Two Great Funds and the War.

Whatever may have been the public conception Of
the Rockefeller Foundation and the popular sentiment
with regard it in the past the decision to devote
Sz75ooo of the fund to the purpose of providing the
necessares of life for the stricken and suffering
people of Belgium deserves and will receive the ap
proval of the civilized world. Mr. Rockefeller has
recognized and grasped the greatest Opportunity of
his lifetime to do good The cruel fate of the Bel
gians, which they invited only by being brave and
patriotic has made direct and irresistible call upon
the sympathies of the American people. In making
substantial a contribution to nationwide
deavor to feed and clothe the starving, miserable
thousands of Europes devastated battle ground, Mr.
Rockefeller will win the admiration of his country
appealing cause of the Belgians upon which to be-
stow it He has selected for riches for which
there can be only commendaton. The purposes, or
alleged purposes of the Rockefeller Foundation have
been subjected to repeated attacks by statesmen in
Congress- by demagogues and other orators, by pu-
tocrat baters and in the public press but the object
now selected for the expenditure of more than a
quarter of million of its funds is unassailabe.
Meantime the 100000 income of the Carnegie
Endowment for International Peace presumably is
still being used for the propaganda designed to pre-
vent what has already happened in Europe and what
has led to the opportunity embraced by the Rookie
feller Foundation. Though Mr. Rockefeller is in the
field ahead of Mr. Carnegie it is not late for the
Endowment to pour outfits for the allevia-
ton of the untold suffering brought about by the
worlds greatest war; which it powerless to pre-

Japan's Tea Trade.

An improvement has been seen it the Empires
tea trade with the United States and it is under
stood that measures about to be tried which are
calculated to improve the same trade with other
countries
The export of tea to America at one time totally
ceased because of the war. but business has lately
been resumed thanks to the possibility of drawing
documentary bills, to the marked improvement in
the American markets, and to the appearance of
wouldbe buyers in anticipation of an increased duty
The tea trade of course suffers like any other branch
of foreign trade from certain difficulties OF transpor
tafon and the rise of the insurance schedule But.
for geographical and international reasons Japanese
tea has lately acquired more advantageous position
than Ceylon Chinese tea, and many merchants are
in favor Of taking this opportunity to extend the
markets. Hence the various schemes devised by the
Central Council of Tea Traders and other similar
bodies
AS the chief method of extending the market in
America, good deal Of attention and energy will be
devoted to the Panama-Pacihc Exposition, where tea
rooms and various other devices will be employed.

America on the z4th-Japan Times.

California Wants Belgians.

California wants the expatriated Belgians. A CON-
mttee made up of planters viticultursts, fnanciers
and statesmen is raising money and hopes induce
many of them to settle California soil The propo-
sition is to allot large amount of land in small
sections. but several times large as the Belgians
have cultivated at home, to supply them with seed
food and homes that they may begin early next
spring to raise crops.
This is a sound proposition 1t contemplates get

Chief Justice cOvingtou, of the District Supreme
Court, who recently went from the House of Repre-
sentatiyes to the bench, told meeting of citizens
that he quite certain that the majority of the
members Of the Senate and House viii never con-
sent to taking any step which would not be step
forward IN the system of maintenance and that they
viii consent to putting the burden of nIainte-
nance on residents of the Capital" The people Of
Washington are quite prepared to believe this but
the great trouble is that this friendly majority of
Representatives and Senator'S, by not protesting,
really give consent to legislation inmieal to the well
fare of the Capital engineered by few of its enemies.
The Chief Justice, however gave his audience valu-
able advice in urging them to develop better mutual
understanding between members Of Congress and
the people Of the District The active interest and
support of those men in Congress who believe in a
progressive rather than deteriorating Capital IS
object worth striving for.

Informed than any other member OF

spect to the personal and intellectual
characteristics OF each member. but also
the more important Incidents OF his
career.
remember one evening in the early
spring of 1881, Just after the close Of
/. the regular session Of Congress, when I
spent an hour with Mr.. Randall in his
study. which was an upper chamber in
the little home he occupied within a
stones throw OF the Capital BY some
chance the name Of John A. Rasson, Of
the Des Moines. Iowa, district was mem
toned and Mr.. Randall said that he pre-
sumed-as was the case with so many
other public servants-that a measure
which was Of vast importance and value
TO the United States and which was
the result of the persevering and intel
ligent labors Of Mr.. Kasson would. in
time to come. not be associated with
Mr.. Kassoffs name. His service would
be forgotten. but the beneficial effects
Of IL would be recognized throughout
the country and ultimately throughout
the world.
For a few moments, Mr.. Randall sat
musing, gently stroking his cheek with
what was for him characteristic move
ment. Then he was engaged in deep
thought. At last he said:
"Kasson possesses one Of the keenest
as well as profoundest lntellects OF which
I have any knowledge. Curiously
enough, however. he does not attribute
whatever successes he has gained to
any other gift than a capacity for pro-
longed and thorough work and an equal
capacity for utilizing knowledge that he
has gained through that work 50 that
II can be put to practical use. Kasson
is a profound scholar. yet I suppose he
takes no pride In his scholarly attain
ments. He believes that the scholar
pure and simple, Is a sort of hermit,
and that scholarship II of no conse-
quence unless II IL made available for
practical service.
Lincoln, whose shrewdness In read
ing men has not yet been fully aeknowl-
edged. must have thoroughly understood
Kasson's intellectual power and his dis
position to make use OF his power for
practical purposes.
Did you know that the second nom

he sent in the names Of his Cabinet for

he nominated as First Assistant Post

The complaints made at the meeting of the Mount
Pleasant Citizens Association of the long delay in
rebuilding the Western High School is well founded.
Almost six months have elapsed since the fire. and but
little progress has been made toward getting the
building ready for occupancy During the summer
some concern was expressed because, through neg

Fifty years ago today the United States

Said Theodore Roosevelt, in speech at Prince
ton, n. j.: Il myself have seen the plans of two
of the countries now engaged in the European war
TO invade the United States, capture our greater
cities and hold them for ransom" Surely the former
President must have communicated these plans of
invasion to the War Department he learned
of them and it is reasonable to assume that effective
steps have been taken to circumvent them. Il is
surprising, however if this really has been DONE that
the government has been able to keep the whole thing
secret 1t would be interesting to hear from the
Colonel too Just how ii happened that he was per-
mitted to these plans Possibly when he was hob
nobbing with European rulers on one of his trips
