pay dividends On inflated capital. Asa good deal of this stock has been sold to innocent parties, the sellers consider themselves bound to protect such par ties against shrinkage of capital which would appear in the form of dead loss to second hand investors. Their sense of honor has possibly been stimulated by the apprehension that a stock shrinkage would iniure the prospects of future transactions of like nature.
 Senator Chandler thinks the inter- state commerce commission should keep one of it's three eyes on the new railroad trust. Most people will agree in this with Chandler without distinction of party. The trust, if well ganized, will in one respect be like family-it may have it's little domestic dissensions, but It will be unit against the com mon enemy. The Standard Oils prices for the article 1t deals in have never been exorbltant, but, having the whole Union for a field of operation, it has made itself the largest association of capital in the world. It has elected one president, several United States sen- of1 iaI senatorial aspirants in it's ante-room. A compact railroad trust can worm dol lars out of the people where the Stand ard Oil trust could find only dimes. Senator Chandler evidently was not far wrong in calling the attention of the proposed transportation trust.

AND DAMAGES.


 A curious outcome of the institution of libel suit against newspaper has been reported from San Francisco, says the Houston Post. A man who was charged by publication with being murderer, and who was in need of money brought suit against the publish CT, evidently ss a bluff, aud in hope of forcing compromise before the facts were gone into.
 But he failed to properly size up the com bativeness of the paper. Agents and detectives were put on the case, and they soon unearthed such mass of evidence against the plaintiff that he was indicted in Missouri for the murder and has been carried to that state for trial. It is remarkable illustration of bluff and buster and blackmaiI over reaching the mark. It is kind of in- stance of the thief crying stop thief so Justify and quickly as to fasten all the attention upon himself.
 It is often the case that libel suits are instituted to cover up rather than vim dicate character, the hope and purpose being to wiring 8 compromise from the publishers before facts are ever probed to the bottom. There are comparative. ly few cases of the recovery of damages where the action is properly defended. Even the most careful and reputable pa per will make mistakes at times, just as the most careful and reputable business men do now and then. But the amende honorable is never refused to citizen who has been unintentionally and through seemingly reliable sources wronged. To reasonable man and a representative citizen this amende is al- ways sufficient. The character that stands fairest and strongest in the con- munity is the last to feel the necessity of going to law to establish it. It is oftenest the character for revenue only that feels the need of asking the courts to measure up it's broken pieces in dol lars and cents.
 But it makes great mistakes at times as in this San Francisco instance.

which was promised we find largely re- duced exports, especially in breadstufts. It is too early to say whether or not this disappointing condition of things is to be extended to the movement of the worlds bread supply. but If it does Rus5ia's 400 million bushels of wheat will be much. more largely drawn upon for the needs of Great Britain, and other countries which must go into the worlds market for supplies than the United States will be. Russia has a larger surplus than ours, and will sell for any price that is fixed by the pur- chasers. The United States may hold its grain under prices that will prohibit export, but if so it will be because of the confidence that every body has in the early return ot general prosperity at home.
 "The markets of the world," about which SO much was said in the last political campaign seem to be very well supplied with reference to what we have to sell, and the msnipulations of the party in power have not been such as to give much encouragement to those who believe all the people on the foot stool are compelled to patronize us whether or not their disposition lies in that direction. Our farmers have near ly half a billion bushels of wheat to sell. If we can have prosperity at home the surplus will be inconsiderable. If our own people cannot afford to eat it, then we must Tell it at any price offer ed or store it up and take chances on the future.

THE WORLDS WHEAT CROP.

THE WORLO'o w HEAT CROP.
 There is large fund of material in the latest estimate of the worlds wheat crop for speculative use by those who make figures on the future prospects of the markets at home and for the eco- nomists who insist that the price of the American product depends entirely on the conditions of supply and demand.
 Of the estimated total product of the present crop season the United States furnishes one. sixth of the amount. In other years, recently, the proportion has been but barely fifth. h series of ten years the proportion of this country has not been above that for which we now have credit, and on the facs of the figures we might conclude that the prospects of the foreign demand would be better than the average. But it must be taken into account that other conditions have great deal to do with the movement of the surplus which we have for sale.
 II we look at the movement of do- mestic products to foreign countries we find disappointing results on all sides. In place of the stimulated foreign trade

A TRANSFORMATION TRUST.

The transportation trust, which has for some time been foreshadowed, ap. pears now to be taking substantial form. The New York Tribune of late date announces the meeting in that city of sixteen presidents appointed by the Trunk Line association to formulate means for maintaining east bound and west bound freight rates. The con- bination, it is reported, will represent the greatest association of capital the world has ever known. Senator Chan dler of New Hampshire, calls the atten- ton of the interstate commerce com mission to the new association. The object in view evidently is to abolish competition in freight and passenger rates. For some time the great Ameri- can railroads have been ontem plating the alternative of letting the water out of their stock or forming a combination by which rates could be maintained at a figure which would enable them 10

Those at the head Of the movement

pointed to take immediate control Of
all financial matters relating to the

Messrs w. A. Clark, E. H. Priogle and

funds are more needed than anything
else, aud be hopes that every county
will forward to Mr.: W. 4 Clark in
this city. all funds as rapidly as they
are raised. These funds must be
placed in the hands of the committee
at once so that he work Of the prepara-
ton of the exhibits can be proceeded
with without any further delay. A

tain amounts; and the Governor spe-
cially requests these amounts TO be

The Rottenness in Aiken
Bench Warrants Issued For
Reported" Officials.
Special to The State.

AIKEN. June 22.-To-day Judge
r. c. Watts, who has been presiding
for week in the General Sessions
Court here, issued bench warrants
for George w. Sawyer, ex county
commissioner, w. E Arthur and R
L. Johnson, requiring them to appear
before him and give bond on an in
dictment hereafter to be made. The
solicitor has not yet had time to make
out the indictments and the exact
charges which will be made against
them is not yet known, and the war
rants being issued only serves to hold
them until the indictments are dawn.
This is the result of the recent pre-
sentiment Of the grand jury against
the above named parties.
Judge Watts also instructed the
county commissioners to Immediately
take out proceedings against ex-Pro-
bate Judge John I CASTOR for failing
to turn over to the present probate
Judge the sum of 81, 400, which said
shortage was reported at our court
preceding this, and also reported at
this court, and Mr. CASTOR has been
ordered before Judge Watts to show
why an Indictment should not be
made against him
Judge Watts has made many good
Impressions on our people since he
begun the business of this court, and
in fact everybody seems TO be very
much pleased by the manner in
which he has conducted the business
of the court. He has made many
friends since he arrived in Aiken
Our court will finish up it's term on
next Tuesday next Monday and
Tuesday being for equity business.
All of the sessions business is over.
