Money Tn MT Is Tainted.

Lecturing before the Philadelphia
Society of Ethical Culture Mr.. John A.
Hobson, English economist and sociol-
ogist, said:
Carnegie, Rockefeller and Rhodes,
made rich by corrupt bargains with Of
flee holders, monopoly. of oil wells and
pipe lines, control of law courts and
politicians, avoidance of taxes, ruth
less crushing of independent dealers,
control of markets by trusts, tariff
protection purchased-is it safe and
good to take charity from such men as
these?"
This is the question, put i'll a slight
ly different form by Prof. Bascom,
which is now agitating the pulpit and
press of the country. However it may
be settled it is certain that the power
to advance prices, which these trust
barons usually exercise just after they
have announced to the world that they
are about to give charity to some insti-
tuition, should be taken from them. 1t
is noticed that they collect from the
the people, in enhanced prices, several
times the amount to be given in char
ity. If, after being shorn Of the power
over prices, they SHOULD continue to
give millions to subsidize colleges and
e~nslave the professors, we might be
more ready to give them some credit
for their action, and not suspect that
their charity was a cloak to cover their
sin OF monopoly and extortionate

our part, without previous notifica-

which tried to force the entrance.
After a fight lasting an hour, during
which the fort used only four guns,
the Panther was obliged to abandon
the fight, and retreated in the direc-
