EDITORS COMMENTS
John Dustin Archbold, a pioneering figure in the United States oil industry, is depicted in this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. Taken during the Clapp Hearings in 1912, Archbold, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a serious expression, sits at a table, surrounded by stacks of documents and a microphone. The Clapp Hearings were a series of investigations into the Standard Oil Company, which Archbold had helped build into a monopoly. The hearings, led by Senator Aldrich Clayton and Representative George Clapp, aimed to expose the company's monopolistic practices and bring about antitrust legislation. Archbold's appearance before the committee was a significant moment in the history of American business and antitrust law. The photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, captures the intensity and importance of this historical moment, providing a glimpse into the past of American industry and politics.
