The Man with the Money.

The all too common habit 10 rail
against the man with money is
largely the result of thoughtlessness
II people took the time to stop and
think of this mans indispensability
in every ordinary sphere of life they
would be less likely to indulge this
tendency. Wealth in itself is not a
fault and should not suffer the bane
Of wrong. Prosperity, far from
being evil, per sc, is the purveyor Of
untold righteousness. Capital and
labor, as factors in the industrial
and social life, are interdependent,
and when they are not permitted to
cooperate it is because of an ex-
traneous fault somewhere.
Many crown has been laid upon
the brown brow of honest toll, and
deservedly 80. II is easy to praise
the thoroughgoing and thrifty la
borer Why, because it is popular?
Well, 1t is right, but at the same time
the need of praise should not be de-
MED the honest man of wealth. Men
may play to popular prejudice all
they please in railing against the
man with money, but they do it un-
thinkingly or insincerely. Commerce
depends on him, industry follows his
lead, untitled territory is broken up
and new lands colonized by him,
homes are established, towns and
cities and mills and factories and
railroads built and maintained, and
likewise schools and churches.
Bat does labor not play its part?
or course. it does, and it gets its
credit for so doing, but too often cap
ital goes without it's credit. Our
commercial club or chamber of COM
merce, in it's effort to build up the
city, lays out plans for inviting and
securing new Industries. 1t spends
much time devising ways and means
OF inducing capitalize man with
the money-to come and cast his lot
in the city. And every department of
the city's life is correlated with this
effort IL taxes get out of kilter, or
the civic management of the mu-
nlcipality goes too far wrong, or vice
become rampant, or unsanitary con-
ditions run riot, the first thing one
hears is, THAT will repel capital -
But the appeal does not end with
business, IL is sounded by education,
by charity, by even religious enter
prises. themselves. Charity and the
church may not unduly eXalt the rich
man, but they are pleased when lie
decides to favor their enterprise. 1t
Is giving no i'll or sinister aspect to
say that the college, the church and
beneiicent institutions always seek
the friendship and support of the
man with the money. us.
No one denies that this is right.
But what is all wrong is for people
to humor prejudice against wealth as
wealth. which is not prejudice at
all, but often sordid sort of envy,
to nurture which fosters the worst
kind of class feeling. that has no
place in the life of this country.
