A, newspaper is an educator; there are
all kinds of educators, but the man who
spends money judiciously aud literally
is better able to iuIpait his knowledge
than the man who has little or nothing
to spend.
The Sun is the highest type of a news
paper.
THE Suns reports from all parts of the
United States are unsurpassed.
The Suns Cable Service is the finest
known; the troubles in the Philippines
and in South Africa demand competent
correspondents and vast expenditures OF
money and labor in getting the news.
When you get THE Sun you get news and
Intelligent presentation of facts with il,
as well as carefully prepared articles oi
editorial writers Ct highest standing.
When you read daily paper, whose
principal recommendation is its cheap
ness, you get the dregs-generally very
poor dregs at that.

In deserts where no men abide,
Thou must have uncommended died.

And not blush so to be admired.

THE students of Mr.. Rockefeller's Chi
cago University, and the students Of all
universities and colleges throughout the
country, owe debt of gratitude to Presi-
dent Harper for his courage and frank
ness in telling them the truth about the
prospects of those intellectual careers for
which college education was originally
designed.
The "learned professions are now four
in number, the traditional triad of "law,
physic, and divinity" being supple
mented by pedagogy, and all four of
these professions, DIR. Harper says, are
now overcrowded to the starvation point.
This is the seamy side Of our brilliant
college prosperity, and it is painfully
close to the truth. And if the only re-
suit of college education weIe to crowd
professions already overcrowded, there
would be less cause for congratulation
in the continually increasing attendance
upon our higher institutions of learning.
But the fact is that steadily growing
proportion of young men enter college
with other ends in view. Science, litera-
ture, journalism, art, architecture, engi-
neering, business-all these are recruit
e6 from college men who seek culture
both for its own sake and for the better
equipment which it will give them for
their life's work.
A college course, whatever its ultimate
purpose, is mainly useful in leading out
ana training young mans faculties
and enabling him to ''make the most Of
himself in any calling that he may
follow,

Judge MaEOOn, the Law officer
of the Department.

Now that Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Bristow's report has been made
public the arrest of ex-Drector General of
Posts Rathbone, at Havana. may soon fol-
low. 1t is intimated at the Post Office De-
partment that the delay in arresting Mr.
Rathbone has been due to desire to await
the statement of the results IF Mr. Bris-
tow's investigation, and also to a wish to
give Mr.. Rathbone every opportunity to ex-
plain items which the report saws are unac-
counted for.
POSTMASTER General Smith and Fourth
Assistant Bristow decline to discuss the
matter.
The Postmaster Generals letter of trans
initial of the report to Secretary Root calls
particular attention to two important noints
IN the case against Mr.. Rathbone on which
the latter's expected arrest probably will
De mainly based. In this letter Mr.. Smith
says: " N-'''''
1t further shows that E. G. Rathbone
iate director general of posts, drew two
warrants of $500 each. on which he himself
op.t,Iiieu the money, and that no account or
eApIaHauon mas been rendered; that he ap-
propflated per diem of 81 for several
months after II had been expressly prohih
tted by the Postmaster General, and that
ne incurred extravagant and uniustifiable
expenditures of a personal character MAX
nue." P"i ieNe-
