Mr.. Weinman had been troubled with his
stomach for over three years. the most pro-
nounced symptoms being nausea and vomiting
of food, with soreness over region of stomach.
Tongue always coated, with foul taste In morn
spots before eyes, roaring in ears, stopping up
of nostrils. During the last few months hack
ing cough set in. sleep became disturbed, and
he would get up in morning more tired than
when he went to bed. Night sweats came on,
and he lost flesh and strength daily. Three
days before calling at DR.. Byers' office he vom-
tied up every meal. DR.. Byers diagnosed his
trouble to be catarrh of the head and stomach,
and under his treatment the nausea was re-
lieved instanraneously, and in one month Mr..

AN OHIO MAN SAYS THEY ARE ILLEGAL.
E1-Congressman Amos Townsend, of Ohio,
politicians:
Trusts are illegal I certainly think they are
illegal because they are opposed to fair, open
competition and have tendency to raise the
price of commodities, Trusts are, in common
speculative parlance, corners, and give to a few
individuals the right to dictate and regulate the
price of articles necessary for consumption.
On wheat cotton and corn no trusts are formed
because the production of these staples is gen.
eral and it would be impossible to regulate and
control the price in each State. But an article
like sugar, for instance, a necessity-why, 1t is
so firmly in the hands Of trusts that even the
cane-growing farms are owned by them, and
the price Of sugar can be decided upon py tnose
autocrats long before the cane is planted.
These kinds of trusts are not in consonance
with the spirit of our civilization, and will not
stand before the Law.
EDITOR ARKENs' OPINION.
John Arkens, editor of the Rocky Mount
ain NewS:
The Standard Oil Trust has done more
good than harm and has reduced the price OF
light to a minimum. If the Standard Oil Com
pany had raised the price of oil and not made
light cheap confess that it would be a trust
not to be encouraged When q number of
wells of petroleum, say enter into business
cOmOlne Win Tue purpose OF REDUCING tue
price of petroleum, it is all right, because the
poor people profit thereby. Then, to be brief,
trusts are all right when they combine to give
the people cheaper food, fuel or light, and
harmful when they assume the prerogatiVes
of debating higher prices and sitting competi-
ton.

READY TO TRY ANYTHING.
The manufacturers are in the condition Of
patients that have tried in vain every doctor of
the regular school for years. and are now liable
to become the victims of any quack that ap-
Psars. Combinations syndicates trusts-they
are willing to try anything. In the presence of

Each factory is rated as worth a certain
amount. officers are chosen, and through these

prices. In transportation the situation, while
practically the same differs in some particu-

to exact for more than a brief season, and
very brief season indeed, unusual profit upon
actual capital invested. either in transporta-
tion or manufacture, so long as all are free to
compete, and this freedom, it may safely be
asserted, the American people are not likely to
restrict.
Mr.. Henry George has always insisted
that the principle OF protection in vogue in
this country is responsible for the presence
of trusts. He still holds to his belief. Ee
said:
Trusts are always the outgrowth of monop-
oily, and, so far as they exist in this country,
are mainly the result of the workings of the
tariff with which this land is burdened. The
first and most efficient way of getting rid of
them is by abolishing the whole tariff system,
with all its iniquIties. and giving us absolute
free trade.

EX-GOVernOf huluS BULLOCK, OF Georgia,
Government Director of the Union Pacific
Railroad:
II all depends upon the character of the trust
whether it is injurious and inimical to the pub
lie good. A trust has right to exist if it has
for its object the pooling of interests that will
not raise the price of an article of consumption
If several men in the same line of business find
that by joining together they can sell cheaper
and make just as good profits, then the public
good in no way suffers. But IL trusts
exist to raise prices and defeat and crush
competition then they become dangerous
There are absurd trusts that are formed to
regulate prices not in their line of business
One Of these is the Farmers Alliance which
has virtually formed trust against jute ior
bagging. This alliance taxes its members so
much per head and persists in buying cotton
bagging. 1t even goes so far as TO buy car
loads of bacon, which is turned over to an
agent to sell TO members of the Alliance. The
merchant in the farmers nearest town is of
course more OF less injured. His business is
being taken away from him by the farmer. who
is in turn trying to be q merchant himself
Here now is the sample Of trust that Is
against the national avenues Of trade, and has
tendency to break down competition. After
al, the agent is merchant-yes; more danger
