CARNEGIE ON LIFE PROBLEMS
Temperance the Greatest Virtue, In
Hla Opinion, and Next to
That Thrift.
The third venture of Andrew Carnegie
Into book writing beara tha title. "Prob
lema of Today: Wealth-Labor-Sociallsm."
It ia dedicated to Theodore Roosevelt, "a
good and great president, who has elevated
the standard of duty in both public, and
private life; foremost apostle of the 'aquart
deal' for all claaeea of men; a true man
of the people and a model cltiaen fn ex
ample and precept."
Early In the book Mr. Camegta give
hla vlewa on the taxing of estate at death
"It la difficult," he aaya, "to aet bounds
to the ahare of a rich man'a estate which
should go at hla death to tha public
through the agency of the atate. and by
all means such taxea should be graduated,
beginning at nothing upon moderate sums
to dependents and Increasing rapidly aa
the amounts swell, until of the million
aire's hoard, as of Shylock's. at least the
other half comes to the privy coffer ' of
the state.'
"This policy would work powerfully to
induce the rich man to attend to the ad
ministration of wealth during hla life,
which la the end which aoclety ahould al-v-rya
have In view, as being by far the
most fruitful for the people.
"Nor need It be feared that thla policy
would sap the root of enterprise and render
men lera anxious to accumulate; for, to the
class whose ambition It Is to leave great
fortunes and be talked about after death,
It will ba evan more attractive, and. In
deed, a aomewhat nobler ambition to have
enormous aunts paid over to the state
flrcm their fortunee."
Mr. Carnegie declarea unequivocally that
those whose incomes are only sufficient
to meet physical wants should not be sub
jected to taxation at al). He lays atresa
on the theory that liquor or tobacco, aa far
aa the laboring man la concerned, cannot
be considered aa needs.
In hla chapter on "Wealth" toe aaya:
"The dire consequences resulting from the
use of liquor would Justify much.higher
taxation upon It In the Interest of the
workerathemselves. . The greatest single
evil In Great Britain today Is Intemperance.
Seven hundred and eighty million dollars
yearly Is the drink bill. When ope asks
himself what wouldmost benefit the
worker, there Is no hesitation In tha reply
to avoid liquor and gambling. The work
Ingman who Indulges In either is, to the
extent he does so, the architect of his
own poverty." ,
Mr. Carnegie does not believe that the
socialistic system harmonises with our
present home and family relations. He
says that It attacks or bellttlea one of the
vlrtuea whloh, aa we believe, lie at the root

of the progress of our race, that of thrift.
He says that most men and women are
born to poverty, and speculates on tha few
who are provided for the free to spend
their lives at eaae. Mr. Carnegie con
tlnues: "Thrift cannot commend Itself to the
true socialist who forbids private capital.
"Apply to th masses of faen any of the
tests that Indicate success or failure in
life, progress or stagnation, valuable or
worthless, citizenship and none will mors
clearly than that of thrift aeparate yi
well-behaved, respected and uaeful from
the unsatisfactory members of society.
"The writer lived hla early yeara among
workmen and hla later yeara as an em
ployer of labor, and It Is Incomprehensible
to him how any Informed men having at
heart the elevation of manual laboring
men, could fail to place upon the habit of
thrift the highest value, second only to
that of lemperanoe, without which no
honorable career Is possible, for against
intemperance no combination of good
qualities can prevail. Temperance and
thrift are virtues which act and react upon
each other, strengthening both and are
seldom found apart."
"My experience wltK railway rates and
rebates," la the laat chapter In Mr. Car
negie's book.
He -dwells at length on the fight of the
steel manufacturers at Pittsburg to force
the Pennsylvania railroad to give them fair
rates. He aaya:
, "These were the days when the much
talked of 'rebatea' had their origin. Gen.
tlemcn'a agreement' ratea were charged
and the bills of lading were fair and square
on the surface, but the understanding with
the shipper was that rebates would be al
lowed and settled Tor at some future time.
"The keener members soon discovered
that evidence might be called for by com
peting'llnes, and the question asked, 'Have
any rebates been paid on this shipment?'
