ANCIENT AND ABSURD BELIEFS.

In spite of the tenets of the religion to
which he is supposed to belong the negro
still clings to some absurd beliefs and super
stitions, and is under the influence OF priests
or Obea men, who sometimes lead him into
pernlcious practices or even murder. The
stories concerning the existence of fetish
worship or Obea practice among the negroes
in America have been doubted. so / have
been told, but as regards the West Indian
negro can safely say that these practices
do certainly exist. L myself have seen un-
doubted evidence of them, heard the negroes

fueries. When the next competitor en-
tered the field it would find the trust still
more heavily burdened with surplus plants
and could demand still higher price for
its competition. This is the vulnerable
point of all combinations which do not pos
sesS some extraneous means for shutting off
new competition. If the edged-tool combi-
nation, which is the last organization of the
sort announced, puts up prices and makes
profits large. the inevitable result will be to
call two factories into existence where there
was one before. And the last state of that
combination will be worse than the first.
We do not regard Spreckels as any more
disinterested and opposed to monopoly than
the trust operators. But he is the repre-
sentative of competition in the sugar trade,
and is, moreover. the exponent of the gen.
eral principle that the trust which puts up
prices without some such grip as the Stand
ard had on transportation is only sowing the
seeds OF its own destruction.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-02-10
TIE sQUEEZERs SQUEEZED.

Reports have been circulated during the
past Jew days that Claus Spreckels, having
got his new sugar refneries in active opera
tion, had been engaged in secret negotis-
tions with the Sugar Trust for quiet COM
biuation. As the rumors, which are denied
by the Spreckels' interest, agree with the
denials as to the fact that the competition
will 60 on, which has already brought sugar
to reasonable prices and squeezed the water
itself much about the uncertain route by
which that goal has been reached.
There is the less reason for giving much
attention to such stories, because the cir
cumstances render such a combination ex-
tremely difficult. In the first place Spreck-
els has such an advantage over the trust, in
competition, that he must have great in
ducements to give it up. His works are of
the latest construction, represent only the
actual cost of construction and are running
full. The trusts refneries are of older
construction, bearing a heavy load of water
and by the trust policy it must yield profits
on q number of them which are kept idle.
In so heavy handicap the new refner can
make more out of competition than he can
out of combination, except the combination
yields him the lions share of the transac-
ton.
Next, if the trust should pay the long
price necessary to buy on this troublesome
competitor, it would only be offering pre-
MUM for the construction of mere new re-

EVILS nF LEGISLATION.

A rather curious feature of the way oi
looking at things is furnished by some com.
ments in Chief Justice Parsons recent re.
mark that ''the popular remedy for every
evil, social as well as political, is an act oi
Assembly or an amendment to the Constitu.
ton" In illustration, a contemporary
points out the fact that the Constitu.
tion of fPennsylvanla attempted to do away
with special legislation. It was, as this
commentator says, can effort Of flaw-making
to prevent some of the evils of lsw-mak-
ing"
Very true. But such comment in such
a connection is calculated to provoke the in
quiry why this attempt to do away with
special legislation has not been more sue
cessful? Is it not matter of history that
special legislation for the two great cities Of
Pennsylvania is yet possible, because the
constitutional prohibition has been evaded
by the legislative device of classifying these
cities one to each class and legislating es-
pecially for each class? And is it not
further history that the very jurist quoted
as criticising this public evil was not
wholly disconnected from the Judicial in
dorsement of that evasion?
Special Legislation is an undoubted evil,
and the critics of it are fully justified in
their criticisms-if they are quite sure the
beam is out of their own eve.
