FEBRUARY 17, 1896 A PROPER USE OF WEALTH. la yesterday's Oregonian a moat re markable statement was made in aj editorial, where it was declared that the reason the charter for a certain secret society, asked for by students in the University of Chicago, was refused, was because scrupulous-minded persona de Aired to avoid fellowship with colleges like Chicago and Stanford Universities, "which are sustained with money ac quired in corruption and dishonor, and so disqualified p hold up the highest standards of moral and ethical culture." .Such a statement will wound the lensl ""biiities of many people who, as admirers of the Oregonian and friends of that J.h?r education gf which tbe Chicago -h-2 Stanford Universities fare In the front rank of promoters, feel that much injustice id done them. It is true that the methods by which Eockefeller and Stanford acquired their immense wealth are questioned by "scrupulous-minded persons;" but this being granted, the institutions -which have been the recipients of their generous gifts ure no less qualified to do a great and lasting work in showing bright boys and girls the boundless op portunities for advancing and doing good to the world, which the fields of knowledge present. Were such logic as that of the Oregonian correct, all rich men, who by sharp practice have ob tained wealth, should be prohibited from dropping in the contribution basket as it passed a tithe for charity or for the carrying on of religious work which teaches that tbe getting of wealth is not the chief end of man. Were this logic, correct, the great benevolences, which can only come from the class rep resented by Stanford and Rockefeller, would cease, and the asylums, hospitals and schools, which every day are doing a grand work for humanity, would suffer for want of sustenance. It is results that count, after all. "Union College, one of the older institu tions in New York, was founded upon a land lottery schemei a method that per sons "scrupulous minded" would con demn, and yet some of the purest, most high-minded and ablest citizens of the country were graduated from this insti tution, whose birth was in corruption. Were the history of our greatly endowed universities unfolded, and the methods by which their founders amassed their fortunes laid bare, it is more than likely the Oregonian would bo further dis pleased. Johns Hopkins, who made possible the great university and hospi tal bearing his name, dabbled in Balti more & Ohio railroad stock, and was spoken of in much tbe same way as Rockefeller and Stanford- are today Stephan Girard, whose munificence gave to Philadelphia an institution whose name and influence is world-wide, made money where other men conld not, and Buffered the reproach and condemna tion of those who were not so fortunate as he, and yet the world is infinitely better off because Hopkins and Girard, unable to part with their money in their life time, left it for philanthropic and educational purposes. It is better that a portion of the Standard Oil Company and Central Pacific earnings be devoted to causes that are good than that it be turned in other channels. Whatever the reason why the Omega society was not given a charter at Chi cago may be, we do not know;, but every college and fraternity man will be assured that there are many causes which are far more apt to be nearer cor rect than that given by the Oregonian. The house has spent a day discussing Secretary Morton and his refusal to pro vide seeds for free distribution. The seed question itself is not of paramount importance, but in it is involved the graver consideration whether or not a minsterial officer can exercise legisla tive or judicial functions. The attack, both in the senate and the bouse, upon Morton, and the refusal of anyone to take his part, shows that congress is tired of having the veto power placed in the bands of subordinates. The coun try welcomes the seed incident as a re lief from the senseless and reprehensi ble action of the silver agitators, whose buncombe and manipulation have so consumed time that the great interests of the nation are neglected. There seem9 a disposition among cer tain .newspapers to view every incident f.-om a bitter partisan standpoint. An illustration is found in tbe treatment given Senator Coggswell and the com- ments made upon the announcement of his determination to leave the Demo cratic party and support the principles of protection. Coggswell is not the highest type of statesmanship which even Oregon affords, but the most cred itable act of his political career has been his latest. A man, no matter what his station and politics are, should be given credit for proper motives till the absence of them is clearly shown. No one should be condemned for honestly changing his opinion, no matter how firm that opinion may have been fixed. Coggswell has done what thousands of other men in Oregon are doing, who by tbe sharp touch of adver sity have been brought to realize what a devastating thing the Democratic pol icy of free trade has been. .When the sun rises on the day after the Novem ber election it will be found that Cogs well is but one of a vast number who, Democrats once, are Republicans now.
