u tho earnest effort made
4. few years ago by the George
Washington Memorial asso-
the founding of national university
on lines marked to some degree III
President WashinGton's annual mes
saGeS To congress and in his will This
city was one of those in which especial
cndeavor WAS made by the association
To stir public sentiment to the point
of pctiticning congress to found ma
tional university under governmental
management and control. The later
discussion of the subject in the annual
meetings of the National Educational
association, and those of the Associa-
ton of American Universities, bringing
new suggestions as to what might be
a better way than the founding of
university under governmental control
and patronage, carried the proposed
scheme into more practical and useful
development.
When President Washington urged il
no one foresaw the development of
Harvard, Yale, Pennsylvania and
Princeton into splendid universities.
Still less did he or any one else fore
see that in a few years President JEFF
ferson would add an empire of amaz-
ing extent 10 the territory of the young
republic. Nor could the development
of that eNecutivcly governed territory
into territories, and presently into
Statps wherein long hafore The copturv
closed, other great universities would
arise be foreseen. Moreover, the years
and the experience that came with
them demonstrated that while it was
we'll that common schools should be
sustained by public funds under state
let alone by government.
On the other hand, as the nation has
grown il has become the possessor of
national resources for the increase of
both specific and general knowledge,
for the prosecution of scientific and
historical research, that should be
made available to a far greater extent
than any way had hitherto been found
for so making them. 1t was the Wash.
mgton Academy OF Sciences, its men,
bership composed of the leading men
of science connected With the govern
ment, that saw the way to make the
movement started by the George
Washington Memorial association a
practical one by directing it into an

Money Article, Headed

| TS ~ " YORK SUN
Money Article, Headed
The Financial situation
published each Monday, has for Is
years been looked for with the great
| est interest in banks and counting
rooms and among all financial men,
and has been respected as perhaps
the most intelligent review of the
money market and stock market. In
this article, Monday, June 3, the
Sun in the course of review of the
business and condition Of the South
western Railway systems says: "An-
other potent influence affecting Atch-
inson for good is the oil discoveries.
People here have not paid as much
attention to this matter as they
should. The general tendency has
been to scout it as craze. But
there is no longer any doubt that it
represents permanent and almost
incalculable increase Of wealth to the
Southwestern territory, and hence,
inevitably, to the Atchinson, South
ern Pacific and other railroads in that
section. These railroads will gain
much by the additional business
generally growing out Of the new de-
velopment, but their chief product
will be in the astonishing saving
rendered possible to them in the cost
of fuel. A ton of coal in oil does not
cost over ST., whereas the coal used
by the Southern Pacific and Atchin-
son railroads last year cost between
SO and 50 a ton. AS the expendi-
ture for this purpose is nearly 25
per cent of the total cost of trans
portation on the roads, the import
ance of the new found economy is
apparent. It means millions of dol
lars to these railroad properties"
This article fairly represents the
trend of thought toward the oil in
dustry among capitalists generally.
The magnitude of the industry and
it's Importance as source of wealth
is perhaps not yet appreciated by the
general public, but the leaders in
finance recognize fully that oil and
it's numerous by-products is to cut a
great and constantly growing fig
ure in our domestic and export trade,
the extent Of which is already colos-
sal.
To make money in oil it is only
necessary to discriminate carefully
and invest in stock of companies
that are under practical and respon-
sible management and have large
holdings of oil lands secured at low
prices. THE PACIFIC COAST AND
TEXAS OH. COMPANY is such a
corporation and this stock offers the
best opportunity to investors of any

y A RECENT issue of the st.
Louis Post dispatch we find an
Il interesting explanation of the
recent strike of operatives in
the National Cash Register company's s
model factory at Dayton. O. AS our
readers know, this establishment has
Icen looked upon the world over as
cmbodying in its architecture and lib
cral management the most advanced
ideas in the treatment of la Dor The
employees in ii received good wages.
The union rate for polishcrs in Day
ton was $3.50. Tho employees of tho
cash register concern received $3.50 II
day. Foundrymcn. before the union
established a $3.50 rate per day earned
from 81 to 81 II day. other labor was
paid in proportion.
But aside from wages, which were
generous. the employees of the cash
register concern were treated most
muniticently. They were on friendly
terms with their employers. They en-
joycd privileges and comforts enjoyed
by no other considerable body Of en-
piDN'S III inc Ntllu. IHcy were lui
nishcd with suitable clothing in which
to work. They were given Il good mid
day lunch at the expense of their en-
rloycrs. They had libraries, rest
rooms. pianos, lecturcs-all given
them by their employers. They were
tiful Sunday schools were organ
lied among them. They had any
number of literary and scientific So
cieties. fine kindergartens and many
other things. all of these secured to
them through the efforts of the men
tor whom they worked.
Notwithstanding this. because four
moulders We're discharged on May 4
for incomptency, 1000 working people
went on strike and remained out OF
work for nearly six weeks losing
nearly a million dollars in wages. The
tators who sighted their work in order
to foment trouble. one of thoi,
grievances which they worked up
among the factory hands was that the
washing of the companN'S towels,
which We're furnished free to the en-
ploycs, was given to poor women in
the neghborhood and not to Unip,
laundries. Another was that the door
springs used on the factory doors to
prevent jarring were of non union
manufacture. They had to be re-
moved. Various other petty gricv-
ances We're trumped up from time to
time until the management of the
factory was confronted with the prob
lem of whether it was going to retain
control of its own works or yield it To
committees of the unions. When this
issue Was drawn over the discharge of
the four objectionable mouldcrs, the
operatives struck and closed the
plant down, but we understand that
they have since returned to work on
the company's conditions.
