The Millionaire,s Burden.

In a recent interview, John Ar
buckle, the millionaire coffee man,
laments the sorrowful spectacle of the
sons Of rich Americans who travel
over Europe and haunt home pleasure
resorts making fools Of themselves.
Mr.. Arbuckle is not the only Ameri-
can who is ashamed of these money
burners for every se~lf-respecting Amer
lean bushes at the recital Of their
inane doings. He is unable to COM
prehend how men whose energy and
business acumen have accumulated
vast fortunes can possibly be fathers
Of such worthless sons
Every rich young man who starts
out to demonstrate his eligibility to
the %foolkiller class finds plenty Of
help and so long as the money lasts 1t
is a continuous performance on a
twenty-four hour schedule. His as
~sistants will even show him how to
improve on his home training and by
the time he reaches middle g he al
qualify for stellar roles, The million
aires son may have no greater natural
ability in this line than the poor mans
boy, but he has superior opportunities
for improvement and better press
agents to spread his fame.
Mr.. Arbuckle is unfair in blaming
1t all on the millionaire's son.. The
angel child who is too good to work
must do something and he follows
human nature by taking the path Of
least resistance, with the result that
he often finds himself dumped in the
human rubbish heap when he should
be in the prime of his usefulness,

INDUSTRIAL GREED.
One of the Prime Factors in the
Strike Near P~ittsburE.

Strike Near PittsburE.
st. louis Republic.
The pressed steel freight car carries 10
tons and is higher in proportion to it's
load than n car heretofore designed.
II has a steel body, steel wheels and steel
trucks. II is part of the. material triumph
OF American civilization. Thousands Of ex-
cellent examples OF 1t are turned out
yearly from the great plant at MoKees
Rocks, near P%ittsburg. Much of the work
liz done by foreigners from southern
Europe. They know nothing of American
institutions; hey speak little English;
they are herded in shaoks at which a we'll
cared-for horse would look askance; they
work at work which requires the mini
mum of intelligence. The brains of the
plant is concentrated in a small force Of
highly trained technica men and over
seers. The rest is a matter only OF passive
obedience and brute strength. But the sys-
tenn makes cheap steel.
The wage question that precipitated the
strike is the least important phase Of this
awful occurrence We may safely ignore
II for the consideration of graver things.
The truth is that we, as Americans, have
largely ignored the human side OF indus
trial progress. We rave gloated over the
- - - 0NSNA pAeNNAO olA nave AAu
our magazines filled with Illustrations Of
Bessemer converters, continuous mills and
! open-hearth furnaces One machine we
have forgotten-the man, ignorant and I'M
skilled and Insignificant, who fills In GER
tain gaps in the cycle OF pro-
oesses. And while we reveled in statistics
and in engineering detail, there have been
built up communities which are not Amer
ican-Rre not even oivilIzed-in the heart
Of the manufacturing regions Of the United
States.
Wages are, as we have said, the least
part Of It; for they are so much better than
the wages Of Poland and Russia and Italy
and Servia that the immigrants have kept
coming. The grave things are the brutality,
the lack OF contact between the man be-
fore the furnace and the spirit and life OF
the nation whose ward he is. Now comes
the explosion, but Il is not an accident. It
has all been prepared. A few men did
the work-actively. They brought these
men over, rented the ground on which
their shacks are built, bargained with the
padrones, "organized"Athese were not the
same ones-the foreigners, gave them union
cards, taught them their rights" But

was done, the union dues came In regu-
larry and wages we're maintained and steel

Postal Money Order Business.

The record Of the fiscal year Just
closed demonstrates the growing popu-
larity of the money order service Of
the Postal department. particularly
for transmitting small sums. In spite
Of the active competition Of express
companies inc banks over 100000
more orders we're issued than in the
preceding year., though the total In
money was less, which would indicate
the express companies and banks we're
cutting in on the larger business.
What is even more significant than
the amount Of business transacted Is
the record OF the International money
order system which sent S66, 100000
more abroad than was received from
foreign lands. This vast sum repre-
sents almost exclusively money saved
by foreign born citizens sent to the
old country for various purposes, not
the least of which wal to bring rela-
tives and friends to the United States.
The people who left home and came to
the United States did so to better their
condition and sending back money is
proof that they have accomplished
their object as we'll as that they have
been industrious and frugal.
Every money order sent abroad is
an advertisement In the old country
town where It is cashed Of the and of
opportunity beyond the sea which at
tracts immigrants Of the Industrious
and frugal class. Sixty-six millions is
a large sum to spend in a rear for ad-

Fashionable Women smueVlers.

