The following extract is copied
from the report OF sermon delivered
by popular clergyman on Sunday
last:
We have in our land what are
called "trusts" the Wheat Trust,
the Sugar Trust, the Lumber Trust,
the Coal Trust, the Oil Trust and a
host of others. They are becoming
very numerous. They are without
soul or conscience, and nothing can
stand before them; they absorb
everything, They remind me of
the great sea monster called the
devil fish. There is no greater dan
ger threatening the life of our great
nation to-day than this accursed
trust system. There is no good
reason why coal should cost in San
Francisco SIS and $50 per ton when
it can be purchased at the mines
and at Seattle for 81 and 50 per ton.
Coal should never 90 above $40 per
ton in San Francisco markets. Why
is it that it costs twice as much to
build Il frame house in San Fran
cisco as it does in the Eastl The
only answer to this is because of
the Lumber Trust. When up in
Puget Sound q few weeks ago u gen.
teman told me of lumbcr-mll in
that place with large capacity which
was not saving up q single stick of
timber, and gave as the reason that
the proprietors were paid $1,000
per year by Lumber Trust of San
Francisco not TO work their mill
and they had bound themselves tc
take this amount for seven years fol
lying idle! This is highway rob-
berry on large scale, and the mer
who enter into such trusts ought tc
be treated as we treat highway rob
bers. The great political contest Of
the future will be between monopoly
and an outraged public. The trod
den worm will become a serpent.
This extract will strike the reade
as being deserved. These trust
are nothing but schemes to swindl
the public. There can be no mis-
take in asserting that they are tn
greatest outrage which has yet BEEF
attempted in the United States
What is to be done to get rid o
them? In the first place we hav
been too ready to form incorporate,
companies. We have an incorpora
ton for nearly everything. A com
pany is organized and then it
given. the privilege to swindle til
people. No act of incorporate
should be permitted to exist wher
the company engages in combna
tons to control or advance the pric
of any commodity. And then
should be made criminal offens
to engage in schemes against til
public interest, either by companio
or by individuals. Something wi
have to be done very soon to put
stop to all arrangements akin
trusts. - IS. +. Call.

RUFUS CHOATE.

This great American lawyer was
walking along street in Boston,
and came to two men on the street
with five dollar gold piece in hand,
about which there was a difference
of opinion between them, as to its
genuineness, one maintaining that
it was genuine, and the other, that
il was counterfeit; they agreed to
submit the question to Mr.. Choate,
and placed the piece in his hand.
After looking at it carefully, Mr..
Choate said, IL think it is genuine"
put the money in his poI,et and con-
tinued his walk. Whereupon, the
men said: "Hello! Mr.. Choate, we
did not intend to give you the
money! Choate turned to them
and said: "You stopped me and
asked me for my opinion as TO its
genuineness, gave you my opinion,
and for being so stopped and giving
my opinion, | charge five dollars,
and having the five dollars in hand
] appropriated it in payment of the
five dollars due me-"
On another occasion, while Choate
and friend were bathing leisurely
on the sea-shore, his friend asked
him short legal question, which
Choate easily answered in very few
words. Soon after he returned to
his office, he sent that friend bill
for that advice, and made him pay It.

Fourth of july Politics ~

Mr.. James Russell Lowell in his widely
criticised Reform Club address, expressed
some qualification at the fact that Fourth
of July politics." as he was pleased to
term it, was becoming thing of the past.
Mr.. Lowell, during his long residence in
England, was good way off from Fourt h
of July, and perhaps does not think as
much of "Independence day" rs he once
did. But we fancy that true Americans
Will not only not agree with him
that it is Il good thing that Fourth of
July politics" is becoming a thing OF the
past as far as it has actually be come a
matter of history, but will agree with Presi-
dent Simmons OF the New York city Board
of Education, who urged in his inaugural
address more attention to the singing of
patriotic songs in the schools and the re-
citation of passages from the speeches of
our most distinguished patriots. The
old Fourth of July oratory was
not such a bad thing. No man
was ever harmed by having his blood set
tlngllng by it, overuone AS it may often
have been. The youth were made stronger
III devotion to country by witnessing The
enthusiasm of their elders, and not little
useful knowledge OF American political
history has been gained from Fourth Of
July orations. We do no. Ike
to see lessons in patriotism discredited
Parents should instll the national spirit
INTO their children from the cradle. The
school room is an excellent place, too, il
which TO learn patriotism; and whatever
of Fourth Of July politics" the young
mind may elsewhere encounter, will not
come amiss in making its possessor IA good
and true American citizen.
In these days, too, when immigrants are
pouring III upon us in such numbers Am
ercanism is especially needed for the
bene fit of the children of foreign born
citizens as well as for the parents them
selves. AS the proportion of such chill
dren is likely to increase rather than de
crease for many yeats to come, there
should he more instead of less Of the old
fashioned Fourth of July spirit in the
land, although Mr.. Lowell does not like it.
