rHE MILLIONS oF RocKEFELLER.

XTARIOUS comments are made about the pro-
posal of Mr.. Rockefeller to distribute mill
ions for the good of the people, and certain rich
men in big cities, who own newspapers whose
principal stock in trade consists in condemning
other rich men no matter what they may do, are
throwing stones at the oil magnate. Mr.. Rookie
feller is denounced because he acquired an un-
paralleled fortune through the monopoly of one
of the staples OF modern life. 1t is said that he
devoted the best years of his life to making all
the money he could by any means not jailable
and that he used an economic power largely ille-
gitimate Mr. Rockefeller, according to this view,
could have led the world "out of its wilderness
OF monopoly and commercial corruption, but his
business education has wholly untitled him for
the task"
All of this may be true, and il would have been
fine for Mr. Rockefeller to become the practical
example of different code OF commercial ethics,
but il his career has been as bad as il has been
painted is it wholly the fault OF Mr. Rockefeller;
Rather Is it not the fault OF the people who
through their law makers permit conditions TO
exist which enable shrewd and sharp men, un-
scrupr lous men, perhaps. to pile up fortunes
which stagger by their size the thoughtful writer's
of the world.
1t has been said such great fortunes are unnat-
ural. One of the leading European writers
economies an eminent Belgian professor, in dis
cussng the fortunes of the Vanderbts and the
Astors, declared such fortunes were unnatural,
teen or twenty feet tall walking down the street
If such fortunes are unnatural, they are pos
sbe because the law making power Of the nation
fails to curb them. There is no use in hitting
individuals, denouncing individual rich men here
and there, if you do not approve of them. They
take advantage of the system that prevails and
the people asa whole are responsible for the
system. not the individual rich man. Even rabid
sociastic writer's who expound their doctrines III
a scientific manner do not condemn the individual
capitalists who but the product OF the system,
but they denounce the system itself and offer as
a remedy sort of industrial despotism which
would make of the worker slave to the state.
And if the laws OF the land, made by the law
yers whom the people send to Congress, permit
Mr. Rockefeller without let or hindrance to amass
huge wealth, fortunate for the country it is that
he is disposed to distribute his riches where they
will do good He may be under a moral obliga-
,tion to make benefactons-many rich men are
coming to that opinion-but he is under no legal
obligation to return cent OF his almost count
less millions to those from whom he has taken
them

INcoME TAx AMENDMENT.

C COME time ago Governor Hughes shot a
- broadside into the proposal to amend the
constitution to provide for an income tax and his
arguments were hailed as unanswerable by those
opposed to the amendment Senator Root has
given his long promised views with reference 10
tie amendment and it Is generally accepted that
he has demolished the objections of the governor.
So far, then. as the legal phase of the matter is
concerned, that has been settled.
The income tax question was raised during the
debate on the tariff bill with the result that tax
on corporations was levied which we think IS
more unpopular than an income tax would be.
Mr.. Taft suggested an amendment to the consti-
tuition making the levying of an income tax legal.
it may be recalled that such amendment is nee
essary' because the Supreme Court in the Pollock
case in 1906 by vote of five to four denied the
authority OF the government to levy an income
tax, although before that time it had been gener-
ally accepted that the government had such power.
Mr. Taft has not changed his position respecting
the income tax. He has not advocated that such
tax shall be levied, bun he has argued that the
government should have right to levy the tax

OF the Newark school. Princeton University has
twenty-seven. With so many trustees perhaps
it difficult to ascertain the exact status of Della
ware College. The chief trouble with the agri-

lack of students, and so long as the young men

MUNICIPAL FRANCHISES.

u ECAUSE of the present difficulty between
~ the Rapid Transit Company of Phiadel-
pha and its employees, the time would seem mop
pQrtune for the consideration of new franchises,
but private capitalists arc seeking charter which
will enable them, to construct a subway under
Broad street with radiating Il" lines. Such
charter would be of immense value TO those for
iunate enough TO secure it, and inthe present
political condition OF Pennsylvania the seekers
after the franchise will probably be able to get
what they want. The state is in the control OF
political organization that believes i'll taking care
of private interests.
1t would seem that if any lesson were needed
to show the necessity of a cty's being careful IN
granting monopolistic franchises that increase in
value year by year. the Rapid Transit situation
should teach that lesson All franchises are
really the property of city They should be
one of its most valuable assets. No franchise
should be aven to any public utility unless such
lrassShist k surrounded by safeguards In other
words. the city should have a string tied TO all
Franchises.
New York among other cities has discovered
what it is TO permit private companies to own
the means of transportation within its limits and
eintends to construct subways OF her own over
Y <hich the city will retain scmi-ownership. Phil

NV netheYsuch a tax if levied would hit smaller
b. H. Is well as larger ones is question for
,oshse4nture to determine. Many of those who were
opposed TO the tax suggested in the Senate
based their opposition the fact that only the
huge incomes were to be made subject to the tax
Despite the support of Mr.. Taft, it looks as if
the amendment will be defeated There is an
aversion to amending the constitution in any
manner Then there IS a sentiment that in
come tax would be a step too radical, savorng OF
Socialism, and all that kind OF talk is heard which
is used as a method OF frightening people Then
again, il is easy in a Legislature TO secure the
defeat of any legislation, for it takes only onehaf
ot the members OF single House to control egis-
lation.
The discussion over the amendment is taking a
partisan form The Democratic national plat
form favored an income tax,but some Democratic
legislators, like those of Maryland, are doing as
Senator Bailey did in the tariff debate. He sup
ported the Democratic national platform when
the platform agreed with his views and he side
stepped the planks he did not approve. There
are many Senator Baileys among the Democrats.
