WHEN TRUSTS RULE.

The New York Journal says that
If the issue should be put in this
form Shall the Trusts run the
Government, or the Government
run Trusts?" 1t needs no special
foresight to predict the popular
answer.
The people cannot afford to allow
the Trusts to become so powerful
that tuey will practically rule the
country When the Trusts rule,
they will not merely control the nee
essaries of life, but the people. They
will have it in their power not only
to limit production and raise prices
but to throw out of employment
the masses of producers, by
closing some factories and opening
others during a political campaign,
and by shifting bodies of workers
about the county, they could
disfranchise large numbers of vo-
ters BY secretly spreading ru-
mors OF threatened shut-downs
they could intimidate and coerce
thousands OF others,

The Count st. Germain, who ap-
peared in Paris in the reign of Louis
XIV and pretended to be possessed of

was almost as great as his master
in the art of lying. Once, when the
count was describing at a dinner
party a circumstance which occur
red at the court of "his friend King
Richard | of England, /" he appealed
to his servant for the confirmation
of his story, who, with the greatest
composure, replied, "You forget,

master musingly, "it was little

Ny love, she Is no longer young.
Her hair is ringed with gray.
The grace that to her figure chung
Does not remain today.
Her step Is not SO light as erst.
Her cheek is paler grown.
Her hand is thinner than when frst

One slender finger holds in wnrd
Our unions token fair.
Then close it chung, but now guard
Confines the circlet there.
Her eyes with tender love are Lit.
They gaze upon me now.
The signature of care is writ
In wrinkles on her brow.
Four times has heaven enriched our good
With treasure from the skies,
And thrice has grief unlocked Its floods
And drowned her gentle eyes.
Her heart is an unfathomed spring
Whose depths all tears receive.
"She loves me best whene'er sing
The songs that make her grieve."
Her peaceful brow contains no trace
OF passion conflict striven.
purer flame has filled her face
The effluence of heaven.
For there her fancies often roam,
And there she fain would DO
What time her thoughts are Of the home
OF those she longs to sec.
hear them in her voice. in truth.
sec them in her eyes.
My love, she wears, with fadeless youth,
The grace of paradise.

debt
When Rauer threatened to take judg'
ment against Mrs. Carlson and to remove
the property in satisfaction OF his Dill,
suit for permanent injunction was entered
by Carlson, who alleged that he never au-
thorized his wife to mortgage the house
hold furniture or to borrow money Tor him
in any way.
Carlson pleaded the statute which ex-
empts such property from execution and
asks that Rauer be restrained from remov-
ing the property from his residence at S17
Bush street. and demands that the chattel
mortgage be Cancelled.
Testimony In regard to the transaction
will be heard next Wednesday, at which
time Rauer will try to prove that Carlson
