ve:y long ago that nation pos.
sessing a billion dollars was attri
bnted wealthy, and here we have
that amount accredited to n single
person, and to this he is adding a
million dollars week. 1t only
takes a little fiQnring to show any
one Just what Rockefcller's week Iy
wealth means, as viewed by the
man who must earn his living by
The sweat of his brow. The aver
age daily wage in this country
probably does not exceed two dol
lars. Therefore Rockefeller is
taking weekly as his share of the
created wealth of the people what
is equal to the earnings of nearly
one huDdred thousand men. 1t is
argued that this wealth of Rookie
feller is merely assnmptive, not
real, which is not true. Rookie
felIcr or any of the other multi
may gradually turn
all their wealth into money that
will buy just as much as the wage
earner's dollar, which makes their
wealth real enough. Let us say
that the average surplus earnings
are fifty cents per day for each
Garner; this would mean that
Rockefeller is absorbing the sur
plus earnings Of about 400, 900
toilers. A pretty big army to be
piling up wealth for one man. The
Journal does not advocate radical
socialism, communism or anarchy,
or deny to any man the right to
lay up competence, but it does
advocate regulations against the
inordinate accumulations Of wealth
by individuals. At the rate these
accunulations are piling up, how
long will it be before the whole
wealth of the United States is piled
up in the hands of the few Rookie
felIers?

An eastern railroad is said to
have promulgated rule that no
men over forty years of age should
remain in its employ. DR.. w. S.
Osler, late of the John Hopkins
University, asserts that men over
forty years of age have passed the
period of usefulness and ought to
be put out of the way with chloro-
form. The history of the world
shows however, that mars great
est achievements have generally
been accomplished after he has
passed the age of forty. A man
cannot be said to have fully devel.
oped his intellectual capacity under
that age. While many men dis
play much brilliancy of capacity
under that age, it is Just as true
that the Iustre of their ability
grows with their years.

The St. Louis Republic thinks
that in seeking readjustment of
the congressional districts of Mis-
souri, so as to give their party
eight out of the sixteen members
allowed the state the Republicans
have not sense enough to hide their
unscrupn!ousness. We may judge
from this assertion that in the ef-
fort by which tho Democrats here
tofore gained fifteen out of the
sixteen members in congress the
Democrats were able to hide their
own "unscrupulousness." The
Republic is certainly a wonder
when it comes to discriminating
between an equable division and
absolute hoggishness.

The Trust Problem In Germany.

Gently been made by the Prussian
Government in its effort to control
the price of coal for the benefit of
the people, in accordance with the
avowed policy of the Kaiser to
check the monopolies by acquiring
their properties by purchase of
stock in the open market secretly.
TO that end the Dresdener Bank
recently bought on behalf of the
Prussian Government SIT, ,5OO,OOO
worth of shares of the Hibernia
Coal Company at low price and
a bill was introduced in the Prns-
sian Diet to appropriate that sum
to pay for it. An animated dis
cnssion on the bill followed, dur
ing which Herr Moe.lcr, Minister
of Commerce and Industry, was
subjected to sharp attack by Won
Eyners, who is member of the
Hibernia Coal Company director
ate, for the secretive way in which
the purchase of the stock was con
Quoted. In reply, Herr Moeller
protested against the insinuation
that the Government was hostile to
great combination of capital in
business, when not conducted so as
to artificially initiate the prices of
the necessities of life. On the
contrary, he said, the changed
conditions of the age made great
organizations necessary, but the
Government claimed the right to
control them, if need be by the
purchase of their stock, thus ac-
quiring a property interest and
supervision of their affairs for pub
lie benefit. The Minister then re-
ferred to the trust question as it
exists in the United States and
warned Germany against copying
the American system. He said
that for years Europe had been
under the spell of those powerful
American organizations. After
time had elapsed and Europeans
had observed what had become of
those trusts, they were in : posi-
ton to regard this more calmly.
Germans were not dazed by the
greatness of the Steel Trust, being
warned by the shape matters took,
whereby In order to effect an or
ganization it was compelled to re-
sort to crazy overcapitalization.
The iron works had been capitaliz-
ed to double or three fold AID f.
nally to ten fold their actual value
in its frenzied efforts to destroy
competition IN its own country.
The German Government intended
not to permit any such business
conditions to obtain within the
realm of its influence. and to the
end that the people may be pro-
tected against eztortion, it's utmost
power would be exerted in a con-
servative and legitimate manner,
whenever necessary .-AgricuItural
