UNCONSCIOUS PLAGIARISM.

The fact that prominent novelist
h55 recently been ocmpslled TO answer
a charge OF plagiarism seems 20 have
aroused great interest in the whole
subject Of literary p,agi arism, con-
sciouS and unconscious. One is in
clined to believe that man who has
read much may, VIXEN he comes to
write, unconsciously adopt the words
Of other men, believing firmly that
they are the offspring CT his own imag-
inaI1n No one would think OF al
taching blame to a writer for such I'M
conscious adaptation could they be-
lieve that the adaPtaS1lo1 was really
unconscious. One of the many stories
which justin Mccarthy tells concern
ing Mr. Gladstone, in his recently pub
liislled RENT lfscenceS,s gives an ANUS
ing illustration Of unconscious plag-ar-
Ism. It IS wecl known that Mr.. Nc
Carthy7 always had great difficulty In
preparing a speech or lecture or spok-
en address of any kind; whatever he
wanted to say had to be said on the
spur Of the moment. During heated
debate on Irish administration Mr.. Nc
Carthy made a speech which closed
with a direct peCEclal appeal to NJ
Gladstone's we'll proved sympathIes
with the caTse of any oppressed ma
tforaIity, and called upon him to come
cut of the old roUs.ine track Of mechan-
zeal statecraft and to do justice to Ire
land. Such a course, Mr.. Mccarthy
declared. would win for a man Of Glad
stones mature a triumph that would
be worth dying for.
''Then, says Mr. Mccarthy, Il broke
away and concluded wish the eloquent
words, and more, dt would be worth
having lived f3r' Now" continues
Mir. Mccarthy, Il have boldly called
these words eloquent, and so they
were, and 1 may say 50 without any
modest scrUp1e5, for UlfoIl-uC2l-ely the
eloquent WORDS were NJ mine" Mr..
Gladstone replied a. Cnce, and, While
ne dea-t severely with NJ. MJCarshy's
arguments he made Il very gracious
allucitJn to the words which had closed
the spa.sch. Mr.. Mccarthy naturally
felt delighted and proud, and it was
not Usntil after some days had passed
that this terrible truth came into his
mind. The words of his final impas-
stoned burst OF efoquenoa came from
the mouth of C.aveEhcJ15e, in Waltcr'
SCOTS Old Mortality
II hurr:edly turned to the particular
scene, and-yas, there they wsre, the

wrong moment, and w15Eia innccently
given out by me rs that moments in

uninterlional fraud. but Mr. Mccarthy

WAR ON THE BEEF TRUST.

Many careful students Cf economic
problems have maintained that the
trust, considered as an effort to pro-
mote the greed Of its organizers and ID
increase he burden of common hui
marty, contained the elements of its
own dissolution. Just SO soon, these
wise observers have contendsd, as the
operations Of a would-be monopoly be
came oppressive to society by incroas-
ing the cost of living or diminishing
the means of support for the working
man, there would be successful resist
ance to that particular form Of trust.
What looks like substantial evidence
of the correctness of this position is
the movement that is now organizing
among the recall butchers of New York
and other large cities to fight the beef
trust. or Big Five" as it is called
Tile beef trust embraces the Armour,
Swift, Morris, Cudahy and Schwarzs-
child & Sulzberger combination. This

ers of the country if they undertake.
as they declare to be their purpose, 20
make a thorough combination of their
own, and to fight the beef trust to :
finish, will be found most formid-
able antagonist. 1t is estimated by
the Leaders CT this movement that they
will be able TO raise at once from S15,-
5000 to $40 100000 to carry it out.
and they are confider. that later they
can get as many millions mora as may
be necessary. They say that it will
make no difference if the beef trust Of
fers. concessions and restores the old
standard prices. because, as they well
observe, if the butchers should aban-
don their plan to establish their own
slaughter houses the trust would soon
raise its prices again. This is a case
where money will talk. It is reported
that among the sources from which
the combined butchers expect 10 get
fins 1cial aid is John D. Rockefeller.
the Standard Oil magnate, who, it is
said, wants TO get even with Cudnhy,
one of the big Five who gave Mr.
Rockefeller a great deal of trouble in

the head of the Standard Gil trust
really does enter this fight against the
beef trust it will be dog eat dog with
