Corporation Hearst.

Among the followers of WILLIAM
RANDOLPH HEARST are many persons
who have believed firmly in the SINGER
ity and singlemindedness of their can
didate. The vote polled by him in 1905
was not entirely a register of protest,
for numerous citizens were convinced
that Mr.. HEARST brought a new message
and gospel of administration to a COM
munity sadly in need Of political re-
generation.
What are the feelings Of these honest
members of the Independence League
and other distinctly Hearst organiza-
tions as they contemplate the true man
as he is revealed by Mr.. HUGHES? They
find that his well turned phrases de-
n~ouncing corporations are not the gos-
pei of his own counting room; they learn
that his preaching is far from his prac-
tice and that none is more skilful than
he to take advantage of whatever crooked
ways ingenious lawyers al construct
TO lead him away from responsibility
for his acts. They find him in the prose-
cutiOn Of his trade employing the very
instruments and methods that he has
so bitterly denounced when others re-
sorted to them. When the test for sim
certify is applied it is found that quality
is entirely lacking in him.
Had Mr.. HEARST not been so vigor-
Gus in his language. so Immaculate in
his professions and protestations, Mr..
HUGHES would not be able to Use the am
munition he has with such destructive
effect. Mr.. HEARST created the oppor-
tunity. Mr.. HUGHES was not slow 10
make use Of it. The ~undeniable. cold,
~passionless exposure Of Mr.. HEARST
that has been made has disarranged his
campaign. changed his accusations TO
explanations and laid on him the inn
possible task Of rebuilding the reputation
for sincerity which Mr.. HUGHES has
demolished completely.

The Process Of Education.

Because there is no other country in
which the term education ismore widely
m~isinterpreted than it is in our own, it is
highly interesting to find ARTHUR BEN
SON in the Academy lamenting its misin-
depreciation by Englishmen. Instead
Of thinking that it is a process, he says,
which Ought to end in making men and
women more simple, more content,
happy, we have a vague idea that it will
enable us to retain our commercial supe-
riority and b o keep ahead Of America
and Germany. The success, in my be-
lief, of German education il attested not
By their commercial prosperity. but by
the fact that Germans are genuinely
devoted to intellectual and artistic
pleasures"
Il is a misfortune that in this country
40 many people ~cOnstrIe education in n
manner similar to that ascribed to the
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1906-10-12

British by Mr.. BENSON. Too many re-
gard IL a. a process Of preparing a man
70 earn his living. Those who 90 further
demand OF it that II shall enable a man
70 get rich, Now. nothing has been
more thoroughly demonstrated in this
country than the fact that a man does
not have TO be educated in order to
achieve success as a money getter.
The truth Ia that intellectual educa-
ton, that education which rounds out
the rational and aesthetic nature Of a man,
making him love high thought and deep
beauty, is likely in many cases TO unfit
him for the business Of acquiring large
wealth. It may fairly be questioned,
however, whether Mr.. BENsoN's ideal OF
happiness and content ia to be reached
by this sort Of education. II is true that
the middle class" German is a
cultivated person than the middle class
American, but possibly he would give
less time to culture IL he believed that
any expenditure of energy or thought
would enable him TO equal the social
and ~pecuniary condition OF the American.
He does not try to get rich because he
does not believe that success is possible,
or at any rate within the range Of imme-
diate probability.
On the other hand, that education
which looks solely to preparation for
earning money is certainly not education
at all in the true sense Of the term. A
man may be a graduate of the best tech
nical school in the country and yet not
be educated. This is fully understood by
educators in this country. 1t is also
understood by many hard headed fathers.
The demand OF men who have got rich
without education, and who send their
sons to college, seems to be for an edu-
cation which shall combine the practical
with the ideal. The nan who wakes up
in middle life to find that he cannot enjoy
anything but his bath and his dinner
land frequently, because Of indigestion,
not even the latter, who learns that the
world is full OF truth and beauty that he
canno penetrate, does not really wish
that his son shall tread the same path
that he has trodden.
He desires to see his son able to grapple
with the practical problems of life, and
at the same time to have ideals. Those
who sneer at college education ought to
note the fact that nearly all the men who
got rich without it send their sons to
college, and they send them there to get
what they have found missing in their
own lives. American educators are try
ing to solve the problem set before them.
They are seeking for a system of educa-
ton which shall sharpen the wits of the
youth while it does not blunt his finer
sensibilities: which shall make him a
business man as well as a scholar, a good
citizen as we'll as a cultivated gentleman.
About this time of year when some two
per cent of the students in every college is
busy chasing a football, the rest are being
put through some thorough and syste-
matte training looking to these ends.

rHR WI sOCTALTsMS.

