Pocket boot Prayers. A presumably insane crank took a not shot at J, P. Morgan, the New York money baron, and im mediately we commenced to read j in the uress that "prayers are being said in many of the churches for hia recovery." All of which would be very good and commendable if it didn't begin with Drayenr for Morgan and stop with prayers for] Morgan. We have nothing personal agalnt Mr. Morgan, who may be a very descent sort of person for all we know to the contrary, but we can not suppress a feeling of nausea as the manner in which certain ministers rushed into the limelight bv sending up prayers for the re covery of the man who has money, i Mr. Morgan's olaim to fagie is due solely to the fact that he is the son of his father and one of the richest men in the country. He has never set the world afire by any of bis personal deeds, and just why he should he singled out for special prayers when others of equal merit can not get even a chirp ia beyond pur jayman's compre hension. To the man who maki s a practice of analyzing things as he find them it is rather tiresome?in fact, it is something of a reflection upon the sincerity of those preachers who pray for the rich and forget the poor. We wjsh Mr. Murgen wall, a? we do the beggar in the street, but we fear many of those prayers were aimed at the Morgan pockot book and ascended no higher than the ceiling.
