J Who Cave the Campaign Fund for
I Koosevelt When Ho Kan Against
4 Parker and What the Heads of the
* Corporations Cot for Giving Tlireer
fourths of It.
Some rlcli and racy things are being
brought out beioro the congressiunal
coiiiiniLteo appointed to investigate
campaign lunds .John D. Archbold'o
statement that the Standard
Oil Company contributed $100,000
to iMr. Roosevelt's campaign fund in
, 1004 was confirmed by George R.
' Sheldon, who succeeded Cornelius N.
Llliss as treasurer of the Republican
national committee.
Not only did tho Standard Oil
company give $100,000 to elect 'Mr.
Roosevelt president, but J. Pierpont
Morgan & Co. gave $100,000, H. C.
Flick gave $1 00,000 and George
Gould icavo another $100,000. Mr.
Sheldon testified that 73 1-2 per cent.
| of Mr. Roosevelt's total campaign
und was contributed by corporations.
Naturally these people gave their
money freely to tho Roosevelt cam|
paign fund. Testifying that ho had
contributed $150,000 to tho Roosevelt
campaign fund in 1004 because
, he was "especially interested", Ms.
| .t. P. Morgan added, "the only interr
est v o had was in the welfare of the
| public."
Mr. Morgan emphasized his dovoion
to Mr. Roosevelt's political fortunes
by the further statement that
1 P. Morgan & Co.'s usual contribuj
iioo to Republican campaign funds
was only $100,000; that Jie never
heard of any donation by his firm to
tho Democrats; that when 'Mr. Taft
was a candidate in 1003 the sum sub|
scribed was $3 0,000 and that this
year neither he nor his banking house
1 had subscribed a dollar.
To grasp these pregnant facts we
. have only to recall a little modern
. history. In 1 904 Mr. Roosevelt had
. his bureau of corporations in working
order. Mr. Cortelyou, lately in
control of it as secretary of commerce
and labor, had been made chairman
i of tho national Republican committee.
IIo and Cornelius N. Rliss,
, treasurer, were collecting money. As
noArcrn T? SllfnPS
, sor says, 13 1-3 per cent, of the
, funds received came from the menaced
corporations.
If we do not find in these disclo.
sures a sufficient explanation of J. P.
Morgan & Co.'s "especial interest" in
Mr. Roosevelt's election, it is possible
that later events may reveal it.
Mr. Roosevelt never prosecuted J. P.
( Morgan & Co.'s steel trust. He emphatically
stopped the proceedings in!
stituted by others against J. P. Morgan
& Co.'s harvester trust. When
the panic of 1907 was at its height
lie turned the resources of the treasury
over to J. P. Morgan & Co., who
used them and made money and reputation
by the process.
Ho met Gary and Prick, representing
J. P. Morgan & Co.'s steel
trust, before breakfast one morning
and licensed them, in violation of
law, to absorb the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company, thus giving .J. P.
. Morgan & Co.'s steel trust a monopoI.
of high grade iron ore. He put Mr.
:!acon, a partner of J. P. Morgan &
'o. into the state department and the
diplomatic service. He made Hororrt
Batterlee, .1. P. Morgan's son-inlaw,
assistant secretaiy of the navy.
In a letter to Attorney General
Banaparte he testified feelingly to the
virtues of the "Morgan interests
which have been so friendly to us."
Never before was the "public welfare"
so cheaply protected. The
' Morgan interests" are not confined
10 J. P. Morgan & Co. by any mean,
'be Morgan interests comprehend lifo
insurance companies, banks and trust!
ompanies, railroads and manufacturing
enterprises.
If the parent house Increased its
rr>p ii i m r Ponuhlican contribution in
1904 because of its "especial interest"
we may easily imagine that the
policy was widely imitated by affiliated
corporations amJ individuals.
Perhaps in this almost unexampled
favor by the Morgan interests we.
shall find an explanation of the
Roosevelt, administration hostility to
the Standard Oil interests, which
have not always agreed with J. P.
.Morgan & Co. concerning "the welfare
of the public".
It may he that the senate committee
will he able to throw more light

Secretary, and J. Hoyd Evans, an attorney
ot Columbia, who spoke oil
two occasions in Spartanburg County
in thu interests ol' the candidacy
of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, tailed to
arouse a great amount of enthusiasm.
.Meetings were held in Spartanburg
and also at lniuan, and attentive audiences
heard the speakers at both
places.
it is a significant fact that W. P.
Heard, who during the recent memorial
political campaign in South
Carolina acted as the personal body
guard of Governor Please, lias been
elected and has accepted the position
of secretary of the new party in this
State. In a recent statement, however,
Mr. lieard stated that ho was
still the staunch supporter of the
G'ovornor, and iwo years hence would '
be found working for the election of
Please to the United States Senate,
as the Governor will nialo the race
against Senator E. 1). Smith.
Mr. Beard said, in a signed statement:
"After we have placed our
own Cole in the Senate, myself and
others of his friends will seek for
him a higher place still, and it is my

more than pleased at the cordial re-'
ception accorded us in the "City o<

manifested in this new white man's
party in your intelligent community.
And when Teddy is elected, as I
confidently expect, and Spartanburg
needs a friend, just remember that

and that while I with Teddy, "stand

"stand by my friends."
MILITARY STOPS GAMIIMXO.
Governor Marshal Uses Militia to
Urcnk Up Races.
The Mineral Springs race track a'
Porter, lnd., is in the hands of Indiana
state troops with orders from
Governor Thomas R. Marshall to
stop the races. The troops arrived
at the race track with three days'
rations. Alleged gambling on the
races was the cause of the governor's
action.
Three companies of militia took
charge of the track after it liad been
decided by the owners of the course
to make an attempt to run the races.
When the horses appeared for the
first race, they were halted by the
soldiers, with fixed bayonets, and the
races were called off.
The troops also halted all spectators
as they appeared at the gates.
Those that entered before the troops*
arrived were detained in the enclosure
for more than an hour. In the
number were about fifty women.
A conference of owners considered
court proceedings to restrain the governor
from further interference, hut
a final decision was not reached.
With the advent of the troops many
horsemen began shipping their stablea
away.

on this point, but it can hardly add
anything to the scandal of the Morgan-Roosevelt
alliance. It was Mr.
Roosevelt who opened up to J. P.
Morgan & Co. tho possibilities of government
by big business. It was Mr.
Roosevelt who persuaded J. T\ Morgan
& Co. to plunge deeply Into politics.
It. was Mr. Roosevelt, who, consulting
"the public welfare," registered
tho decrees of J. P. Morgan &
Co. in tho White House.
Not until iMr. Roosevelt had lost
control of the Republican machinery
and the law providing for publicity
of car^aign contributions had gone
Into etlect did J. P. Morgan &. Co.
disappear from tho list of regular,
contributors to tho colossal corruption
funds of tho Republican party. ,
