MT. Carneuie's Temple of Peace.

MT. Carnegie's offer of $1,500, 1000 to Holland for the purpose of providing a temple and library for the international court of arbitration will carry his name to all parts of the earth and perhaps be memorial to his memory through out many ages. He is charged with being monument builder, even a seeker of fame while living, but the truth is he Is dispensing the vast for tune, won by virtue of high tariff, in most useful and beneficent manner. No other philanthroplst is doing as well, and criticism of his acts is out of place. No e at any rate will be apt to criticise his gift in behalf of national arbitration anu peace.
 Some of the libraries that MT. Car negie has caused towns to establish might better have been built without his aid, thereby making the burden of their maintenance more nearly fit pub lie needs, and his great gifts to the Scottish university are regarded in many quarters as hurtful to the inde- pendence and worth of Scottish char acter, but no objections will be heard to his later gifts to ,Tuskegee or to the government of the netherlands. The nations are not exactly beggars, and they could without difficulty provide a temple for ther own courts, but still they might not do it, and MT. Carne- gie's gift will go a long way towards the maintenance of the court and the suggestion of it's usefulness to the nations The trouble all along has been that the nations ignored too much their own court, but when the court has a permanent home and library it may win it's way to favor among the nations.
