Human Selfiskaess Ever Present.
The government, whether it leans to-
ward individualism or toward social
ism, must be administered by human
beings, and its administration will re-
fleet the weaknesses and imperfections
Of those who control it. Bancroft de-
clares that the expression of the uni
versal conscience in history is the
nearest approach to the voice of God,
and he is right in paying this tribute
to the wisdom OF the masses; and yet
we cannot overlook the fact that this
universal conscience must find gov
ernmental expression through frail hui
man beings who yield to the tempta-
ton to serve their own interests at the
expense of their fellows. Will social
ism purge the Individual of seltishness
or bring nearer approach to justice?
Justice requires that each individual
shall receive from society reward
proportionate to his contribution to So
ciety. Can the state, acting through
officials, make this apportionment bet
ter than it can be made by competi-
ton? At present official favors are
not distributed strictly according to
merit either in republics or in mon
arches. Is it certain that socialism
would insure fairer division Of re-
wards? If the government operatGs

NIT to the terms prescribed. Tndividu-
alists, for instance, can consistently
advocate usury laws which fix the rate
Of interest to be charged, these laws
being justified on the ground that the
borrower and the lender do not stand
upon an equal footing. Where the
money lender is left free to take ad-
vantage Of the necessities of the bor-
rover, the SO called freedom of con-
tract is really freedom to extort. Upon
the same ground society can justify
legislation against child labor and leg
islation limiting the hours of adult Ia
Dor. One can believe in competition
and still favor such limitations and re-
strictions as will make the competition
real and effective. To advocate indi-
vidualism it is no more necessary to
excuse the abuses to which competi-
ton may lead than it is to defend the

Clubs and Tipping,

In clubs the best service is obtained
where tipping is forbidden. In poorly
conducted clubs tipping Is allowed, but
In the best conducted ones member
found guilty of tipping servant would
be liable to expulsion. The majority
Of clubs in America are luxuries.
Wines, food and tobacco cost as much
n them as Lip fashionable restaurants
In these clubs, which have little reason
for existence, tipping is permissible.
But In England the club is not lug
ury, but an economy. The English
founded the club, and an Englishman
Is clubman because he can get at his
club a good dinner, good bottle of
wine and good cigar at less than half
the price he would pay at the Carlton
or the Trocadero. In no English club
is tipping ever countenanced. Men
have been expelled from English clubs
for habitual tipping. In many Ameri.
can clubs it has been found that a no
tipping rule, on the whole, bettered' the
seryica.

all the factories, all the farms and all
the stores, there must be superintend-
ents as well as workmen; there must
be different kinds Of employment,
some more pleasant, some less pleas
ant. Is 1t likely that any set of
men can distribute the work or fix
the compensation to the satisfaction
of all or even to the satisfaction Of
a majority Of the people? When the
government employs comparatively
few Of the people it must make the
terms and conditions inviting enough
to draw the persons needed from pri-
yate employment, and If those employ
ed in the public service become dissat-
lsf1ed they can return to outside occu-
pations. But what will be the result II
there is no private employment? What
outlet will there be for discomfort il
the government owns and operates all
the means of production and distribu-
ton?
Individualism Has Been Tested.
Under individualism mans reward
is determined in the open market, and
where competition is free he can hope
to sell his services for what they are
worth. Will his chance for reward be
as good when he must do the work
prescribed for him on the terms fixed
by those who are In control of the gov
eminent?
As there Is no example Of such So
cialistic state as ls now advocated, all
reasoning upon the subject must be-
confined to the theory, and theory
needs to be corrected by experience.
AS In mathematics no one can calcu-
late the direction of the resultant with
out knowledge Of all the forces that
act upon the moving body, SO in esti-
mating the effect Of proposed sys-
tenn one must take into consideration
all the influences that operate upon
the human mind and heart, and who
is wise enough to predict with certain
ty the result Of any system before 1T
has been thoroughly tried? Indipidu-
alism has been tested by centuries OF
experience. Under 1t there have been
progress and development. That 1t
has not been free from evil is not
sufficient condemnation. The same
rain that furnishes the necessary mois-
ture for the growing crop sometimes
foods the land and destroys the har-
vest; the same sun that coaxes the
tiny shoot from Mother Earth some
times scorches the blade and blasts
the maturing stalk. The good things
given us by our heavenly Father often.
II not always, have an admixture Of
evil, to the lessening Of which the in
telligence of man must be constantly
directed. Just now there are signs OF
| an ethical awakening which is likely
to result in reforming some of the evils
] which have sprung from individualisip,
| but which can be corrected without
any impairment of the principle.
Altruism Necessary.
| The individualist, while contending
that the largest and broadcast develop
! ment of the individual, and hence Of
| the entire population, is best secured
by full and free competition, made fair
by law, believes in a spiritual force
which acts beyond the sphere of the
state, After the government has Sc

use his greater strength, his larger
ability and his richer reward in the
spirit of brotherhood. Under individ-
ualism we have seen constant in.
crease in altIuism. The fact that the
individual can select the objects of his
benevolence and devote his means to
the causes that appeal to him has CIV
en- an added stimulus to his endeavors.
Would this stimulus be as great under
socialism?
Probably the nearest approach that
we have to the socialistic state today
Is to be found in the civil service. If
the civil service develops more useful
ness and more altruistic devotion to
the general welfare than private en-
ployment does, the fact is yet to be
discovered. This is not offered as a
criticism Of civil service in so far as
civil service may require examinations
to ascertain fitness for Office, but it is
simply reference to n well known
fact-viz, that a life position in the
government service which separates
one from the lot of the average produ-
Ger of wealth, has given no extraord-
nary stimulus to higher development.
1t is not necessary to excuse or to
defend competition carried to point
