CHEAP RREAD.

The English manufacturer holds his
own against the world, and commands
the worlds markets against the United
States; but the Eglish land mOnOpOlist
cannot compete with the American
farmer. Our grain forces down the
price of his, and he cannot maintain his
corner Oh the home market" In con-
sequence of the fact that the English
people are no longer taxed on their food
for the benefit of the dukes, earls, bar
OnS, baronets and squireS who mOnOpo-
lie the land of England and Ireland,
rents have declined; and, while great
many honest English and Irish farmers
are thus made more comfortable, num-
bers of the ariStOcratic land mOnopO-
lists have been forced to go into trade
ana find some way of making an hon
est living. The attentive reader
of English papers is frequent
ly reminded of the benefits of
cheap bread for the people by the refer
enceS to Lady BLANKS millinery shop,
or Lord CHUNILEY'S brewery. Accord
ing to the latest reports, Lady BLANK
is amasSing fortune in her millinery
business, and the Lord CKUAMEY's
small beer is achieving a wide reputa-
ton. Thus, the repeal of the corn laws
and the consequent cheap bread and
low rents diversified the industries of
the aristocracy in England, just as a re-
duced tariff would do for America. The
plebeianS who could not afford to wear
neat bonnets in the days of the corn
laws now save enough in buying
American breadStuffS to be able to pat
ronize Lady BLANK: Lady BLANKS
tenants are happy over lower rents, and
Lady BLANK herself is prospecting be-
cause she sells hundreds of bOnnets
she never could have sold when
bread was so high that plebeians
had to put all they made in food. But
with natural peryersity Lady BLANK
objects to selling bOnnets, as Lord
CHUMLEY does to selling small beer.
They wish to live off their rents. and
they cannot do it if their land monopoly
is subjected to the competition of hun
dredS OF millions of acres of wheat
growing land in America.
So it is with the American mOnopolist.
He lives off of the tax he levies on
clothing, iron. sugar and salt; and as
the farmer, the mechanic and the
laborer pay high for these things, the
monOpolist's income is enormous. But if
the tariff were lessened, if his monopoly
were taken off, this beneficiary of the
tariff would be compelled to work. as
Lady BLANK and Lord CHUMLEY do.
The parallel could be carried out in
definitely.

MEN OF NOTE.

DR.. Freyer has received from the nawab of
Ranipur lakh of rupees for his successful
treatment of the Indian potentates rheumat-
ic fever. This is said 10 be the largest fee
ever received by a medicine man.
Representative S. 5. Cox celebrates his
sixty-fourth birthday to-day. He is the live
liest and most youthful man of his years in
the country, and he is able to perform more
work than when he first entered congress.
One of the most romantic features of the
campaign will be Levi P. Morton's visit next
month to Middleboro', Mass, the home of
his ancestors. That Mr.. Morton considers
this an important episode is proved by the
fact that he has promised to make a speech
upon that occasion. Mr.. Morton's speeches
are like angels visits-fe W and far between
Gen. William b. Franklin, commissioners
general of the United States to the Paris ex-
position of 1889, is visiting the Centennial
exposition at Cincinnati, o. He is paying
especial attention to the government exhibit
there. The Commercial Gazette of that city
publishes what purports to be picture of
him that looks as much like him as President
Cleveland does like candidate Harrison.
Harlow Curtis, of Harwinton, Conn.,, is in
his eighty-ninth year. He has carried on his
farm himself this season, raising forty BUSH
els of potatoes and cutting five acres of grass
by hand. He recently shot running fox at
off-hand aim. In Bristol, Conn.,, week ago
yesterday, he entered a rife range and scored
81 points out of 100. He made three consec-
utive bull s-eyes. He can read a newspaper
without glasses and is altogether one of the
youngest men in the country for his years.

AROUND THE CIRCLE.

In swinging round the circle of his
few Western appointments, Mr.. BLAINE
reached Grand Rapids, Mich, yesterday.
and proceeded to deliver himself OF
very remarkable speech, which is print
ed in the GLOBE this morning. 1tseems
that Postmaster General DICKINSON
said, the other day, that the tariff was
principally maintained at the expense
of the West for the benefit of the East,
and that New England was its largest
beneficiary. This home truth was so
severe, and withal Sc perfectly Just, that
it has put Mr.. BIAISE in an ccstacy of
indignant eXpostulatiOn. And he pro-
ceeds to prove by statistics Tat New
England buys every year large amount
of Western produce, including bread
stuffS, lumber, meat and wool. Admit
ting that all this is true, it does
not relieve the force of Mr.. DICK
INSoN'S charge in the slightest de-
gree. On the contrary, it shows that,
fattening upon the tribute paid her
manufacturers by Western farmers and
workingmen for clothing, agricultural
implements and mechanics tools, she
can afford to spend 1.-THE of this gigan-
tic robbery upon the people whom 1t
lmpOyerisheS by tariff eXaction. And
if New England bought from the West
ten times the amount it does, the fact
would be no excuse for revenue policy
which maintains New England in
wealth and luxury while it impOver-
iShes the West. Mr.. BLAINE remarked
incidentally that New England bought
largely of Minnesota lumber. True;
and it is equally true that it is also the
holder of ali the mortgages which cover
Minnesota farms. These mortgages
represent the annual tax which the
tariff levies upon the farmer and the
wOrkingman for the benefit of New
England manufacturers. The money
goes East in the shape of tax eXtortlons.
1t comes back as a loan, accompanied
by a mortgage which weighs upon the
neck of the farmer like a milestone.
With this mortgage to carry, and tariff
taxes to pay, which are gradually trans
muted into new mortgages and new in
debtedness, the shadows of a hopeless
life deepen year by year around the
struggling tariff bond slave of the West.
Mr.. BLAINE can afford to cajOle the
people of Michigan, if by that COM
placency he can win their consent to
prOlong their serfdOm to the tariff pill
layers.

