join hands in patriotic endeavor the lawl@s could not
control anything, for they constitute but a small proportion of the en-
tire population. The effectiveness Of law depends entirely upon HOW
1T is EXECUTED.
When the prosecuting officer is attempting to enforce the law
against those of power he may find himself beieged on every side
close political friends may plead, inducements and hopes may be held
out for lessened activity; ANNIHILATION MAY BE THREAT
ENED if he proceeds. Pursuing steadily the course that he has
mapped out, with the good of the people alone in view, he may find
himself hedged in at times by wall of hostile influences, but now and
then, looking beyond to that great public that he is serving, a friendly
glance or a kindly clasp of an outstrctchcd hand will cheer and en-
courage him for further effort. He cannot expect the good opinion of
those AGAINST WHOM he enforces the law. THEIR ill will is
the best evidence of his sincerity. Every pressure may be brought to
bear to swerve him from his conception Of honest effort. If once he
falters- his usefulness a a public servant is gone. 1t may be far easier
for him to allow some ofense to go by unnoticcd, but he should rather
have the approval OF HIS CONSCIENCE than the plaudits of
those who would profit by his neglect of duty.
Corrupt men support a la for office and expect in return THE
PRIVILEGE OF LICENSED LAWBREAKING. Officials are
elected to enforce the law and have no more right to permit lawless-
ness to repay personal obligations than they would have to use the
public funds to pay a private debt. When all executive officials are
ruled by law no man could be above the law and the law would reign
over all.
SUCH A CONDITION WOULD BE THE HIGHEST FORM OF clvl.
L'zAT'oN. THE INDIFFERENCE OF ELECTORS is THE WEAKNESS
OF A REPUBLICAN FORM OF GOVERNMENT.
To arouse good mel. to action is a question of supreme Importance.
Those who would destroy the laws ae always active and work while
good citizens sleep, but once the latter are aroused they are invincible.
If the people want a reign of law they can get it, BUT THEY MUST
FIGHT FOR 1T. There is the same conflict between law and law
lessness as between the true and the false, the right and the wrong,
the evil and the good. The people will uphold the laws when they un-
derstand the necessity of it, for the vast majority Of the people will do
right WHEN THEY KNOW RIGHT. There never was a time
when unselhsh teachers OF the public were needed more than now.

Lawyers more than any other class should be the teachers of the
people. They can do much if they r true to their calling to remedy
the things that dishonor. AS they re ministers of the law it is their
duty to keep the fountains of law pure and undefled. The person
who in private life discharges the civic responsibilities resting upon
him may perform Is great a public service as he who faithfully does
his duty in public Office.

[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEI
Haven, Conn.,, June 2S--President HAD
ley of Yale announced at the alumni dinner thlS
afternoon that gift of S1,O00,O00 had been
made recently by John D. Rockefeller. Presi-
dent HadIey also said that 100000 in all
have been given to the university within a
comparatively recent time, the other million
being subscribed by graduates in sums varying
from $4,000 to S25O,OOO. The names of the
latter donors. however were not made public,
nor will they be until the total of what the uni
versity hopes to receive has been assured
These magnificent gifts stamp Anson Phelps
Stokes jr.. the greatest money raiser who has
ever abored in Yale's behalf. 1t was only three
months ago that he started out to secure per-
nanent endowment fund of S5,000.000. Presi
dent Hadley paid Mr.. Stokes warm compli-
ment at Tuesdays alumni meeting as an elo-
quent coin coaxer.' but no suspected that
the active young secretary had succeeded in
raising so vast sum as S2O0O0O0 since the
Easter vacation.
Rockefellers gift is by for the largest that
Yale has ever received. Mr. McClung, the
treasurer said this afternoon that it was more
than twice great any previous donation.
Yale's most generous benefactors in the past
were the Sheffield family, founders of the sci
enCe school, and their combined gifts did not
total far beyond SJ00,O00.
John D.~Rockefeller has never been directly
connected with Yale but two of his nephews.
the sons of William Rockefeller, have graduated
here William G. Rockefeller is member of
the class of 90. and Percy Rockefeller of the
class of 90 In his senior year Percy was man
ager of the football team, a member Of
Skull and Bones and an all around popular
man. He is an enthusiastic Yale man, and Is
the class agent for 90 in the raising of the
general alumni fund. He is believed to have
assisted Mr. Stokes in obtaining the million
dollar gift
President Hadley saved the announcement
until the close of the speaking From the glow
on his face he told of the gift, and the cheers
that rang through the hall as the big meeting
broke UP, it may safely be said that there will
be no tainted money" debate at Yale
President Hadley said that the "only condition
of any kind underlying Mr. ROckefeller's gift is
that the money is to be invested in income
producing securities and preserved inviolate as
a endowment for the institution. the annual in
come only to be used for current expenses"
President Hadley stated that these $2,000.00G
already subscribed were to be considered merely
the beginnings of endowment fund which
must at least be doubled in the next year if
Yale is to maintain her position in the educa-
tional world

All navies are temporary and cost
enormous sums for maintenance. Our
weapon of defense could at least be
selfsupporting and soon become re-
munerative.
IF the United States gave the $780,

DENVER MAN MURDERED.
Claude v. Logan Killed in Goldfieid,
Nevada, Mining District.

Denver March 24-Claude V. Logan,
a son of A. X. Logan of Denver, was
mysteriously murdered at Ida, Ne
vada, Tuesday night. 1t Is believed
that Mr.. Logan was murdered in cold
that he might not appear as witness
against certain parties accused of
shooting citizen of Ida. A posse is
now securing the country in the vicin-
ity of Goldfield for the murderers, and
it is probable they will be lynched II
caught.
Logan had been in Ida two months
and a half, and with man named Fox,
Howard Ish and Clyde Turnbull, n law
yer in c. j. Hughes office, started
mining company in the camp, locating
several valuable properties. His father,
a printer now with J. b. Stott and for
many years employed by the Times.
received a telegram from w. c. Ross.
a justice of the peace in Goldfield, Ne
vada, announcing the death of Claude
the evening before at Ida. No details
were given as to the murderers or the
cause of the shooting.
Young Logan was a witness of
shooting affray not long ago, and II
may be that this is the secret of the
murder.
Joseph Usher. partner of Logan's
in some Ida real estate, and an Indian
named Simpson, are believed to have
been connected with the crime. Usher
was the man shot at in the frst scrape.
while Simpson has had bad reputa-
ton in the camp since first coming
there.
Usher, Simpson and Logan were
playing cards in the Indians tent and
during the progress of the game Usher
succeeded in arousing Logan's anger.
Then, leaving the tent, it is believed he
paid the Indian to shoot Logan while
the latter was helpless. The program
was carried out and the two men made
their escape before Logan's body was
discovered in the morning. Such is
the theory of the shooting entertained
by Logan's father.
