THE BERLIN CONFERENCE.

Whatever agreement may be made
between this country and Germany con-
corning Samoan affairs, Mr.. BLAINE
will have to shoulder the full response
bility; for the commissioners appointed
by the president yesterday are all Mr..
BLAINE close personal friends, and will
unquestionably do his bidding. Still
the commission is an able one, and
fully competent to grasp all questions
of international law that are likely to
arise during the progress of the con-
ference. The Samoan trouble has been
in existence long enough for Secretary
BLAINE to have made UP his mind as
to what demands this government
should make of Germany, and what
concessions, if any, should be
granted. Therefore, we take it that
Messrs. PHELPS, BATES and KAssoN
will go to Berlin with full instructions
from the state department, and will
rigidly adhere to the policy that Mr..
BLAINE shall mark out for them. If
their negotiations result beneficially to
this government, Mr.. BLAINE will be
be entitled to all the credit; if other
wise, he is pretty sure to get the blame.

The other day man stood holding to

He had to make his weaving way from
post to post and tree to tree. As he
stood for moment to get his bearings,
a woman came along with great load
of boards Oh her back and halted for a.
rest.
.'Shee here, ma'am," said the man
after looking at her in cross-eyed way
for some time, ''that's dog-goBed hard,

A young man named John M. Damon,
who had recently been boarding at Sam
sonville, Hight Point, in the Catskill
mountains, has had a tobogganing ex-
perience which he probably will never
forget, and which has caused his hair
to grow white, says Big Indian spe-
cial. On the northern point of Samson
vile, High Point, is rocky slide of
slate about 1,500 feet in length, as
smooth as polished marble and inclined
at an angle of fifty-five degrees. At the
base is yawning chasm fifty feet in
depth. While amusing himself there
the other day by casting huge powders
down the slide, so as to see them bounce
to the opposite side and fall with
crash into the yawning abyss, the
young man lost his balance. and away
he went down the steep. What passed
through his mind in his rapid flight he
will never be able to state clearly, but

he has been Democrat, is on the easy

THE ANTITRUST CONVENTION.

The much-talked-of antitrust con-
Venti0n at st. Louis has been held and
adjourned sine die, and its proceedings
read very much like the description of
the military movements of the cele-
brated French king who marched his
army up the hill and then marched
down again. Each state will proceed to
legislate on trusts according to its local
interests, without regard to the recon-
mendatiOns of the st. Louis convention.
The Texas general antitrust bill,
which is recommended as model for
all the states, and which is presumably
one of Judge REAGAN's numerous
anti-mOnOpoly offspring, appears to be
unobjectionable, Notwithstanding its
adoption was reported to have been en-
couraged by the trust lobbyists who
hung on the outskirts of the con-
vention. But we fail to see
what Minnesota has gained by
sending delegation to st. Louis for a
copy of the bill, al an expense of 81, 900,
when it could be had by mailing two
cent stamp to the clerk of the Texas
legislature. Still, if the returned dele

adopt the bill, we promise to say moth
ing mora about the thousand dollars
that was expended in getting a copy
of it.
The other measure adopted by the
convention, the Nebraska meat 1nspec-
ton bill, is substantially the measure
now pending in the legislature of this
state. The Illinois and Texas delegates
opposed it, the former because it men
aced the Chicago slaughter house in
dustry, and the latter because it would
interfere with the sale of Texas cattle.
So that, after ALL it is just as we indi-
Gated in the beginning-each state will
decide these questions according to it's
own peculiar interests.

1t is curious thought that all the

end and objective point the supply Of
each inhabitant with few feet OF
boards over his head, sustained by
brick or timber, about ten pounds OF
cotton converted into clothing, a bar
rel of flour, and two or three hundred
pounds of meat, each year; and little
sugar, about five pounds of solid or
liquid food per day, these constituting
the necessaries Of life. Some one has
said that life would not be worth living
except for its luxuries, and that time
would not be worth having except for
the hours that could be saved for leis-
ure. How much of luxury and how
much OF leisure can the average man
get out OF what fifty to tifty-fve cents a
day will buy for his shelter, food and

II the report which comes from Zan-

pot of Uganda. who in two years has
earned a reputation for cruelty and
bloodshed not cXceled even by that Of
the deposed King Theba of Burmah,
has been violently removed from the
seat of power his ancestors have held

This young man, only twenty-three

whole world has been deeply inter-

which has produced the blockade OF
the East African coast, and is the talk
Of every capital in Europe.
Mwanga has been described by the
white men at his court as a frivolous,
weak, cowardly boy, easily led by his
tavorites, extremely passionate, and

anger, OF almost unheard of cruelty. He
