Pooling Practices.

From the Kansas City Journal
There is an old adage that "competl-
ton is the life of trade;" may not the
converse of this saying be true, that the
want Of competition is the death Of hade?
Since the railroad magnates have learned
to successfully destroy competition In the
carrying business by a close system OF
pooling we are threatened with an inun-
dation Of the application Of the same
principle. The various manufacturers
whose business it is to furnish articles of
necessity, comfort, and luxury for the peo
pie at large are not slow to discover the
vast advantages to be gained by pooling
their business and controlling production
below the bounds of surplus, by which
means they are enabled to control prices.
For example, the nail manufacturers hav.
ing formed close corporation, taking in
all the manufactures Of the country, have
within the past year advanced prices fully
one hundred per cent, They were enabled
to do this from the fact that largely in
creased demand sprang up at time when
there was little or no surplus in the coun-
try. Now that the demand is being fully
met and prices should naturally decline
to a normal standard, the combination
propose to curtail the manufacture by run
ming their works on short time and thus
hold prices up. At present prices the
profits to the pool are so great that they
can afford to buy up any competition that
may be started. The manufacturers Of
white paper and many other articles are
making similar combinations to regulate
production and control prices.
Pooling is not, however, being confined
to railroads and manufactures. An at
tempt has bsen made to control the price
of breadstuffs by similar process. A
number of New York moneyed men made
up pot of money consisting Of several
million dollars, and bought up large
portion of last seasons wheat crop,
enough of it to manipulate the markets
and control prices. Soon after the pur-
chaseS were made values went up 30 TO 40
per cent. The producer got no benefit
from this rise, as the grain was out of his
hands, s,Ewhilc the consumer is obliged to
pay tribute to the money power that has
stepped between him and the farmer and
laid this immense levy upon his daily
loaf. While congress is discussing the
question OF regulating railroad pools,
they should also include these other forms
of pooling that are equally, if not more
oppressive, to the people than the railroad
combination.

From the Saturday Review.
In what way could the beauty of arlsto
cratic manner and department be so aptly
illustrated as in the person Of well-cdu.
Gated butlerp A member of the aristoc'
racy desiring to elevate his species might
seek in vain among his own personal
friends for single example Of faultless
bearing; and yet among the servants Of
his friends he could scarcely go astray.
Indeed the butler and the footman togeth-
er may be taken at their best as a COM
plete epitome of the mingled condescen-
sion and stateliness of English society. In
the pushed and powdered beauty of the
one is enshrined perfect image of the
outward magm6cence beftting power
lul people, while the grave simplicity Of
the other would seem to be rather design.
ed to reflect the spiritual qualities of his
masters greatness. To pass at once and
without some intervening agent from the
footman to the host would be too severe a
trial of faith even to the most devout. No
man, however elevated his position, could
hope to hear the test of direct competition
with the stately creatures who stand at
his doors; and by the cunning economy
of our domestic life it has, therefore, been
wisely ordained that the butler should be
employed to break the suddenness of the
fall and reconcile the mind by gradual
decline of splendor. Although he is dress
ed with all the simplicity Of his master, he
is nevertheless endowed with lofty dig
nifty of bearing which his master cannot
rival, and yet at the same time he extends
to all visitors Of the house a measure Of
tolerant indulgence which, Immediately
following the unconcealed contempt Of
the footman, partly prepares them for the
warmer greetings Of their host. II has al
ways been matter of surprise to Us that
creation, SO sparing in the production Of
other forms OF greatness, should have
multiplied tke race Of buffers with such a
lavish hand.

"THE GIRL IN GRAY"

