John ID. Rockefeller. Jr. Brown 81,
spoke before the Brown university Y.
NJ. c. A. last night In Manning hall He
spoke on Business as a Life Work. .
He said:
Many men OF today think that dis
honesty is the best policy and that busi-
ness and Christianity are diametricaliy
opposed to each other We have come
here for the purpose OF expressing the
belief that they may go hand in hand,
and that the most successful business men
can be. should be, and are the most sue
cessful Christian men.
II do not refer TO those men wh~ are
successful through the employment Of
unfair methods. / refer rather TO those
men whose success Is built upon integ-
rity. Let us see IL the vital principles OF
each do not apply TO both Christianity
and business
Let US first consider honesty. Busi-
mes is not dishonest. There are adulter-
ations and limitations in business, but
they are successful only so long as they
are unknown, and the public soon refuses
firm which failed on account OF uues-
tonable methods employed by It, That
firm was rsorganized on a sound prin-
ciple and with sound methods and IL was
thereafter successful.
Business could never be carried on
were it not for the credit system. The
credit system is based on confidence, and
confidence is based on honesty.
II am thoroughly convinced that the
truly successful man must be honest. An
employer makes this the first requisite
in hiring his help.
After honesty, let us consider indus
try. Industry. like honesty, is an essen
tial in business life and in Christian ac-
tivity. The founder OF the Christian re-
ligion was unquesuonably a most in
dustrious man.
Likewise perseverance lis requisite
and Is fully exemplified I'm the lite Of
christ Last OF all, the element of jus
uce In business concerns us.
We might say that a man often sue
ceeds In business by closing up smaller
firms. Oltentimes we cannot reconcile
tins tact 1t seems TO us contrary TO the
golden rule. Nevertheless, II is true that
the corporation forces the weaker rival
to 20 out OF business with the result,
however, that through economy and the
TeuuCeu cost Oh pfOuucuOn, When the
principle really works. the decreased
consumption price beCdmes a greaT Dene-
mt To all. IL Is. therefore, the greatest
good TO the greatest number.
Consider whether IL is better TO use
modern means OF turning out products,
doing better what we do and doing much
more. or for a larger number TO be en-
gagged I'm smaller number OF industries,
which are being conducted IN old
fashioned methods. The modern methods
should be employed even at the expense
OF the few
The American beauty rose can only be
produced in It's splendor and fragrance
which brings cheer TO It's beholder by
sacrificing the early buds which grow
up around a..
1T Is not an evil tendency in business.
IL Is merely the working out Of law OF
nature and a law OF God. There is no
real divergence between business and tho ,
Christian life. The Christian world needs
the ability of the business man. his wis
iom and pre-emlnent strength. IL needs
also his financial help.

General Gossip.

: The Chicago rnter-Ocean today says:
Andrew Freedman, John T. Brush and
FranksDa Haas Robinson did make re.
peated and strenuous efforts to force their
trust scheme on their FELLOW mssnates
at the last annual mestingS of the M
tionai league. Furthermore. they threat
ened to break away from the league un-
less II was recognized on their own lines.
Nick Young has issued the official
stenographic report of what really did
happen at that tumultuous meeting in
New York. IL reveals the fact that
Freedman and Brush and Robinson had
been hguring on Transforming the league
into trust for at least two years
Robinson's plan was TO capitalize the
league for 5i.0OoO0. Freedman did not
take kindly 10 the plan at hrst. but
changed his mind and became an earnest
champion OF the scheme Barney Drey-
fuss refused to sign and told Brush at
the time that the Pittsburg club would
never enter into such a deal
Finding that the Chicago. BROOKLYN.
Pittsborg and Philadelphia clubs refused
10 consider the scheme, Freedman said
that unless the league was reorganized
on business basis he would take New
York out OF the circuit. Robinson said
ST. Louis would cult. and Brush that
Cincinnati would follow suit
After lengthy wrsngle the msgnates
settled down 10 the task of electing a
president A. @. Spalding was the only
candidate nominated. Chicago Brooklyn,
philadelphia and Pittsburg voted esior
him. while Freedman. Brush, Robinson
and soden deposited slips Of paper, on
which was written the word No Rogers
later nominated Soden Of Boston, who
declined the honor Rogers then nomi-
mated A. r. Mills. Then Freedman pre-
sented Nick Youngs name. and the NOM
inations were again closed The next
ballot stood Spalding four and Young

The Nome nugget., 1902-06-28
ERA OF. LEGITIMATE MINING.

