Yes it does. It can be understood using this very basic formula relating surface tension and capillary rise .

Surface tension of a liquid can be changed by changing temperature as written byKhaja Safiuddin and also by adding salts(electrolytes) and surfactants to the liquid. Adding salts change the surface tension (increase or decrease depending on the salt added) of the liquid by a great deal and hence will lead to a greater change in capillary rise.
