Rosenbaum) 'The year 1914 finds John Davison Rockefeller in his 76th year the most misunderstood personality in Lie world. It is the purpose of this article to show the real Rockefeller. Though he has been bitterly assailed at times, though he has been widely hated, he is really an optimist, strong in his belief in and hope for the fu- ture of his country and thus far from being the monster he has been pie- tured. Indeed the sole purpose of his life seems to be the betterment of hig country and his fellow-men. The revelation of this new Rocke- foller--new according to the popular idea--is made largely in his own words. For years the very personi- fipation of the Sphinx, the man of silence and mystery on whose li the fate of millions hung, has spok- en. Frgely and without reserve, chat- ting as if on some subject of ordin- ary import, the richest man in the world discussed his future, the fu- ture of his country, and the present Mexican trouble. ! "Mr. Rockefeller," I rémarked as we halted on a putting green in the loveliest dell in all Cuyahoga coun- ty, "the ministers have been preach- ing for years that great wealth {should be held in trust for the bene- fit of humanity. Do you think so?" "That is right," came the answer. "Yes, but not as a sentiment," I ventured. - "The doctrine is scarce- {ly novel on the lips of spiritual coun- sclors. But now, as a downright practical principle to be accepted and cated upon, does the rich man him- self literally regard his wealth as a trast for mankind?" Like a flash came the answer. "How else can he regard it? Heaven pity the rich man who does not so regard it: For that man and his children there is no peace." Encouraged by his freedom of speech I ventured another question. "Tell me, Mr. 'Rockefelier, what in your opinion is the future indus- trial hope of your country?" "That is a matter for God in His infintite wisdom to answer," was his reply. '"The nation is progressing. Traditional stupidities and the fal- lacy of attempting to control pro- gress are trailing behind. The coun- try is richer today than ever. The greater part of its wealth in lands and developments has never yet been exploited. Men will come who will do things that this age will marvel at. The industrial future for the country cannot be other than the brightest. "at 1s said, Mr. Rockefeller," I said at the next opportunity the game offered, "that the country. is in the throes of a political revolu- tien." 'Lots of things are said," was the answer. "Revolutions come and go. This talk of political revolutions has been rampant' since 1 was a boy. "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 sprong enough to turn a deaf ear to the rantings and ravings of reform- ers, well meaning, but pathetically misguided." The Mexican Situation Another question burned within me. It cried for utterance, yet I feared to chance it. The nation has heen facing the possibility of inter- vention in Mexico by armed forces of the United States. An expression of opinion from a man ose interests ia tle revolution-torn country are immense appealed powertully to me, "In. your opinion," I finally said, "would war with Mexico be a hu- mune step, and would the govern- ment be justified in sacrificing thous- ards of lives and spending millions of dollars in restoring order there?" A deep light that defies descrip- tion shone in Mr, Reckelzller's eyes. He stopped, and, resting on his golf stick, looked into the future. It was an impressive moment. "War is always to be avoided," he said simply, "avoided whenevet other means can succeed. "The situation in Mexico is unfor- tunate to a degree. No one man or body of men should decree that thousands of lives must be sacrificed and a Tortune expended without ma- ture deliberation. = If the situation demands intervention~--aud I do not knew that it does; I have not studied the matter---then it should be done quickly, with utmost defpatch and in a manner that will bring order out of chaos in rapid fire time. "A protracted occupation, drag- ging through years, is fatal. Cor- rorate management in war is just as efieclive as in business. Let us try, however, to do our duty as a nation regardless of all else." 3 Mr. Rockefeller strongly disap- proves of an incame tax. He has very firmly fixed ideas as to pro- perty rights and the inviolability 'of the profits ariging from them. His wealth has been estimated at from $300,000,000 to $400,000,000. His creme roughly would be from $15, 00,000 to $20,000,000 a year and his income tax might be from $400, 004 up. . "When a man has accumulated a re. Sum of money," he says, "accumulat- Jed it within the law, the government has no right to share in its earnings. The man has respected the law. Ex- poet facto laws should not apply to property rights. Man's right to un- divided ownership in his property in by emy process short of confiseation. Men of great wealth give ore to the Whatever form cannot be denied Wim & Whom They Deal. people in their own way government." . -- Views 'on Corporations In 'speaking of corporations and the growing tendency of some people to mistrust thém he said: "The popular suspicion of corpor- ations will in time be corrécfed by