STANDARD OIL DEFENCE BY

.........MA. ROCKEFELLER,______

The autobiography of the richest man in the world, John D. Rockefeller, the Standard Oil King, begins in the October number of the "World's Work," published September 25.

The interest of the introductory article lies in the attempts of Mr. Rockefeller to justify the methods of the Standard Oil Trust.

The poor. fellows subacqueally fall in the war against Montenegro, leaving their English medair, an willing bequest, to an enemy who love glory better than gold.

"Since the days of their national bero, Stefan, who died in 1499, Montenegro has been a land of war against the Turks, and with whatever Lemporary check always victorious in defence of their liberties. Sometimes the Turks got

It is absolutely reliable and effective in Blood Impurities Nervous Dyspepsia, Wasting Conditions, Melancholy, Chlorosis, Impaired Nutrition, Scrofula, Low Vitality, and all troubles of the Throat and Lungs.

"We did not ruthlessly go after the trade of our competitors and attempt to ruin it by cut-pany, Limited, at Kowloon, and West Point Ling prices or instituting a spy system. We had set ourselves the task of building up as rapidly and as broadly as possible the volume of consumption.

"We had to create selling methods far. in. advance of what then existed; we had to dispose of two, or three, or four gatipus of oil where one had been sold before, and we could not rely upon the usual trade channels then existing to accomplish this. It was never our purpose to interfere with a dealer who adequately cukivat- ed his field of operations, but when we saw a new opportunity or a new place for extending the sale by further and effective facilities we made it our business to provide them."

TOO LATE TO ARGUE.

"It is too late to argue about the advantages of industrial combinations. They are a seces. sity," Mr, Rockefeller urges.

"Berend question there is a suspicion of cor. porations. There may be reason for such sus picion very often; for, a corporation may be moral or immoral, just as a mau may be moral or the reverse; but it is folly to condemn all corporations because some are bad, or even to be unduly suspicious of all because some are -bad.
