/NHAT WAS certainly an inter
asting speech made by Johr
Il y. Rockefeler--"th richest
man in the world" the New
York Sun calls him-on Tuesday even
ing before the young mems Bible class
of the Fifth Avenue Baptist church
in New York city, and reported at
length in the New York papers of yes
tCrCay. Its subject was the best ways
of giving, and the speaker told why,
in his numerous donations for relig-
ious, educational or charitable pur-
poses, he always makes it a condition
of his gift that others shall give in
total amount like sum. His idea
is to encourage liberality in others, to
stimulate the habit of cooperation in
worthy work. Suppose" said he,
the pump that stores water for the
city should work only the suction part.
The water would soon become stag
nant.' That sentence surrounds the
whole philosophy of giving.
But it, was personal touch in Mr.
ROckefellers little speech that we wish
more especially to call attention to.
II believe" said he, "a gift than which
no other is more valuable is the gift
of honest abor--siving a man steady
work. l am not an orator nor an edu-
Gator but Just business man. l did
not come here to make a speech, but
there is one. thing upon which l would
like to say word. | am engaged in
a business that for thirty years has
paid out each working day an average
of $4,000 to $4,000 in money. or about
$40 ,O00 to $2S.OO0.OO0 each year 10
lahorlng men. For thirty years of the
forty. that l was in that particular
business the aggregate SO paid was be-
tween $500, 100000 and 500, O0O. And
that ] regard as the best kind of Civ
ing"
Some OF the American people, some
living here in Scranton. have-very
foollshly, II appears to us-formed in
late years the habit of viewing with
distrust and a certain pretended con-
tempt and enmity men who give large
ly to their fellow men in the manner
to which Nh. Rockefeller refers. 1t
has become the fashion in some circles
to view in the employer of labor and
in the director of enterprises that
make possible the great conveniences
and comforts of civilization, shared by
the poor relatively to greater de-
gree thQn by the rich, public enemy
and a fit Target for demagogic denun,
citation and ridcula. Mr. Rockefeller,

proposed new First lcgiSla-
tive district to which ohiec-
tion is offered by number
of West side Republicans. is about 800
cpubican--puite as certainly Repub-
lcan as any district among the live
districts contemplated for Lackawan-
la county in the suggested reappor-
tionment measure.
1t is, of course, possible for such a
district to be carried by the Democrats,
but only through Republican dissen-
sions. Where the Republican nominee
is acceptable to the party-and under
lie direct primary system this ought
to be the rule--his election by a safe
plurality need not he regarded as
doubtful. When we remember how the
present normally Democratic Second
district has been carried repeatedly
by the Republicans, thanks to popular
nominations, thorough organization
and jealous party work, it does not
seem that there is much foundation
for the fears expressed by those who
object to the inclusion of the Twen-
tieth wald in the new First district.
The nassing of the strong Republi-
tan wards in one district, leaving the
other two city districts so close as to
require desperate campaigning in order
to carry them for the Republican
party, is hardly fair to the party at
large. We are pleased to notice that
many influential Republicans on the
West Side appreciate this. They
would be justified in obiccting if it
were proposed to destroy their chances
of victory. Eut such proposition has
not been made and would rot be en-
tertainel
