WEALTH AND PATRIOTISM.

The great success of the French loan is
somewhat OF a novelty to other countries
But it need be no mystery to those familiar
with the French people. particularly of.the
rural districts. By the rural districts in
France one means outside of Paris.
The whole secret is in the general distribu-
tion of wealth in the hands of the multitude.
This wealth is accumulated by the assiduous
and economical pursuit of manufacturing
industry on small scale and the excellent
cultivation of small farms The great bulk
of the wealth of France is in the hands OF
the masses, and so long as this is true that
republic will retain its rccuperative powers
and ability to rally from almost any catas-
trophe. When the Government wants
money those small capitalists hasten to in
vest what they can spare, partly from patri-
otic motives and partly to secure the small
interest. The people are the Government,
and what they are taxed to pay interest on
the public debt returns again to the tax
payers.
In a country where there are colossal
fortunes and great display of wealth, the
class. Very naturally it gives favors to that
class. All this detracts from the patriot
ism of the people during the emergency and
gives rise to no end of dissatisfaction and
complaint afterward, when the masses are
taxed to pay back the loans advanced by
the few. They feel they are the sovereign
people for purposes of physical defense and
taxation. but have no place in the distribu-
ton Of benefits.
In this country, where the development
of wonderfully rich resources under favored
conditions has made it possible for tre-
mendous fortunes to be built up in few
years. this phase of the matter is of especial
interest. 1t has been an observed principle
of political science since the days of ancient
Greece and Rome that the stability of a
government is to be gauged by the proper
tion of the welI-to-do middle classes to the
whole population. While the undeveloped
territory and resources of this country shall
bear any proportion to population similar to
that of the present time. tine great majority
OF the people must belong to the prosperous
patriotic class. But with the rapid growth
of our population the near future may de-
mand settlement of serious questions. 1t
would seem to be wise to provide measures
now to check the growth Of enormous
private fortunes An easy computation will
show that if conditions are not changed by
the time this country is half as thickly
populated as France now is, the few will
own all the interest drawing wealth of the
country. The converse of this means that
the great mass of the people will be tithe
paying serfs. Our form of government
could not survive such conditions. Neces-
sary changes may be more easily made now
than twenty years hence.

He Makes Another Proposition for Mon
ument to Judge Wilson.
rFRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENT!
HARRISBURG, jan 15.-Judge Harry White,
of Indiana county, offers to 60 still farther in
his remarkable unselfshness, which was briefly
alluded to in these dispatches yesterday. He
presents the $1,000 to the State for a monument
TO Judge James Wilson. But General Whites
letter. as read in the House of Representatives
to-day says that if the State refuses to recog-
nize his claim for interest on the money, then
ne will add 81, 500 additional, providing the
Legislature will appropriate S.. 600 more to make
the monument cost $4,000. The Governor ac-
companied Judge Whites letter TO the Legis-
lature with q message of his own, in which he
says the State cannot be legally bound to pay
interest on money left deposited in its treasury
but he offsets that by recommending that the
Legislature appropriate 81. 500 to the erection
of the Wilson monument.
Judge Wilson was Scotch, and came to this
country in 1851, practiciDg law in Philadelphia
in 1766. He afterward lived at Reading and
Carlisle. He was delegate to the first pro-
vincial conventions to agitate the Revolution,
and was one of The signers of the Declaration
of Independence. Many of his peculiar ideas
were engrafted in the Federal Constitution
and George Washington appointed him the
first Pennsylvania Justice in the United States
Supreme Court. Dying under distressing cir.
cumstances, his body still lies in an obscure
spot of the South. Judge White stipulates
that the monument shall be built on Inde-
pendence square, Philadelphia.

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
p1TTsBURG. FRIDAY, JAN. l6, 1891.
THE WESTINGHOUSE INDUSTRIES.

