IT is ROBBERY.

Yesterday we printed a bold utterance
from Bishop Potter, which, though i'll ad-
yised. showed that the pulpit is taking
cognizance Of the fact that there is
ground for the discomfort that is seen
wherever men labor.
DR., Lorimer, of Boston, is another
famous preacher who has spoken out III
way to attract attention. He preached
a sermon on Sunday ON "The Moral and
Social Significance of Great Crime ?
1t was a severe arraignment of society,
which allows conditions to exist which
drive people to suicide rather than steal
or starve. Anent the Dingley bill, he
said:
sour society is unnatural. Our ideas
are too material. We plan, legislate,
and do everything for the rich. He
that hath to him shall be given, and
from him that has not, shall be taken
away, even that little that he has.
7 This is our rule. How else can be
explained the doubling of the tariff
on wool, which will take the coat off
+ the poor mans back"
This sentiment seemed to appeal to thu
audience nightly, and there was per
ceptible stir. DR.. Lorimer speaks wisely
and shows that he is ready to attacl
even selfish rich manufacturers who wan
to tax the people for their own beneflt
1t is robbery under the forms OF law, AM
DIR. Lorimer is brave man to say so Il

WEDNESDAY,
THE RATTLE ABBEY.

Chas, Broadway Rouss, now a mil,
l;onaire merchant Of New York, was, dur
Ing the war between the States, a private
soldier in Company B, Twelfth Virginia
Cavalry. which formed part of the gal
liant Turner Ashby's command. AFTER
the death of Ashby, the brigade was COM
manded first by General Thos. L. Rosser'
during which time it was a portion
of Gen. Wade Hampton's Division, and
by him was designated "The Laurel
Brigade" After Rosser's promotion to
Major General, the brigade was COM
manded by General James Dearing.- who
was killed at the head of his command
at the Hight Bridge on the retreat from
Petersburg to Appomattox Courthouse.
Mr.. Rouss is now entirely blind and
his thoughts are turning to his comrades
and our dear Southland, and he has
conceived the idea Of erecting a build
ing somewhere in the South
which in design and appoint
ment shall be DOtn IHonunien'
and store-a monument to the cause for
which he CALAMITY fought and reposi-
tory for the records, relics and memen-
toes of the Southern Confederacy. Mr..
Rouss has set aside from his fortune one
hundred thousand dollars for the erection
of his Abbey and General Rosser is en-
deayoring to stimulate the old Confed-
crates, their sons and their daughters to
aid in meeting Mr.. Rouss's muniticent Of
fer with a like sum, and to speed the
work to an early completion.
I, As this is to stand as an object lesson
to posferity, reminding generations yet
unborn of the heroism, devotion and gal
lantry of their ancestors, who loved their
dear Southland better than life, and who
poured out their LIES blood in; its de-
Tense. we think that it should be erected
in Richmond, the capitol Of the Confed-
eracy and of the State which can boast
of such Generals as Lee and Jackson, and
such privates as Charles Broadway
Rouss.

COMES IN.

The news comes from Washington
that the President will not pardon Chap
man. the sugar broker, unless the Sena-
TORS who composed the investigating COM
mittee petition for his pardon. Most OF
them will sign the petition, and in all
probability Chapman will escape punish
ment.
There would not be enough in this to
create deep public interest if the Chap
man case was really the one the Presi-
dent is considering. If Chapman goes to
iail. Hayermeyer and Searles, the sugar
trust kings, must go too. There is the
rub. If Mckinley were not to interfere
in Chapman's case, how could he come to
the rescue Of his special trust friends,
who contributed large sums to secure his
election, without publicly exposing the
fact that he wears the trust collar? For
this reason, unless some flaw can be
found in the law as to the sugar trust
kings, Chapman is to get clemency
through the intervention Of men who
serve him because to help him is to save
their own skins.
Chapman is lucky. 1t isn't often that
gets off because some bigger
must help him in order to
save himself.
