POVERTY NO BLESSING.

Life is q luxury and It deSefFeS all inc luxurics which man can con oner from nature with his toil or hls thought" decared M. NJ. Mangasarl@h in his closing lecture Of the season before the Indeendent Religious ooci- civ of Chicago last Sunday, ana the Graphic heartily agrees With 'he sentiment. It may be all right |" millionaire Carnegies to prate about inc blessings of poverty while
 anr;ch themselves at the expense of the public generally and continue to enjoy every luxury that it is possible for money to buy, but those who nave ever passed through the real thing know that poverty is not only a nan dicap but also a curse and o!leh breeder of crime. In the GTaphlc opinion. there is nothing too good OH this earth for man, and any cand''lon that increases mans opportunities l' ,,e on n;ovment of such comforts and ,uxuries in q reasonable degree ina, can he extracted from nature and na- t,re's laws as desideIatum to oe most earnestly sought. We do not mean the extravagant and Wodlsai rsas of luxuries. but We dc contend that poverty per se is cnfse To hu- uanitv and under natures hounteons- ness there should be To sG2h tnln@ as poverty and suffering. and mere would be nc such unhappy eondltloh' except such as arise from jnproVl- dence and ill-health were it not TOT the srasping greed of the lnorcln"'e- 1v rich. In other words all the ete' ments of comfort and the iuxurles ol wholesome living are here, but me great trouble is in the uneqa&4 elstff bntion of wealth. Why should ve nave Carnegies, Rockefellers and Mofsahs but for a system Of protective tarlh wbicb leyies q tribute upon tne many for the benefit Of few WhS shoais an American pay more Tor c9f f'ai'' manufactures than is paid :o: the same product abroad? The 'ore'eh nrice regulates the price oi the iabof engaged in the manufacture CT pro ducts for export. then who IS 'he beneficiary of the American system of protection but the manu!ac1ufet Why a beef trust, a steel trust anu scores of others too numerous to men ticn?
 The Graphic does not mean tc pc understood as ID any manner ap'ae- onizing legitimate wealth We De Ieye in every man enjoying the frul's of his own thought, enterprise or ln dustry. Legitimate wealth is whole some to the community as well as the individual Without wealth there can be no progress. But the lli'c'' communications of wealth by monopoly or legalized favortiism is to De con demned. It is the policy of making ,onlti-millionaires and billionaires tha' should be stopped.
 On the other hand the Graphic has no patience with the idler and loarel ia life, whatever be his station. Lazl ness, improvidence and intempe7anct are responsible for two-thirds of the poyerty of this world. We have 1awless poor and lawless rich, an' these are in turn to be checked.

ARGENTINA NOT PLEASED
 WITH PROGRAM.
Several, latin.Ame rican Republics May Withdraw from Pan.Areriean
 Congress.

Washington. June 9.-AreenIina is aot pleased with the program agreed t.,on for the third Pan-American con- gress 10 be held in Rio Janeiro in July, and ii will require al the skill of which Secretary Root is possessed te prevent the withdrawal of several of the Latin-American republics from the congress.
 The Draeo doctrine is the cause of Areentina's grievance. It was the desire of Mir. Portela. the Argentina minister. that the Drago doctrine should be one of the subjects cons1d- cred at the Rio Janeiro congress. This doctrine. which was promulgated hy the celebrated Argentina lurlst, L.. r. Draso, at the time of the Nenezue- Ian blockade hy Germany, Great Brit ain and Italy holds that force can not he used by one power to collect money owed to it's citizens by another power,
 After much discussion, the commit tee on proeran for the congress pre- raYed the following section relating to the general subject covered by the Draoo doctrine:
 praao Doctrine.
 "A resolution recommending that ,h, second peace conference at The Hague he requested to consider the K tent to which the use of force for the collection Q: public debts is admis sible'
 This statement of the subject was ] very distasteful 10 Argentina and sev eral other powers. It practically ad mitied that force is iustifable in some cases. and provoked great deal o1 comment. The result was the restate ment of the suhjec; in the following | compromise:
 "A resolution recon mendins that 1 the second peace conference at The Hague he requested to consider whe1h CT, and if at all to what extent. the use of force fer the collection of public debts $ admissible
 This statement does not grant thai the use of force is ever justified, but is not q clear statement of the sub ject covered by the D-aso doctrine in the opinion of nlmber Of the countries which are to participate 1T the congress- Mir Drago was named by Argentina as one of its delegates to the Rio Janerio congress, (and is | reported to have announced that he does not care to attend and participate in the discussion of the program as agreed upon.
