TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION:
THE BAPTIST mILLIONAlRE


The Baptists have in their ranks the rich
est man in America, J. D. Rockefeller. He
has just given a million dollars to the Chi
cago university, a great institution of
learning which he practically founded.
This sum added to his former donations
makes two million dollars. If Brother
Rockefeller had divided his millions among
the poor struggling Baptist ministers on
the frontiers of civilization and provided a
fund for erecting churches in the new
states and territories it would have perhaps
been better; but then we have no desire to
dictate to the head of the Standard Oil
company. The Whateom Reveille charges
that there is too much water in his oil, a
very natural fault for Baptist. We think
the ReveilIe is mistaken and advise it to
try electric lights, The Baptist millionaire
should take tour into the byways and
hedges of the outskirts Of country and see
for himself the great necessity Of aiding
the pastors, churches and mission schools
Of his denomination. You can not get
good preaching out Of an lily paid minister
Of the gospel nor can you get good whole
some Fenglon out Of halt starved cOngre-
cation. Mr.. Rockefeller's money ought to
have been distributed instead of piling it
all up in Chicago.
The university which Mr.. Rockefeller
founded has received from other sources
$60oo0O, besides tract of land valued at
100000, so that it will start out with a
capital of 100000, of which at least 81
100000 can be reserved for endowment. A
very strong staff of teachers is being en-
gagged, the endowment already in hand en-
abling its president to offer liberal salaries
to distinguished educators. Mr.. Roekefel

The Funeral Was POSTPONED.

Boston Journal: As an example of unre-
warded, eccentric thrift an anecdote told
to the Journal on Saturday is worth re-
cording, though it does touch upon
funereal joking Some forty years ago
Massachusetts good wife lay in her bed ap-
parently dying with consumption. As the
family lived four miles from the undertaken
and pastor, and as the roads were badly
blocked with snow, the husband, when
called to the village on business on Tues
day, decided-thoughtfu man Ito save an
extra journey in that bitter weather by en-
gaging the minister and undertaken at
once and appointing the funeral for Friday.
In some way on Wednesday the sick
woman heard Of this, and, arousing herself
from her supposed dying condition, de-
clared "There'lI be no funeral in this
house this week!' The funeral was post
poned. Friday it took place-forty years
after it was originally set. The husband is
still living at the age of 80.

1t is very pretty fight which the Yer
mont Democrats are indulging in, with the
Republicans sitting on the fence in the
sympathetic attitude of the woman who
shouted "Go it husband, go it BAR" The
kickers, with headquarters in Brattleboro
who yearn for power and have it not, rush
frantically about the state, claiming the
earth and the fullness thereof, while Mr.
Atkins sits calmly in the Argus Office and
tells them that their uncle is still living, in
these words which close paragraph of his
on this subject this week: "The alleged
canvass sent out from Brattleboro is way
off; the figures are more than reversed.
The voting in the conventions will tell the
story, and the Democrats of very much the
larger number of the towns in the State
will see to it that that voting is on the
right side" At the present time we are
betting heavily on the side of Mr.. Atkins,
and expect to give him cordial congratula-
tions after the clouds roll by.

1t is the testimony of all who were pres
ent at the conventions at Montpelier on
Wednesday that the sentiment of delegates
and others was strongly in favor of Col. l..
X. Fuller for the next governor of Yer
mont His excellent qualifications for the
place were conceded, and the claims of
Windham county were acknowledged
Those who were not favorable to Col. Full
ler's candidacy made no secret of their APP
probation of the drift of public sentiment
toward him. Whatever attempt was made
to use the conventions to boom any candi-
date, no work of this kind could be charged
to Col. Fuller's adherents. The course
adopted by those who attempted to force
an expression of a choice of candidates
from the delegates was severely criticised
Many of Col. Fuller's warmest friends re-
fused to give any such expression, and it
is significant fact that no complete state
ment of the result arrived at has been pub
lished.
Another point well established is that,
whatever opposition to Col. Fuller exists,
it has not assumed any organized form,
and is so far unable to unite upon any
candidate. The outlook, it is evident,
could hardly be more satisfactory.

The Result in Rhode Island

The most gratifying and significant fea-
ture of the Republican success which was
won in Rhode Island last week lies in the
fact that the largest gains were made and
the victory was won in the cities and large
manufacturing towns of the state where
the contest was the hottest and where the
issues were most freely discussed. The
fight was a square and open one, with
out concealment or evasion. Here in this
hive of manufacturing industry, where the
Republican tariff policy finds its best APP
plication, the Republicans brought the pro-
it with its best exponents, like Reed,
Mckinley and Aldrich. The Democrats
accepted the issue, bringing their strongest
men into the state, organizing thoroughly,
and bringing every possible influence to
bear to turn the votes of the workingmen
toward their ticket They were confident
of success, fully expecting to have, not
simply plurality, but a majority upon the
vote for governor, besides controlling the
legislature. But intelligence and sound
argument won the day, and the Republi-
cans won handsomely. In speaking of
the contest since the election Senator AL
drich, whose reelection is assured, said:
THE greatest gains made by the Republicans
were where the issues wer- fully discussed, ana
that go's to show that the thinking people voted
the right way The issues in Rhode Island were
national ones, and ON thrSe lines the battle was
fought. The tariff and the currency were the
two principal issues, and the result in our state
del af.Asf h.4
the wrong side II both questions This ReIubli-
can triumph also goes to show that TO be success
ful the Republican party must make an aggres-
siNe light for the protection of American indus
tries and the maintenance of sound American
currency. Now that the Rhode Island election
is r. the pc ope of the country cannot ask for
any greater proof that the Republican party is
making its fight this year on the grandest princi-
ples-principes which appeal, q in Rhode Islsnd
state, and will appeal to the whole country So
powerfully next November. that magnificent
Republican triumph will be the result"
A disquieting thing, for the Democrats,
in this Rhode Island result lies in the fact,
already stated, that the best Republican
gains were made in the largest manufac-
turing towns, where the percentage of for
eign-bOrn wOrkingmen, or the children of
foreigners, is the greatest. 1t is to the
ranks of this element of our population
that the Democrats have always looked
most confidently for the votes to give
them their majorities, but result like
this, in canvass conducted on intelligent,
argumentative lines, is an unwelcome in
dication to the Democratic politicians that
the time is going by when they can appeal
successfully to the predjudices, rather than
to the reason, of the Industrious, self-re-
specting element of our foreign-born pop
ulation.

honor, at which many distinguished peo-

still another speech in his own inimitable
