THIS TO HIS CREDIT. Whatever we may think about John 0. Rockefeller and the ways in which he acquired his immense wealth, there are few who will not endorse the use which he is making of a part of it in sending prompt and generous succor to the Belgians. It is easy to say that he is only doing what he ought to do, and that he ought really to do a great deal more both at home and abroad. This may be very true; but how many of his carping critics do even a part of what they could and should do? At the best, or worst, Rockefeller has no monopoly on giving in this great human cause. Every one is free to compete with him in this to the full limit of one's gener osity and means. For once, it cannot be said he is crowd ing anybody out. What concerns us just now is that Rockefeller is do ing the right thing for once, anyhow, and in feeding the 'starving and clothing the naked sets an example that his severest critics cannot do better than follow. Nobody need worry about whether it is a "grandstand play" for effect or the result of genuine sympathy and a recognition of personal obligation. Nobody need take Rockefeller's motives as his 'own in giving. Each may give from his own motive. With a population greater than the city of New York suffering from hunger and exposure and hopelessness, there cannot be too many helpers, nor too many motives. Rockefeller's motive is probably no more mixed than those of the rest of us when we perform a good action. His "tainted" dollars will cany nothing but healing to his beneficiaries. Standard Oil as an angel of mercy will not be less efficacious than one with whiter wings. - , A STORY OF MAN'S INGRATITUDE. Brete Harte in one of his poems describes the love af- H ' n , i i i i m . . 1 i r lairs oi a cnemist wno aeviseu a garment miiaiea wun bvdroeen gas for his best girl so she could dance lightly. The result was that, slipping from the arms of her part ner, she sailed off into the skies, and the poet suggests that it is well to remember the maxim this lesson may teach that genius may lift its love out of its reach." A pitiful story pomes from Seattle of Hannah Silver berg, who is suing her husband for divorce. They were playmates in Finland and later worked side by side in a rubber factory at Woonsocket, Rhode Island. Naturally they married. He was ambitious and she was, woman like, loyal. He went to college while she toiled in the fac tory to pay his expenses, and when her father died sent him her little inheritance to pay his schooling. He be came a doctor; she remained a toiling, working, loving, self-sacnf icing woman. 1 hen came the end. He wrote her a letter, not perhaps cruel from his view point, Imtfrom hers bitter as death, cruel as the grave After all her sacrifice, he wrote: "It is necessary that a woman should be more enmpe tent than simply to cook and keep house. That suits a laborer very well, but an educated person craves for one who can do more than that, such as being posted in up-to-date life and in a general knowledge of higher ideals " From this viewpoint, Silverberg was, in a sense, cor rect, but how much more human it would have been to have given her a chance to have helped her to come up to his standard, even- as she had helped him. He threw down the ladder by which he had climbed, and she, poor woman, lifted her love out of her reach. Truly, it is a cruel world. lem The Tacoma Tribune thinks the creat financial nrob . .... . V oi the age is: 'How is a Mexican war financed?" Down in Mexico this is well understood. In the. earlier days they were financed by mining men who wanted mining concessions from the government and hence tried to make a government that would grant them. The min ers are small fry these days, as Rockefeller and the Eng lish oil trust have so far outbid them that they do not count. If a few of these big fellows could be punished for their unholy acts, there might be peace in Mexico. The dispatches Monday tell of an English aviator dropping a bomb into a small village and killing fourteen of its people. What better is he than any other cold-blooded assassin? It is bad enough for armed men to meet in desperate battle and destroy each other, but the cowardly assassins who from the skies drop deadly bombs into peaceful villages should be hanged as soon as caught. Ihere should be no hesitation in administering the pun ishment when the offense is proven, and the nation,' no matter which one, that permits this kind of warfare de serves the condemnation and contempt of all humanity. All the warring nations alike have been guilty of similar outrages against civilization. The sailors of the Russian ship Thomasina, who mu tinied, beat the second mate, locked him and the chief mate in the after cabin , and chased the. captain ashore, were arrested by the harbor patrol at Portland Saturday ana iccKea up. ihey will he returned to the vessel when she gets ready to sail. A closely-kept diary ai events on that ship after she gets outside the three-mile limit would. no doubt, make interesting reading. How it would be expressed in Russian is, of course, beyond our knowledge, but in classical modern English a description of the affair could perhaps be made in the brief sentence : "They won't do a thing to them.

The Tacoma Tribune suggests that one thing the poli ticians of that state should remember on Thanksgiving day is that the foot and mouth disease did not start until after the election was over.
