Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1897-05-14

A few days ago John d. Rockefeller
addressed the young men of Fifth
avenue church in New York city, in
the course of which he made some very
startling statements. He asserted that
the poorest man in the world to-day is
the one who has nothing but money.
One cannot judge from his address
whether Mr.. Rockefeller intended to
convey that he possessed nothing but
money, though certainly leaving the
impression that he had that isolated
and peculiarly hated article, even
though he may have had little of any
thing else. He advised his hearers that
it was a religious duty to "get all the
money you can," and yet when we
know, according to Mr.. Rockefeller,
that the possession of money makes
one so miserable, the advice, get all
the money you can," comes with very
peculiar grace or inconsistency. Speak
ing Of his gradual growing fortune in
the early days he said: II was as in
dependent in those days as Mr.. Aston,
and when got the increase felt gull
ty. / felt like criminal-like cap
italist" Why should Mr.. Rockefeller
use the name of Mr.. Astor and the cpl
tibet criminal and the term capital
list" in the same breath, in the same
sentence and with the same implica-
ton? Is 1t a guilty conscience that
tries to divert attention from his own
acts to those of another? 1t is strange
with what peculiar sophistry our mon
ey bags desire to believe they can de-
Jude the people by specious pleas that
the possession of wealth is not desira-
BILE, while with relentless, persistent
grabbing and grinding the young and
the old, the strong and the weak, in
the mad rush to own and control mil
lions upon millions of dollars. Perhaps
there may be some element OF truth in
the abnormal possession of wealth with
surrounding poverty and misery as
bitter relish to the grandeur which
wealth affords. But the world is not
likely to take a man at his word when
his actions and conduct are in fragrant
contradiction to his pompous profess
sions of regret and pretentious abnega-
tion.-EX.

So far as the government Of Manito-
ba is concerned, the long-vexed paroch-
ial school question has been settled by
the enactment by the legislature OF a
bill carrying into effect the provisions
of the compromise recently agreed upon
between the Dominion and Manitoba
ministries. Under this settlement pro-
vision is made for religious teaching in
the schools at the close of the day
sessions, the teaching to be Catholic or
Protestant, according to the wishes OF
the parents. and attendance thereon to
be voluntary. The arrangement also
provides for the employment OF Cath
Ollie or nom Catholic teachers, accord
ing to the religious preferences OF a
certain proportion Of the parents, and
for the use of French in schools where
a certain number of pupils speak
French as their native language.

Treaties have been negotiated be-
tween President Kruger of the South
African Republic and President Steyn
of the Orange Free State which amount
almost to a federation of the two little
Dutch republics. Under the terms OF
the treaties, which await the ratifica-
ton of the Volksraads, the two repub-
lies agree to aid each other in case OF
attack, and the burghers of each state
are given the franchise in either re-
public. The South African Republic
has about twenty-five thousand men
available for military service, and the
Orange Free State has seventeen thous-
and. This alliance has been FASTENED

Bishop Seymour of the diocese of Il
linois has placed repentant dancers on
their feet again, so to speak, by say
ing that God has not cursed dancing;
that it is the poetry of motion, and not
inherently evil. The bishop also has
liberal views as to the drama, which he
considers not in itself evil. The young
people will doubtless hasten to agree
with the bishop, whatever hesitancy
their elders may exhibit in adopting
the bishops views.

An Object Lesson.

An object lesson as to the funda-
mental cause of poverty is in progress
at Oyster Bay, under the auspices of
the New York land board. Oyster Bay
is situated on bay of that name,
which is among the indentations made
by the sound in the northern shore OF
Long Island. Though not many miles
from New York city, the American hot
bed of poverty, Oyster Bay is one of the
places where oppressive poverty has
all along been unknown. Men have
always been able there to command
living wages. The explanation is not
remote. In the waters of the bay was
a living for anyone who chose to earn
it. Without more capital than he could
easily manage to get-a rude boat and
equally rude dredging tongs-it was
possible for any man by dredging for
oysters, clans and crabs, and after
wards selling them, to make enough
wages in the season to keep him COM
fortably during the year. Even the
least successful could do this. Work,
therefore, in the neighborhood of Oys-
ter Bay was never scarce and wages
there never oppressively low. No one
had any excuse for being out of work
when the shell fruit" of the bay in
vited him to come freely and gather it;
and no one would work for master
for less than he could earn by working
on the bay for himself. 1t was accord
ingly difficult to make the people Of
Oyster Bay believe that there is any
undeserved poverty in the world.
These conditions are now changed. Lo-
cal farms complained of the high
wages of farm hands, and boss dredgers
complained of the high wages of help,
two facts in which rich summer resi-
dents took advantage to make a legal
grab of the bottom of the bay, turning
it into private property. Applying to
the state land board and pretending
that the shores of Oyster Bay are sub
ject to violent storms, requiring break
waters for the protection of residences
and for making a safe harbor for pleas
ure boats, these rich summer folks pro-
cured grants to themselves of the bot
tom of the bay. They now own that
part of the earth, as well as the dry
parts surrounding 1.-THE sea as we'll
as the shore-and free employment at
Oyster Bay is at an end This Is an
admirable illustration of the way in
which general scarcity Of employment
and oppressive wages have been intro
duced into our civilization. What the
monopoly of Oyster Bay proves in a
small and simple way to be to few
people, such in large and complex
way to the great masses of the people
everywhere is the general monopoly of
the earth.-Cleveland Recorder.
