GOULD ON TRUSTS.

Perhaps the message OF the president
was too brief TO afford space for his
opinion of the trusts that are taking adj.
vantage of the opportunities afforded
by high tariff rates to combine and nil
lage the public goose. If there were anv
lack of information on the subject. JAY
GOULD could supply it. His health has
improved so of late that he is able 10
talk quite freely, and he is generally in
teresting. JAY is engineering a STU
pendous railroad trust, one that will
pretty much cover the Western coun-
try. In a recent interview he dispar-
ages the common brood of trusts. such
as the sugar, whisky, lead and others
that control the necessaries of life. He
attributes to them some of the responsj-
bility for the late pressure in money.
His objection is not to them that thew
are oppressive monopolies. but because
their stock issues put upon the market
are so enormously disproportioned to
the Investment as to excite distrust and
loss of confidence in such investments.
He says:

Against Unlimited Tickets.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-The question of
the abolition of unlimited tickets, max
ing all single-trip tickets sold at any
rate continuous passage was thoroughly
discussed at to-day's meeting of the
Western Passenger association. A res
olution was passed unanimously that it
was the sense of the association that
the sale of unlimited local and through
tickets should be discontinued. that
connecting lines should he so advised,
and that on a given date no unlimited

VOTING THAT MEANT 1T.

1t is suggestive and amusing to look
to Texas and see that FLANAGAN run

bered as the one who brought down the
Republican national convention with
the inquiry, 'What are we here for, but

but the remuneration was not looked
for in the state capitol. The majority
for the other man was about 16O,O 900.
But that was exceeded by the Demo-
cratic candidates for congress- The ten
Democrats had an aggregate majority Of
167, 4S9. 1t was the fact in every state,
at least in the North, except PennsyI-
YanIa, that the majoritieS against the
Republicans were the largest Oh mem
bers of congress. Several of the Texas
districts roll up more than 10000 major
lty. Those who complain that too little
voting is done in the South cannot
have any reference to Texas. 1t has
never been alleged that the Republicans
there were at all Obstructed in voting.

but they are not asking for high duties
on wool. Mir. MILLS, as the champion
of free wool, had his majority swelled
from 5000 to 10000. In Massachusetts,
and Iowa the Republicans secured most
OF the state officers, but the tariff reform
candidates for congress had nearly TO-
600 majority i'll each. There is hardly
more significant vote among the pro-
tected manufacturing interests than in
New Jersey. Two years ago the Re-
publicans had 1,400 majority on con-
gressmen. and elected four out of the
seven. Now, after contest on the tariff
bill, the Democrats have $4,000 majority
and i've out of seven members, The
largest gains were in the districts where
are great pottery, iron, glass and silk
manufactures, showing the opinion of
the workingmen OH the measure. West
Virginia was claimed as going for the
Republicans in view of large protected
Interests, but it rubbed out all the little
maJoritleS that afforded such induce
ments to Mr.. REEDS body to turn out
the Democrats. Each Of them is now
given a margin of some thousands. and
the aggregate is 1926. On the vote for
Judge the majority is but S,446. The
parties in each of these states that were
expected to enthuse over the new tariff

Harmonious Action of wealthy

DEDHANi, Mass, Dec. "A most in
teresting case is now before the Norfolk
county probate court-that of the es-
tate of the late II. w. Shapleigh, of
Brookline, who died worth nearly $780,
coo, leaving no Will and about thirty
heirs. There was found in Mr.. Shap-
leigh's wallet, however, paper in his
handwriting, but unsigned, drawn i'll
the form of a promssOry note, III which
he promised to pay different sums of
$4,000 or $40. 900 to his nearest relatives.
The total amount thus mentioned was
SS06,00 1t included several relatives
who would not otherwise have received
anything. A family meeting was
held upon the discovery of
this paper, and the members
decided to accept its provisions and
abide by them. They agreed also to set
aside sum for the maintenance of the
church and cemetery at West Lebanon,
Me-, in which the deceased had always
displayed deep personal interest. A
lawyer says of the eaee that it is most
extraordinary one to see such bulk of
property distributed among so large
family with such an evident desire to
carry out the wishes of the deceased. 1t
was also discovered that he had dis
burSed nearly $300,000 in charity.
