Farmers and Trusts.

There was II meeting of farmers nj Fair
Haven, Maryland, lately, and strong
sentiment was developed in favor of a
combination of some kind. When farm
ers talk of combining, II may lie believed
that things are going very badly, but
there Is not much chance that AN agri-
cultural trust will ever be formed or even
seriously planned. Farmers are not
built that way. They will struggle along
and hope for better times until they are
smothered under mortgages. The Mary
land farmers are not worse off than those
Of many other states, and even in fertile
and wealthy old Lancaster county the
increasing number Of farm mortgages
suggests that, in spite of Jubilant States
man Lands, the high tariff has not been
working smoothly as magical producer
of wealth and happiness among the
farmers.
But supposing the farmers would com
bine e,--suppose that every trade, busi-
ness and industry, from agriculture to
art culture, could be- organized in trusts
or combinations, and the whole work of
men Were directed 10y executive coun-
ellis and boards of directors The next
thing would be grand universal strike,
shut down or tie up, or else the speedy
creation of a central board To settle diff
ferences. Then every man would be
forced 10 submit to the decree of this
distant and almighty council. Not only
his wages, but the cost of all he bought,
would be fixed without the consent Of
buyer or seller. The natural result of
unchecked combination would lie more
fearful tyranny than Eastern despot
ever dreamed of. But this is fortunately
long way of, even at the present rate
of drifting. Meanwhile let Ills note the
drift Of thought among the farmers.
They are beginning at last To realize that
something is wrong in this model high
tax country. That is gratifying symp-
tom. They must begin to think out
cause and remedy and the effect of
tariff abuses cannot fail to he noted. 1t
is little hard, perhaps, for the farmer
10 realize the importance of a foreign
commerce, but il should not take him
long to see that when our surplus grain,
sold in Europe, has to be paid for in
merchandise that is heavily taxed ON
landing In America, il is not probable
that lac will get high prices for wheat.
When this notion strikes him. the far
mer will get to work with his little bal
lot, and we hope that the bright idea
will take shape before the trusts have
taken command Of the whole earth.

LANCASTER, PA, July, 10, 1889.
The Johnstown Growers.

3 The bad temper of the Johnstown peo-
/ pie seems to he much more general than
We had thought possible. Allowing for
. great deal Of exaggeration in the re-
ports, the conclusion can not be avoided
that many of the miserable survivors of
the food are behaving in very dis
graceful way. They would, no doubt,
he very much shocked at the suggestion
that their conduct shows any lack of
gratitude for the sympathy and assist
ance rendered, and are thoroughly conf
dent that their complaints of the method
Of distribution will meet the approval
Of the contributors. Misery encourages
selfishness. Misfortune seems TO rob
people of the faculty of reasoning in n
disinterested way. The sufferers them
selves are of all people the least capable
of properly regulating the distribution
of relief, because each one of them is
most vividly impressed with the needs
Of his own particular class of victims.
The man who lost thousands ex-
poets larger share than the man
who lost hundreds, forgetting that the
latter lost his all and that no one can
lose more than that. The commission
has very wisely decided that, "a distri-
button by percentage on the amount IS
losses would be manfestly unjust, as 1t
would result in giving the largest sum
to the person having lost the most, with
out regard to the value Of the remaining
estate of such persons y and also that
1.-THE fund must go only to the most
needy sufferers from the flood"
The men who have been so fortunate
as to save enough tomake them indepen-
dent of charity should rejoice that II
larger share is thereby left for their COM
panions in misery who have lost all
and among the latter the food has lev
elled ranks. The fund il charity To
the needy and not general indemnity
for losses, and il must I've remembered
that the cash distribution is only part
Of the relief that has been and will he
given by the feeding and clothing of the
people. The man who lost five thous-
and and receives eighty must remember
that he shared i'm the general measures
for public relief that have so speedily
refitted the site Of Johnstown for
human habitation.
The commission reports that the
COnemaugh valley has already received
relief 10 the amount Of two million two
hundred thousand dollars and, although
there has no doubt been error and waste
In some branches of the work, the sud-
den emergency appears to have been
met with vigor aud good judgment.
The calamity must have drawn many
philanthropic and wholly disinterested
people to the ground, and If there is any
injustice or flagrant abuse of authority
they would very promptly make II pub
lie. The complaints so far published
serve only TO check the general sympa-
thy for all the unfortunates, and there
must be a large number who deeply
regret the thoughtless talk. The COM
mission can afford To listen in silence
with the charitable reflection that the
complainants haye--slltlered 50 deeply
thdttney have, for the time, lost sense
Of the fitness of things.

