THE STANDARDS NEW DEAL

Only IL Companies, 1t Is Rumored, Will
Form the Next Trust
NEW YORK, March "a Special 1.-The
Standard Oil Trust, it was stated yesterday,
had in its cash box at the date of its dissolu-
tion, on Monday, SIG, ,ooO,o 900 in cash and
Governments, which represents the cumula-
tive profits which then amounted to S2o, ,0O0,-
900. A part of the s26, ooo, 900 now on hand
will be used to strengthen, by increased
capital, some of the smaller companies con-
trolled by the Standard Oil Company. The
remainder of the cash and bonds will be dis
tributed among the certificate holders of the
Standard trust
1t is now believed that the number of the
companies in the Standard will be reduced
to IL, instead of 1S or 20. This will 90 a
long way toward preventing undue friction,
of which some of the original trustees Of the
trust are evidently apprehensive.

Cincinnati Carpenters MAY Strike,

CINCINNATI, March 22-Once more, as
the active building season approaches, there
are serious apprehensions of carpenters
strike. The bosses are preparing for it
They have resolved to act together in what
ever course they decide to take. At re-
cent conference between the Carpenters
Union and the Builders Exchange, a propo-
sition was agreed upon to make the rate of
wages 30 cents an hour for this year and 80
cents for 1898; but now comes the statement
that this treaty is not ratified by the local
carpenters unions, and that many of them
say the rate must be 40 cents an hour. The
agreement led many bosses to make con-
tracts on that basis. Efforts are still being
made to reach an agreement before May1.

An Educational CAMPAIGN.

As stated in the DISPATCH few days ago.
Chairman GoBDoS, of the Democratic
State Central Committee, has written 20 a
friend in this city that headquarter cam
paign work will commence about the 18th
Of this month. The State Central and tho
Executive Committees will assemble here
in conference, appointments for speakers
will be made, and a plan Of campaign
mapped out. Judging from the public
meetings which have already been held
in different parts of the State. 1t is
evident that there will be no difficulty IN
securing speakers. Nor will there be any
difficulty in securing audiences TO hear
them. The leaders are anxious to be in the
field and tho people are eager for the night
TO begin all along the line. The Third
party managers have been clamoring TOR
an educational campaign, and the promise
is that the Democrats will give them one
to their sorrow. and with the re-
suit Of showing the small follow
ing Thrd-party s n has drawn from the
Democratic party IN the State that chasing
the Omaha movement Is chasing rainbow
and playing INTO the hands of the Repub-
hcans. The outlook is for an educational
campaign which will demonstrate that the
force bill is the supreme issue OF the cam
paign, and that to this issue patriotism ana
regard for good and honest government de-
mand all others shall be subordinated.
That done, and Third-partyism in Viz
ginia will grow small by degrees and beau
tifully less until the day Of election, when
II will be buried under a mountain OF
Democratic ballots.

State Banks of Issue.

We would say to the Times that we en-
dorse some If not most of the general pro-
positions which 1t Laws down IN regard to
the currency problem. We are not at
tached 10 the existing national bank
system. On the contrary, we have often
said that we would like to see the Federal
Government divorced from the banks.
But no sound proposition that we know
of 10 set up new State banks OF issue has
been made public. We do not believe that
the people can take care of themselves in
this matter. The fathers Of the reruhhc
did not believe they could. We he d that
they must be protected 10y the government.
Congress has power to coin money and
regulate ITS value. II every person
chooses 10 issue circulating notes, why
not, if the Ttme}S premises be true? We
have seen the independent bank system
tried. We never desire 10 see II tried
again. Mr.. FLANAGAN. of New York, has
proposed what he considers an improve
ment upon the present national banking
system. Mr.. ST. JOHN, Of the same city ,
finds. he thinks. better banks than ours Ia
several other countries. But the govern
ment in all these eases is TO take care of
the people. VIII the Times outline sys-
TEN Of banking which It thinks would
answer in place of the presents We have
said very little about the 10 per cent. tax
except incidentally. One per cent. would
probably do as well as 10. We have no
fear that the business men OF this country
will ever take up again with independent
banks. We are more afraid of sub-treasuTy
systems and fiat money. and all that sort
OF thing. than we are Of the impracti cable
independent banking system.
