Is the Reading Coal Combine to holdi

Is the Reading Coal Combine to hoida
 Chancellor McGill, of the New Jersey superior court, has rendered decision adverse to the Reading mbination, but it's operations do not seem to have been checked thereby, as there has been an- other advance whereby consumers have been again sharply squeezed. The new combine can get their coal to tide water without crossing New Jersey. Now, if Pennsylvania courts will only grant an other hostile decision, matters would assume another phase, and the combine would have to come down. It is certain ly to be hoped that the sound principles enunciated by Chancellor McGill may be applied to the Reading combine in such way as to regulate its possibilities of extortion. Railroad charters are not granted for any such purpose as the Reading people are construing them. Rockville Journal

Might Have Known the Hardins.

A respectable looking colored man of the old school was standing near the family carriage, on Fourth avenue, the other day. He was gazing at the display of laces in the windows when a seedy white man, who looked as if he was about to beg, ap- preached and said:
 "How do you do, uncle~
 "Howdy, sahS" responded the old fel- low, lifting his hat.
 "You were born in Kentucky, were you notp"
 "Yes, sah."
 Didn't you once belong to the Hardinsp
 "Yes, sah."
 "I used to know the Hardins," said the tramp, getting ready to make his request.
 "Yes, sah; dey waz lots people dat knew de Hahdins dat de Hahdins didn't know," and he proudly opened the car riage door to allow his mistress to enter.- Louisville Courier-Journal.

Possibility of Good Prices.

Possibility of Good Prices.
The more nearly the products
of any nation can be consumed
within its own borders, the higher
will be the price that producers
will receive for the surplus pro.
ducts that they may happen to
have for expectation, and the high
er will be the prices paid for the
products of all of our industries.
Receiving high prices for his
product, each producer will be
able to pay high prices for such
Of the products of his fellow pro.
ducers as he may wish to con.
sumo. The operatives in each in.
dustry will receive the highest
possible wages, provided they pre-
vent the Importation of competi.
tive products and place proper
restraints on the immigration of
competitive labor.
The first step toward securing
this result is the procuring of
ample Protective legislation.

Women Newspaper Readers

Women Newspaper Readers.
The rapid advance of women as
a factor in journalism has been
the subject of frequent commnet,
especially among the many to
whom the development of the
modern newspaper furnishes an
interesting study.
Of kindred and perhaps even
greater interest, however, is the
evolution of women as a newspa
per reader. 1t would be difficult,
perhaps, TO determine which of
these is cause and which effect;
whether the introduction of fe.
male writer's has inculcated the
newspaper reading habit has been
responsible for the multiplication
of women journalists. Certain it
is that they have both developed
amazingly in very recent years.
Time was when the question,
"What woman reads a newspa-
per" was pertinent, but it is no
longer so. Better ask now,
"What woman does not read a
newspaper" The newspaper
reading habit is working it's insi.
duOus way into the drawing room
and the very inmost recesses of
the home circle. Its growth is in
harmony with and the natural
consequence of the broadening
of woman's field and the elevation
of the standard Of female edu.
cation.
Evidence of this spread of the
newspaper fad among the gentler
sex is seen in the increased
space given in great dailies to
feminine subjects. Formerly on
ly the woman's magazines treated
this topics; now every enterprising
daily handles them, and within
the last few days the newspaper
with the largest circulation in this
country, the New York World,
has announced that it will here
after print every day a page de-
voted to women and their affairs.

Against Jerry.
Wichita Beacon.

Wichita Beacon.
AdvlCes from Kansas contain much to
warrant the hope that the Hon. Jerry
Simpson may be elected In November to
stay at home and grow up with the coun-
try. In that event the soCkleSS demR-
gogue Of the untutored west will be very
pleasantly missed In the halls Of congress.
-NeW York Press.
The above 10 run on the editorial page
OF the Hutchinson NetUS and various
other republican papers. Now the ques-
ton is naturally suggested: Why should
people In New York desire the defeat of
Jerry Simpson?
There are no New York papers taking
any particular interest In the defeat of
Funston. Then it must be that Jerry
Simpsons vote in congress Is not given
every time In the interest Of New York,
while New York republicans have no
reason to be dlspleased with Mr.. Funs-
ton.
The majority Of republicans sent to
congress from Kansas have been mere
tools In the hands of eastern monopollSts.
The republican congressman from Kan
sss vote for any and every single gold
standard scheme originating In Wall
street and every robber tariff scheme In
the interest Of New England. That is
just what Chester l. Long will do If
elected and that Is just what Jerry Simp-
son will not do, and that is why the mo-
nopolles all over the country want Jerry
Simpson defeated.
This vigorous fight against Jerry Slmp-
son by monopolist organs all over the
country ought to open the eyes Of every
voter Of the Seventh district. So far as
the interests of Kansas Is concerned the
people Of this district would just as we'll
allow New York and Pennsylvania mo-
nopollsts to elect their congressman as
to elect Kansas republican.
