Consolidated Wealth.

The Progressive Age says there is n
good deal OF cause TO fear the power OF
associated wealth, and continues:
No intelligent observer can TAIL TO see
that wealth is gradually combining TO
monOpOlize the various branches OF our
industry Not only are great enterprises
which require large smoun, OF capital
consolidated, but nearly all the profitable
branches ct business which have hereto
fore been controlled by individuals are
being seized upon and bought under The
control ol combined capital, There is
scarcely any important branch of manu-
facIurc which is not going into the hands
of companies which exert THEN power To
crush out individuals from business.
The political power which these COM
binations can WELD is very great, and it
is already beginning to be felt. Their
agents swarm in the Congressional lob
bies, and in those of State Legislatures,
and by skilliul management and the out
lay OF money, they are beginning to Sc
cure legislation not compatible with the
public good. What
barrier can be set up to resist this tenden-
CIV OF combined capital it is not easy TO
see

The Accurate Boy.

There was u young man once III The
Office of Western railway superintend-
ent. He was occupying position that
four hundred boys in that city would
have wished to get. 1t was honorable,
and it paid well, besides being i'll the
line of promotion. How did he get it?
Not by having a rich father, Tor he was
the son OF la5orer. The secret was his
beautiful accuracy. He began as an
errand boy, and did his work accurately.
His leisure time he used in perfecting h;i
writing and arithmetic. After awhile he
learned to telegraph. At each step his
employer commended his accuracy, and
relied on what he did because he was
right.
