HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY.JULY 10, 1006
MORE MILLIONS
THAN YEARS OLD
John L). Rockefeller wag 67 yean
old July 8. Mr. Hooketeller is at
present enjoyiHK bin Drat holiday
abroad apparently not worrying over
Preuidnat Kooeevelt'a threatened in
teutiuu to pioecute the Standard Oil
company for violations of tbe anti
trust lawn. According to cabled re
ports Mr. Uockufeler saya he baa had
uo couoction with the Standard Oil
company tor the past twelve years.
He will sail for home, however, with
in tbe next ten days and will be here
iu ample time to look after tbe inter
eats of tbe great mouopoly of which
he waa tbe creator and tbe principal
benetluiai y.
Inasmuch as the supreme crisis In
Mr. Rockefeller's affairs came in 1875,
when b was iu desperate straights
and owned vastly more than he could
pay if forced by His creditors, the
solid growth of bis present vast for
tune, whether it be a billion, as some
assert, or only bait as much, should
be considered a matter of only about
thirty years three short decades.
Yet be is undoubtedly tbe richest man
in tbe United States, possibly In tbe
whole world. The growth of tbn
Rockefellers interests, tbe evolution
of tbe Standard Oil company, its var
iegated history, the railroad rebates
upon which it throve and waxed fat,
tbe tierce wars made upon it by tbe
state aud national otticials, the indict
ment of its oilicers iu Texas a few
years ago, attempt on tbe part of the
state of Kansas to compete with it,
tbe campaign waged against it by the
state of Missouri, its extension to ev
ery continent and, how it has made
scores ot millionaires, these things
have been tbe subject of more ephem
eral and permanent literature, pio
bably, than any other business enter
prise since tbe world began.
At G7 years of age Jobu D. Rocke
feller is estimated to be worth $0X10,
000,000, aecoordiut to the figures of
careful investigators. Last year Mr.
Rockefeller was worth 1502,000,000,
showing a gain for tun present year of
818,000,000. Iu lSWObehad only $400,
000,000, and in tbe year before that be
was poorer still, 250,000,000 represent
ing bis total wealth. Iu 18 he bad
8100,100,000, in 1875 15,000,000, and in
the yeai before tbat be was virtually
bankrupt.
When tbe huge snowball of Rocke
feller's present fortune of 8000,000,000
rolls down tbe years, gatbereing as it
goes, tbe wealth of former Midases
will appear as mere competencies.
His income this year as abovA stated,
is estimated at 848,000,000. This 1.
84,010,000 a month, 8104,380 a day,
84,088 an hour, 8114.10 a minute, $1.92
a second. Aud this is foi every seoond
of the year., The oaluoulation for
thirty-three years Mi. Rockefeller's
physioian says lie has every prospeot
of living to be 100 years old is start
ling, if his millions continue to in
crease at tbe present rale, Mr. Rocke
feller at the age of 100 years will be
worth about 8'-!r,O0O,000,C00. This is
almost three times as much gold and
silver us there is in calculation, in
banks aud iu all the treasure houses
aud mints on earth.
something to crow over. Sometimes
they are never had.

