Colonel Higginson, in his nfw
lecture on "Wealth's Aristocraey,
denies boldly Leigh Hunts asser-
ton that Americans have one
god money mo wealth, he
says, brings reputation unless it
Is gained through great criminaIi-
~, daring speculation, or is used
in some noble or preposterous
way. The man most famous for
his wealth dies and is found to be
bankrupt; every one says, "Just
as expected" But young man
makes stirring speech in some
electioneering campaign, or a
young girl writes thrilling story,
and they wake to find themselves
famous, while perhaps they have
not enough money to pay their
washer-woman. What foreign
ers do we receive with enthusiasm.
If a millionaire comes to these
shores who knows of his arrival I?
But let Dickens come with his
humor and pathos to delight all
listeners, and the arrival is in all
the newspapers and everybody's
mouth. Let Swedish peasant
girl with nest of nightingales
come TO US, and all throng to h ear
her song. Do they bring money
to US? No, but we hasten to give
it to them to take away. The
distinguished Agassiz was invit-
ed to lecture in Portland, and a
great price was to De paid him.
His reply Was, Il have no time to
make money this winter A Sc
ries Of experiments in his museum
demanded his attention, and he
put off the making of money to a
more convenient season. 1t is
false that we work only for money.
Men here seek culture ,re6nement.
Improvement. Fashion even is
striving after something better.
AS the cook rivals her mistress in
dress, she is uncounsciously per-
haps seeking a higher level In
this struggle wealth takes the lead,
for it has the advantage. So the
aristocracy of the dollar is as the
foam on the wave Of progress
brilliant, evanescent, changeable
as the wave itself. 1t represents
actual power, not past possessions
like hereditary aristocracy. The
latter is of yesterday the former
to day.,

THE RED SPECTRE is the weapon
Of absolutism in Germany and reac-
tionism in France, whereby timid
Legislators are frightened into plac-
ing fresh manacles upon free thought
and action. The majority in the
Reichstag, however, does not seem
to have been much terrified by Count
Won Eulenburg's picture of the COM
ing Of "the Red Republic with Com
munism and Atheism" for they re-
jected the amendments to the Grim
inal Code which Prince Bismarck
has framed.
