow smoke,
and so on.
Be sure to rinse the material very
well with cold water before hanging to
dry after dyeing. Press while damp.

The Strange Argument
Of General Gr0SVen0r.

He served the Oil Trust in the
house of congress, and openly
acted and argued to their advan-
tage. In an article in The indie
pendent, entitled Concentration
of Wealth a Safety to the State, -
General Grosyenor advanced the
peculiar argument that while a
wide distribution of wealth was
desirable, that distribution was
attained proftably if the few who
owned the wealth were sufficient
ly scattered over the country.
Says General Grosvenor:
A great manufacturing cor
poration with branches through
out the states of the Union and
widely distributed, is as complete
and perfect a distribution of
wealth as would be the distribu-
ton Of the money value Of the
stock Of the corporation in the
hands Of the persons interested in
its promotion

Corruption Money
From Criminal Trusts.

The Standard Oil letters make
if fairly clear that the corruption
money for use in this and similar
debauched elections came from
criminal corporations, but it came
INTO the bags held by political
bosses and public officials who
represented the criminal corpora
tons. It was then distributed to
debauch the electorate and the
legislature.
There can be no doubt that it
was distributed with the full
knowledge and direction Of the
political bosses and the public Of
fials who were at the same time
the political and financial agents
or the trusts.
The point of dominant import
9nce in these articles, however, is
mot the character Of Senator Han

No Doubt the Elephant
Received Its Reward.

What a close and friendly re-
lationship between the hunter and
his pet elephant. How hunter
Archbold pats his pet elephant on
his scaly back and appreciates his
kind and friendly attitude. .
How hunter Archbold smoothes
the thick skin of his pet elephant
and thanks him for his courtesy
in bringing any such matter to
our attention y
Undoubtedly the elephant re-
ceived its reward in a more sub
stantial way, too, for betraying its
own kind and delivering them to
the hunter. Whether the hunter
felt secret contempt for so
traitorous an elephant or not, he
nevertheless could not but value
beyond expression the elephant S
/" kind and friendly attitude. =
Always anxious to invest the
Standard Oils money proftably
in public officials was John D.
ArchbOld, purchasing agent of the
trust, never failing to get good re-
turns on his investment in the way
of public favors and special privi-
leges, running the government at
Washington from the Standard
Oil headquarters at No 26 Broad
way, reaching out for senator's
and congressman, for Democrats
and Republicans alike, through
his paid political agents, killing
laws that the trusts objected to,
promoting measures that would
be Of benefit to the trust, reward
ing all faithful public officials
with secret certificates of deposit.
A busy man was John d. Arch
bold.
When we have John D. Arch
bold and legislatures and con-
gress subsidized by John D. Arch
bold, what is the use of state and

cessity of the citizens paying pub

by Mr. Hearst as a wretched lit
tie political spy introduced into

Joseph c. Sibley. congressman
from Pennsylvania, was a sort of
trained elephant for the Standard
Oil. He was always on the look
out for other congressman and
senators who could be captured.
He reported such facts promptly
to hunter Archbold, and then took
the assignment to decoy the public
officials into the Standard Oil
stockade at No. 26 Broadway.
Read the following letter from
Archbold to Sibley:
26 Broadway, New York,
January 10, 1902
Dear Mr. Sibley:
am duly in receipt of your
favor of the 10th, in all of which
we are much interested. We ap-
preciate your courtesy in bring
ing any such matter to our atten-
ton, and value, beyond expires
sion, your kind and friendly atti-

With reference to our Ohio
friend, our feelings are most cor

g hand in a reasonable way. HOW
WOULD TT DO FOR YOU TO
SAY TO HIM THAT SUG-
GESTED THAT HE SEE ME

with our mutual friend Sibley,
which you will understand, and
he has suggested that I go in per-
son to see you. 1t is exceedingly
difficult for me to get away from
here by reason of my local cam
paign, but if you think it neces-
sary will come to New York,
but if I do, could I see you on Sun
day, the 9th of October? / must
make hurried dash to New York
and back, and / would like very
much to meet you, if it is possible,
at your residence on the morning
of Sunday.
Could you meet the emergen-
cies just as we'll without my com
ing to New York? I think you
will understand it, as you know I
have come to you for friends,
but never for myself, and now
there is great necessity at home.
I am not complaining of the gen
eral tendency of my campaign, but
it is most burdensome, and one
that requires the utmost care and
the utmost ability to meet great
emergencies. There are 10000
coal miners in this district, and
there are seven counties, stretch
ing from the Ohio river on the
south to within twelve miles of
Columbus on the north, and cover
ing about 45 per cent Of the coal
output of Ohio. You can see
something of what 1 have got on
my hands, with state committee
unable to assist anybody and a
fight all myself alone practically.
Now, if it is best for me to come
to New York, please say you will
see me as suggested.
Yours truly,
G. H. Grosvenor.

More Letters From and to
ArchboId, Of the Standard Oil
Trust, Further Showing How
Legislation Can Be Bought.

Legislation Can Be Bought.
Whenever revelat j o n S
come to the public, showing
how legislators sell their
trusts for cash, they are
eagerly read.
The amazing betrayal Of
the people by U. S. senators
and minor officials, elected
to serve the people, as set
forth in black and white by
the publication of the Stand
ard Oil letters, has awaken
ed the nation to a corrup-
ton never before proved.
In HEARsT's MAGA-
ZINE for June new and
startling letters show the
methods of the Oil Trust in
buying legislators and legis-
latures. They continue the
astounding story told in the
May number.
The following are a few
excerpts from the wealth of
material in the JUNE
NUMBER.
1t is difficult to believe that the
man who was holding the bag
into which corporations like the
Standard Oil Company were drop
ping certificates of deposits for
the purpose of controlling legisla-
lures and courts and American
politics generally, should have
been seriously considered as a can
didate for president Of the United
States. Such was the fact, how
ever, after Hanna s boughten vic
tory in Ohio in 1903. The condi-
ton Of Hanna s health was in all
probability the one thing that kept
him from permitting his name to
be used
Nathan b. Scott, Of West Vir-
ginia, another Standard Oil sena-
tor had, before the tragedy that
placed Roosevelt in the white
house, announced himself for
Hanna as the next candidate of
the Republican party
The possibility of nominating
Hanna was discussed favorably
with Archbold by several of the
Oil Trust s paid politicians, and
there was a strong sentiment for
him among the Wall Street oppo-
nents of progressive politics.
After Hanna S death, Gunton S
Magazine, which was subsidized
by the Oil Trust, said Of him:
In the death of Senator Hanna
the nation has lost one of its fore
most statesmen, the Republican
party has lost its greatest leader
and the labor movement has lost a
powerful friend and co-operator. "
Now that some of Hanna S let
tiers to Archbold have been made
public, posterity will be able to
Judge for itself as to whether or
not Hanna was money-bag
politician. Posterity may also be
able to guess with considerable
accuracy whether Hanna s cleo
ton by the largest majority ever
given to a United States senator
in the Republican state of Ohio"
was due to a change in popular
sentiment, or whether it was due
10 change distributed recklessly

ment. In order to prove that con-
troll, it became necessary to pub
lish these letters Of Senator Hanna
and Foraker and of Archbold,
There are other letters in this Oil
Trust correspondence with other
senators to show how widespread
was the conspiracy against popu
lar government
We shall now see that the trusts
paternal interest in Ohio politics
extended also to Ohio s represen-
tation in the lower house of con
gress. Note this letter to General
GrosvenOr:
&c Broadway, New York,
October IL, 1900.
