Professor Simon N. Patten of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania not long ago contributed to a trade journal an essay on the economic effects of combinations. "Under our pres- ent economic conditions" says the professor, unrestricted competition is an evil, because it destroys the stability of price," He then undertakes to show that stable prices can be Secured only by some understanding or com- bination. "The vital question:" he says, lis, are unstable prices to be preferred to combinations9" If by combination prices are made higher "the benefits of the higher rate of profits are distributed more largely among the people," and the average citizen suffers no loss. ''The whole community" is bene- fited 'by the increased stability of prices and the resulting steadiness of employ ment."
 This is smooth and plausible argument for trusts, but recent event shows that it may not be very sound. When the great copper syndicate began operations it pro- fessed that it's design was to cause stability of prices for the benefit of everybody inter- ested in the several branches of the copper industry-miners, manufacturers, consumers and traders. It declared that the prevailing
 price was too low. It undertook to control
 the entire product of copper for term of
 years by contracts. It raised the price near-
 ly 70 per cent. It held it up for awhile, and
 then it had to burst and spread ruin. Con cerning some of the effects of the disaster tine New York Times says: And now the surplus copper accumulated by tine ring hangs over the market and until it shall be consumed the mining industry must be de- pressed. The price will in all probability fall in some countries below that which was | paid before the syndicate began it's unlawful ! work. Some mines, in which the cost oi production is exceptionally high, will be | rlnsad IohnrAra will be thrown out of em. ployment. Capital that has been invested \ in new mines because ot the inducemen | offered by the high ring price may yield n' | return for some years. Great disturbance il | financial circles, great loss and considerable | suffering have been caused by this interfer ence with the natural laws that should gov | ern the production and sale of so useful | metal.
 It remains to be seen whether or not, many perhaps most of the trusts, will finally nee 1 the fate of the copper trust. It is hard fo | even trust to fight natural laws.

 Dr, Kayser has succeeded in obtaining a
 photograph of the aurora borealis from the summit of Mount Rigi, in Switzerland. This
 is an interesting fact, it having hitherto been
 rigarded as impo ssible to photograph the au-
 rora for want of plate sufficiently sensitive to
 be impressed by its rays. Gunther, in his
 well known physical geography, declares it to
 be utterly impossible to photograph the auro-
 "a, the most carefully prepared plate remain

 Dr. Kayser resorted to special precautions
 and employed a colored dry plate.
 Science says that in an experimental ob-
 servation of thirty-eight boys of all classes of society, and of average health, who had been using tobacco for periods ranging from two months to two years, twenty-seven showed severe injury to the constitution, and insufficient growth; thirty-two showed the existence of irregularities of the hearts action, disordered stomach, cough, and 8 craving for alcohol; thirteen had 1nterm1t- teucy of the pulse, and one had consumption. After they abandoned the use of tobacco, within six months one-half were free from all their former symptoms. and the remain der had recovered by the end of the year.

We have received from Hon John
A. Anderson. NJ. @. from the 5th Kan
sas district, the report Of the congress
sional committee, sent to investigate
the doings of those who are engaged
in the cheerful task of crushing the
life out of men, women and children
IN the interest of the Anthracite Coal
Trust.
It is a frIghtfuI arraignment. We
cannot at this time comment upon It,
but here insert what the New York
Herald has to say of it.
The rich men who brought on the
horrors Of the great strike In the an
thracite coal regions of Pennsylvania
last winter must have hearts of stone
if they can read the report of the
Tllman congressional committee and
be unmoved, Every citizen in the
country should read this burning
word picture of the enmillioned mon
ster that feeds on human suffering,
driving half naked men, women and
children out in the snow tc perish
and planting its feet upon the bread
trays and hearthstones of $4,000
homes, simply that the price of coal
may rise to the misery of other help
less thousands in the great cities.
This system should be blasted It Is
a breeder of anarchy. 1t makes men
go hungry IN a land of plenty. It is
the oppressor of the poor and the
enemy of republican institutions, To
merely pirate of the duty of the citi-
zen to respect the law in the presence
of legally organized brigandage is a
mockery Of wrongs that cry out for
justice. The fact that $4,000 starving
miners remained on a strike for
months in bitter winter weather with
out resorting to Iawlessness in the
face of the heartless tyranny revealed
in this congressional report is proof
enough of their patience and long
suffering.'

The little six year old son of Al
bert Farmer, a great favorite with the
parents, met with a most horrible
death last week. Mrs. Farmer had
come in from the yard, and taken
boiler of boiling water from the stove,
set it on the floor and put in some
concentrated 1ye for washing our
poses. The little one was at the
churn and Mrs. Farmer went to it
and took the dasher from him, when
he walked backward until striking
the boiler he went over into the boil
ing lye. Mrs. Farmer grappled him
as he toppled over and ierked him
out, kut not before his whole back
had been saturated. She tore the
clothing from the little fellow and
did all she could to help him until
DR.. BrunsOn reached the house, which
is some five or six miles into the coun-
try. The Doctor did all IN his power
and the little fellow suffered the most
excruciating pain until Sunday night
when death kindly relieved him of
his suferings, The Doctor says that
over two hundred square inches of
skin was scaIded completely from his
back and sides, and that the burning
was too deep in the locality of his
kidneys for the little boy to survive.
He was buried on Monday, a large
and sympathizing concourse Of friends
attending the last sad rites. The
bereaved father and mother have the
heartfelt sympathy Of the entire
neighborhood, and the deepest sor-
row is felt at the little ones sad
death.-AIasenG PIaindeGJer.
