Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1907-06-14

In these days of prosperity, when
capital is diverted to many ends, ana
when everybody is eager to have MS
share of the division of profits, it is
not surprising that many good men,
led away by the spirit of the age, IN
dulge themselves in the weakness or
picking up a little ''easy money" From
the standpoint of ordinary human i'm
pulse there is not much occasion for
wonder in the fact that a Brooklyn
clergyman listened to the pleading
voice of Corey and yielded to the Sc
auctions of a $1,000 fee. Similarly it
was not altogether amazing that a
bishop of Nebraska, dwelling in New
York, drew his salary regularly for
eight years while the coadjutor was
conscientiously performing all the
duties of the office. But, arguing from
the impression that a teacher Of morals
and public duty and private respon-
sibility is supposed to set an example
of extreme conscientfousnesS, such IL
Illustrations of plain everyday CONNER
cial thrift are reprehensible. 1t is,
therefore, with the more pleasure that
the public learns that, however griev-
ed it may have been by these two not
able instances Of temporary greed. the
reverend gentlemen have seen light
as bright as that which bewildered Saul
Of Tarsus and have acted accordingly.
The $1,000 fee has been sent back to
the seductive Corey, and the bishop
has returned $4,000 for services not
performed True, some cynics may
claim that the Brooklyn clergyman
was compelled to choose between his
fee and his church, and the bishop
yielded only to diocesan clamor. We
prefer to believe that both gentlemen
acted from an awakened conscientious
impulse and were governed by light
from above rather than the handWrit-
ing on the wall. Notwithstanding the
general spirit of greed and graft, which
We have all at one time or another
deplored, it is not the less true that
remorseful and corrective spirit of
restitution has been struggling for as
sertion and that an impulse to pay up
Or pay back has made itself felt in
the land. SO it is the more desirable
and the more significant that teachers
and preachers Of morality and correct
living should be among the first to set
the example of reform and show that
the laborer is worthy of his hire, pro-
vided the hire is dignifed and proper
and the labor has been performed. I'm
der other conditions they must be
ready to demonstrate that whatever
has been appropriated thoughtlessly
but wrongfully is not morally their
own and must be restored with unmis-
taxable evidences Of contrltion. That
the clergyman and the bishop have
adopted with enthusiasm this admir-
able sentiment cannot fail to have it's
effect On the layman. Zacchaeus made
the boast that if he took anything I'M
lawfully he restored fourfold. A COM
mendable exhibition of remorse, but
not necessary in our day. Plan resti-
tuition of the principal will meet pres
ent requirements for immediate re-
form,

How Is a Stranger to Know?

New Workers are cOld-blOoGcd peo-

puzzled which way to start. The other
day a Pittsburg business man went to
the Astor library to look at the files of
his home newspapers. After ascending
three winding flights of stairs, walking
through the office and thence through
a series of reading rooms he asked Of
the women at the information window ::

the quick reply. The visitor was de-

Damascus, probably the oldest living
city in the world, has become modern.
In February electric lights flashed
through the city and electric cars be-

The American consul-general at Beirut
says that until year ago electricity
was under ban in Turkey. The ban
has been raised chiefly by American
influence, and concessions have been
granted for lights and cars in other
Turkish cities.

public service corporations and city
governments combine to rob the people
by loading the service supported by
