A farmer near Abba, Iowa, by the
name of J. H. Wolf, has found a sure
cure for Group. He says; " For the
last eight years l have recommended
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
Group. Half of a 50 cent bottle will
cure the worst case, if taken in time.
On the Goth of this month, my boy,
four years old, had the Group vey bad,
and three doses cured him. | would
not be without it in my family" If
the remedy is given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse, it will invariably
prevent the Group. so cent bottles for

A DIsFRUsTED TRUST.

h
 The people of Chicago, or some of them at least, are trying to fight the Gas trust in whose clutches they have found themselves. The matter is already in court, but the trust, which at first seemed anxious for hearing, is now causing delay.
 The Chicago Tribune gives an account of what the trust complained of has done for itself and the people of Chicago. The story is an interesting and significant one. The promoters of the trust began operations over year ago. They then found in Chicago four gas companies, of which three were in operation. One of the three was immensely profitable, another had paid well and the third had gone into bankruptcy, been reor- ganized, and would possibly have earned a living. The capital stock of these four com- panies did not exceed s14,00O, ,0O0, although considerably watered, and their bonded debt was less than s10,000, 600. A net income of 1,50o, 900 for all the companies would have paid $500, 900 interest on the bonds and per mitted the payment of 6 per cent. divi- dend on the stock. The first step of the promoters was to get control of all these oMpAuleS 4He OaS uFus6 epeCuldtOtS bonded for s10,Oo0, 900 the unincunbered Chicago Gaslight and Coke company, the most profitable of the four properties they bought control of. Of this $1O,000, ,000 in bonds they have sold $7,65O,0Oo, which is probably just about what they had to pay for the interests they purchased. Having thus added nearly $9, 900, 900 to the amount of gas indebtedness which She people of Chi manufactured additional Gas trust stock to the amount of S25, 900, ,00o, which they have been peddling out to all who will buy 1t, with the promise that it will pay dividends. Therefore, since they took hold the stock ot the gas companies on which the people of Chicago are supposed to pay dividends has been increased from the original $15, ,000, 900 to $40, ,000, 900, and the bonds, which the people are expected to pay, principal and interest, have been swollen from $10, ,000, 1000 to SIS, ,000,0
 It is further stated that while the cost of making the gas has been reduced, the price of it has been raised, and the additional rev. enue has not been expended in improving the quality of the gas or extending the works. Indeed, it is reported that the peo- pie complain not only that the price is high, but also that the gas is very poor. It is evil dent that the Chicago Gas trust has been too smart. It should have squeezed it's victims more gently to start with.
Morning journal and courier., 1889-01-05

tention of the Colombian government to the fact that there is no parcels post arrangement between that republic and ours, although SO many countries in the western world are ar- ranging or have already arranged to adopt the new and simple system which has been put into operation with Mexico and Canada. "There are thousands of small articles manu- factured in the United States" it says, (which are in daily demand here, and should once the parcels post lead to the introduction of samples, large stocks would be imported to supply this market" The advantage in this system, as is we'll known to those em- ploying it, is that the old expensive and la borious routine of consular certificates and invoices is entirely abolished, and anything tha. is properly mailable, up to a given weight, can be sent according to the rates of the country of origin.
 Some startling facts regarding the state of the laboring classes in Austria have just been brought to light in a report made by N. de Vogelsang, director of the Austrian Social Reform Review" His inquires ex- tend over series of years, and include near- " OUU DraucQ6S or mRnuIdCIuIo auu in which over 100, GOO persons are employed. He found that in the towns of Lower Austria, in the drying works for calico prints. women and children were obliged to work from a. m. to 10 p. m. in temperature of over 100 degrees. In nearly every branch of manu- facture he examined, fourteen hours labor per day was the average, ,or ninety nine hours per week. In factories at WarnsdorH, Bohe- mia, children under thirteen years were re- quired to work as long as adults. In the manufacture of chemical products at Auaiz, Bohemia, some of the workmen are required to labor twenty-four hours at stretch, and some of them are obliged to do thirty six hours for days work. The pay of these wretched people is given as follows: Coal miners working by the piece can earn from 43 to 80 cents day; by the day from 25 to 4s cents; coal workers, from 40 to 30 cents; workers in oil wells, from 35 to 40 cents; women in factories can earn only from 20 to 30 cents @ day, and children, from to 8 cents. Chemical makers get from 45 to 60 cents; glass workers the same; paper makers, from B to 50 cents for men, and from IS to 40 cents for women. The figures are about the same all the way through the list.
