MONEY And BUSINESS.

Tbere is any amount of unemployed money

has its instructive side with respect 10 many
branches Of business. That the public was in
clined TO fight all the trusts with unrelenting
hostility was clear enough, but il is good thing
that capitalists recognize the fact
What are called the industrial stocks will hard
" dominate the market hereafter. Whether good
had or Indifferent. they are at all events on an
entirely different basis from the securities which
represent the movement of products TO consumers.
The negotiations of railroad managers within the

there is a feeling that progress towards the end

THE SALT MONOPOLY DEFE4 TED.

A few DAYS ago one of the promoters OF the
Salt Union kindly mentioned that an advance IN
the mice would be of no serious Importance to
the public. because the cost of salt consumed
for each person was 50 small. But investors in
this country and also in England seem to have
concluded that the dear public is not in the
mood to be fieeced any more at present and the
negotiations for the purchase Of more than
hundred salt works in this country come to
nothing as yet.
Probably this undertaking would have sue
ceeded had not the participation OF EngllSh pro-
moters, who are at the head OF the trust when
has advanced the price 90 per cent or more IN
Great Britain led Americans to expect a similar
policy If the trust here was formed. Capitalists
who would have been glad to share the profits
began to think whether there might not be
losses to share The recent discovery of an
enormous deposit Of salt in Kansas, and IN
formation as to the extent and richness OF the
Louisiana deposits doubtless had something to
do with the result. But the fact of controlling
influence, probably was the strong aniagonlsm
of public opinion in country where public
opinion makes and interprets the law.
Several recent decisions of courts have called
public attention to the fact that combinations
intended to restrict production or to control
prices are not tolerated by the law. But In a
dozen States or more special laws have been
proposed or passed this year for the purpose OF
preventing or defeating that conspiracy against
the public welfare commonly called trust.
1t is hardly necessary to say that these meas
ures are in some cases too sweeping. Ihey
prohibit organizations which may be of great
public benefit, as well as others which are radl-
cally harmful But public opinion is likely to
err on the safe side, if at all, in this case, ana
investors are wise who decline to put up money
in the expectation that Americans will ind no
redress when confronted with an oppressive
monopoly.
Flee-trade Democrats have the idea that
trusts and other similar combinations are los
tered by the tariff. If they could realize how
the sugar monopolists feel about the matter ana
the promoters of the Salt Trust, they might
change their minds. The power OF the people
to smash any combination, by reducing or
abolishing a duty ON imports, is one which
monopolists are just now inclined to regard
with great respect

DEMOCRATIC UNION IN NETWORK.

The public had supposed that the Democracy
of this State was divided into two factions, the
Hill men and the anti-Hill men. The Hill wing
is the rum wing. All the Democratic Saloonkeep-
ers are in it. 1t is also the machine wing. All
the bosses who are opposed to ballot reform are
in it. Is there no other wing? Do all the
Democrats in this broad Commonwealth desire
TO be understood as standing with David b.
Hill in his malgn opposition to whatever tends
to place wholesome checks upon intemperance
and to conserve the purity of the ballot-boX ?
Is HILL the peanut politician, Hill, "whiskey' 5
Governor,n strong in the confidence, not only
of the worst element, but Of the better element
of his party?
Well. if "The Buffalo Courier is to be be-
lieyed all the Democrats of New ok are
Hill Democrats. In other words, they are all
anti-reform Democrats. Here is what 1.-The
Courier says:
For the Republicans who expect that In the coming
Democratic State Convention element OF the party
will oppose Governor Hill disappointment IS in store
There are no Democratic dlssensOns relating 10 state
affairs the convention Will undoubtedly be an en-
tlrely harmonious body of party representatives The
term for which administrative state officers are TO be
elected In November will be coextenslvc with The re-
naming part of the Governors present term. Gov
ernor HIS associates In the State administration
ought TO be I'm accord with him. and the Democratic
party will nominate only candidates for stale offices
whose cooperation with the Governor Will admit OF
no doubt. Moreover, the Governors leadership in
the coming canvass Will be undlsputed.
1t is certainly to be hoped for Democracy's
own sake that "The Courier is mistaken. II
among the leaders or in the rank and file Of that
organization men are not to be found possess
ing sufficient public spirit and courage TO array
themselves against so narrow and INSCRIPTIONS
demagogue as Hill has shown himself TO be
why, then, current Democracy has indeed
reached an mncommonly low level. But there
is good reason to believe that this Buffalo organ
is mistaken Has "The Courier forgotten

II is an encouraging sign when the owners
of an excursion boat are mulcted in heavy DAM
ages for carrying too many passengers. Owners
and officers of such craft are too apt to forget
that there is limit to the number OF people they

hinder of that fact cannot fail to produce good
results. A boat allowed to carry 5000 passengers

Mcpherson is credited with organizing the
