J 5 EUROPE SEES
HEARST'S OIL
EXPOSURES
Have Contributed Much To
ward Cleansing Campaign,
Says Frankfurter Zeitung.
BERLIN. Sept. 3.—The Standard Oi)
si,closures and their effect on the pres
idential campaign in the United States
are attracting as much attention In
Germany as the Panama canal matter
and the New York police scandal.
The Frankfurter Zeitung, one of Ger
many’s most important and influential
newspapers, says:
The Hearst newspapers in the
i nited States are evidently making a
specialty of telling the public all about
tre various contributions the Rockefel
ler petroleum trust has .paid to indi
vidual politicians and election funds.
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
t > to his political conviction a
*t tig financial backing, and if Mr.
Perkins, multi-millionaire and former
partner of the banking firm of Morgan
& Go.. really did as it is now claimed,
an ' contributed $3,000,000 to the fund
of the progressive wing of the Repub-
ii an parly, there can be not only no
old- vtion to such a sours?, but there is
room for hope that progressive parties
in other countries may find equally
wealthy and liberal constituents. We
say constituents because Mr. Perkins
lias, to our knowledge, represented for
man.' years the progressive ideas of
the left wing of the Republican party.
I' is quite natural, therefore, if he
i.iin takes up the cause of Mr. Roose
\ -it.
Quite Arcthcr Matter.
"But tl is another matter indeed
v. '.!■:> commercial firms as such and
-- ■ . uions or trusts give financial
contributions to political parties or to
their campaign funds, for commercial
firms and corporations have no polit
:al persuasions. They have political
interests. Besides, it used to be uni
vet sally customary in America that
bis corporations contribute to the
funds of both parties where they were
locally interested or sometimes only the
err. side that promised them most in
return. Those were conditions of the
' west corruption which it is true have
been strongly repressed today, prin
< pally under the influence of Roose
velt.
"One of the best known and most
handy representatives of this old sys
tem is Senator Penrose, reactionary
republican representative of Pennsyl
' - nia. No one in the Union was very
lu’ieb surprised, therefore, when Mr.
11 t gave documentary proof that
I arose had received $25,000 from tin
ust in 1904. The excuse of the
1 d boss before the senate was
'• t ’< money had I een for a presi
' .npaigti fund, and one of the
" ' ihc I rust ~aid that even
that amount had been paid

I n ii documentary evidence that

be the reason why the trust no longer
t'o-essed a receipted bill for that
•'■loo,ooo. but receipt for that $25,000
*• Ttied b;, Penrose which Mr. Hearst
tim.s no whitewashing explanation in

lite important thing now is the
I ''iticai effect of these corruption dis
'■'Tures and the deliberate attempt to
’ < Roosevelt into this affair will per
receive tlte support of a portion
press of-New York, but it will
i : be approved by tne public opinion
" Jbe United States.
‘AU such attempts to discredit this
progressive leader so far have been
‘ -'nentable failures. Even his sharpest
! ' tical antagonists, those who were
s ‘ ious and decent men. have always
protected Roosevelt in that respect. It
r been sufficiently shown that immc
'iiitelx before his re-election in 1904 he
'off everything in his power to pre
the direct or indirect payment into
t party fund of contributions from cor
porations and trusts
fn< Republicans were not in great
' ' "f money at that time, for the
t . , 'ile<tion of the president was uti
tbted and the financial condition
•' ' ing the party was very weak.
ir whole affair will rather benefit
‘'iiwvi-lt, for it will surely strengthen
. disgust of decent Americans witli
"' r two old parties.”

GIOCONDA DESTROYED IN
REVENGE. IS HIS THEORY
LONDON. Sept. 3.—The I’aris corre
spondent of Truth publishes this story of
the disappearance of Gioconda at the
Louvre:
“1 think I 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.”