President Koosevelt to
Vast Sum For Reclamation.
Washington, July 17. The half cen
tury mark is gradually being attained
by tbe national reclpmaticn fund. To
day, upon close study of h's books, an
rilioial at the interior department an
nounced that the fund bad reached
the enormous total of $337,076,000.
About 85,500,000 wes added to the
fund during the fiscal year ended
June 30 from the sale of publio lauds.
Asked to explain tbe increase over
lust year this ollicial snid:
"The department has restored to
entry over 1,000,000 pcres of lend that
had been withdraw! from entry under
the reclamation act to.' examination.
As soon as u pioject is declared un
feasible the laud is restored to entry.
In that nay much laud has been
t hi own open to tbe homeseeker and
mtuy dollars added to tbe reclama
tion fund.
"Tliero is an expected balance ol
little more than $2,000,000 iu the
fund, but, according to my informant,
no new projects will be taken np foi
tbe time being indeed, not until the
returns are received from some of tbe
projec?s iu Arizona, New Mexioo aud
Nevada, tbat aie about completed."
Another source of great worry to
the reclamation service has been the
labor problem, according to this
ollicial. Wages are high and labor is
scarce. This combination, it is said,
has used the department to revise a
few of its estimates iu building irti
cation projects in the west. Should
this situation continue much longer
it is feared that work under the Carey
act will come to a standstill iu a few
mure years.
BY THE WAY
PrtprietoiB of vegetarian restan
rants are making so much money
these dni. tbat tbey do not b ve
time to diue at them themselves.
Now the stockyards washes its face
every day for tbe beneUt ot tbe visit
iug public.
Alfonso is kinging in a low tone of
voice these days. Do you blame him?
"Farmer" Coburn, of Kanass, who
has declined the seat left vacant by
Senator Uurton, may have been afraid
of getting into bad company.
Everv time it is announced tbat
the president will make another
speech, the trusts all sit up and won
dor who is going to catch it next.
A few of our "captains of industry'
are coming to the conclusion that
tbey wouldn't have fared much worse
it Kutrono Debs nau oeen eieciea
president.
Senator lluiley may be a great man,
but his democratic brethren In the
senate are of the opinion that be
should "tarrv at Jericho" a while
longer.
The consumer knows right now
mho IV ill nav the cot-t of the meat in
spection.
i!.,f trusts) levelttious are de
"revolting." So is the
public.
King Alfonso is detei mined to sup
rh anarchists. The anarchist!
have tbe same intention regaiding
Altonso.
If a few more states follow Mis
souri's lead, Mi. Bryan will begin to
think again tbat the people are ' with

Carter Harrison lifts bis voice for
tbe "pee; less leBde ." Tbat other
eminent fisherman, the Hon. G rover
Cleveland has maintained an obsti
nate silence thus tar.
Secretary Root ruus a g.eat risk of
getting him elf disliked in South

Utttius your long deferred rights is
are back of
a man io bis
demand for thorough beef Inspection.
If tbe Chicago and Kansas City beat
packers are going to send out their
product across "state lines", we have
a right to know that it is tound and
their corrupt and untruthful word as
to cleanliness, and soundness is not
sutlloieut evidence. Stand by tbe
president in his great tight for not
only justice, but publio health.
Uerringtou, Kansas, married women
have organized a "searchers club,"
and they are keepiug their husbands
busy looking for new places to hide
their money.
Kven if Mr. Bryan's boom should
have no substantial result otherwise,
it may give him tbe necessaiy mater
ial for the 'Tbiid Battle." Mean
while, now is the time to subsoiibe
for tbe Commoner. One dollar per
year.
In tbe abseuoe of any i.utborative
utterance to tbe contrary it is as
sumed tbat Grandpa Gassaway DavU
looks approvingly upon the Bryan
candidacy.
Kansas appears to be preplexed with
grave doubts as to tbe propriety o
subjecting so good a man as Farmer
Coburn to association with tbe U. S.
senate.
In tbe meantime everybody of an
inquiring turn of nose, is free to go
and inspect the stockyards for himself.
To Senator - LaFollette, who has
been a vegetarian for Ave years, all
this fuss over tbe meat question seems
an absurd waste of time.
It is for Gruver Cleveland to write
a letter or submit to an interview as
to the whitherward of tbe country's
drift.
Whether or not tbe president was
animated by spite, is immaterial to
tbe consumer who wants to know what
s in the "canned chicken" aud
"potted ham" be is eating.
The beef trust evidently believes
it oau ptck anything, even juries.
At last Delaware finds herself big
enough to have two senators.
A Germau physician now Insists
tbat all ills may be cured by "hot-
air." At this distance from tbe nat
ional capital the impression prevails
that many ills are only aggravated by
tbe treat ineut.
Mr. Sousa objects to having bis
niusio repeated by phonographs. It
might, help if tbe phonographs were
equipped with a gesture attachment.

The Iruit ciop is in an excellent
