ROCKEFELLER'S NEW MOVE
Said to be Heading a Syndicate to
Corner Canadian Nickel

Toronto, Ont, Sept. lit is reported
here today that John D. Rockefeller of
Standard Oil fame, with other Ameri-
can capitalists, is trying to corner the
Canadian nickel mines. When Prof.
Austen Roberts, the metallurgist of the
British mint, was here at the meeting
of the British association last month,
he ma de active inquiries concerning the
deposits of nickel in Ontario.
He also made experiments with the
ore to ascertain its ability to withstand
penetration by heavy guns. It appears
to be taken for granted that if his re-
port to the imperial government proves
satisfactory some steps will be taken
by the home government to develop the
industry with a view to utilizing the
ore in the manufacture of arrnor plate,
and it is not unlikely that this has led
to the present attempt to buy up the
mines. 1t is said the only hitch in
the negotiations of the Rockefeller syn
dicate, which now holds large interest
in the mines, is that some independent
mine owners will not sell at the prices
offered. This prevents the syndicate
from getting control of the market.

NO MORE GRAVE YARDS.
a Sanitary Mausoleum to be Built
in New York

New York, Sept. 1.-THE board of
health of New York has approved the
plans of a new mauSo1eum company,
and the latter will establish a sanitary
mausoleum near High Bridge, with a
capacity of from 1o, 600 to Il, 600 bodies.
The idea is to seal up the dead in ce-
ment receptacles, after exposing the
bodies for several months to current
of air made chemically pure by passing
it over sulphuric acid, and afterward by
fire. When the body is thoroughly des-
located the receptacle is to be made air
tight. The sanitary authorities are re-
ported to be we'll pleased with the pro-
posed scheme, which avoids so many

Uniform Rank, A. o. II.

The Uniform Rank, "A. o. H. of Maine,
will hold a field day in Portland, Labor
Day. Preparations are being made for a
grand parade followed by dinner and
field sports of all kinds at the Islands
The parade will take place in the city in
the forenoon, and the five divisions Of the
uniform ranks in the State will turn out
in full force and participate. The Port
land divisions working hard drilling for
the event, and propose to put up one Of
the finest drills ever seen in this city.
After the parade steamer will be taken
for Long Island, where a fine dinner will
be served after which the field sports
will take place.
1t has been suggested by some of the
prominent members that the Uniform
Rank of the A. o. H. be formed into a
regiment, but as there are only five divis-
ions in the State others have favored the
idea Of forming a battalion. Nothing
definite yet has been decided upon.

of silver while it would deprive him of
this advantage, would do him no injus-
tice. A man who advocating free coinage
OF silver on this assumption cannot be
charged with immortality, nor can he be
charged with advocation something he
believed to be fraught with danger to the
country. We hold that free coinage would
not have worked the way its honest sup
porters thought it would work, and that
the result of it would have been inJus-
tice to the creditor and a dangerous dis
turbance of values which would have dis
couraged business and brought disaster
to the country; but it would not be lair
to say that man who, believing to the
contrary, advocated free coinage, was
guilty of immoral or unethioal teaching.
The most President Andrews was guilty
was of preaching doctrine which ma
jority of his fellow citizens believed to be
erroneous and fraught with danger to the
commonwealth. The doctrine of free
trade is held and taught by a great many
of our college presidents and in the opin-
ion of many that doctrine is fraught
with even greater danger to the common
wealth than that of free silver. If we
are going to compel the resignation of
college presidents because they believe in
free coinage, why should we not compel
them to resign when they believe in, and
publicly teach free trade? When shall
we draw the line? Shall we insist that
our college presidents shall always hold
the opinions of the majority on public
questions, and if they do not shall we
demand that they change them or resign?
How have other prominent men who
believed in FREQ coinage by the United
States alone been treated? Have they been
looked upon as immoral men unfit to
occupy positions where their influence
might be felt? Congressman Walker saw
not many months ago two of the most
prominent free coinage advocates-Sena-
tor Wolcott and ex-Vice President Steven
son-appointed by President elected by
voters who were opposed TO free coinage,
to represent this nation abroad. If these
men had been guilty of immorality-and
they had if President Andrews had
ought not Mr.. Walker to have made a
protest against their selection? Why
should a college president be picked out
for rebukes Is the doctrine going to be
set up that college professors must con-
| fine themselves strictly TO their special
work, and keep silent upon all public
questions, lest they may offend some of
the patrons of the institution? If that
doctrine is to prevail then the communi-
ty is going to lose the Judgment and in
fiuence of men best qualified to speak
with authority on many public questions;
and college teaching is soon to fall into the
hands of very inferior men, for no man of
much Intellectual size will consent to
wear a muzzle.

It looks as If Judge Jackson's order re-
straining Debs from melting the en-
ployes of the Monongah Coke and Coal
Company to strike, or interfering in any
manner whatever, either by word OF
deed, in the company's affairs, was d
pretty broad exercise of power. If he can
restrain Debs, of course he can restrain
anybody else to an equal extent. For
instance, he might restrain a newspaper
from calling attention to the inadequacy
of the wages paid the employees, for that
would be an interference with the COM
pany by word. Or he might forbid per-
son contributing to the support of the
striking miners, for that could easily be
construed as an interference with the
company by deed. 1t looks very much
as If Judge jackson had made his order
much more sweeping than the law will
Justify.

The case of the corporation of Brown
University against President Andrews
would have stood better if Congressman
Walker had drawn the formal indictment
If he had written the letter which
called forth Mr.. Andrews's resignation
for he would not have made the mistake
of presenting as, the principal charge
against him that he had lost gifts to the
college by espousing views disagreeable

claim and the claim Of all the honest

they alleged had been increased in value
by legislation, would fall some. Their
claim was that the creditor had got an
