EXPOSURES
Have Contributed Much To
ward Cleansing Campaign,
Says Frankfurter Zeitung.
BERLIN, Sept. 3.—The Standard Oil
disclosures and their effect on the pres
idential campaign in the United States
are attracting as much attention tn
Germany as the Panama canal matter
,nd the New York police scandal.
The Frankfurter Zeitung, one of Ger
many's most important and influential
newspapers, says:
"The Hearst newspapers tn the
United States are evidently making a
specialty of telling the public all about
the various contributions the Rockefel
ler petroleum trust has paid to Indi
vidual' politicians and election
In doing this Mr. Hearst has contribut
ed much toward the cleansing of the
political campaign in his country.
"Os course, there can be no objec
tion if a wealthy congressman chooses
m give to his political conviction a
strong financial hacking, and if Mr.
I’. ikins, multi-millionaire and former
partner of the banking firm of Morgan
Co.. really did as it is now claimed,
and contributed $3,000,000 to the fund
f the progressive wing of the Repub
lic n party, there can be not only no
objection to such a sourse, but there is
room for hope that progressive parties
In other countries may find equally
wealthy and liberal constituents. We
say constituents because Mr. Pet kins'
has, to our knowledge, represented for
many years the progressive ideas of
the left wing of the Republican party.
It is quite natural, therefore, if he

n lien commercial firms as such and
corporations or trusts give financial
contributions to political parties or to
their campaign funds, for commercial
firms and corporations have no polit

Interests Besides, it used to be uni
versally customary in America that
big corporations contribute to the
funds of both parties where they were
locally interested or sometimes only the
one side that promised them most in
return. Those we-e conditions of the
lowest corruption which It is true have
been strongly repressed today, prin
cipally under the. induct'-e of Roose

’’One ot the best known and fnost
handy representatives of this old sys
tem is Senator Pentose, rcactlonary-
Republican representative of Pennsyl
vania. No one in the Union was very
much surprised, therefore, when Mr.
Fb irst gave documentary proof that
Penrose had received $25,000 from the
oil trust in 1904. The excuse of the
exposed boss before the senate was
that tlte money had been for a presi

leaders of the trust said that even

GIOCONDA DESTROYED IN
REVENGE, IS HIS THEORY
LONDON, Sept. 3.—The Paris corre
spondent of Truth this story of
the disappearance of Gioconda at the
Louvre:
"I think 1 have at last learned the
truth as to the fate of the Gioconda.
We shall never again see Leonardo Da-
Vinci’s famous picture. One might wish
it had been stolen, for then there would
have been hope for its reappearance. The
fact is, I learn that it never left the
Louvre: it perished there.
“A photographer’s employee, wishing to
avenge himself on the world-at-large
for what he thought his wrongful dis
missal. imagined a piece of sabotage
worthy of a twentieth century Hero
strates: he spread the contents of a phial
of sulphuric acid over the portrait of
Mona Lisa."
