RAps THE socIoLoeIsTs.

p ISHOP JAMES A. MacFAUL, the Roman
~ Catholic prelate of Trenton, ~ J.. has
started controversy that is likely to stir educa-
tiona circles throughout the country for some
time He declares that what may be regarded
as real immortality is being taught in many
Of the large universities of the country. AS tes-
timony he bakes several magazine articles writ
ten by a man who attended the universities and
setened to the lectures and associated with the
students It would have been better had the
bishop got more evidence, although the state
ments of the magazine writer have not been ser
iously controverted.
The matter to which Bishop MacFau has
called attention is entirely new. 1t has cropped
up within late years but It has escaped the at
tention of those not in close touch with the high
er Institutions of learning. The evil of which
the Bishop complains-the teaching of what he
and many others regard as kind of immortality
certainly did not exist a few years ago and
does not today in the smaller colleges. OF late
years there has sprung up a class of young
teachers and professors, many of whom have
been educated in the universities abroad, who
declare themselves sociologists.
They are trying TO create what they call sci-
ence which in their own minds is the most inn
portant Of all the branches of learning. Some Of
their text books would be considered even by
the Bishop as inoffensive. But the professors of
Sociology admit that they still in the "ex-
perimental stage" Their views as one of them
puts it, are not conclusive. Each professor tells
the result of his study OF social matters and then
waits 10 see how it will be received by the
public and by his fellow professors. Then. if
his ideas meet with the approval Of vast ma
jority of his fellow Socologists, they become a
dogma Of Sociology. The group of professors
whose opinions on social questions frequently
appear in the newspapers are engaging in $50
Geological laboratory work" The Science al
present most of the professors admit IS merely
cropping and the Bishops criticisms will give the
Soeiologists more food for thought

PROTECTION AND TRUSTS.

HE very few free trade organs that are left
- are gloating because they think they have
put the newspapers that have advocated the pro
teetive tariff "in hole" The free trade papers
profess to believe that all the tariff papers
should clamor for still higher duties Well.
free traders may get all tho pleasure they
wish out of the matter, although they msrepre-
sent the entire subject. The question of exces-
sively low duties on all imports is not debata-
bic simply because a very large revenue to meet
the expenses Of the government is needed.
When proposal is made to increase the rev
enues of the nation by some other means of tax
alton most of these free trade papers are the
first TO howl in protest They oppose the in
come tax and they oppose the suggested tax on
the net earnings of corporations In fact. they
oppose any tax which would be tax on wealth
The greater the wealth the fss the tax. IS ap-
parently their doctrine
Few papers favor piling up tariff duties indef-
intely, regardless OF conditions. The tariff is
designed to aid industries that need protection
and to bring revenue into the Golfers of the gov
ernment 1t was never formulated for the pur-
pose OF helping great trusts to fix monopoly
prices on products That is Just where the OBJ
lection to the Aldrch bill as it is being worked
out in the Senate finds strength
Senator DUPONT on number of schedules has
voted for what would benefit his own State as for
example his commendable efforts for free hides
and free ore and other things which he believes
would help Delaware industries. The opinions
of any newspapers with respect to the paper
question would be regarded as biased, but those
newspapers that have objected to the excessive
tariff on white paper do so because they know
from daily contact the exact situation and how
a high tariff on paper works. The paper max
ing industry is no longer in need of such pro-
lection as it gets And industries which are
in similar situation should be dealt with in a
similar manner.
This was the reason why Senator duPont's
attitude on the paper schedules caused surprise
Senator Richardson's attitude created no sur
prise He showed about as much interest in the
paper schedules as he has manifested in any
other schedules
