Grafting in Business.
USCONSIN has attempted to ryevent by law
jthe bribery of employes. In Germany the
jcourts recently decided a case of this char-
| acter. A manager of. a car-building concern
'
aaccepted a couiissiou' from a firm for which he
procured orders. He was discharged when
this fact became known to the company which
employed him. lie claimed that he should not be , for such
g-jfts were customary and worked no injury to his em
ployers. The courts very properly held otherwise , deciding
that his action constituted a gross breach of trust and
that the manager was in duty bound to study the interests
.if his employers and not be influenced by selfish consider-
ttioris. According to our consul-general at Frankfort , who
lends the story , German business is honeycombed with
bribery oC this character , the abuse having grown to enor-
aious proportions of late. The Bavarian government has
been urged to pass legislation that will suppress this
bribing of employes , the Chamber of Trade and Commerce
urging that both the giver and the receiver of the bribe
De punished. The practice is first introduced by unscrupu
lous men , who thus seek to obtain an advantage over their
trade competitors. The honest traders are in time forced
.ro adopt the same policy or suffer the loss of a large portion
7f their business. All Uiis is evidence of the intensity of
the race to get money no matter at what cost that unfor
tunately marks the opening of the twentieth century.

Sing Us the Old Songs.
EIE old songs are best , for they carry us back
to the days that were radiant with sentiment ,
when we were part of poetry and romance.
They stir our natures in their profouudest
depths , and , reaching below the callous of our
putrescent hearts , play strange accompani
ments upon the long-disused seringa of our
remembrance. Who can resist the subtle potency of those
3ld songs that stop the world in tear-stniles that we may
svave a salutation back through a rift in the storm of years
to the youth and maiden of the Jong ago ?
That the old songs are best has been shown by the
perennial popularity of Pattl's "Home , Sweet Home , " Era-
aia. Abbott'o "Annie Laurie , " Jenny Lind's "Kathleen Ma-
v rourucen , " Christina Nilsson's "Way Down Upon the
Buvranee Iliver , " and Melba's "Coming Thro' the Rye. " We
not always associate these Immortal songs with the
singers who have included them in their concerts ,

No Pardons for Bank Wreckers.
RESIDENT ROOSEVELT has no executive
clemency to bestow on bank wreckers. Extra
ordinary pressure has been brought to bear
on him recently to secure the pardon of two
ank presidents who are in the penitentiary for
embezzling the funds of their banks.
The President is not a hard-hearted man. On
the contrary , he has a warm heart and an impulsive and
generous nature. He is not only intensely human but In
tensely humane. But he has also a strong sense of justice
and a high regard for the majesty of the laws. The execu
tor of the laws , according to his view , must know no dis
tinction of men.
Moreover the Rooseveltian idea is that where there
is a great trust there is a great responsibility. The banker
who voluntarily assumes the charge of tye people's money
must be held to a strict accountability. He trades on confi
dence. He Is the only man in the community of whom no
security , beyond that of his word , is required. His promise
to pay is a sacredly binding obligation. In his case a be-
traj'al of confidence Is a major crime.
Roosevelt does well in such instances to refuse a par
don. There must be no bending of the federal laws to
shield the rich culprits. DOS Moines News.
Cheaper Utilities.
T is worthy of remark that a number of the
great public service companies of our American
cities are showing a disposition materially to
reduce their rate of charges. The telephone
companies in most of the Eastern centers end ,
for aught we know to the contrary , in the
West , have made marked reductions in their
scale of charges under conditions which tend to increase
the volume of benefits which the subscriber to the system
can obtain. Of course , the ideal condition in telephone ser
vice is when every citizen has an instrument , so that com
munication can be had at will with every one. This is no
doubt impossible , but every reduction in the rate of tolls
tends to increase the number of subscribers , and in this way
add to the benefit of the entire service. The electric light
companies In a number of places have reduced their rates of
charge. In New York City the reduction has been notably
large , this apparently growing out of the belief that the
change would lead to larger usage and might in this way
find a justification for itself in increased earnings. Boston

Being Too Good.
RESIDENT HADLEY of Yale has stated a
j truth that has too generally been lost sight of.
( Most of us have been content with talking
( about men being bad in the hope of reforming
them ; President Hadley has a word to oay
I about the men who are too good. He has found
students under his care who lived by rule ,
erecting an artificial barrier about them to such an extent
that when their moral equipment sprang a leak even a
little leaktheir whole career foundered.
What a man needs for the business of life-is a series of
sin-tight compartments that will at least keep him afloat
until he can get back to his moral dry dock for repairs and
iew supplies. We do not need in this country any creature
'too bright and good for human nature's daily food. " Some
3f our most pronounced ills have flown from that class
ind they have come from the colleges , too. President Had-
ey is right. Give us morals and knowledge that will wash

LIFE MEN OWN GUILT.
Equitable Directors Admit Some O1V
flcials Violated Law by Peals.
Admitting that some of the officials
have been guilty of improper and illegal
acts , the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety has joined with the State of New
York in asking for a full investigation
in court of its directors and officers , and
their alleged mismanagement of th
money of the society.
The document containing the admission
and request was the reply filed by the
forty-nine directors of the society to tha
suit brought against it by the State. It
was filed with Attorney General Mayer.
Thirteen , charges are answered by tha
directors. They admit the loan of $250-
000 to the Depew Improvement Com
pany and $085,000 to the Mercantile
Trust Company , but waive responsibility
as far as the board ns a whole is con
cerned , indicating that Messrs. Alexan
der , Jordan and Deming had the mosl
definite knowledge of these transactions.
The charge that excessive salaries
were paid to officers of the Equitable
is not directly answered , but admission
is made that under guise of salaries ex
cessive fees were given to certain Equit
able officials who were also directors in
other companies. In defense the answer
states that these practices were not
known to the whole board of directors.
Outlining their belief as to the best
policy to pursue in fixing the blame for
the Equitable scandals , the directors say ,
first , that the blame for alleged cases of
misconduct will be found to rest on indi
vidual officers , and not upon the direc
tors as a body.
