Tainted Money.

Rockefeller's gift of 100000 to
the American Board Of Foreign
Missions has occasioned no end of
discussion. Many eminent minis
tiers of the gospel, editors and pub
licists contend that Standard Oil
money is tainted, and that it should
be listed and its possession avoided
the same as stolen goods. On the
other hand, many equally prominent
public thinkers view the question
from an entirely different stand
point. They contend that there is
no such thing as tainted money;
that the status of money is at all
times fixed and determined by it's
use, and changes as often as the use
changes.
A Des Moines minister is quoted
as saying, that where he is collect
ing money for Christian purposes
he would take the last dollar the
Devil had if he could get it. This
may be rather a broad report Of
what he actually said, but in sub
stance the sentiment has many sup
porters.
Edward Young, pastor of the
Second Presbyterian Church of
Pittsburg, in recent sermon said:
81 suppose no clear-headed, un-
biased reader Of a half-dozen his
tories. favorable and unfavorable,
describing the rise Of tho Standard
Oil Company, would doubt that the
process of crushing rival concerns,
by which it came to af1luence was
unspeakably villiainous. For my
self 1 would rather go before God
the Father tonight in the person Of
the manslayer who has deliberately
killed one man than in the person
of the head of that company, which,
if l understand the facts, has been
instrumental in taking almost the
earthly all of multitudes of men.
"Albeit, God is his Judge, not I.
or the preacher, or the public, and
inasmuch as these funds cannot
now be restored to their rlghtful
holders were l member Of the
American Board Of Foreign Missions
600.
Subject to one qualification, we
think Mr.. Young's position quite
justifiable. If donations from the
possessors Of i'll gotten gain are SO
used that they can in no manner
tend to silence the voice Of the moral
forces Of the country, then there can
be no valid reason for their refusal
But, if the acceptance and use Of
such donations, tend toward con
donation Of unchristian practices,
and, if the donations are made fol
that purpose, the whole transaction
is tainted and vicious, and no bet
ter than plan to wipe out thu
teachings Of the Ten Command
ments.
