Trusts.

The New York World makes the
following timely comments, which
merchant in Sunbury hands us, and
from which we clip extracts:
1T is not an easy matter to learn
what profits are made by trusts. All
that the public knows is that the
men connected with this modern
product of business life have be-
come enormously rich, and that
trusts have gone on and multiplied
until they have become power, the
extent of which can hardly be esti-
mated. The parent of all trusts
the Standard Oil-frst took the po-
sition that it was purely a private
affair. and other trusts have follow
ed the example of secresy thus set
them.

THE MANIA FOR GREATNESS.

The desire to get everything as cheap as possible is characteristic of many of our countrymen. It is certainly wrong to be extravagant, and it is necessary to use due diligence to avoid being cheated. But to spend valuable time higgling over pen ny, and to become biased in favor of an article merely by the element of cheap ness, is evidence of great weakness. Not the poor only, but many rich people have fallen into this error. We hear an unreas- oning demand for cheap teachers, cheap preachers, cheap newspapers, and cheap books from many quarters.
 To use due diligence to procure needful supplies at fair price is a duty; but to forget that beyond certain limit cheap ness is to be discarded is not wise. The inconsistent spectacle is often witnessed of mon, who demand fair prices for their own wares, seeking to procure what they need from others at ruinously low figures. The man who is loud in his demand for fair wages for an honest days work is often seen passing by the honest tailor who sells clothing at fair price, and purchas- ing of the cheap tradesman who has come into the country to undersell regular busi- ness men.
 There are three ways in which one may undersell those who carry on an honest business. He may sell so low that he can- not live, wind up his establishment, and leave his creditors to carry his losses. This is dishonest. He may gaise oppress the toilers in his factory by giving them starva- tion wages in order that he may sell at unreasonably low prices. This is worse than dishonest. There is third way. He may palm off inferior articles on his cus- toners and persuade them that they are genuine. This is the most common meth cd. Such enterprises ought not to be pa- tronized by honest men. He is public benefactor who conducts an honest trade and considers integrity more valuable than wealth and he is wise who cheerfully pays the full value of every purchase, knowing that manhood is worth more than money. |-CHristiaaa AdUoc0te. ..
