Peace for John d.

Peace, happiness. and comfort ought
TO be on tap at 26 Broadway today, in
grateful quantities. John D. Rookie
teller, gentleman Of whose exist
ence perhaps most newspaper readers
are now aware. is due for a large
quaff at the cup of JOY.
Prepared, as he must have been. for
daily outputs of vituperation like that
heaped on old Nero. he may now take
a deep breath of relief.
Miss IDA M. Tarbell has spoken an
other piece, and instead CT calling the
aged fnancier Mr.. Tainted Money
and charging him with all the crimes
known to Blackstone or Kent, she de-
votes aonvoluted argument to prove
that John D. has violated the Golden
Rule-simply this and nothing more
The oil magnate may cease to
tremble. In fact, he has occasion to
laugh. The Golden Rule is as much
out of fashion in some quarters as
the Constitution is in others. It is
a fiimsy sort of a stuffed club to use
and will leave few scars.

GENERAL HORACE PORTER
IN NEW YORK POLITICS
Suggested for Guternatorial Candidate.
Has Made No Enemies-Away
in Troublous Times.

That Gen. Horace Porter retiring
ambassador to France. may become an
active and important figure in Empire
State politics is intimated from New
York. General Porter is suggested In
fact, for the leadership of MS party in
next years gubernatorial campaign.
1t is pointed out that he is personally
popular, stands we'll in the party, and
has been out of the State during the
period in which present rather difficult
conditions have shaped themselves
Therefore he would be Objectionable TO
no faction and agreeable to all!
General Porter has been mentioned for
the presidency Of the EQuitabl Bile Ask led
about the report he declined TO discuss

1t is understood that he will soon visit
the President at Oyster Bay when mat

Good for Georgetown.

Georgetown University has under
taken to put It's athletics on the bass
or honest, pure, scholastic sport. The
admission that change in her old
methods was necessary to accomplish
this does not indict Georgetown as
worse than her sister institutions. 1t
is, instead, merely sign that George
town has the courage to recognize
condition to which many other col
Ieges are content to shut their ewes.
To achieve this purifying process,
the college authorities have adopted
certain stringent rules. 1t would be
enough to say of those rules that they
are as strict and as iIonciad as any
adopted anywhere else in the United
States. But one Of them merits par
ticular attention. Its purpose is to
prevent the playing of summer ball y
In effect it excludes from the Blue
and Gray athletic teams every student
WHO plays or has played summer
ball in vacation, except on his home
team and not for pay Competent Of
ficers of intercollegiate sport assert
that no other school has ever taken
so square a stand
Two results are expected from this
reform
One Is that the school will tenn
porarily lose athletic prestige through
its new rules. So many of its players,
present and prospective, will be ex7
Guided that it is thought the college
nust lose ground. If that proves true
neither the alumni nor the student
body ought to regret it a moment.
The gain in real sportmanship will
be twenty times as great.
The second result is that other col
leges OF the same grade, particularly
other local colleges, must surely fol-
low suit. There is no loss in self
respect through being beaten because
your sport is pure. But there IS an
enormous gain in self-respect In lead
ing movement to make sport pure.

Vulgar Moneu.

That the ridiculous spectacle of
Scott. the Death Valley miner. and his
purposeless, record breaking trip
across the continent may no, do some
good, who would say? That his in
discriminate and lavish abuse of
money is, however, as far as he is
concerned, criminal and vulgar, is
fairly plain. Certainly, he would
neither understand the attitude of
mind that criticises his performances
nor concern himself about the criti-
cisms If he understood them
His interest in the effect OF his
spectacular performances is probably
limited to the people of his own gap
ing class. and as for the rest of the
public: 20, the public be damned,

Scott, however, is only trifie more

jority of mankind are kept reasonably
decent by a discerning Providence
which denies them the means to make
egregious asses OF themselves.
Scott at present has money; it IS
doubtful if he could ever have wealth.

by-product OF our industrial system,

Where the Manu- Fail.

AS long as causes do not affect the
citizen personally they do not enlist
his support personally.
The local Fairgrounds drive this
home They are approved by the
whole body Of our people They have
the good will Of practically every
citizen. Their purposes and their
methods are alike commended. But
they are not supported as they would
be supported If the casual interest
of the many could be converted into
the personal interest of the few.
at twenty Fairgrounds in Wash
lhgton young women and young men
are giving their time freely. The
equipment with which these play
grounds are stocked-neither new
nor adeQuate-was provided largely
through their efforts. And the greater
portion of the money needed to hire
professional directors, to take care of
the equipment, and to buy new supplies
as fast as the old ones wear out, has
either been raised by them or con-
trlbuted by surprisingly small num-
Der of others. The masses have given
nothing save an occasional Good
enough"
Why is this? Why is it that a city
like Washington, where the people
earn probably the largest average
III the world, cannot raise SIS 900 for
the care of its own children?
The only satisfactory answer is that
the people Of Washington have not
learned yet to translate their interest
in public enterprises into works.
They have been accustomed too long
to let few carry the load. 1t NAV
be they have been too well trained
to think themselves outsiders in the
management Of their own city.
Now, the thing to do is to draw
these people of Washington out of
their shells. That is your task-for.
Of course, you are interested and ac-
tive-and the task of The Times. II
they could be persuaded to turn out
OF their courses on their way home
only the few squares necessary to visit
the nearest Fairgrounds, this task
would be accomplished For no one
ever yet saw those children at play,
with plenty Of room for their shouts
and plenty OF space for their games.
without wanting to catch ball him
self, just TO show them that there
was little life left in the old man
yet. And when once that spirit gets
into heart, the owner can be count
ed trustworthy friend of the play-
grounds.
This is serious business, this bust
ness OF Fairgrounds. 1t is no indefi-
mite project of aid to the heather of
Hindostan. 1t concerns the health OF
our own children--your children and
the children The Times has adopted
into its Sunshine circles. If you and
The Times are not enough interested
in our own children to see that the
city does its duty by them, we de-
serve to be shut out OF our own gov
eminent, in favor of the few who
nave done the work, and are doing
now as much as they can.

A Powerful Attraction.

That the circus IS q powerful attrac-
ton to most people, and especially to
the Mexicans. who love gaudy show and
splendid turnouts, is averred by Mr..
Grubbs, who says that the day is COM
ing when Mexicans OF all classes will
abhor the cruel lighting of bulls and IN
stead will spend their time in patron
izing some of the mammoth show aggre-
cations that will grow up in this coun-
try with the present small shows and
predecessors.
At the Iturbide Hotel Mr. Grubbs
spoke his convictions:
1t is my belief that buIlfighting ex-
lists here he said, solely because there
Is no other form of popular sport for
the poorer classes TO attend. By that
mean that there Is no other amuse-
ment combining the spice and excite
ment with the refinement of the large
circus as known in the United States
and Europe.
