A Cordsee Combine.

Two new cordaee companies have just
been incorporated at Ottawa, each with q
capital Of 81, 100000. The two concerns
have secured control OF oil the twine and
cordage factories in Canada. The object
OF thus consolidating the cordaRe business
Of the Dominion is to work In accord with
the manufactures in the United States,
who control the worlds supply Of raw ma
terial, and thereby to obtain the benefit Of
decreased prices for the raw material. The
American combine was caused BY the high
prices demanded by the producers OF hemp
in South America and the PHILIPPINE Islands.
Some OF the members OF the American
syndicats are interested in the new Cana

THE SUMMIT 60. FARMERS AND
THEIR WOES,

We are In receipt Of printed circu-
lar from the summit Co, Farmers ln-
stitute, with headquarters at Cuyahoga
Fails, on the grave troubles that now
a0lict farmers, In the line Of unjust and
oppressive taxation, We are requested
by the Secretary, Mr NJ. Crawford Of
Cuyahoga Falls, 10 publish this circu-
lar. The committee responsible for
this circular claim they are non partl-
san, and that the argument Of the cir
cular is based on investigation Of facts,
outside Of all political considerations,
We should be glad to publish this cir
cular entire, had we space to spare, but
we VIII content ourself with printing It's
substance, This farmers committee,
after thorough investigation of the
question Of taxation, lind that the
farmershave been bearing, and are still
bearing, an enormously unjust share Of
taxes, aud they prove this by the sta
tistics,
This committee find that all the
banks in summit county pay on val.
uation Of S59gOO0 only; telephones on
only Sl3,sl7; street rail roads on S27.
G2O and telegraph companies on only
Sll,3l0. Below we quote from the cir.
cular:
"The w. u. Telegraph Co. in 1889 is
said 10 have sworn In by their chief clerk
their Summit county line NJ $40 per mile.
On page 1913, U. S. Treasury Abstract, you
may find that this same company purchaB-
cd the 6,Ill miles Of B, d %. telegraph line
for 100000, or over Ni5 per mile. The
reported earnings OF this line, although
entitled 70 no share Of receipts for mos
sages going outside state boundaries, Is
over 80 per cent on investments.N
This is quite a startling statement.
While the farm lands in Summit coun.
ty do not pay over 3per cent on their
estimated value, and while the farmers
are compelled to pay taxes on their
lands, horses, cattle, and farm imple.
ments at near their cash value, the
Western Union Telegraph company
pay on Sl5 per mile, on property that In
earning ~ per cent on probably S7i5
per mile valuation.
Next this circular treats Of the de-
cline Of farm lands in summit county,
which lie adjacent to thrifty towns and
cities where milllonaires mostly do
thrive Here we quote again from the
circular:
"What was known as the Clarke farm
OF 100 acres, with splendid buildings and
improvements, adjoining the corporation
and overlooking the beautiful village Of
Hudson, this county, had an offer some
years ago OF $4,000. Although for sale II