Another fashionable woman snug
gler, this time a society leader Of Bos-
ton, has come to grief through an eff
fort to avoid paying duty on a valu-
ablt necklace. Not only has the finan-
cial penalty been exacted, but the cul-
prit must answer a criminal indict-
ment. 1t has been common knowledge
for years that wealthy people who
travel abroad have been guilty Of
smuggling on a large scale and par
ticularly has this been true Of women
shielding themselves behind social pos
ition and Difference paid to their sex.
When Collector Loeb at New York de-
termined to break up the practice, the
catch was heavy with numerous heart
burnings In the wake.
Just why women Of high social
position. whom fear II nothing else
would deter from committing my
other crime, so persistently violate the
revenue laws is difficult to understand.
Mr.. Loeb Is on the right tack, how
ever, when he insists on one and the
same law for the rich and powerful
and for the poor and the ~friendless.
Though they may not look at IT IN that
light, these fashionable smugglers are
no different in law from the profess
sional smuggler and In one aspect
are worse-there is not the same in
centive hat moves the professional,
but rather the false notion Of being
above the law.
The moral effect Of the conviction
Of one rich and powerful smuggler is
greater than that of a dozen monde
scripts and %unknowns, for the one goes
unnoticed while the other is heralded
all over the land.

PARTY Servioe.

SO far az known. Charles r. Crane has
not contributed 60 campaign funds, nor
even polled his precinct. Yet he goes as
minister to China.-Llnooln journal.
While we question the correctness
Of this statement, ven were 1t true,
It would not be anything to a mans
credit. why should not every man
interested in good government, and
believing that he will get better gov
eminent from n political party than
from another, contribute to the sue
cess of that party in the most practi-
cable way? Everyone knows that bus
mess prosperity has regularly accom-
panied republican ascendency In ma
tional affairs, and why should not the
successful business man be glad to
contribute to the legitimate expenses
Of a campaign which he is sure will
bring him more prosperity?
What is true with reference to ma
tional politics is true in only smaller
degree with reference to state and
local politics. The good citizen should
align himself with the political party
whose policies most nearly coincide
with his views, and should accord that
party the support Of his personal in
fuence and financial assistance.
There is altogether too great a dispo-
sition manifested by such newspapers
as the Journal to praise %abstention
from party politics and to applaud pre-
tended nonpartisanship, which is moth
ing but a Sinking of the citizens
duty. If a man is recognized with po-
litical honors who has not contributed
to campaign funds nor ever polled his
precinct" it is not because of this fact,
but because this deficiency is Offset by
other qualifications or claims.

BRYAN'S LITTLE JOKE,
Unseemly Frivoltry from a Solemn
Mentor.
nAI..-. m-IA---

CnlCdHO Tribune.
Usually Mr.. William ]. Bryan Is as
solemn as the day Of judgment. He feels
so deeply the responsibility which rests
on him as national monitor or censor that
he will not stoop to testing and mirth. But
for once he has frivoled. He has done II
in his advice to President Taft to ask
congress to submit an amendment for the
direct election of senators along with the
income tax one,
Behind the grave appeal one can see the
grin Of the joker. For Mr.. Bryan knows
that the senate would pay no more atten-
ton TO a request from the president to
submit an amendment for the popular cleo
ton OF Its members than Mr.. Bryan would
to a fervent appeal from democratic lead
ers that he swear eternal silence. II the
president were not aware of the senatorial
state of mind and were to send a message
TO ongress on the subject Mr.. Bryan
would be much amused.
Some may fancy that Mr.. Bryan had no
other object In his letter to the president
than to keep himself before the public.
Whose bloweth not his own horn, by
no mar shall his own horn be blown" is a
great saying which Just now fits Mr..
Bryan'B case. But 1t is unnecessary TO
assume that he is playing politics or SEEK
ing to show how strenuous a champion
of the popular election of senator's he is.
His only object is to have a little mild
fun with President Taft Is possible.

Passing of Spanish Pretender.

Don Carlos, who has just died in
Italy and who as claimant to the
throne, kept Spain in a turmoil for
several years in the 70s, had more
recently lived quietly and kept up only
a nominal claim as the rightful ruler
of his country. His claim was based
on the Salic law Of succession which
had it's origin in the old days when
monarchs were the actual leaders of a
nations army and women we're barred
His pr~etenslons found little encourage
ment in these modern days of consti-
tutional government and the following
which he gained was due rather to
the unrest and dissatisfaction prevail
ing in his native country.
Don Carlos son and successor to the
mythical throne is not likely to have
any other function in Spain or else
where han that of the numerous other
royal exiles, furnishing marriage al
liances for the children of royalty
whom custom forbids TO wed outside
of royal blood. AS political factors
the French and Spanish bourbons have
been a negligible quantity and all the
drift Of modern thought is away from
the ideals which they represent, leav-
ing them merely to pose as fine ex-
amplars Of fallen greatness around the
various European courts.
