Ropbing the People.

Some of the millionaires of the country
think that trusts are very good things fol
the people. They really mean that they
are very good things for the people who
have stock in them. A few weeks ago an
article was published in the Political Science
Quarterly, which was a defense of trusts.
The burden of its argument was that trusts
cheapened articles needed by the masses.
and the Standard Oil Company was pointed
out as having made Kerosene a great deal
cheaper than it would have been had not
that company the monopoly of the coal oil
business
But what have the apologists for trusts to
say about the sugar trust. The price of
sugar has been advanced about cents a
pound since last January. Two years ago
refined sugar sold, on an average, at about
cents pound less than it is selling at now
The other day in the New York Stock
Exchange sugar certificates sold for $126,
and it is freely predicted that they will sell
at $40 within month or two. When the
sugar trust was formed and the certificates
were put upon the market, they were sold
at S65, their par value being 500.
What has caused this extraordinary ad-
vance in sugar certificates? The trust is, of
course, robbing the people, and it is there
fore able to pay enor nous dividends 1t is
said that the managers of the trust talk
about paying al annual dividend of 25 per
cent.
Is it not an outrage that thepeople should
be robbed in this waya Nobody would
complain at a fair profit, but to put the
price of one of the necessaries of life SO
high as to virtually deprive many poor
families of it am cunts to a crime.
A court in New Orleans declared the
other day that the cotton seed oil trust
could not do business in that state, and a
New York court some time ago decided the
sugar trust to be an unlawful institution,
but both these trusts continue to do bust
ness. Win republican congress attempt
to release the people from the grasp of
trusts" 1t is to be feared that it will not
The republicans are the friends of trusts
and monopolies.

Some time ago young school mistress
out in Dakota grieved her parents by mar
rying an Indian named Chaska Mr.. and
Mrs. Chaska were engaged by a dime
museum man, and they made good deal
of money. The other day Thomas Nc
Laughlin, of West Superior, Wis, married
an Indian maiden. He had been engaged
to her some time. but few weeks ago he
announced that the engagement was 'off,
as his parents were very much opposed to
the marriage. In making this announce
ment he was playing 'possum," so to speak,
for the preparations for the marriage went
right on at the maiden's home, and now Mr..
Mclaughlin knows what it is to have a
squaw to look after. He is said to be an
industrious and a respectable young man.

Ed Reed, the son of the late Belle Starr,
was captured in Fort Smith, Ark, the
other day. Reed is notorious character,
and he is wanted for having committed
several murders and for having stolen
many horses. He boasted that he would
never be taken alive. He rode deiantly
into Fort Smith the other day to sell some
horses he had stolen, and while he was in a
stall of livery stable he was arrested.
His father, mother, brother and two sis
tiers died violent deaths in the Indian ter
ritory, and the family has long been known
as one of criminals. If Reed is convicted
and sentenced to be hanged, it is not proba-
bic that there win be a petition for his par
don.

The Manure Question.

A correspondent of the Germantown
Telegraph gives his way of making and
spreading manure rs follows:
My horse and COW stables have double
doors and the space behind the animals
is wide enough to admit of a cart to take
out the manure. / prefer not to clean
out the stables oftener than twice Il
week, but if the COW manure is very soft
/ clean them out every day, or every
second day, according to the circum
stance of having an abundance or
scarcity of litter. After the manure Is
put in the cart, if there should be any
urine i'll the channel behind the cows,
it is carefully baled out and poured on
top of the load of manure, and by the
time it reaches the field the liquid is
trickling on the ground, but not much
is lost The dripping manure Is then
drawn out of the tail end of the cart and
deposited in some half dozen heaps
with a dung drag, and Immediately
spread. The land thus receives all the
virtue that is in the manure, which
sinks down in the ground, and none of
the gaseous matter escapes up III the
clouds. After the essence OF the ma
nure has all sunk i'll the ground, the
straw remains on the surface as a mulch
which is an effective agency to improve
land. by this method of manuring / get
my corn ground covered during the fall
and winter, thus avoid having the
lcached carcass from the barnyard satu-
rated with water, and dragged out
through the mud i'll the spring at a busy
time. While manuring my field in win

