BELV1DERE. KANS., Jan. S.-"That
brother Of mine John D. Rockefeller, is
the most lonesome man in all the world;
there is no man who walks the earth
that he can call his real friend" Frank
Rockefeller, Of Belvidere. Cleveland and
New York is quoted as saying.
Rockefeller is spending some time at
his big ranch near here, where he comes
every winter for a few weeks vacation.
He is a brother of John d. and William
Rockefeller who has been leading the
government a chase which has now
ended, as a witness, and was for twenty
years general field man for Standard
oil His 15,G00-acre ranch in this
county is called "Rockefeller's million
dollar plaything."
I'D rather live on a 150-acre West
en homestead, With a homesteaders
usual fare, than live like John d, does in
| his palaces. Hes the most lonesome
man on the face of the earth. He can
call no man friend, continued Frank
Rockefeller
Says John o. Is Ost acized.
John D." he is quoted as remark
ing. has been rcegated to the back
ground BY all the big business men with
whom he once did business. None of
them will have anything to do with him
They don't like his way of doing bust
ness.
Anyway. brother William is worth
50 per cent more money than John d.
is. nut people don't know it. John d.
hasn't reinvested his money for many
years and is practically out of the game,
He has the income of his investments,
but nothing more William invests and
reinvests. and today is worth one-half
again as much as John D."

THE STRUGGLE.

The world is engaged in a tremen-
dous commercial warfare. writes John
A. Sleicher in Leslie's. Every coun-
try is trying to build the biggest in
dustries the biggest battleships and
the strongest army.
The skill and industry of American
workmen and the courage Of American
capitalists have created some of the
largest and most successful business
enterprises in the world. What has
been the result? The highest scale OF
wages paid anywhere. Wages SO high
that millions Of toilers from other
lands, every year. come thousands of
miles across land and sea to get foot
hold in this favored country.
National prosperity would be contin-
uous If the demagogue had not ap-
peared with a demand that we should
penalixe success. The people of the
country have foolishly listened to
these demagogues. One after another,
great industrial institutions have been
attacked as public evils. The people
were promised a lower cost Of living
If combinations could be destroyed.
Everybody knows that competition is
more expensive than combination. The
people are learning the truth. They
find that the cost of living Is higher

tons were destroyed.

Great corporations exist in all other

TO SAVE MILLIONS.

There IL no greater virtue than that
OF being provtdent in the management
OF private or public business, but it liz
easy to be mistaken as to the method.
Keeping the navy up to a high stand
ard is extensive. but to permit the
navy to slip back until it would be of
little value as q means Of defense,
would cost more in the end. A few
congressman are aiding a movement to
accept the British suggestion of a
naval holiday" They forget that the
United States navy has dropped
back in relative standing. They over
look the fact that the Churchill plan,
even IL accepted by all other nations,
would suspend operations after the
completion Of ships now on the ways.
They do not take into consideration
that after the holiday Great Britain,
Germany and several other nations
would have made q tremendous gain on
the United States. And more impor-
tant, they forget that war is a thou
sand-fold more expensive than being
prepared. In the face of prevailing
conditions 1t fs risky not to keep on
preparing. Great Britain is growing
at the United States; Germany il in a
snarling humor, and there are intima-
lions that other nations have their eyes
on US. Instead Of talking disarmament
1t Is better that we keep on preparing
for eventualities.-Pittsbu Post.
