A DROP OF INK.

drop Of ink how much n holds.
Upon my pen point newly wet:
A brilliant fancy It enfolds
Perhaps. If could only get
II rightly spread upon the sheet
OF paper. Spotlcss, free from stain
Alas gaze out in the street
And chew my pen holder In vain.
Maybe within that inky drop
poem lies, designed for fame;
But can't reach Parnassus' top
Because, you see,tny feet are lame.
An epigram il may contain
Replctc with wisdom and with wit.
I'm sure il would not make me vain
II Fate would let me make hi;
Bat while I'm specializing here,
The ink will dry upon my pen
I'll cast aside all doubt and fear,
Maybe my Fate will help Inc then.
All men of genius, suppose,
Dash down their burning thoughts red hot
III do the same myself-Iiere goesl-
BY Jove I've only made blot

IT is very evident that the "Christian
at Work" does not believe in trusts from
the following which appeared in late
issue: The real character of these COM
binations of capital should be set forth
in their true light, in order that the
moral sense of mankind may be awak-
ened to the enormity of the evil. 1t is
in vain to expect industrial peace in this
country so long as our men of wealth
and influence are found entering into
these organizations which set themselves
beyond the restraints of law, and in de-
tiance of the commonest principles Of
Justice and equity.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1888-02-24

THE lever of a grip-car on the cable
road at Kansas City broke on February
9th just as the grip and attached coach
passed over the edge of the hill. The
cars few down the incline at a terrible
rate of speed, and struck another train
standing at the bottom, almost totally
demolishing the cars. The pas.
sengers in the last train saw the cars
coming and got out of the way. An en-
ploye of the road, was not so fortunate,
and was fatally crushed between the
bumpers of the train. The gripman on
the runaway car had an arm broken,
and the eight passengers were badly
shaken up and bruised, although their
injuries are not very serious. 1t is re-
garded as miraculous that more were not
killed

any depredating upon the rights OF other
people they can undoubtedly be brought
within restraints and the requirements
of ordinary corporations, not only with
out any extra constitutional legislation,
but, also, without the adoption, under
the demagogic hue and cry, of policy
which must necessarily have the effect
of restraining the investment and the
diffusion of capital in the larger opera
tons of commercial business. In clos
ing, the editorial calls attention to the
recent warning of Judge Sabin of San
Francisco, in which he says:
eff the power of unlimited inquisl-
iorial investigation into the affairs OF
private corporations, or companies, or
Northumberland it concerns all alike
shall be once established, who can say
where it will end, or what will be the
limit of injustice at all times, but more
especially when called into exercise IN
times of political excitement or under
the influence of partisan zeal or pas
sion?"
The Tammany Hall bill to suppress
trusts and monopolies and promote free
competition in trade was introduced in
the New York Senate February I'd. 1t
prohibits in every possible form the Gre
alton or maintenance of any trust or
combination by which the prices for
commodities entering into consumption
shall be fixed, regulated or controlled.
1t prohibits also any agreement as to
the price to be charged for any COM
modify, or any agreement not to sell
below certain standard of value. The
penalties provided for violation are a
fine of $4,000, or imprisonment not ex-
ceeding two years, or both for individ-
uals and officers, or agents of corpora
ton, forfeiture of corporation rights and
franchises for New York corporations,
and prohibition from doing business in
the State for corporations organized else
where. The closing paragraph of the
bill says: Nothing herein contained
shall prevent any assemblies or associa-
tions of laboring men from adopting
such regulations as they may think
proper in reference to wages and the
compensation of labor"

THE Germans are rapidly developing
a system of evening continuation classes
which carry an education for two or
three years longer. In Saxony the boys
who leave the primary school, if they do
not go the higher schools, must attend