To rRE EDITOR or THE suN-SiT: In
this discussion Of socialism may not your
correspondents he somewhat at cross pur-
poses for want of q clear defnition7
There arc more kinds Of socialism than
one. There Ia q socialism A. old, perhaps.
as the philosophy OF Greece. certainly as
Sir Thomas More. which looks for q re-
constitution Of society. q levelling OF the
mournful inequalities Of the human lot and
the creation Of an ideal commonwealth on
principles truly fraternal. This Is a vision
Of the future.
There In another socialism which Is
neither visionary nor Of the future. but a
present aim. thoroughly practical. and
though perhaps natural. hardly to be cpSled
fratcrnal. 1t is the growing dispositio,I Of
the class which has the most votes but Is
the east wealthy to use the political power.
Of ito possession Of which IL has become
conscious. for the purpose Of transferring
wealth from the other classes to itself. This
is the natural offspring Of ar age Of uni
versal ferments. growing dislike Of manual
labor and thirst Of enjoyment, with uni
versal suffrage.
OF collision with socialism Of the hrst
kind there is little danger. except when it
goes mad and takes to bomb throwing.
Collision with socialism Of h second class
there cannot fail to be II property obi ects
TO forcible transfer.
This term socialism. however, Ia applied
to movements in which there 10 nothing
socialistio or in any way novel, such az
public ownership OF railroads and tele-
graphs, which would be sooialistic only il il
were to be brought about by oonfiscation.

France May Not Close the Churches

@N"F WV
According to a telegram from Paris,
the Sarrien Cabinet at its meeting on
October 0 resolved not TO put itself in
the odious position of closing all the
cathedrals and churches in France on
December II, when the Separation law
becomes operative. The resolution is
said to have been reached in compliance
with the urgent demand Of NJ. CLEMEN-
CEAU, Minister of the Interior, who is
credited with the assertion that the law
properly construed, does not make the
closing of the churches mandatory before
December IL, 1907.
1t is settled, then, that the crisis by
which France might have been con-
vulsed had French Catholics been shut
out of the consecrated buildings in which
they have been accustomed TO worship
will be postponed for more than a year,
provided the Ministry's decision shall be
upheld by the Chamber of Deputies.
There is no doubt that the decision will
encounter violent opposition on the part
of the Radical-SOcialists who constitute
a group numerically strong, and who
hitherto have been looked upon rs the
mainstay of the present Cabinet. Al
ready the executive committee of the
Radicals ocialistic party have announced
that any negotiations, direct or indirect,
with the Pope, or any concession to him,
on the part of the Government will be
denounced by them as treason. BY way
of emphasizing their uncOmpromising
attitude they have Endorsed "A resolution
TO be offered by NJ. BRETON on the re-
opening of Parliament, a resolution pro-
posing the immediate cOntiscation of all
church property; and demanding, further,
that the Government suspend entirely
the payment Of the pensions Of priests,
and insist that all ecclesiastics present
themselves at the barracks and be re-
quired to fulfil, like laymen, their mill
tary obligations. According to this pro-
gramme, all church property should be
turned over on December II to the com
munal establishments. and the church
buildings should be apportioned among
the departments and communes.
The lines being thus sharply drawn
between the Radical Socialists and ".
CLEMENCEAU, who hitherto has been
able TO rely on their support, We may
expect to witness in the Chamber OF
Deputies a debate and a division that
will havo memorable consequences. II
Is probable enough that NJ. CLEMENCEAU.
with the assistance Of the Right and OF
the Moderate Republicans, and backed
also by that section of the bloc" which
is reluctant TO proceed to cxtremities
against the Catholics, will be aole to vote
down the Breton resolution; but il may
prove that for his personal fortunes d
victory achieved by such a coalition
would mean irreparable defeat. For NJ,
CLEMENcEAU is nothing if not a Radical
with strong Socialist leanings: neither
Conservatives nor Moderates would trust
him, or cooperate with him, except for
temporary destructive purposes. Then.
egain, il is n fundamental principle OF
the political combination by which
France for some years has been ruled