straight line, and put up guide poles ut
each end Of the line so that If snow
falls | viii know where to spread the
manure. | find by experience that ma
nure and snow when in partnership
make a strong fertlizing firm, which
when dissolved by the sun shows quite
as good a result III the following crod
as any other mode of applying manure.
For moro than thirty years / have
tied my COWS III the stable every night
in summer just the same as in winter,
without any detriment to a single ami
NAL. My object in doing this is two
fold. First, l make an extra quantity of
manure: second. my cattle are in q safe
place, which relieves me from care and
anxiety, consequently / can sleep
soundly. During the winter my horned
stock have only a couple of hours each
day out in the yard-just long enough
to eat their mess Of corn stalks and get
n drink. Cows when used to being
stabbed dislike to stay long out in the
cold, and eyince great alacrIty to get
indoors where it IS warm and comfort
able. Ny procedure in manipulating
manure by handling it only once and
placing it where none of its virtues can
be lost, l think is much better than the
old fashioned way with the wheel-bar
row, taking the manure in the barnyard
to lay in the drenching rains till spring,
then to be handled again, being soggy
and heavy, with the ammonia pretty
much percolated through 1t and lost.
Oftentimes it Is not convenient to apply
the manure i'll some corner of the field
whereon it is to be spread.

Cold Custer City.
From The yirsinia Chronicle

fFOm Inc ' lTS ina chronicle.
A visitor to Yankee Fork, Idaho, in
1881, now residing here, says he arrived
IN Custer City on August 1, in that year,
and on the night following his arrival
snow fell to depth of IS inches. That
year the total fall of snow was 30 feet,
and the residents congratulated them
selves on having such mild winter.
Custer City butchers slaughter cattle
enough in the early fall TO meet the
winter demand and pile the dressed
carcasses up like cordwood in the rear
Of their meat stalls.
No paper is used to wrap meats in
purchased by the patrons, who carry it 10
their homes on sticks of wood fashioned
similar to skewers and pushed through
the steaks or rOasts TO keep the hands
from coming in contact with the icy
meat, which is frozen so hard that dog
cannot chez ii until the frost is thawed
out over a fire.
Miners purchase beef by the quarter
and throw II on top of the wood pile IL
front of their cabins, ana when they &c
out to chop an armful of wood they also
chop off steak from the beef for their
meals

Finish 1t.

When Samuel F. b. Morse. after
wards famous as the inventor of the
electric telegraph, was a young painter
studl ing IN London, he made a draw
ing from a small cast of the Farnese
Hercules, intending to offer it to Ben
iamin West as an example of his work.
Being anxious for the favorable
opinion Of his master, he spent a fort
night upon the drawing, and thou, Int
lie had made 1t perfect
When Mr.. West saw the drawing,
he examined it critically, commended
it in this and that particular then
hand it back, saying: Very well, sir.
very well, sir, very well. Go on and
finish it,
But it is finished" said the young
artist.
"Oh, not" said Mr.. West; look
here. and here. and here" And he nut
his finger upon various unfinished
places.
Mr.. Morse saw the defects. now that
they were pointed out to. him, and de-
voted another week to remedying them.
Then he carried the drawing again to
the master. Mr. West was evidently
much pleased, and lavished praises
upon he work; but at the end he
handed it back, and said as before ::
Very well, indeed, sir Go on and
finish it."

Care for Pianos.

1t is remarkable how very oddly peo-
pie proceed about taking care Of their
pianos, from sheer ignorance. 1t is
popular notion that pianos ought TO be
kept very dry. Nothing could be more
fali2cjOus. Pianos are not affected
nearly so much by heat or cold as thew
are by dryness. but, reyersely. also bv
dampness. II is not generally known
that the sounding board. the life of
piano, is forced into the case when if is
made so tightly that it bulges up in the
center, or has a belly" as it is called
by pianOforte makers, on the same priu-
ciple as violin. The wood Is supposed
to be rs dry as possible, but of course 1t
contains some moisture, and gathers
more on damp days and in handling
Now, when a piano is put into an over
heated. dry room. all this moisture is
dried out, and the board loses its
belly" and gets habby, and finally
cracks. Even If it does not crack, the
tone loses It's resonance and grows thin
and tinny, the felt cloth and leather
used in the action dry up, and the whole
machine rattles. Now how to prevent
this. Nothing is easier. Keep a grow
ing plant IN your room, and so long as
your plant thriyes, your piano ought TO,
or else there is something wrong with
it. 1t should be noted how much more
water viii have to be poured into the
flower put in the room where the piano
is than in any other room. In America
it is the practice to keep a large vase or
urn with q sopping wet sponge IN it
near or under the piano, and keep it
mOistened. This is kept up all the
time the fires are on. Iron.
