CAPITAL is evidently beginning
to understand the significance Of
the popular hostility to trusts. The
unfruitful results of the efforts of
several of these combines to Dor
row money last week SO indicate.
Stocks Of these corporations that a
few weeks ago were "gilt-edged"
receive now little or no considera-
ton. No one can long violate a
natural law with IMMUNITY, and
these trusts exist in violation of
tie natural law of trade as surely
as Of the ethical code and legal
statutes. Their imminent condi-
ton merely again illustrates the
truth Of the trite adage that the
mills Of the gods grind slowly, but
they grind exceedingly fine. Icha-
bod is written on their charters
their day has departed.

IT must be remembered that
while the commercial agencies re-
port a general feeling Of uncertain
ty in the business condition Of the
country. trade is very fair in the
Missouri valley, and there will be
no "hard times" here in case the
crop prospects continue as good as
they are at present. There is every
reason to believe that the yield Of
corn in Nebraska this year will be
phenomenal.

IT is certainly very amusing to
note the different opinions being
expressed concerning the Nebraska
exhibit at the fair. Some laud it
to the heavens. Others curse it to
the profoundest depths Of hades.
The TRIBUNE is constrained to
observe that there seems TO be
more or less method in their NAB
ness. The opinions vary too widely
to be valuable or trustworthy.

II has required a great deal of
kicking" to accomplish what we
have done as a nation. It will re-
quire considerable kicking" to
undo some things that we have not
done wisely. It must be borne in
mind that kicking" necessarily
implies something to be kicked,
and as a general rule it is seldom
that anything gets kicked that
doesn't deserve it.

POLITICS AND BUSINESS.

It is now about a year since the
representative Democrats of the
country assembled in Chicago, and,
among other things, made a fierce
onslaught upon the financial and
business policy of the party then
in power. At that time the country
was eminently prosperous. From
one end Of the land to the other all
interests were thrifty. Wages were
high and everybody had employ
ment. The manufactures of the
country were running at full head;
farmers were getting good prices
for good crops; the banks were &C.
commodating, and commercial
paper was paid when due with a
uniformity which made times good
in every respect. Those harsh
croakings made no perceptible diff
ference with any branch Of bust
ness. Everything continued to
e" move along prosperously all
through the campaign.
The result Of the election was a
surprise to the, business interests
of the country, but the people were
not disposed to magnify its i'm
portance. They generally assumed
that it did not matter much, except
to the politicians, who was Presi-
dent OF which party was given con-
troll Of public affairs. Seven months
have elapsed since the election, and
three months since the inaugural
ion. Nothing has been done Of a
definite nature by the administrat-
ion to disturb the prosperity that
prevailed under Republican rule,
but it is perfectly evident that a
check has been put upon the thrift
which prevailed under Harrison.
The truth is that the business
men Of the country wondered, and
I still wondering, what the people
meant by taking the reins of au-
thority out of the hands Of the
party under which everything was
moving SO satisfactorily. AS long
as this state of mind continues the
general tendency will be to %extraor-
binary caution. Merchants will 60
light in their purchases, manufac-
turers will tend to light runs, and
the banks will be rigid in the cur
tailment Of credits. This general
Tightening up can only be explain
ed on the ground that when a
country which is in the midst Of
prosperity makes a change in the
government the people accept it as
a signal for putting On the brakes.
1t is to be remembered that the
issues joined in the last National
campaign wer business issues.
This was true to a remarkable de-
gree, and it is only natural that
the business men should inquire
diligently into the meaning of the
change. It is to be regretted that
Nh. Cleveland did not call both
houses of Congress together at the
beginning Of his administration.
Had he done SO the suspense would
have been over by this time, prob
ably. Business can adjust itself
to almost anything, provided only
the element Of uncertainty is elimi-
mated. It is uncertainty which is
peculiarly paralyzing in its effect
upon all which comes under the
head of legitimate enterprise and
commercial confidence.

yesterday in the breast at the resi-

A Hotel Man Asst igns.

AsHv1LLE, N c., April 5-Howell
Cobb, proprietor of the Swannanoa
Hotel here, has made an assign
ment for the benefit OF his creditors.
Mr.. Cobb some time ago bought the
new hotel at Hendersonville, which
was only about half completed, and
has been put to heavy expense in
finishing and equipping it, and it is
thought this and the great scarcity
of money everywhere combined to
bring about his failure It is said
his hotel here was paying well, and
there is no doubt that it was largely
patronized. r r Rawls, the owner
of the Swsnnanoa Hotrl, is in charge
now, but it is highly probable that
Mr.. Cobb will soon return to it's
management.

The Bering Sea Arbitration.

PARIS, April 6.-The morning ses-

today was dull and even the elo-

ney General Russell and J. @. Carter
failed to awaken interest, Even the
members Of the court seemed bored,
and it was noticed that the august
head of Sir Johnson, one of the
British arbitrators, frequently nod
ded, suggesting the awful suspicion
that he was tempted to slumber.
Sir Charles Russell concluded his
argument in reply to the objections
of Hon. e J. Phelps, counsel for the
United States to the legal character
of certain evidence offered by Great
Britain. }. G. Carter then pro
ceeded to reply to Sir Charles Rus
