A Word About Plagiarism

The charge of plagiarism made against
Mr.. Henry Johnson, the president of the
Philadelphia Central High school, Is on
Its face n senseless one. Mr. johnson is 4
man Of the highest character and the fact
that in recent address he reproduced
most OF the ideas and a portion of the
phraseology OF sn address once delivered
by Gen. Garfield, does not by any means
prove him literary thief. ltis very like
ly that the address in question made a
strong impression on MIR. johnson, and
that In writing his own address he uncon-
sciously reproduced portion. Of it, though,
a. he himself states II has been more than
year since he read it. Such eases rs
these are by no means rare. Indeed they
are extremely common. The man who
does not read to widen his own range of
thought by grasping the thought OF 9th
ers, will be apt to have a rather limited
Intellectual vision. IL he be an intense
student, who follows the adyices of Bacon
aud ''cbews and digests" what he reads
1t will not he At all surprising II he fire.
Quently reproduce in his own composition
portions of the thought and even the lau-
guage of other writers. People who are

productions and label them as plagsrisms

are of the most gauky description,
