WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK
Chamber Membership Case.

No one who is acquainted with the
facts Of the case could be surprised at
your rather severe-but by no means too
severe criticisms on some of the di-
rectors'' Of the Chamber Of Commerce in
Tuesdays JournaI The rules Of the
Chamber are considered. or have been
considered, about as perfect as they could
be made, and we can i'll afford to lose our
fair name over such small matter as
this, viz, the searching for and buying Of
a few stray memberships by candlelight.
There is one fact that should be made
known, and it is for that purpose am
writing this. Not all the directors by any
means countenanced this sharp practice
as 1t is called, and they are the ones who
feel it most. That the course taken by
the few was taken before they seriously
considered the matter is generally adj
n1itted. That being so, all they have to
do now is to admit this fact by paying
a fair market value for the few member
ships they bought and thereby retain the
name of the honorable board of directors

Charles M. Crittenton is one of the
most successful Of the New York
wholesale druggists. He advertises
quite a number of proprietary rene
dies, among them the Hale's Honey
of Hoarhound and Tar, which has a
very large sale turnout the east. The
Crittenton company also handles
quite number of foreign prepara-
tons which are advertised over their
name.
Mr.. Crittenton is a very wealthy
man and is now spending most of his
time In the establishment of the Flor
all the profits from his enormous
business are put into this noble work.
1t is very seldom that we find a sue
cessful business man giving practical
ly all of His time and profits to work
of this character.
When man with an income of
sec, 900 a year gives up his business,
gives up his handsome residence,
gives up his place, or largely so,
among business men, and goes out
into the world to try his best to save
the fallen, to rescue the periShing.
he becomes at once a marked man !;
people want to know more about him.
There are not many men who are
giving all their income In charity.
There is but one man in this coun-
TRY who makes his home in his pri-
vate car-all the home he has-who
goes out not to make money, but to
help others: who lives not for HIM
self, but for those who are lost to
society, Charles N. Crittenton is doing
what may we'll be regarded as IN many
respects the grandest work of not this
age alone, but of all ages.

The Lawson Revelations.

The revelations Thomas W.~Law-
son is making thru Everybody's Mag
azine, about the operations of high
finance" in general, and the Stand
ard Oil trust in particular, will at
least arrest public attention It is a
story of shameless greed. Of high.
handed extortion and of robbery as
criminal and. daring as. ever was COM
mitted by masked men at the. pistofs
point e Shameful as are such revela-
tons, they will not have been made In
vain if the public can be aroused to
a realizing sense of the outrage and
made to cooperate for some proper
plan of correction of the abuses de-
scribed.
The Lawson exposures show, thus
far, that the great combinations Of
capital of this country are utterly de-
void of conscience and cannot.-be
reached by the ordinary appeals for
fair play and right. Men who in pri-
vate life are pillars Of churches and
widely known for their gifts to char
ity, who are, model husbands and
fathers, and whose hearts are quickly
and deeply touched by sorrow and
suffering, become, by some miracle,
the very embodiment of selfish cruelty
when united in some great corpora
ton. *
Among the causes for this peculiar
condition is the inherent weak
IF
bility to resist some forms of tempta-
ton, and it's inclination to pursue an
advantage, particularly of a merce-
nary sort, along the lines of least re-
| sistance to an extravagant limit. Mr..
Lawson says, speaking of the Stand
ard Oil corporation:4S2..~ -, : ri-r~4 II rt.,<4
ut has from it's birth to the pres
ent writing been responsible for more
!. hell than any other trust or financial
thing since the world began. Because
culable losses and have suffered un-
told miseries."
We are prepared to accept what Mr.
Lawson says as true, and yet WE
charge the responsibility not so much
against the men who compose thai
corporation as against the laws an6
customs of the country which have
made the corporation a possibility.
! The expose may be read by all with
much profit. 1t will undoubtedly have
! an important influence on public sen:
timent, end in that way pave the way
to effective action by congress. Reat
history Of the Standard Oil trust
what Mr.. Lawson says comes home
with peculiar force to the public, ant
emphasizes the demand for action.

