Synopsis
Excerpt from John D. Rockefeller: And His Career The aim of this sketch of John D. Rockefeller and his career is to furnish a popular manual of the schemes and plans and enterprises that have contributed to upbuild the Standard Oil Trust. To many minds the achievements of John D. Rockefeller seem uncanny and full of mystery. The writer has taken particular pains to unravel the mystery and explain the uncanny. The acquisition of wealth to many is the great end of life. To such, John D. Rockefeller must forever be a marvel. But to those who believe that there are greater and better and nobler things in life than money-making, Rockefeller's career is a subject, not for admiration, but for criticism. It is, indeed, instructive to watch Mr. Rockefeller climbing to fame, to power, and to boundless wealth through systematic violation of the laws and the Constitutions of the States and Nation, but it is not admirable. The American forms of government as organized by the Fathers of the Revolution and developed by succeeding generations, have broken down disastrously when confronted with the genius or obstinacy or ambition of John D. Rockefeller and his imitators. Hatred of monopoly is inbred in the American people. It was an inherited hatred.
