Motives In Giving
BY Charles P. Andrews.

The reasons which move a person
to take any action are termed mo-
tives. The same motive may impel
different persons to widely different
acts. Take the love Of gain for in
stance. 1t may. make one person a
thief another a miSer and another
an industrious, economical citizen.
In the same way, differing motives
may induce different persons To per-
form the same act This is the case
in giving. one may be moved with
sympathy for the suffering; another
may give from a sense Of duty to
humanity at large; a third may feel
that he owes il to the community I'm
which he lives to help support its
various institutions; fourth may
simply wish to be in the fashion
giving because others do Still an
other may regard himself as an
agent OF a higher power in the man
agement of his property, and give
because he regards il as a supreme
duty TO do all the good he can with
the means at his disposal. such an
one would probably not call his act
giving, but rather the paying Of dues
for benefits received in advance.
Some one or other Of these motives
applies to all givers, whether the
widow with her two mites or the
rich casting OF their abundance into
the treasury; whether the child with
his penny. the laborer with his dime,
or a Rockefeller or Carnegie with his
millions. May each and all OF them
impel a generous giving during

JUST A NEWSPAPER STORY

NCOlumDuS DlSpalcQ.)
No neWsp per man can hear the
statement, It's just a newspaper
story" without some feeling of re-
sentiment The sentence, often spoken
thoughtlessly or TO characterize a
statement that one does not want to
believe, is an unpleasant reflection on
the work of men who, for the most
part are ever doing their utmost to
ascertain the facts. In this work,
they are often hampered, but by moth
ing more often than by the thought
lessness of informants and sometimes
their desire 10 misrepresent the facts.
Unhappily, too, there are persons who
think things and say things which
when in print they regret having said
and escape responsibility for them by
blaming the reporter or interviewer.
They thus contribute TO the sentiment
found in the phrase, Just a news
paper story"
1t may at once be taken for granted
that the average newspaper reporter
is the most unbiased Of all observers
or auditors. 1t is his business to get
the truth and TO the best of his ability
TO state it. If he fails in that he
is lacking in the first requisite Of a
good reporter. Today, more than ever
before, it is the newspapers business
in all that it prints to tell the truth;
and if there is any actual failure on
its part. il is chiefly because the truth
has not all developed or because the
source OF the information is unrelia
bic. OF this latter a reporter comes
with experience TO judge, but there
are always some new informants upon
whom some chance must in the neces-
sary hurry be taken. So, IL is no
more than fair for every person who
uses the phrase. lust a newspaper
story" 10 ask just how much he and
others not in the newspaper business
have contributed in one way or an
other 10 its creation.

THE JURY SYSTEM.
(SDringfeld. o. News !

A subscriber complains at the jury
system in this country. He says that
he has been around the court houses
a good deal, and that he does not find
representative men" serving on the
jury, that in most instances the juries
seem to be made up of fellows who
hang around the courthouse" and
he believes, therefore, that there is
something wrong with our jury sys-
tenn. He asks the editor to condemn
it,"
There is nothing wrong with our
jury system. The system is about the
best that could be devised If the
average jury IS not up to the stand
ard in the matter Of citizenship, it is
the fault of the court, rather than of
the jury system.
But it is true that the people them
seIves-these very people of whom the
subscriber complains and who are not
seen on the jury-do not do their duty
as regards jury service. They seek
always to escape jury duty, and when
summoned they make every posi- bl e
plea to be excused. So it has come
to be the case that many men who
ought to serve upon juries are, for one
reason or another, excused from such
duty.
The average man is a mighty poor
sort Of a citizen, any way. He wants
to escape too much of the-burden of
citizenship. Only about 70 per cent
of them so much as take the trouble
to vote. Only a small per cent of the
people take any interest in politics.

except the day of the election. That
is to say they do not keep up with
government They do not visit public
institutions and see for themselves
how things are running. They do not
attend meetings of legislative bodies,
or pry into the why's and wherefores
of public acts as they would if the
matters pertained to their own pri-
| vate occupations. And as for this
duty of serving on the jury-a duty
that every man owes to himself and

POOR MTSERABLE GHOST.

It's going to be terribly hard times
for the reactonaries.
Pres't Wilson has managed nation
al affairs so well that the reactionary
platform has got TO be confined very
largely to raising the old tariff ghost,
clothed in extraordinary calamity
rags. Already Fairbanks and such
have lighted the blue fire for proper
resuscitation Of ghost aforesaid, and
we're hearing lots about the invasion
by cheap goods and cheap labor, after
the war
Unfortunately for the ghost,
amongst others, the war bids fair to
outlast our next national campaign.
and the iron and steel magnates are
so busy turning out war goods at enor-
nous profits that it's doubtful if even
good old Mark Hanna could fry
enough fat out of them to put much
spirit and action into the ghost And
it sure does take much fat to make
that ghost CO.
OF course, nobody knows what the
actualities will be. after the war, but
these points are apparent and incon-
trovertible:
That at the end Of the second year
Of the war at least 100000 of the
best workmen of Europe will have
been destroyed, both as makers of
cheap goods and as possible immigrant
cheap labor.
That Europe will have to rehabili-
tate herself, with a more or less Sc
rious shortage of workers.
Speaking theoretically merely, given
strong demand for products and a
shortage OF hands that produce. you
don't get cheaper things but dearer.
During late months. more aliens
have been leaving this country than
have been coming in and vastly more
products have been going out than
have been imported. The aliens GO
ing abroad are from our element called
cheap labor 1t is not improbable but
likely that many of them will find in
Europe, after the war, as good wage
| opportunities as they have enjoyed
over here. While large portion OF
our present exports is directly due to
the war, Europe must rebuild and it
/ is a fair guess that her demands upon
us in time OF peace Will be very. very
/ heavy for some time after the war.
I That old tariff ghost doesn't seem
\ to fit the times at all. There doesn't
seem to be any psychological moment

breathed it's dust all his life. has
just given up some $500 to the an
