Armour appears to have bsen a millionaire who made the maximum of money while doing the minimum of harm to others. He was accused of raising the price of meat, but it was found that dnmand exceed ing supply had raised the price. -He gave employment to thousands of men. He made every animal his men killed more useful to the world than ever such animal had been before. He UBed every part of any edible carcass for some, pur pose. He made money by finding out new things the people wanted and sup plying them. He gave the world, on the whole, a better quality of meat food than it had ever had before. And the 'money he made in bo doing he gladly ex pended in charity of an unostentatious sort, no lees than by such actions as the endowment of the Armour Institute. He was not a gambler, but a creator of wealth. His death affected the gamb ling end of finance not at all, because he was not in any way identified with it. He was always on the look out for worthy young men and helped them to realize their opportunities. He was not, bo far as anyone haa discovered, one of the millionaires who made a specialty of corrupting politics. His wealth did him no moral harm. It neither hard ened his heart, nor swelled his head. Against him none of the country's most vociferous irreconcilables has uttered a condemnatory word. It is not claimed, anywhere, that what he possessed ber, longed of right to any one else. He made more than a million without steal ing, a thing we have been told is im possible. Was Mr. Armour an excep tiou to millionaires? It is hardly pos sible. The average American million aire is so by virtue of hard work and brains alone, and the- lawless, wolfish. robbing millionaire is thYexception, not the rule. There are more wolf-millionaires, lately, than there were, but still the average of rich men shows ue men of simple lives, honest intentions, demo cratic spirit and, to a greater or less ex tent, a desire to use their money in some way tb&t will help tbeirfllaws.with'out pauperizing them. It may be said that the system under which millionaires are possible is wrong. Well, tell that to the boy at home and he will laugh to 6Corn the idea. Tell it to anyone who be lieves in progress and he will say that if the world is to be a better world for the masses it can only be through de veloping the qualities of individuals. The man who can win fortune can do 60, generally, only through the exercise of the qualities which are to be the gener al qualities o! individuals. The example of Philip D. Armour is not going to hurt anyone, morally. It will not make anyone less honest, less kind. It will make everyone put forth his best, not altogether for the money to be made, but for the satisfaction that comes of doing something exceedingly well. Put the mark of contentment at a million and, in this country, we should have men stagnating at thirty-five or forty years. Limit wealth ' and you limit ef fort. Every man has a right to make as much money as be can make, as sure ly as he has a right to live as long as he can. If he makes noney-wrongfuHy he will atone for it in some way. If he maka money and if be use it well, he is a benefactor of his kind, and if a man make money in these days it is not well to apply even unto him the saying: "Judge not lest ye be judged." The average millionaire is probably as hon est and as honorable and as gentle and as generous as the average critic of his career. Your altruist is too often the least just or charitable of men. How many of our denunciators of millionaires would refuse to be millionaires, or being such would do as much for their feljowe at men like Armour or Carnegie or Pierpont Morgan?
