AMBASSADOR'S INDISCRETION
.. Leslies Weekly: Why Ambassador
Storer, our representative at the court
of Italy, should take it upon himself
to interfere in a conference with the
pope and his cardinals at the Vatican
with respect to the nomination of Arch
bishop Ireland for the American cardi
.nalatc it is hard to understand. The
St. Paul prelate may richly deserve this
highest of ecclesiastical preferments
and be in all respects the best and
fittest man for the appointment, but
there is decided difference of opinion
among the American Roman Catho
lics on these points. At all events it
is a matter of church politics into
which Ambassador Storer had no bus
iness to inject himself nor the govern
ment which he represents. It helps
the case but little to say that Mr. Stor
er interceded in behalf of Archbishop
Ireland as a personal friend and well
wisher and not in his official capacity.
No such distinction will be made and
no such construction placed upon the
conference at the Vatican by those who
read the cabled announcement of the
affair. It will stand for a precedent of
Its kind, which was neither safe nor
wise, and which 110 man fully cogniz
ant of all the interests he represents
and the nature of the office he holds,
would have made. The church and the
state are not confided to Ambassador
Storer's care.
H
IDEAS OF AN INVENTOR.
V 'fpr, i
Collier's Weeklyv No more striking
way of handling a fortune has been
discovered than Mr. Gordon McKay's
bequest of
$4,000,000
to Harvard Col­
lege for science, while his sons receive
$100
a year, with perhaps a little more
in the future. He hais thrown into re
jieLihe importance of scientific study in
TMif'dtty-, :Jmk1 hp, has put. into active
frf'S^fice ideas which are ostensibly held
by jSii*. Andrew Carnegie and other
critics of wealth. I11 judging such be
quests the general world must leave
out ^iny personal details which might
contribute to the result, as it knows
nothing of the family relations or the
natures of the boys. The interesting
question is on the principle involved.
VVe ^re inclined to think that Mr. Mc
Kays'act, if it represents a principle,
will seem extreme to the majority of
liberal-minded Americans. To have left
$.?.ooo,ooo to Harvard and divided $1.
000,000
among his sons would have been
liberal to science and would have giv
en the boys a better chance in the
world, if they are made of good mater
ial wisely directed. If a youth is not
able to use a favorable pecuniary start
to advantage, there must be something
wrong in his nature, or, what is more,
likely, in his bringing up. The worship
of the self-made man, which was rife
a generation ago. has disappeared, and
the principles which make it well for
a bAy to have money spent upon his
education also make it well for him to
have the advantage of some money in
begjiAing independent life, provided he
is strong enough to use it to enlarge
his Opportunities instead of diminish
ing "his responsibilities. Nevertheless,
although that truth ean hardly be de
nied' the general influence of a will like
Mr. jMc'Kay's is good, in as f&r as it
raises the banner of public spirit and
intellectual ardor against the too ram
pant- spirit of private wealth.

A NEW DOCTRINE NEEDED.

principle of American statesmanship for
the better part of a century. What we

some follower of Monroe in some oth

that the United States will not be per

WHY NOT SHAKE HANDS?
Collier's Weekly: "Here's hoping
that Uncle Sam may choke to death on
the nertt bite he takes of Canada," is
the pious toast of a Toronto paper.
Now this seems to us a little hard.
Uncle Sam means fairly well and is
friendly to his northern neighbor.
Choking to death would be an unpleas
ant end, and a. severer.punishment than
the old gentleman desewes. Canada
and the United States have reason to be
friends. They are near together, they
speak the same tongue and have, similar
origins, and they have no vital con
flicting interests. We seem to like
Canada better than Canada likes us.
Certainly we have no evil designs upon
her. Whether she remains part of the
British Empire, or sets up in business
herself, or decides to go into partner
ship with us, we shall continue to re
gard her as a friend. If Mr. Chamber
lain has his way, her remaining part
of the British Empire may possibly
mean less dollars for us, but we shall
have 110 cause for complaint. There is a
good deal of patriotism up in Canada,
more feeling for the empire, we imagine,
than exists in any' other British
colony, and
We
should be sorry
to see any diminution. In the recent
argument we only maintained what we
honestly believed to be the'truth, and
vve ought not to be scolded for the deci
sion of a judicial tribunal. Let us be
genial and each drink to the other's con
tinued prosperity. It would be a sorry
sight to see your Uncle Samuel choke to
death, and we cannot believe our neigh
l)or really desires that spectacle.
Alpheus D. Dubois, for fifty-three
years principal of a public schol in New
York city, died the other day after lead
ing the life of a recluse for many years.
It was then learned that he was worth
about $500,000. The petition for pro
bate of will sets forth that a widow,
Julia Dubois, survives him, and there is
this strange clause in the will: "I give
and bequeath to my daughter, Ivy
Blanche, married, name and residence
unknown, $io ooo. No reference what
ever is made in the will to the widow.
