Rate Regulation.

When the Ohio Republicans met In
State convention, with Secretary TAFT
Of the War Department to guide, con-
troll and illuminate their deliberations,
they spoke up in their platform for the
enforcement of the statutes prohibiting
railway rebates. They steered clear
OF the proposal to clothe the Interstate
Commerce Commission with power to
make railroad rates. Not one word on
this subject was included in their plat
fern.
Now the Democrats Of Ohio have held
their State convention, with the Hon.
Tom L. JOHNSON Of Cleveland and the
circus tent in possession. They, too,
are in favor Of the enforcement OF the
law against rebates. Besides this, they
urge the passage of Federal statute
granting to the Interstate Commerce
Commission power to annul "unreason-
able rates and impose on transporta-
ton corporations reasonable sched-
ules OF charges.
The Ohio Republicans are united, sue
cessful, intrenched in popular favor.
The Ohio Democrats are torn by internal
conflict, discredited, defeated. From
the latter comes the cry for Government
rate regulation.
Is this the demand of the American
people for Government management
Of private business?

figuring out tho probable influence Of an
increased volume Of gold on the current
prices OF commodities. The general
opinion seems to be that gold will be
cheaper, because more abundant, and,
in consequence, that the prices of COM

please the distinguished gentleman

A Splendid Benefa ctiOn.

The gift of one million dollars to the
endowment fund of Yale University by
Mr.. JOHN DAWSON ROCKEFELLER, an
nounced on Wednesday, was followed
Yesterday by the gift by him of ten mil
lions of dollars ito promote compre-
hensive system of higher education in
the United States" and especially in
colleges as distinguished from the great
universities. Moreover. it is announced
that if the fund proves as useful as is
now anticipated Mr.. ROCKEFELLER will
undoubtedly make large additions to it
in future years,
Mr.. ROCKEFELLER therefore has made
himself the most munificent contributor
for the higher education in the history
of mankind. Mr.. CARNEG1E's pension
fund OF ten millions for the benefit of
retired college professors was given for
practically the same purpose; but his
gifts for public libraries, so great in the
aggregate, serve rather the ends OF popu-
lar instruction specifically. Mr.. ROCHE
FELIER's contributions, apart from those
which were for distinctively religious
purposes, have been for college and uni
versity education almost wholly. His
theory seems to be that the best and
truest benefit that can be bestowed on
society is to provide for it teachers COM
petent to lead it by reason of their SUI
peror education. BY teaching the teach
ers he would teach the public.
His gifts to the Chicago University
especially had already aggregated ten
millions of dollars before his contribu
ton of million to Yale, and, yesterday,
of ten millions to the General Education
Board to which body he had given
million at the time of its organization two
years ago. Besides these the aggregate
of his gifts to colleges is large.
Ten millions of dollars is large en-
dowment, but relatively to the demands
which will be made by American colleges
it will yield an income which will seem
small. Consequently there is good reason
to assume that the large additions in
future years will be required.
The more or less silly discussion about
tainted money" which has been going
on does not alter the splendid fact that
JOHN DAWSON ROCKEFELLER is the most
munificent contributor for the spread of
the higher education in the history of
mankind

JEWS AND COUNTRY HOTELS.
A DISCRIMINATE ton Denounced ~ Un.Amcri.
ean and Illegal,

To THE EDITOR or TEE SUS-Sir: The
action of certain proprietors OF summer resort
hotels in sending out pamphlets. circulars ana
other advertlsino matter in which announce
ment Is made that Jews are not desired as
guests, or containing what Ia equivalent.
that "gentiles only" are welcome, raises again
the question whether this discrimination
against class Of citizens by persons who
receive the right to carry on their business
from the State should not be made an offense
punishable by law. Such suggestion Is
made the more plausible by the fact that
hotelkeepers have asked and received from
the State special laws comforting extraordi-
nary privileges upon them and that without
these privileges, granted by all the citizens.
including the Jews. they would find IL next to
impossible to conduct their bushes sue
cessfully.
That those hotekeepcrs who indulge in
this practise are not. az Il rule. actuated by
personal feeling. but only by the sordid com
mercial instinct which leads them to believe
that Haunting the flag of prejudice will bring
to them the patronage OF the prejudiced snobs
and pharisees who unfortunately exist in
every community. does not affect the issue.
Neither does the fact that some Jews may be
obnoxious persons devoid OF manners and
unpleasant to meet. The law should grant
the hotelkeeper the right to expel all persons
whose conduct renders them obnoxious: 1t
should make 1t misd emeanor. punishable by
fine and Imprisonment. for him TO refuse &C.
commodation to any well behaved citizen or
TO make any announcement OF discrimina-
ton based upon any grounds whatsoever.
1t Is the duty OF the State to exert every
influence which will tend to bring together
the various elements OF which 1t is formed,
and to put down wherever possible anybody
who seeks to keep them apart. Prejudice
cannot be allaycd or regulated by LEGISLATION,
but the legislator can at least prevent the use
OF the States license for the profit OF those
who would turn the existence OF prejudice
to their personal advantage. This is subject
which certain Senators might well ponder
during their summer vacation.
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN,
NEW YORK. June 80.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1905-07-01

The United States Treasury accounts
for the fiscal year ending with yesterday
show deficit of approximately s25, 00o,-
900. This balance on the wrong side is
not the result of decreased revenues.
The revenues for 19O4-05 were 81 900, 900
In excess of those for 10000 Increased
expenditures account for the loss shown
by the Treasury. 1t took in s543, 900, 600
in the wear. and its expenditures were
about s56s, 100000.
This showing is worse than Secretary
SHAW predicted, and it is better than
some less optimistic prophets foretold.
IT is not particularly alarming, but con-
servative business administration would
bc pleased to see receipts and expendi-
lures practically balance. How can
this be brought about? The Washing
ton dispatches say:
!. Various plans for increasing receipts have been
proposed and In the Treasury at least they have
been scriously considered. One suggestion was
70 revive the stamp tax on bank checks and other
negotiable paper. Several million dollars could
be raised from this source. Another proposition
Is to impose tax on coffee hve cent tax on
this commodity. 1t Is estimated would yield about
s3s,OooOoo year. Slll another Is to Increase the
tax on beer"
While some persons believed the
deficit would be from s35,OOO,o0O to
$40, 900, 900, and Secretary SHAW thought
It would be only sls,0OO,OO0, all hands
were at work thinking up new schemes
OF taxation. The old fashioned idea of
making expenditures meet income, in
stead Of making income meet expendi-
lures, has not received thought.
