That was Mr.. Rockefeller" the
driver replied.
Small children frequently ride on their

Children love Mr.. Rockefeller.
Last month Fred Galley. secretary of
the Cleveland Automobile Club, went
driving with Mr.. Rockefeller. On their
way back from Rocky river score of
little girls came scampering out of a
red schoolhouse. Mr. Rockefeller ordered
the car stopped. The little girls climbed
on board and were given a ride. Each
was taken home.
Deaf to the calls of business and en-
joying every hour in the twenty-four of
every day. Mr.. Rockefeller is none the
less keenly alive to financial, social and
economic conditions.
Mr.. Rockefeller is great believer in
the right kind Of philanthropy.

to give men regular work. Work. plenty
Of 1t, honest work, is cure for all ills.
The useless giving OF money where it
does temporary good is worse than pow

In speaking of corporations and the
growing tendency of some people to dis
trust them, he said:
The popular suspicion Of corporations
will in time be corrected by the good
sober sense of the people. We must
trust to that. It must in good time be
perceived by all that the centralized cor
poration is necessity of progress.
There has been this substantial basis
for popular suspicion: there have been
i'll managed and even immorally managed
corporations. But it is poor logic to
find against the whole idea of corpora
tions because of these few failures
THE attitude of many toward corpora
tions is not as friendly as it should be.
l attribute this to the same causes that
act to oppose every step of advance.

How many of his critics would suppose
that Mr.. Rockefeller is a socialist in
sense? Yet it is true. Here is another
revelation. unfolding new phase of the
many-sided character of this man:
=
We are all socialists in a sense" says
Mr.. Rockefeller. I'VE understand that
all men are bound together in vital
relationships from which there is no
escape. No man liveth unto himself
The interests OF one are the interests
of all. But the error of socialism is
in supposing that YOU can create by
formal enactment what must be a

talk of political revolutions has been
rampant since i was boy.
1.-The country is all right. There is
nothing wrong with our government, but
something is radically wrong from time
to time with the men who administer it.
Evolution and progress will make this
country the ideal republic in time, braced
and supported by a government of wise
men who will be strong enough to turn
a deaf ear to the rantings and rawlings
of reformers, well meaning but pathet-

war with Mexico be humane step and
would the government be justified in
sacrificing thousands of lives and spend
ing millions of dollars in restoring order
there?''
A deep light that defies description
shone in Mr.. Rockefeller's eyes. He
stopped and resting on his golf stick
looked into the future. 1t was an i'm
pressive moment.
WAR is always to be avoided he said,
simply. Avoided whenever other means
can succeed. The situation in Mexico is
unfortunate to degree. No one man or

They have issued the following state

men and city police are working three
shifts of eight hours each. We South

are the smallest paid men in the de-

NOTED RIDERS WILL BE SEEN

FOR THE WEEK.

Patrons of the Fairmont fair, Au-
gust 25-2s, are going to get to see
some motorcycle racing. 1t will not
be on the racing oval however but in
a motordome which has been booked
for the week. Some noted riders are
coming and this sport promises to be
fine.
Owing to the speed reached by tho
little machines and the danger Of in
iuries 10 patrons, motorcycle racing
has been barred from the local track
since the fair was established.
There are so many enthusiasts In
the Fairmont section that the man
'agement of the fair this year decided
to have such racing but will confine
1t to the motordrome which is said
to be one OF the largest and finest
portable tracks in the country.
This will be one of the many mover
features offered at the big fair this
summer.