TRISTS.

Rhodes Journal of Banking begins
its leader on trusts as follows: The
growth of trusts in the last five years
has attracted much attention. These
manifestations of business enterprise
are the result of desire TO overcome
the injurious effects of competition" A
newspaper writer who can express him
self in these terms (and the sample
quoted is in line with the whole writ
ing has mistaken his calling, unless he
has voluntarily sold himself TO monop-
oily to deceive the ignorant. To call
competition in trade injurious is an ex-
posture Of utter ignorance, or worse. For
competition is the only condition in
which trade can possibly exercise
itself in any of its functions BEAUTIFULLY
to itself or benefcialiy to the public;
and whatsoever monopoly effort seeks
to thwart it in such exercise is public
enemy. Competition is as essential to
commercial economics as the law of
gravitation to the harmony and conserv-
atism of the physical elements of the
universe, and the law should crush any
and all combinations that seek to resist
OF hamper it.

THEY Do DIFFER,

There is something ludicrous in ex-
Speaker GIBBS statement to the GLOBE
that there is really no difference be-
tween the Republican and Democratic
parties on the tariff question. If they
are agreed we would like to ask Farmer
GIBBS what all this hubbub is about?
If the two parties are of the same mind
on the tariff issue, why didn't the Chi
cage convention adopt the st. Louis
platform instead of denouncing it?
1t is clearly evident that Mr.. GIBBS
either hasn't read the two platforms, or
he has mistaken the people of Mime
sofa for set of boobies.
The two parties do differ on the tariff
question-just as different as day and
highland even a partisan of Mr..
GIBBS ability can not obscure the fact.

Germans of the City Banquet
Henry Willard.

An elegant banquet was given last
night in honor of Henry Willard at the
Merchants hotel by the leading Ger
mans of the city. The initiatory steps
in the move to honor the great railway
magnate were not taken until few
hours before the guests were seated at
the table, but from the elegance OF the
spread, the number of the guests
present, and the SmoOthneSS with which
the whole affair passed off, great credit
is due the managing committee as well
as the people of the hotel. At the head
of the table sat the guest in whose

TO BUST A TRUST.
An Action Begun to Forfeit the
Charter of the Sugar Mono

An Action Begun to Forfeit the
Charter of the Sugar Mono
poly.
New YORK, Oct. S.-Judge O'Brien
to-day granted permission to States At
torney Gen. Charles F. Tabor to bring
an action againat the Havemeyer IL
Elder Sugar Refining company to annul
its charter. This company, with thirteen
others, is member of the sugar trust.
The attorney general has appointed
Gen. Roger A. Prier as counsel to repre-
sent him in this matter. Edmund III.
Senterne makes the principal affidavit
in the case. He reciteS that the
sugar trust was formed in August,
1887, for the purpose of arbi-
trarily controlling the manufacture
and sale of sugar increasing its price
and controlling the management of all
refineries. In October last the trust
deed was executed. ~Havemeyer's re-
finery under the trust passed under the
control of the trustees of the
combination. The affidavit states
that the combination has sus-
pended and closed several refineries
connected with the trust, and has
thrown out of employment and reduced
to want large MEMBER OF WOrklnSmen.
The combination, it is alleged, is an
illegal monopoly and criminal con-
spiracy under the laws of the state of
New York, and is oppressive to us peo-
pie and detrimental to the welfare of
the state of New York and of the
United States. BY becoming
party to this combination it is alleged
that the defendants have violated the
law, transcribed its powers, forfeited
it's charter and become liable to be dis
solved. The object of the suit is to
annul the corporate existence of the
company and to vacate its charter upon
the ground that it has violated the act
under which it was incorporated and
has exercised privileges and franchises
not conferred upon 1T by law.

There is the whole Democratic plat

tanned, and his arguments were all

largest ever held here, and the strict