the good sober sénse of the people, We must trust to that. It must fn good time be perceived by all that the eentralised corporation is a necessity of progress. "There has been this substantial basis for pepular suspicions; there huve been illsmianaged and even im- morally managed' corporations. But it is peor logic to find against the whole idea of corporations because of these few failures. "The attitude of many towards corporations is not as friendly as it shenld be, 1 attribute this to the same causes that act to oppose every step of advance, "We have come into au new econo- mic ern. In the future business is by aggregations of capital. It can- not be otherwise. The well managed coiporation with ample capital is economically superior to the. indivi- dual. History doesn't. move baek- werd. It is simply and solely a question of efficiency." * How many of his critics would suppose that Mr, Rockeleller is a secs in a sense? Yet it iy true. Here is another revelation, unfold- ing a new phase of the many sided character of this man: "We are all socialists in a sense," says Mr. Rockefeller. "We under- stand that all men are bound to- other in vital relationships from which there is na escape. No man liveth unto himself. The interests of one are the interests of all. But the error of socialism is in supposing hat you ean create by formal enact- ment what must be a natural de- velopment, what must be carried on by men selected by nature." Honor among business men, abso- lute faith in the future of the Ameri- can people, the giving of charity from a business standpoint, and the future growth of American indus- tries; these are themes that Mr Rockefeller is keenly interested in, and talks freely of to his personal friends and associates. than the His Life Romance Of the romance in the life of this linancial eaptaip there is little known by the public. That Mrs. Rocke- feller has been a tremendous influ- ence in Mr. Rockefellers life is ad- wilted by friends of the family. The two first meét when young Rockefeller went to Cleveland to at- tend high school, when he was 16 years old. In the early '50's Luey Celestia Spelman was receiving the best and boadest education her fath- er could give her. At that time Har- vey B. Spelman was one of the mer- chant princes of Cleveland. He trac- ed his lineage back to Henry Spel- man, who was made a knight by King James for signal service to the ¥hrone. When Mr. Rockefeller found his first employment with the commis- sion house of Hewitt and Tuttle, he was aided and encouraged by Miss Spelman, who was then a teacher. The two were not ' married until i8¢€4, after Mr. Rockefeller had gone 'lino business for himself, Of his wife Mr. Rockefeller says: "She: was the best book-keeper I ever had, We would work together over the books I brought from the office." Mrs. Rockefeller is always im- niersed in her hgme duties. She be- longs to no clubs, and devotes her entire attention to her husband's hone. She shares his religious and charitable views, and is a member of the Euclid Avenue Baptist church, which Mr. Rockefeller attends every Sunday. Mr. Rockefeller - is particularly fond of animals. He is deeply inter- ested in the care and improvement of his Forest Hill estate. Not long ago he installed a plant to heat the water in a big. lily pond at Forest Hil. There were fish and lillies in that pond long after the grounds vere white with frost. He had plac- ed at one side of the pond a coke Leater furnace, and by means of it the water in the pond is kept at a éettain temperature day and night. This is the man who has been triea and convicted in the court of ci Ho nt aK |. .Once people get acquainted With the wonderful Soutral og Neh rn Chase's Syrup ot Linseed and Tur- pentine exerts over bronchitis, whooping cough, croup and colds it Is not easy to persuads them that anything else is "just as good." This is why the imitators never get very ar, 3 in 1902 Mrs. Eugene Iler, King street, Truro, N.S,, wrote as follows: "From an infant one of child: ren was troubled with bronchitis and the least eold would aggravate the trouble. We could not get anything 1° help him, and were often great- y alarmed. Hearing of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine as a treatment for bronchitis, we mused it and are glad to state that it ef- fected a complete cure. If any of the children: take a enld or cough 1) give this 'medicine, aad have never krown ft to f8il to bring relief." Mrs. Her writes that she has since prover this medicine to te a cure for whooping cough, and would not be without it in the house.' | t. 8 sum of maney so huge: iti magnitude is difficult to grasp. | 51 Rockefeller Has "Given AWdy 135 Milliohs * His Advice to Young Men Is To Ge Straight and Do Their Best, Being Honest With Themselves When Mr. Rockefeller gave $10, 200.000 to the general education oard fn 1909 he brought t ; of hi known gifts to $120,000,000. | unknown gifts duking the | last 30 to innumerable jnstitu- | Jdons, objects and individn page the final figures of \his ben: ; { ace probably in excess of $13 im of my 0 that | A few weeks ago Clevelanders conducted a campaign to ratse $250, 000 for Charity hospital.
