Multimillionairism.

Commenting upon the proposal In
his country to limit the growth of pri-
vate fortunes, the London Spectator
treats the alleged danger from abnor-
mally large fortunes as a real cloud In
our national sky.
American ideals of success In life,
American commercial law and Ameri-
can politics all conspire to foster "mul-
tlmillbnairism" as it is not fostered In
Europe, this paper says, and adds:
The American has few modes of ac-
Quiring distinction open to him and often
prefers to found a sort of commercial
dynasty-three instances at least must be
known to all our readers. The American,
too, who controls enormous wealth has
better chance Of acquiring direct power
than any Englishman, however rich,
could readily secure. Shareholders in this
country are still allowed a direct voice in
the management of their own affairs, but
In America eleven men are said to exer-
else "a controlling influence" over the
entire railway system of the republic.
Moreover, the gigantic latent resources OF
the republic so enlarge the vista II COM

more especially in England. this jour
nal contends, acts as a check upon
abnormally large fortunes. For ln-
stance:
The aggregation of colossal fortunes Is
checked on the European continent by the
independence of the different countries,
by severe laws of distribution al death
and by the desire of the rich to enter on
careers other than that of money making.
Idiosyncrasy counts even in commerce,
and the British multiml.iona!re almost
invariably desires either to found fam
ily," which is a process requiring great
outlays, or to achieve distinction by some
thing other than continuous devotion TO
business" which his son or other sue
cessor may probably denounce as some
what sordid.
Other influential English papers refer
to the American proposition to limit
wealth as being no novelty to their
readers. Not alone social customs and
influences, but the statutes of the
United Kingdom, it is asserted, make
overswollen fortunes impossible. Yet
we hear now and then of the enormous
wealth of some British duke. And. al

Keening Money at Home.

One result of the life insurance in
vestigations is the suggestion that
money paid to the companies as pre-
miums and held to make good shall
be invested in the territory where it is
picked up. The figures brought out
during the investigations show that
vast accumulations of money are made
in the financial centers and loaned out
at nominal rates, with little direct ad-
vantage to the policy holders who con-
tribute it.
While it is true that distant commu-
mites may be indirectly benefited by
the surplus insurance money concen-
trated at the financial center, it would
seem that the policy holders would
have a more certain and direct return
on their premiums if a good percent
age of the money paid in and destined
for investment could remain in the
smaller cities. There are plenty Of
ways for safe investment of trust
funds in all communities sufficiently
prosperous to patronize life insurance.
