Nothing of the kind. The Burlington

THE RIGHT TO TALK

Every man has right to express his
ideas and opinions on all subjects. hut
he must take the consequences. The
general truth that the judgment one pass
es upon others is passed by others upon
him includes the specific truth that If
one condemns his neighbors. his neigh
bors viii condemn him. 1t is this fact
that makes the life Of the preacher and
teacher a hard one.
A st. Paul preacher may hold forth
in strongest words upon the vice of Sod
ON and Gomorrah and Minneapolis. but
he IS on dangerous ground if he declares
that among his own pewholders the same
vices flourish. An instructor whose line
IS sociology may hold fast and express
openly the belief that certain conditions
existing among the people caused the
downfall of ancient kingdoms, but he
would perhaps lose his position if he in
sisted that the dominant political Marty
OF his state was responsible for identical
conditions at home professor in tba
University of Chicago would not last
until next pay day If he denounced the
Standard Oil company; a professor in a.
Colorado college who should denounce free
silver as national peril would be look
ing for employment next day; a preacher
in Alabama who should follow an able
discourse on the brotherhood of man bv
inviting a coIored man to dine with him
would be cast into outer darkness. And
so it goes.
The right of free speech is exercised at
The peril Of the speaker. An instance
in illustration is THAI of the professor in
The Northwestern university at Evanston
H. Prof James T. Hatfield affects to
hold the new rich in scorn, and from mis-
pedagogic throne ventured to make COM

DIPLOMATIC MAN.

The Rev. DR.. John Henry BarrOws,
president of Oberlin college, who former
Iy preached to a Chicago congregation,
tells a little story concerning an expert
ence of his own that may be worth pass
ing along. 1t was a the time when Dr
Barrows was making arrangements for
the holding Of the great congress OF re-
ligiOns here. He had an immense CORE
spOndence to take care Of and found it
necessary to employ a stenOgrapher. The
young woman was pretty. 1t is not to be
inferred that there are any but pretty
girl stenographers, but the one employed
by DR.. Barrows was especially comedy
The doctor fitted up a wOrkroom on
the third floor OF his house, where he and
the stengrapher toiled hard day after day
,Indisturbed by callers and well away
from the noises of the street.
The work of preparing for the con-
gress was still going forward on the 18th
of February, when The Doctors little son
became excited over the sending and rg-
ceiying Of valentines. The boy had been
running about the neighbOrhOod handing
love tokens to the children he knew ana
many had come to him, when ne remem-
Dered that he had a father up on the
third floor, III addition to the one in
heavel. Going to his mother he prOpOs-
ed that they send mp a valentine.
Well" said Mrs. RarrOws, 1T is very
nice Of you to remember your father.
How would it do for me to write Il Wall
entine for him and let you take it Up?'
the boy was delighted at the idea and
his mother wrote upon d sheet Of pax
per:
please kiss the bearer"
This she placed in an envelope, which
was properly sealed and addressed to the
doctor The boy started UP stairs with
his valentine, but he had been running
around q good deal during The morning.
and his legs were weary. When he had
reached the second floor he met the pref
u stenographer, who had started out
after postage stamps or something, and
asked her Il she wouldn't be kind enough
to hand the note to his father.
She took the envelope gave the Child q
pat en- the cheek, ana ran back TIP stairs.
where perhaps prompted by feminine GU
riOsity-5he waited while Or. BarroWs
opened his valentine and read in his
Wife's handwriting:
Please kiss the bearer"

IF the Northern Pacific wanted any
thing today it would he financed by your
house, would it not?" asked Mr.. Lamb.

been made?"

Morgan Wanted the Burlington.
Mr.. Morgan said the Northern Pacific
had not been controlled by any other
railway since 1886. Since that time it's
value had steadily increased. The Great
Northern to a certain extent was a COM
petitor of the Northern Pacific.
]. P. Morgan & Co. received no COM
mission for financing the retirement Of

Concerning the Burlington purchase, the
witness said he had made up his mind
that the Northern Pacific ought to have
an Eastern terminal in Chicago. He talk
ed the matter over with all the persons
interested and they agreed He said there
We're but three lines available, the Wis
consin Central the Burlington and the
st. Paul. The first, he said, he would not
have.
81 wanted the st. Paul" said Mr. Nor
gan. ''and Hill wanted the Burlington, and
finally the Burlington was selected. 1t
was the chief desire of Mr. Hill that the
Great Northern should have terminal in
Chicago. I desired the same for the
Northern Pacific. There was nothing
secret at all about the operations. Mr..
Hill made the negotiations. The price Of
$500 a share for the Burlington stock was
demanded by the Burlington directors;
and I told Mr.. Hill by all means to take
it,
Mr.. Morgan was asked what the basis Of
valuation Of the stock was and replied
that the stock was worth that amount
for the purposes Tor which it was wanted.