"The party, concerned might be able to
say that he had paid none, but had he
been questioned a month or two afterward,
perhaps, or asked If advantages in other
directions had not been granted to the
ahlpper, he could not have ao atated truth
fully. In ahort, every conceivable way of
keeping the word of promise to the ear and
breaking It to the hope waa indulged In.
"Our Carnegie. Steel company had had
what It thought the certainty of a contract
of great value for material with the New
port Newa Shipbuilding company, freight
ratea from Pittsburg to Newport News
being much less than from Chicago. The
contract, however, went to Chicago, and
upon investigation, we found that the rate
given our Chicago competitor tp Newport
News waa less than the Pennsylvania rail
road rate from Pittsburg, the distance not
one-half eo great. President Ingalls of the
Chesapeake & Ohio, then beginnng his
brilliant career, had made the lower rate

GRAFT IN SMALL THINGS
Wasteful I'se of Bobber Bands aad
Pencils by Government
Clerka.
"There'a one infallible way to tell a gov
ernment clerk," remarked a philosophising
department official in Waahington the other
day. "And how'a that?" we asked. "Why,
lfa this way," he went on. "If a man has
his vest pockets full of rubber bands you
may know he works for Uncle Sam. Rub
ber band are as free aa the air you breathe
In the government departments (and much
freer than some of the air). Requlaitlone
for them by tha ton are aent In to head
quartera and the clerk never atops to think
(even If he knows the fact) that they coat
$1 a pound or more for Uncle Bam, and
not he, hag to foot the bills.
"Why, have you any Idea how many rub
ber bands are used, or rather wasted, by
the government every year? It runs Into
big money, I can assure you, for I am In
a poBlUon where I have Inside Information
about It. The pension office simply eata up
rubber bands faster than a weatern thresh
ing machine geta away with grain. Great
big onca are needed to hokt the papera In
tho thousands of casee together, and they
cost a cent apiece. A cent'a nothing to
worry over, you'll aay, but when the thing
goes on at the rate It does It makes an
Item In the course of the year that would
wreck any private business. I'm not Jok
ing. If the Standard Oil company was run
as wastefully aa the government la, Uncle
John would have to charge ua $1 a gallon
for oil. If the socialists get hold of things
tana l believe they're going to) and they
set tho government to running everything,
h 11 spell bankruptcy for old Unlied States,
You've no idea how careless and extrava
gant people get when they know that It's
going to come out of the government
r.very leuow seems to be bent on seeing
wno can run through with the most. And
the rubber band graft Is the most striking
Illustration of this I know of. I've called
attention to this leak over and over, but
the powers that be alwaya reply that auch
th!ngs as rubber bands are too small pota
toes to sit up nights over. I don't dare
say how much Uncle Sam'a total annual
bill for rubber bands Is, but It's) up In the
millions, Judging frdm my data.
"Then there's the lead pencil graft, too.
Why, President Roosevelt's commission
that he appointed to look Into the depart
mental leaks actually found that the gov
ernment buys enough lead pencils to give
every clerk a new pencil every s'ngle work
ing day of tho year. Now any BenslUe
man knows that thusa clerks can't use up
that many pencils. When a man pays his
own hard-earned money for a pencil he can
keep It for weeks, but when the government
supplies him lfa different.
"The Postoffice department, whhh comes
the closest of any of the departmenU to
being run on a- business basis, years ago
discovered that It couldn't stand for th
promiacuoua uae of rubber banda. So the
poatal clerka have to use common atrlng
to tie up their bundlea of letters. Kx
hauatlve efforta have been made to dis
cover aome method of bunching them that
would be still cheper, for even the stilng
Item accounta for a considerable part of
the poatal deficit. You can t expect great
statesmen to get down to figuring on tluse
little items, for that would be 'cheese
paring,' and so the wate go., merrily on.
Hy the way, here's a dandy pendl-take It
along-new kind th y re furnishing our
offlc-and here's a bunch of rubber bands
-they'll come in handy-anyway the chil
dren can moke some rubber balls out of
them-you're welcome-Uncle Sum foots the
bill, you know. Come bavk when you've
