THANKTG|V|NG SERVICE

A Union Thanksgiving Service will be held at the Christian Church Nov. 27th at 7p m, ser mon by Rev. B. A. Few, pastor, of M. E. Church South.
 For number of years it has been the custom of the churches of Prescott to hold a Union Ser vice on Thanksgiving day. On account of the custom of the peo- pie to make this day a family re- union day, an evening service was considered to be a better plan and on Thanksgiving, 1912 it was held at 2 D m in the Presby- terian church and the attendance was large, and splendid meet ing was the result. The mem bers of the churches together with the people concluded it was a better plan than a morning service and agreed to continue holding services at night.

IS STANDARD OIL DISSOLVED /?

Upon the very day that the Standard Oil
Company announced stock dividend of 400 pei
cent, Attorney general McReynolds decided that
the alleged dissolution of the giant corporation
has been a farce Possibly there is no connec
ton between the two occurrences, but certainly
Standard Oils history since President Taft and
George W. Wickersham beneyolently approved
the dissolution plans shows no signs that the
Sherman antitrust law has seriously interfered
with the profitable conduct Of business.
The company that declared Yesterdays diyi-
dend is nOminally the Standard Oil Company of
New York and nominally also one of the former
subsidiaries of the big trust. According to At
torney general Wickersham it is in reality an in
tegral part of the old Standard Oil Company
whose bulk, profits and conduct have furnished
themes for many a stump speaker.
The Standard Oil Company of New York has
capital stock of $15000,OOO. 1t will now be
increased to $40, 100000, the stock dividend be-
ing made payable on June Is. This is the third
stock dividend that subsidiaries of the former
Oil Trust have announced within week. The
Standard Oil Company of Nebraska has an
nounced a stock dividend of 25 per cent and the
South Penn Company has increased its stock by
a similar method 800 per cent
Originally the capital stock of the Standard,
Oil Company of New York was $5,O00,O00. In
1892 it was increased to 81 0O0 900 and ten years
ago to $15,O0O,OO0 The company's surplus at
the end of last year was in of 5,0OO, OOO
1t had merchandise on hand of $41 100000, and
cash and bills receivable of $21 96S 900, against
which there we're ACCOUNTS Pagable of 6,OOO,-
600 and floating debt of $3,653, 900.
Dividends of only per cent were paid dur
ing 1912, but the company's floating debt was
reduced from nearly $16,0OO.OO0 to below ST.
OOO, 900, it's earnings being applied to that pur-
pose Beside announcing the purpose OF a 400.
per cent dividend, the company declared cash
dividend of sc share, payable June 16.
There is no doubt that the three announce
ments of stock dividends, coming so close to-.
gether, has lent color to Attorney general Nc
Reynolds's suspicious. Having seen the work
ing of Understands trust-busting machine from
the inside, the new attorney general ought to be
quite able to battle with the Oil octopus and cut
off its tentacles. so they will stay cut off.

PATRONIzED BY

! Honolulu'S new library, made posi-
BILE by gifts of Andrew Carnegie and
four months ago, is making a
remarkable record in service to the

/ Edna Allyn, the librarian, which show
! how rapidly the membership cards are

lecture hall was used three times for

in the reference department.
In December, 1912, the Honolulu Liz

the last meeting of the Honolulu Lii
brary board it was voted that the
books thus received should be loaned
to the Library of Hawaii on the same
conditions as those loaned by the
agreement of May 10, 1909. During
April this collection of 1913 volumes
was catalogued and made available.

AN ANSWER TO WAR.TALK

AS preventive of war, lack of armies and ar
mament is nothing compared to lack of financial
resources
Japan's wardebt, according to latest statis-
tics, is such that the average laborer must de-
vote one months wages each year solely to the
interest on the Japanese liabilities of $1,271,-
$4,000. Japan's bonds are selling below par
and she would find it exceedingly difficult to
borrow should war with the United States break
out