The American Conscience in Mis-
80 as..n Ill souri,. &a-

We Americans may be, well adj,
vanced on the broad road that leads
to destruction, but every little while
something happens to show that we
are not past the point of voluntary
redemption. We may be sliding, but
our momentum has not yet reached.
such a point that we cannot check
our descent.
The nomination Of Joseph w. Folk
by the democrats for the governor
ship of Missouri is one of those. Incl
dents that give hope for the future.
Mr.. Folk is no machinist. His only
previousg connection with politics
showed that he lacked d nessof the.
cardinal qualities Of machine political
leadership: The political color of the
criminal offender did not make any
difference in his appearance to Mr..
Folk. All criminals looked alike to
him. Thru Mr.. Folks activity CON
siderable portion Of the democratic
leadership Of St. Louis and Missouri
has been convicted Of crime or ex-
posed to the contempt of the nation.
Naturally, these Inundated and
whipped leaders hate Mr.. Folk. Nat
urally, they have done their best to
terrify, to defeat hin1--and some of
them doubtless have even pondered
on assassination. s
With no machine except the ma
chinery of public opposition; to polit-
ical corruption; with no organization
except the natural rallying Of the
| people to honor the man who had
protected them and hunbled their
enemies, Mr.. Folk has succeeded in
beating the bosses in the most boss
ridden state in the union.
Four or five years ago Mr.. Folk
was an unknown attorney in st. Louis
His very obscurity was one Of the rea-
sons that made him city attorney
and uninf1uential he would be sub
missive agent once they had placed
i him in office. 1t turned out that Mr.
| Folk had some crude and primitive
notions about 9public office. He wa:
so verdant as to suppose that, being
employed and paid by the. people, i
was his duty to serve them rather
than the particular organization tina
had been chiefly instrumental in put
ting him in. office. Instead of being
/ weak, he turned out to have will o
adamant;i instead Of being submits
sive, he proved to be an aggressiv,
champion of the law. Instead of be
ing the tool of a dirty group Of po
litical brigands, he became the ire
sistible engine of Justice.

hurriedly. He had taken rooms in an

The War News.

One Of the striking facts in con-
nection with the war in the east is
the unreliability of the news con-
corning 1t. A small army of CORE
spondents,n representing the great
dailies of the World, is near the scene
of conflict, and the high intelligence
and wide experience of it's personnel
ought to be pledge of great eff
cheney and accuracy. But it is not.
Journalism has kept pace with the
progress Of the world, and there is
now no corner of the habitable globe
into which it may not go at will, and,
if unhanpered, make disclosure Of
all essential facts. 1t is this very
efficiency which is acting as a him
drance In the far east today. Jap
anese and Russian commanders alike
agree in suppressing information, and
this fear Of publicity. went so far in
the earlier months of the war as to
keep the correspondents BOTTLED up"
in Toxic; for the enterprise and re-
sources of the journalism Of today
would, If unn1olested, block the plans
of the greatest commander. Rein
forced by the cable and telegraph,
these qualities operate to Illustrate
the very plans they are intended to
advance. 2 @f#ssss IL
The older generation Of today will
remember how frequently the strategy
Of the great union generals during
the American civil war was foiled by
the insatiate and sunreasoning demand
of northern people for the latest and
most reliable information regarding
the movement Of troops and the plans
of campaigns. Public sentiment in
dorsed this, demand because the hus-
bands, fathers, sons and brothers of
the country were engaged in the con-
flict. But it was mistake, and Grant
always insisted that if he could have
kept his plans to himself and pre-
vented advance information as to his
movements from reaching the enemy,
the war might have been materially
shortened and much bloodshed pre-
vented.
What was true during our civil war
would be true in Korea and Manchu-
ria today, We're the war correspond
ents permitted to come close enough
to the scene Of active operations tic
forecast the future and accurately de-
Bcribe existing conditions. With ia.
eilities for securing information which
were unknown during the early six,
ties, journalism would now be able
almost in a single night. to overthrow
plaDs which had baep in coursa ~
preparation for months.
Japan and Russia are following the
proper course. The world would bt
glad to know what is going on in the
far east Tt would be glad to know
something Of the plans 4of the com
manding officers, and of the detail
which are being worked out unde
them. But it is better as it is.
Some word Of this kind should b
spoken, so that the public may un
derstand why it is that the newspa
pers are carrying SO many conflict
ing and patiently unreliable and un
satisfactory stories regarding arm
war correspondents Its due to tn
very proper fear which the belliger
ents have of the effect of publicity o
their plans. The increasing efficien
cy of Journalistic enterprise make
this fear all the greater.
In acknowledgment of the logic {
the situation, many newspapers hav
recalled their correspondents, an

Sir Mortimer Durand, British ambassa-
dor to the United States, tasted his first
mint julep the other day while in Wins
chester, Va. The seductive beverage made
