"While tho nile Is not univeisal thete is often a flail; side to tho benevolence of the king of a coipoiatlon. The plu tuto on one hand of wealth dispensed with lavish hand In vvoithy eluultles and In aid of Institutions of public benefit can scaicely obsciuo the upec' (u'.'le of Iudust(Ial oppies.sion, gilnd ns tho f.un of the pool and iilthlessly tumiplng to iiiln oveiy commeiclal on (erpilso that endenvois to ovist In rjnmpetltlon to the advance of monopo listic gieod, It is a Htiango paiadox that ovvneis of wealth thus acquit el Miould exhibit a deslro to devote It to woil.s of bcnellcence calculated to bilug the masses to a higher guide of Intelligence.

It may be thnt hid charge was merely a device to cover up hit Incompetence as on Instiuclor; hut the same can not l said of ex-Probldcnt Andrews, of Uiown, or es-Hrssldent UogVrs. of Noithweateni. Yhorv was no effort t conceal the fact that these men were asked tolrpfilgn their positions on ac count of political views to which they lintl rjlven evptesslon. It Is Indisputable Hint, In lime pnst, the acceptance of lame endow ments by tollcges lin lunl the effect of 10 Htrlctlng the teachings of those col leges. This fact was appreciated nt Wellcsley, when, earlier In tho yerr, Mr. liockofellcr offered a contribution nf $100,000, nnd a number of the facul ty ptosented a memorial to tho tins tees protesting against tho accept ance of the gift, hecnttso of thcHcnt" baiinKsmont which would surely ie suit when the department of economics should be engaged In the study of the Industrial conduct of ttusts like the Stnndaul Oil compony. The Incident at Wellcsley foinis the basis of nn at Help by Miss Scttdder, In the cut rent number of the Atlantic, and she has theie admit ably stated the ieas6ns why colleges, especially, should caiefully avoid the ncccptnnte or "tainted wealth." To quote fiom her ni Hole: "Flist, to Ignole a scruple Is to help stippiess It.