Ar Fair Haven, Md, recently there was
meeting of Southern Maryland farmers,
who were chiefly concerned with the to-
bacco question. II was stated that tobacco
purchased hero by the French government
for cents pound is sold in France at
Sl.i2 per pound, and the question naturally
suggested was whether the great discrep-
ancy could not be reduced and a larger
price obtained for the producer. No
answer appears to have been found nj the
meeting, but the Port Tobacco Times
suggested the forming of an asso-
citation of tobacco planters, with
the view of storing the entire crop
in the state warehouses and holding it
until reasonable price is obtained.
Planters who could not afford To wait for
the sale of their consignments might be
paid by the association the market price of
their tobacco with money borrowed upon
the tobacco in the warehouses as security.
The Baltimore san notes that the
chief difficulty in the way of such scheme,
and indeed of any cooperative effort on the
part of farmers, is their well-known indis-
position, dae largely Ia the nature of their
occupation, to combine for any purpose.
Perhaps the Wilson essays on trusts,
which we have been reprinting from the
Sun, may have an opposite effect from that
intended aud stimulate their growth in
numbers by revealing their fabulous pro-
fits. Even the farmers may I've tempted.

A GENTLEMAN oi this city, who rccent-
~ saw an article quoted from the " Hos
pital" on the subject; I" Is Leprosy In
fectious?" writesto us as follows: "As re-
CARDS infection or communication of the
disease through the medium of the atmos-
phere, the writer of that article holds that
evidence is against such transmission, but
thinks that Father Damien probably con-
tracted the disease by accidental contact of
leprous poison with an abraided skin,
but we do not believe that it Is commune
Gated through the atmosphere as a medium
in the same manner In which influenza,
measles or scarlet fever may 6c dissent
mated. That il in hereditary, there can he
no doubt, and during residence of more
than twelve years in the West Indies we
have had occasion to note this fact,
for We never heard of single
case that was not hereditary and
strange to say, it always skips gener-
alton. We have known various cases of
children showing the first symptom of the
disease at about or 10 years of age, and
which from that time rapidly developed.
Making inquiry and examining the estate
records we always found that the grand
parents or one of them had been afflicted
with the disease. We have come in con-
tact.with lepers frequently, and could not
help doing NO, In mnistcring to them, but
we never gave IL a thought. and had no
idea of having IL communicated. We have
known missionaries who have lived among
them for years. and never felt any appre-
hension, and did not take the disease"

have peace in the Soudan they must
deal crushing blow that will long be
remembered rs an evidence of their
power. Remember Hicks and Gordon
is phrase that reminds us that the
Arabs like other men prefer 10 forget
defeats. They look upon what the
English call Wolseley's splendid
campaign as an invasion well
repulsed. They do not care whether
the English could have marched
on after the fall of Khartoum
and conqurcd the Mahdi. II IL enough
for their pride that the English columns
rctreated, and rs General Grenfell re-
ports that these dervishcs are well fel
and In good condition In spite Of their
recent suffering by thirst II is quite
probable that they will continue to fight
as desperately as the followers Of the
Mahdi. There is something magnificent
about the ignorance of these Eastern
fanatics and their leaders. Here IL
poor little Nad-el-Jumi, with his
few thousand Arabs, starting out
to conquer the world with the
sublime declaration that a superior
force is nothing to him. Christians talk
about mountain moving faith, but east
ern fanatics make a lavish display Of 1t,
and though generation after generation
suffers in consequence, the crop of reck-
less fanatics is always ready TO follow
the prophet Of the day to death, If not
TO victory. II is pity that FL
Jumi cannot be persuaded to accept
n Raymond excursion ticket, ard
travel little over the world
that he has started out to conquer. lie
might be trfle discouraged by an
autumn review of the German and
French armies, or even by a few. days
walk among the tceming millions Of
London. He would, perhaps, conclude
to let than TEEN, and would find his con-
quering mission limited to the part Of
the Nile that none but Arabs care for.
