Money or Men 2

If money is the measure of man
hood VIM. K. Vanderbilt is the great
est man in the United States. By a
shrewd manipulation Of stocks, beng
inside and immensely rich to begin
with, Vanderbilt is reported to have
cleared profit of $a5, 1000, ,ooo with a
few months recently. This is a great
achievement.
1t has been figured out by the
Chicago Dispatch that this sum repre-
sents the labor of one Hazleton coal
miner for 81, 900 years. 1t represents
the labor of Admiral Dewey for 5000
years. 1t represents the salary of the
President of the United States for 900
years.
Is VIM. K. Vanderbilt, therefore, a
greater man than Admiral Dewey or
the president of the United States
1t look so, from the money stand
point!
Rich men are trying to get control
of this government. The money pow
er struck the first blow against the
supremacy of the people in 1873,
when it secured by secret and dis
honorable methods the demonetiza-
tion of silver.
But the exigencies of the present
have called Dewey into action. He
has made the nation respected and
feared by all the powers OF the earth.
What has Vanderbilt done ? He has
made profit of $2s,coo,ooo in less
than year. Do the people desire to
honor such men as Vanderbilt higher
than such men as Dewey7 Is it
money or is it men that deserve honor
from this nation? Settle it at the
polls in the fall and succeeding fall
elections.-E1.

Regular Army Heroes.

If the army at Santiago was COM
posed in any considerable measure of
volunteers, there would be more live
ly expression of concern about the
prevailing fever. 1t is not that peo-
pie do not care for the regulars, but
they have not been accustomed to
give them much thought, and as they
are recruited in all parts of the coun.
try, there is not that concentrated
local interest in them that follows
each regiment of volunteers.
The New York papers, for example,
have had a great deal to say about
the Seventy-frst and New York and
the Boston papers about the Second
Massachusetts, the two regiments of
volunteer infantry that went with
Shafter, and the volunteer cavalry
regiment has been widely separated.
We have heard comparatively little
about the Sixth, the Tenth, the
Twelfth, the Thirteenth, or Sixteenth
Infantry, or the Sixth cavalry, whose
daring and suffering before Santiago
were so tremendous. The reason is
plain, that the regulars represent the
whole country and no one locality
and thus do not command the same
particular interest that leads each
state to make special heroes OF its
own volunteers.
This impersonality of the regular
army makes its unselfsh heroism so
superb, its silent suffering SO pathetic.
Officers and men are falling sick at
the rate of regiment day and we
speak of them only in abstract num-
bers. If the men who have lately
gone out from among us were suffer-
ing in this way what an outcry there
would be.-Philadelphia Times.

Efforts are making and it is be-
lleved by the postal authorities in the
United States and England that the
conclusion is near at hand when the
uniform postal rate between the two
countries will be the same as IN that
in either country, I penny, or cents.
The convictioh of experts is that the
increase of postal matter at the re-
duced rate would increase the postal
revenue for both countries. Yet by q
strange anomaly of conditions Great
Britain is likely to be baffled in the
attempt to make similar reduction
between the mother country and her
confederated colonies. The objection
on the part of Australia and Canada
is that on their side of the bargain it
would be Improbable. What a curl
GUS turn may be presented by the
early future-England and the United
States with common postal dues; Eng
land and her colonies with discriminate
ing rates