So long as there was hope that the Ad-
visorv Committee from our bankers and
business men appointed to help the West
inghouse industries out Of their dlthcuity
would be able to see the way clear to rem
dering efficient assistance, the press OF the
city with a view to local interests has very
generally forborne comment or criticism.
Even now, when a climax has been reached
by the Committees refusal to 60 on and by
the institution of suits against one OF the
companies, what is to be said should be a
ground ior encouragement rather than ap-
preheusion as TO the future of these indus
tTies.
The fact is reasonably apparent that the
state OF the companies affected is solely
traeeable TO their methods of nnanciering
and management and not at all to the ab-
sence Of ample opportunity for producing
widely different results il more conservative
courses had been pursued. The radical
fault of water capitalization for other con-
sidera:ions than cash, and systems OF ex-
pendlture, commensurate with the nominal
large capital rather than the actual re-
sources stands out palpablv as the root OF
tie embarrassment. The large actual reve-
nues of the electric company and of the gas
company are, on the other hand, the best
evidence OF the business opportunities for
both So long as these opportunities exist
the industries are bound to go on and ulti-
mateIy prosper. That reorganization on a
new and closer basis seems inevitable is
only an incident essential to future success.
1t is to be regretted for the time being that
these concerns should have met with vicissi-
tudes so productive of loss to the numerous
stockholders. On the other hand the mis-
takes of the past can hardly be repeated;
and the business which they represent,
which, in itself should be profitable, when
put upon more economical basis. ought TO
continue as heretofore factor in the indus
trial welfare of the town. Courage coupled
with strictest conservatism and care seems
to be what the situation calls for. With
water and waste eliminated the two factors
of danger would be removed, and the pros
poets appreciably frightened.

COPYRIGHT. OR ROYALTY.

There is a remote prospect that the inter-
national copyright bill may be reached in
the Senate this session. There can be no
denying the demand for some measure for
the protection, not only of foreign authors,
but American as well. at present the for
eign author is deprived of any income from
the sale of his work in this country and the
American author Is compelled to sell his
manuscript to the publisher in competition
with the foreign reprint manuscript which
costs nothing.
The bill which has passed the House and
is now before the Senate remedies this con-
dition to some extent. 1t provides that all
foreign works for publication in this coun-
try must be printed here. and that no for
eign plates shall be seat here for that
purpose. This provision works chiefly to
the protection of the publisher, who is sup
posed to pay the foreign author for his
manuscript. Another bill is pending, in
the Senate Committee, introduced by Sena-
tor Teller. 1t provides simply for the pay
ment of a stipulated royalty to the foreign
author, for the use of his work. 1t differs
from the copyright in that it leaves the re-
production of the foreign work open to as
many American publishers as may be will.
ing to pay the royalty. This is in the
interest of the American book-buyer, and in
that much the Teller bill may be considered
superior to the other.
Under the copyright bill the foreign au.
thor may demand what he pleases for the
work, and the American publisher who buys
it may tax the reading public as much as
the traffic will bear to get his investment
back, with interest. Under the royslty pro.
vision, the compensation of the foreign au.
thor is In proportion to the sale of his work,
and the profit of the publisher is limited by
the amount of competition with othel
American publishers. This latter system
would seem to afford greater protection tc
the American author as we'll as the American
reader. He could almost certainly secure q
royalty equal to that accorded foreign au-
thors, whereas under the copyright, his com.
pensation would be measured by the urgency
of his necessity and the competition ol
cheap foreign manuscripts.

The Rat Returned.

Some weeks ago in this column veracious
account was given of the singular liking for
music shown by a rat who chose the interior of
grand piano for its home and made itself a
bed out of Chopin and Spohr and other classical
sheet music. 1t may be remembered that the
narrative closed with the expulsion of the rat:
that was the END of the rats tale, so to speak,
for the time.
Night before last a gentleman who believes
in extracting his fingers worth from the keys
sat down at this very same piano in an East
End residence and began to test its sorority.
The response was disappointing, especially in
the bass octaves. They sounded dull and
woolly and no amount of pounding would in
crease the volume of sound from the bass.
"Can that rat have returned?' asked the
pianist.
"Nop' was the incredulous chorus.
"Pm going to see all the same" retorted the
pianist. and he lifted up the square cover of the
piano. over and among the wires of the piano
and on tine left side was a mass of music in
printed form. A poke or two brought out a
large rat about foot long and extremely well
fed. OF course the rat escaped, and all that
could be done was to examine her home-ror
the rat had evidently intended to rear family
in the piano. She had built it firmly with
music, which she had previously torn and
achewed into pulp, and the fragments of paper
showed that she mad CHOSEN music OF very