We were crossing Hampton's ferry when the
sporting breeze blew high,
And it fluttercd in our proud sails with q
storm-contendiug sigh;
Bright the village lights of Creston CLEANED
abaft us from the shore,
And my heart was beating measures it had
never felt before.
Fast the purple twilight deepened, and l
watched the moon so dim,
Peeping out through broken patches of the
clouds so black and grim;
And my thoughts keep turning backward to
that village by the sea,
Glowing with an effervescence sweet and pleas
ant, glad and free.
And l leaned upon the railing, looking down
into the wave, 81
Where drowning moon was striving to de-
fraud river grave,
With the waters plunging wildly in their
boisterous mad-cap play.
"'Tis picture, grand, exquisite" said dark
eyed girl in gray.
face was hid from view
In the silent hush of darkness, but her voice
was kind and true;
And her laugh was like the music of the waves
upon the shore,
While my heart was beating measures it had
never felt before.
Then We talked of modern artists and the
works of ancient time,
Till our thoughts ran in together like the
music of q rhyme;
Twas poem yet unwritten for the hearts
which throbbed so gay,
Crossing over Hampton's ferry with that
dark.eyed girl in gray,
The enraptured fascination, teeth of pure and
shining pearls
What l did won't bear repeating no! not for
thousand worlds;
Till the red lights from tho cabin flashed up
to our hiding place;
And l held my sister Polly in close and fond
embrace.
"0h! you naughty boy" she whispered, laugh
ing, till her dimplGd cheek
Flushed with color like the rosel, but, sur
prised could not speak;
When, with such merry twinkle, breaking
the seraphic SPELL
Came another peal Of laughter, Ned, don't
neyer, never tell"
Such familiar games," muttered, feeling
Just trihe cowed.
With my brilliant situation, never ought to
be allowed"
Then che aswered with sly wink and sweet,
confding pat,
"Ned! what patent institution taught you how
tohug like that?"

SONNET.

The rain falls softly on the window caves
And whispers lowly to the rustling grass,
And loads the winds dusk pinions as they
pass
To shake the glittefing moisture on the leaves
The rain sweeps where the great sea swells and
heaves,
And dimples all the locked lakes living glass
The rain sob3 round the hcmc whose light sh,
was,
As with the hearts left desolate it grieves.
And listened to its murmur all alone,
| set its cadence to my yearning sorrow,
And loves mute longing for the Darling
gone,
From Natures wall seems strength renewed
to borrow,
Till | can hear the dull plash on the clay,
OF that dear new-made grave, broad leagues
away.

Kansas Prosperity.

From the X. g. Journal.
The prospects are good for an unprcce-
dented immigration into Kansas this
splipg, The tide has already set in and
the stream Of newcomers, the bulk Of
whom pass through Kansas City, was
never before as large this early in the sea-
son as now. The Leavenworth Times Of
the 10Th published reports from the differ
ent cousties of the state on the prospects
Of spring immigration, all Of which with
out exception state that heavy arrivals are
looked for. The state is full of people
looking for homes; men of means and
muscle are the ones that come now. Kan
sas has been thoroughly tested, and farm
ing is no longer an experiment in the
eastern and central portions of the state,
Only the plains Of the western portion
remain to be tried, and each year settle
ments are pushing further out. Cove
county, still unorganized, reports heavy
immigration and 5000 acres of winter
wheat in good condition. The paper re.
fered to above says: "a general feeling
Of hopefulness seems to pervade all classes
in every part of Kansas, and there is
everywhere feeling that the state is just
entering upon one of the most prosperous
years in her history, Another grand crop,
such as present appearances give us every
reason to anticipate, together with the
unusually large accessions to the popula.
tion, composed in the main of intelligent
and industrious people, who bring money
enough with them to settle themselves in
comfortable homes, will be regarded as
sufficient to justify the hopes of our people
that the year Of 1880 will be one Of unex'
ampled prosperity 10 Kansas"

A Criminal Betraying HlmaoIf


CHICAGO, July 27.-Two criminal
mysteries OF Chicago were cleared up
by the arrest to-day Of Frank Jordan,
at Joliet Penitentisry, where he went
to visit prisoner, named on the roll
as Mary Hill. Last Winter this woman
was arrested and conv icted Of shoplift
ing from Field, Letter 4 Co.'s store,
but refused to give her real name, pro-
Tossing to be of wealthy and honor
able family which would be disgraced
by her action.
She gave the name OF Mary Hill, but
all attempts to discover her real name
or who she was proved futile. Only
one visit was made to her, and that by
man claiming to be her brother, who
said the name of Hill would suit him
too. When taken to Joliet under sen.
tence for three years, her single visitor
was described to the prison authorities,
who thought they recognized in him
Frank Jordan, the opal" of "Mike"
Weaver, who was convicted two years
ago OF numerous burglaries and een-
fenced to Is years.
Jordan at the same time was indicted
for nine different burglaries, some Of
the articles from each being found in
his apartments, although he himself
had entirely eluded detection. To-day
he called to see Mary Hill and was in.
stantly identified. His arrest led to the
Identification of the woman as his wife,

thieves as Chicago has ever known.
