Social Unrest.
to Origin Pound In Human Oroed, Not In * Intoloratal*
Condition*.’*
By a Conservative.
•™*™^mOMSMBNTTNQ on an editorial In The Bun on "The Rising Tlda ol
I °* Soelallam,” H. p. Hough expresses his opinion or the cause ol
. I I social unrest by asserting that "present Industrial conditions
■MaJ have become Intolerable and demand radical treatment. Social
I lam in offered aa a remedy, and all signs point to its adoption. In
ISbBSp whole or In part. In the near figure."
Mr. Rough and those who share hla rlcw of the "preeent in
tolmwMe Industrial condition" fall utterly In their diagnosis. Complaint* of
praaani conditions eoou cplaiv from tbe vus earners of tha country. Tet
tot arguments are flatly contradicted by the achievements of which labor
■helm bouts, and are clearly destroyed by facts which are beyond dental.
Industrial coedltiou of today are far from intolerable. So far as this
•oantry In concerned, it la doubtful if tba history of tbe world shows any period
fla any nation la which the conditions of tbe Ilfs of the wage earner wore so
amorally tolerable as they are In the United Slates at tbe present time.
In nil the departments of our national Uto there are weaknesses, raulta and
wide divergence from the Ideal. So It has ever been and so will It be until
She millennia*; but n declaration that any of them are intolerable can be
made only with a total disregard of facts. There Is widespread discontent
mad unrest, bat It does not spring from the conditions under which tbe life of
-tbe wage career is lived. Never before have wage earners been so wall fed.
ee well and ao comfortably housed and clothed at they are in the United States
•today. Never before bare the savings of wage earcers been so large in amount
to their aggregate, or so large per capita, as they are today. Never before has
the man who works bulked so big in the control of sStlre. The disease tor
which socialism la offered aa a remedy la Imaginary.
There Is n disease of which discontent, unrest and socialism are symp
tom*. It Is n moral disease, and It Is Incurable by statutory laws, by schemes
for n cooperative commonwealth, by shorter days of tabor, by Ineroused wages,
by public ownership or Federal control of industries and transportation, or by
•nr ether panacea offered by socialism. Its cause la human greed, envy of
those who "have" by those who "have not.” Excited nnd stimulated by dams
pgiu tad theorists, this essentially human trait finds Its largest expression
daring n time of prosperity. Out of greed aud envy there springs a notion
that "those who have" acquired their possessions through some form of dts
hoeeety. The recent exposure of some whose wealth has been obtained by
questionable or by criminal methods has stimulated ibis belief, and the belief
boa widened until it Includes nil who are counted rich.
The evil of today exists In the henrts of men and not In 'Intolerable In
doetrial conditions." Statutory laws may palliate, to some extent, the condl
tVras, but they cannot cure the ovlL
* Fraternalism Will
Drive Out Graft/
By Dr. Lyman Abbott.
WANT to girt you my Interpretation of the future, with whoee
okaying you will have something to da In the history of the
world there have been three conceptions of the social order.
Tha drat of these to autocracy, the second Individualism and the
third fraternalism.
to the coming age nil the creeds find sects will be united,
because the coming age la to be a frateraai one. Every age has
toad tts vices and Its virtues. The Nineteenth Century has had vlcea. all due
to the aaaae source. Tha drat vice has been that of accumulation; the second
vtoe la tha lawlessness of self-will.
We hear of the crimlaal class. Can. you tell me who belongs to the crim
inal class? Do the Insurance directors who bought stocks low and sold them
at high prices to Ufa companies of which they were directors? Do the railroad
ndlclsls who broke the taw of the land and now stand convicted? Do the coal
carriers who did, by a "gentlemen's agreement," that which was agatnat the
law?
Thors la ana remedy for all this. Society should be considered as a unit,
flo, young men, go not to ace how much you can accumulate, but what you can
Attala. Already accumulation Is on trial.
We have learned that the best Interest of the community la not nerved by
eaeh man voting for his on Interest. He must look after the national wel
fare.
Tho age you enter has been called Socialistic, but that la false: It has
horns called communistic, but that la false: It la fraternal. The man of the h»
taro will recognise the organisation of society to the upbuilding of the com*
■natty, the natloo and the Church of God.

ALL POUND READY PURCHASERS
Palmetto National Bank of Colombia
One of the Heaviest of Nine Bid*
den.
----.
I Washington, Special—One firm, one
1 individual and seven national bank*
in all nine—receive more than $25,
000,000 of the $30,000,000 Panama
bond award. lores than $5,000,000
is awarded to several hundred indi
viduals and bank?.
These nine bidders are:
Fish & Robinson, N. Y., $15,000,
000.
Samuel Byerly, N. Y., $5,379,000.
Merchants’ National Bank, Philadel
phia, 93,000,000.
Palmetto National Bank, Columbia,
8. C., $330,000.
Merchants’ National Bank, Balti
more, Md., $300,000.
Columbia National Bank, Qrafton,
W. Va, $150,000.
Yanktou National Bank, Ft Wayne,
Ind., $100,000.
Of this $25,000,000, more than $20,
000,000 it awarded to other than na
tional bauks aud of the $5.000,POO
not speeifiad here, Ices than 92.500,000
it awarded to banks in small amount*.
lu round figure* this means that
national banks received $7,000,000
bonds and under Secretary Shaw’s
promise will receive one-third of
their award in government money, for
which they can deposit Panama bonds
aa security. This puts behind gove
ernment money in banks which receiv
ed awards of bonds $2,33.1,000, and
leaves the successful bank bidden
with $4,607,000 Panama bonds.
As shown, Fisk & Robinson and By
erly have between them over $20,
000,600 aud other individuals $3,
000,000. This makes $23,000,000 held
by individuals and $4,667,000 beld by
national banka iu excess of their de
posits in the banks receiving awards.
This makes, therefore, $27,067,000
Panama bonds, for market purpose*.
The Panama bonds can be used^M
security for public deposits whiJS
are now secured by State, city and
railroad hoi ids. There are $17,000'
000 of these aud Secretary Shaw ha*
directed that they be replaced .with
government bonds, Panama bond*,
Philippine or Hawaiian bonds. This
provides a resting plsee for $17,000,
000 of the $27,067,000 Pansuns bonds
on the market. This leaves 910,667,
000 Panama bonds. All bsnks that
bid 103.50 for Paoama bonds under
Secretary Shaw’s promise, will be
designated public depositoriee and re
ceive part of the $20,000,000 treas
ury money whieb be is prspariag to
put oat This will make 900,000,000
government money in banks when so-*
li< r< is eomplstsd.
Will be permit these banks to de
posit Pansma bonds as aeenrity, ha
says. If he dees then the balance of
the Panama bonds will have a snag
berth. He may, in order to keep np
the price of 2a, require them to be
put np by banks which aeeept desig
nation of publie depositories and re
ceive government funds.
Of the 6,000 odd national hank*
