Postal Union, VOLUME 58.......0cceccecensacesssscesesecsesNO, 18,759 ——— A SPECTACLE AND A LESSON. actions of William Rockefeller as he dodges and defies the authority of the Government under whose protec- tion he has prospered. Corporations profess to wonder why they are “hounded” and “persecuted,” as they whiningly call it. Here’s one reason: The atti- tude of men who do what Mr. Rockefeller is doing. This country has been trying hard of late years to get light on ‘ite big problems of currency, finance and business. Quite naturally it hes had questions to ask of ite great industrial and financial leaders who have thriven under its laws. Big business has professed an hon- est wish to help with its stores of fact and experience. In face of such plain defiance as that of Mr. Rockefeller is it to be wondered if the public suspects insincerity behind these professed desires for financial and commercial reform? The days when investigating committees representing the Na- tional Government said “Ilease, sir,” to the men they wanted to question are over. Plain summons is now the order of the day. Wise magnates recognize that acquiescence is the best policy. J. P. Mor- gan, the peer of them all, did not dodge. Mr. Rockefeller might better have followed that example. By his attitude of contemptuous defiance and concealment he is doing the cause of “big business” irreparable harm. Let him comply with the law first and plead his health afterward. No wrong or injustice will be done him or his affaire. We beg him to recall the words of Socrates in the face of a far more terrible eum- mons: No harm can come to a good man, here or anywhere else. ——_-4=>_—___—_. GOV. SULZER. i: ae nimbleness and sure-footed independence shown by the WW’ RECOMMEND “big business” to take a good look at the | new Governor of the State of New York in stepping up to the gubernetorial chair has mode an excellent impression. His arrival at Albany was no triumphal entry of a great party dis- veneer smiling upon the outstretched palms and oily greetings of the “boys.” He faced the army of the expectant, looked them coolly in ihe eye, and put aside the gled hands and the confidential messages. He told them to file their applications, and when he had appointments to make he would make them in public. He marched about the town on foot, took up his duties as if he liked them, and altogether be- haved himeelf like a man honored with a job of which he is proud and doesn’t care who knows it. Pride in a job is a good start toward doing it well. In hie idea of how'a Governor ghould be inaugurated the people are with Gov. Sulse>. They like his simplicity, they like his earnestness, they like his frank delight in the honor—above all they like his independence. Yeeterday eaw him inaugurated not only into the Governorship |: but into the-cordial.approval and good wiehes of the State. apo —_—_— SEEDS OF SANITY. WRGN'T remarkable for eaneness.
