Gray departed. When taken before Com

Good News for Farmers,

The American Harvester Com
pany, of Chicago, after securing
the opinion of eminent counsel
from different States, has been
brought face to face with grave
legal obstacles to the consumma-
ton of the enterprise for which it
was formed. These are of such a
character that after the most se-
rious and careful consideration the
conclusion has been reached that
the whole undertaking must be
abandoned. 1t believes that in
thus promptly taking this action
it's course will meet with the an.
proval of the public.
An evening paper says:
The collapse of the gigantic bus.
mess combine so far as can be
learned is now attributed to the
secession of the Mccormick Har-
vester Machine Company, the
Deering Company, the Whitman
Barnes Manufacturing Company,
and the firm of Bushnell & Gless-
ner. These individual companies
were not satisfied with the line of
policy mapped out by the majority
of the directors in the matter of
raising prices on the farmers and
the consolidation of the interests to
the disadvantage of their custom
ers, and they were so rebelious at
the last meeting of the directory
that before night had closed they
had determined to draw from the
combine and cut prices and ami
hilate those who remained stead
fast in their purpose to bleed the
farmers. A merry war is now in
prospect. 1t is each firm for itself,
cut, slash and let die those whe
cannot help themselves.

Why could not the question o.
cheaper school books be solved by
the Governor appointing a com
mission of five well qualified
teachers to investigate the subject,
and, if they consider it advisable,
to let the contract for publishing
the books to the lowest bidder.
This plan would give the public
the benefit of competition, which is
the best cure for extortionate
prices, without encouraging the
principles Of paternalism in state
government, which Is always open
