It+fan't often that our Beceancers talk. But when they do they leave very little doubt as to the actual attitude of Wall st. and ite votaries toward our sye tem of government whieh used to be for and of and by the people The government occasionally inaists upon ashing pertinent and searching questions. Harriman, when his turn op the rack came, evaded when he cout and forgot when he dared. At last they drove him {nto a corner and squeezed a fractional part of the real facts out of him. At thie-he was so overcome that he was unable te hide his resentment He had been forced to tell a part of the truth, And it wade bim indignant. It tnsalted him. We bad presumed too mach. We had forgotten who he was, and what interests he rep resented. We had treated him like one of the common people, We Lind had the unparalleled audacity to ask him questions, and we had Ret been careful of our wording. We had dared to speak familiarly of money, particularty hie moary ‘The honest people of this country may well take fewue with Har timan on his definition of “success” Sweeese to him, among other things, means the looting of the Chicago @ Alton rallroad, the prop erty of the stockholding public and one of eur great national av: enwes, of $2,000,000 for his personal profit and that of bis asso ciates Success, according to Harriman, means altting in an office ta Broadway, and, through {nfiuences more powerful than any ose man should contro}, buying « railroad today, mortgaging it for the pur chase price tomorrow, and then, next day, watering tt for millions more than {tx xetual physical value No, Harriman, that te net saecesa Gaining wealth ts « laudable profession for thase who desire it, and most of us da but we mene ure success by the yardatich of honest ethfes We don't call the seo en@-story man who keeps ost of jall, successful, you know ‘This ‘plaint of Harriman'’s comes aa an acceptable addition to the growing list of fine sentiments expressed within reeent memory by our financial lords We romember beet of al? the arrament of Geo. F. Baer, head of the anthracite coal trust. Els words were: “The rights and interests of the laboring man will be protected by the Christian men and women to whom God fm Hie infinite wir @om bas given he property interests of Ube country.” Baer thereby made it clear that the rich can do no wrong. ‘That, af course, was why insurance companfes contributed to politieal campaigns. ‘That was why young Rockefelier could send telegrams to she United States senators, ordering them to kf! anti-trust legistation ‘That. was why Paul Morton need not have biushed when be said on the stand that his railroad had entered inte comtracts admittedly ‘legal ‘That was why the Pennesyivania railroad could spend $500,000 effecting legisiation desire? in connection with its New York ter minals. ‘That was why J.
