WHAT TO INVEST IN.

From the ProJidence Journal.
A number of years ago a member OF the
Vanderbilt family died and his estate
contained less than $4,000 in New York
Central securities. He was a leading
member OF the family and yet had little
interest in the leading Vanderbilt road.
The inventory OF William Bayard Cut
ting's property sheds as little light on
what the man or woman with money TO
invest might advisedly do with such capi-
tai Mr.. Cutting was a financier, friend
Of the late Mr.. Morgan, and reputed 70
be a thoroughly conservative inventor.
Yet little Of his ter millions of property
lies in the solid securities Of the Eastern
part OF the country.
For instance, he owned no New Haven.
New York Central or Pennsylvania stocks
or bonds, no stocks of the rich coal
roads and none OF the Boston and Provi-
dence and like companie- wn!cn are now
generally out Of sight, but are supposed
to be selected for conservative holdings.
The list of his bonds includes principally
those OF roads West OF the Mississippi
River and wholly West OF the Alleghanies.
But the valuable properties in the Mid
die West also are lacking. He had in
vested heavily in Union Pacific stock,
but held nothing issued by such sub
stantial concerns as the Great Northern
or the leased Chicago. Burlington and
Quincy. Yet his investments were vari-
Gus and valuable enough to show that
he was one OF the Americans who have
faith in the great West and who may
have been responsible for the booming
OF its railroads during the years which
have passed since the Spanish war.
Mr.. Cutting was interested In the Amer. .
lean Beet Sugar Company This illustrates
the personal side Of his investing. al
ready manifest in his railroad security
holding. Evidently the personal equation
is usually active in the case OF an inves-
tor This fact makes. his investments
Of little instructive value to others. a
trustee would hate TO put
trust property where much OF Mr.. Cut
ting's was found, and an individual in
vestor with a hundred thousand to put
away would hesitate to divide II up
among any half-dozen of his investments.
Yet Mr.. Cutting was a financier, and as
such was not careless investor.

SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER g. 1913
The Senate and the Merit Clause.

The Senate amendment to the tariff
bill suspending for two years the
merit clause in respect to inspectors,
deputy collectors, and agents in the
customs service. may be a shrewd
move on the part of the Democrats
in behalf OF partisan spoils system,
but is it good policy to gain the con-
hdencs of the people after the Balti-
more civil service pledges? That plank
reads:
The law pertaining TO the civil
service should be honestly and rigIdly
enforced. to the end that merit and
ability should be the standard of ap-
pointment and promotion. rather than
service rendered to a political party.
The above amendment is intended
TO open to Democrats the way pri-
marily to the great many offices opened
up by the income tax law. The as
sessment and collection of this tax will
require men of ability, tact, and busi-
ness qualifications. 1t is not fair to
in,rust duty of such responsibility
to men whose chief recommendation
for an appointment would be party
work done by them. If ever there
was an apparent need for suitable
examinations, for men Of ability taken
from the classified lists. this is it. But
it looks as though the Democrats mean
to reserve these Juicy plums for their
own. and in order to be able TO accom-
plsh this they simply take these Of
fees out Of the merit system in the
face OF their Baltimore protestations
and promises.
Wonder what the President, that
earnest advocate OF civil service re-
form. thinks of the amendment? Are
the people to hear from him?

"Higher Nationality" "

Lord Haldane's address before the
American Bar Association at Montreal
dealt with the fundamental truth OF
human relationship. 1t was quite
apropos of the approaching celebration
of the centenary of peace between this
country and Great Britain, and crystal
Lies the fact that this American asso-
citation not only convened on British
soil, but had a British Lord Chancellor
as its guest; a rare dignity.
The principal subject discussed by
the eminent lawyer was "a Higher
Nationality" meaning literally "the
moral sense of a people," but which, as
the distinguished jurist explained, was
so well expressed in the German word
"Sittlichkeit.' The able orator de-
scribes this as
The system of guidance which regu-
lates conduct and which differs from
law and individual conscience in its
character and sanction. 1t applies, like
the law. to all members of a society
alike without distinction of persons. 1t
resembles the morality of conscience
in that it is enforced by no legal COM
pulsion.
This "Sittlichkeit," then, is the sys-
TEN of habitual or customary conduct,
ethical, rather than legal, embracing
all these obligations of citizens. which
it is bad form" to disregard. His
lordship added quite pertinently:
The system is accepted so generally
and is held in so high a regard that
none can venture to disregard it with
out in some way suffering at the hands
of his neighbors for so doing If a
man maltreats his wife or children. or
habitually jostles his fellow-citizens on
the street, or does things fagrantly
selfish or in bad taste, he is pretty
sure to find himself in the minority
and the worse off in the end.
The conclusion should be obvious
Not only does it not pay to do these
things, but no decent man would wish
to do them. The "Sittlichkeit" Of ma
tions differs and may degenerate; it
may conflict with law and morality.
as in a duel. But even here the force
OF an ethical public sentiment prac-
tically has eliminated the duel from
civilization.
What the Lord Chancellor had to
say OF the relations existing between
the United States and Canada was
nothing but what had been expected
He reminds us that socially, physically,
and industrially the two great neigh
boring countries are very much alike.
So was ambition, habit, speech, and
custom to an extent as to render it
difficult to distinguish the people from
one side OF the border from their
neighbors. He emphasized the re-
markable fact that between them
stretches frontier of 1000 miles
without a single fort Though having
much in common, like two individuals
of temperament nearly alike, they find
it harder to get along amicably than
would those of opposite type (What

combining the traditional Anglo-Saxon
virtues, will appeal to the highest in
stinct OF the race, and may inspire its
realization.