It is healthy indication for the development of the mining resources of this section of Alaska that although some twenty hundred men have landed on the shores of Nome this spring, but very few of the number remain in town. The rest have scattered over the country and busily preparing to. open mp mining claims in various districts. Never before in the history of Nome ha. the min ing outlook been favorable at the present time Mining, a recognized industry is getting down to q legitimate business basis. The hurrah days have passed, to return. Men longer coming to Nome in the expectation of making fortune in mining in few brief months. They realize that it takes a. certain amount of capital to make a mining claim productive and stock, of patience, mingled with some faith. to enable, them to await results.
 The avidity, and eupidity may, add with which certain alleged miners follow the business should serve as an object lesson to the uniniated Ihe real miner does nCtexpect results to be attained without legitimate effort. The unreal miner-,he man without real knowledge of. the art-seems to think that mining is like farming in a fertile land the soil needs only to be ticked with the hoe and it laughs with the harvest. Time and experience, how ever make most of this class wise and :hey learn that golden wealth is not wresed from the bosom of Mother Earth without infinite toll and trouble Per haps too they learn too late that it is not worth the cost
 The valleys and hills all this portion of Northwestern Alaska alive with. men who are earnestly working that they may accomplish their object finding gold in hitherto unprospected places Capital is being employed on larger scale than at any time previously in the history of this region. That the returns vii! be encouraging there is no doubt. Northwestern Alaska's gold output will be greater this year than ever before. It will be n- creased largely next year with the completion of the various ditch enterprises now under way, and which will be completed this year, well by the cenl- pleon of the pumping plant of the Wild Goose Company, which in short time will be in active operation.
 There is, in our. opinion, every reason for tine people of Northwestern Alaska to be satisfied with the outlook, present. and future.
The Nome nugget., 1902-06-28

those stock jobbng, wildcat concerns, whose only apparent object seems to be the unloading of lot of waste, unprospected claims upon the innocent and unsuspecting, are a positive menace to legitimate mining and prospecting. The end cannot be. other than disastrous; while the promoters are roundly cursed the country is nevertheless bamed because of the interruptions unfounded and altogether un- warranted statements which, finding their way into type, profess to bear the imprint of truth,
 The NUGGET yields to none in its loyalty to- Alaska and her interests; it is ready at all times to lend the strongest encouragement and support to. o.egitimate effort but it would be recreant to its duty did it not protest against all attempts to make this section of Alaska field for the exploitation of mining schemes without merit of any kind.,
The Nome nugget., 1902-06-28
A CURSE TO A MINING COUNTRY.

The NUGCETs opinion of jumpers of mining or any other kinds of claims is well known. So is its opinion of those who do their assessment work in their cabins with the aid of q pen and a notary By far too many claims are held in this as we'll as other mining countries by false representation work" Vast areas, which might become profitable producers, in this way kept from being developed The result is that the holders profit nothing by their perjury and the development of the whole country is materially retarded and ground that. should be made profitable lies waste and useless.
 The sentiment in Northwestern Alaska is strongly against the jumper, as it should be. We have no use and we admit it cheerfully, for the man who wiluly jumps anothers claim, his only object being 10 obtain an opportunity to blackmail the rghtu out of few hundreds thousa nds of dollars There should be no room in ary country for such an individual. On the other hand, the man who is so lazy shftess and conscenceless to resort to per jury in order 10 do his assessment work, and thus save himself few days labor or the expenditure of paltry hundred dollars, is worse than the wilful jumper. The latter at least, shows tivity the former destroys his manhood forgets all morality and his bounden duty citizen, to hold by fraud and perjury that which is not hs.,
 The law relating to the performance of assessment work upon mining claims is loose, vague and .unsat isfactory It should bo clear ard simple that its actual performance should be at all times susceptible of rrefragable proof. The pen and the notary as performers of the required manual labor a mining claim are not.a success. They reek with abomna- tions practiccd under cover of law. The notary is not to blame however, neither is the pen, but the man who employs them for such purpose should be mathematical
