HOW BILLIONA1RES ARE MADE

The present price of Standard Oil stock shows
John D. Rockefeller to be worth $2027 900 600. Mr.
Rockefeller has been in the field as bread-w
for about so years. The men who started with him,
and who doepended industry and economy to
keep up with him, in order to do so would have had
to have earned and saved about $40 100000 year
for half century.
That was manifestly impossible. None of them
did Neither did Mr.. Rockefeller. Yet he has
two billions How did he get it7 Since he could
not possibly have earned it, he must have got it
from some who did. Consequently at lot of work
ers whose combined wealth should now be at least
$4,000 100000, are short that amount. And there
is no mystery about how it happened.
AS stockholders in the Standard Oil Company,
Mr.. Rockefeller enjoyed certain unfair advantages
conferred upon him by law. He has monopoly of
rights OF way for pipe lines. It does not matter
how much ability, energy or money others may
have. They are barred by the government from
constructing pipe lines to compete with Mr. Rookie
feller's. And if they us ehs pipe lines they must
submit to his terms. Mr. Rockefeller received spe-
cial rates from the railroads which were denied his
competitors. The railroad corporations had the
monopoly of rights Of way conferred by the gov
eminent: That shut out all others. Rockefeller
got the benefit ftheir monopoly.
Holding this monopoly on strips Of the EARTH
Rockefeller can get his material for as little
as producers be induced to accept and sell his
finished product for all that the traffic will BEAR
He has other privileges from the government be-
sides that of monopolizing land. For instance, he
has tariff privileges. This does not consist in
tariff oil, but in manipulation of tariff legis-
laton so that he obtain supplies free of duty,
while small competitors must pay duty. Thus there
is tariff on STEEL which increases the cost of steel
containers made in the United States But the law
provides that the duty paid on these be returned
when they are shipped from the country in big
enough quantities. So the large shipper the Stand
ard Oil Company, can get remission of import du-
ties. The small shipper can not
This does not complete the list of privileges
which have enabled one man to get in a lawful
manner two billions Of wealth produced by other
people. But there is enough to explain why we
have paupers and millionaires in this country Why
not end the system?

MEXICAN RULE
NmI ii Zu xuu
o. -..yEs
UNDER D|Az

Free preaching and reading was
forbidden completely; all newspapers
and books, even scientific works, were
censored; and the works OF foreign
democratic reformers, including
Henry George, could not be sold In
Mexico. A complete Machiavellfsm
was in existence and the Dfaz sys-
tenn represented a modern edition OF
the criminal tyranny of Caesar Bor"
gia. But the coterie which SUR
rounded Diaz aimed to please foreign
ers, the purchasers of public bonds
and of the natural resources stolen
from the nation or from the natives.
In order to maintain the myth Of
Diaz (The Mexican Struggle for Free
dom, by G. de Lara e. Pichon, United
states) the foreign press was prodig-
ally subsidized, both at home and
abroad; and this was done 50 skill
fully, that many of the & reigners re-
siding here, even at the present date,
echo the declaration of Terry, (Guide-
book for Mexico, by T. P. Terry,
Mexico, D. F.). inspired by self-inter-
est, that "Porfirio Diaz was the most
eminent Mexican
The final result OF hunger, oppres-
sion, ignorance, and vice, fostered by
unlimited land monopoly, was the So
cial Revolution of 1910. This revolt
was much more far-reaching and vio-
lent than any of its predecessors, due
to the participation of the free In
dams in it. In former struggles, the
latter had shown but little interest;
but the spoilation of which they were
made victims with regard to the
"egidos' (commons), especially since
1893, had reduced them from the
class of self-supporting owners OF
land to that of landless indigents.
And, therefore, they rose by the thou
sands when the image of Diaz, though
covered with a coat of mail, was
smashed to pieces by the onset of Ma
dero. The President-martyr did not
originate the Revolution. whatever
unreflecting people may think; he
was merely the Apostle who gave ex-
preston to the suffering and the as
plratlons of the oppressed masses.

PSYCHOLOGY.

Last week we said something about psychology.
we also printed statement from Ebert H. Gary
president OF the Steel Corporation to the effect that
we need never worry about war with JAPAN
That is an example Of psychologizine
just now you never think of the possibility of
war with Japan But after Mr.. Gary and others
like him have made similar statements for few
years. you Will begin to take it seriously The next
step is to prepare for such war; And that will be
the beginning of the end
1t there is never any need or possibility Of war
with Japan why does Mr. Gary insist upon bringing
up the subject? He has been making statements Of
that kind for the last several years.
Perhaps we do Mr.. Gary an injustice; perhaps
these statements are due to the questions of over
jealous reporters
But in the light Of Mr.. Gary's connection with
the armor and munitions crowd to whose interests a
taste. ~

WOODSTOCK
TYPEWRITER
STRIKE
(By the Strike Committee.)


WOODSTOCK, ILL.,, Nov. 9.-The
strike is nearing the er of the third
month and the polishers eport that
this unfair firm has been forced to
place agents on the road to stall off
disaster to their rapidly declining
trade, owing to the strike, which has
been and is yet being advertised
broadcast throughout the country.
Over fifteen hundred typewriters
are piled in the storeroom Of this COM
pany, owing to the deadly grip the
strike has on the sales OF this ma
chine, a fitting rebuke to this labor
hating firm who forced the scab into
the breach, after the union men re-
fused unjust hours and conditions to
cheaper this machine so it could be
sold on the premium basis, and new
model machine which will soon be
placed on the market with the aid of
travelling agents, Is the one and only
hope of this company to regain lost
ground. "The American people love
to be humbugged," will now be the
motto and adage of this company, who
are now placing agents on the road to

can merchant and professional men
as well, in the vain hope Of deluding
the public everywhere in order to Gre
ate demand and make sales of their
scab-polished typewriter, while hover
ing over these pretensions of this COM
pany floats the strike of 18 union pol
ishers, who only asked for what all
other typewriter factories long since
have granted their polishers-the
nine-hour day with a revision Of
prices. No increase was asked for
whatever.
Look out for this agent, Mr.. Mer-
chant and Professional Man; he will
call upon you soon: he l. sent out as
feeler; he will tell you there is no
strike on, to hold his job, to sell you
a scab-polishe typewrite:., and when
ne does ask him this question: "Why
Is the Woodstock Typewriter Company
hostile to union labor?" Answer:
Because the boss hates unionism and
mas operated scab shops before this

WHERE DID HE GET IT?

John D. Rockefellers fortune, now estimated at
more than two billions is more than the estimate
OF the United States Government Of the total wealth
in any one Of the following States: Arizona Della
ware, Maine mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New
Hampshire, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, New Mexico,
North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Caro-.
lima, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, wy
oming, or the Distric tof Columbia It is about
equal to the wealth of the following States COM
bined: Arizona, Delaware, Nevada New Mexico
and Wyoming. Has Mr.. Rockefeller done more for
society than the population of each one of these
States?
If not, why does society allow conditions to ex-
list that made it possible for him to take what others
make?

SHAME!

On Wednesday morning, when the News Tribune
thought that Mr.. Hughes was elected, they printed
an attack upon President Wilson. The pa per prob
ably went to press at two clock in the morning at
a time when Republicans absolutely certain
of victory: Victors always supposed to be gen.
eroqs, kind and forgiving to their vanquished foes
Yet the News Tribune printed one of the most
slanderous, unkind, ungenerous articles ever
printed about president Of the United States.
The editorial is only another blot upon the news
paper world, blot that is kept company by many
another one, placed there by this very same News
Tribune
