of all the strikers as missionaries to

trouble has been TO get them out to
big meetings on account of the sur

them did. They ask for an increase in

The DISREPUTEOF THE SENATE.

That portion of the community which
lives by speculation has been very as
Sidtr6ils in keeping tally of the senate
rial wrestlngs ana buifetings over the
sugar duty. Senators have had many
friends Of late days. The demaHd for
tips has been widespread and eafn-
est. Sudden risinGs which have occur
red in the market are not believed to-
have been mere Creatures of impulse"
but have been credited directly to the
Senate Chamber in the Washington
Capitol. or rather, to those mysterious
and we'll guarded rooms in which the
Senate Finance Committee have shaped
their policy and divided up the spoil.
The whole tableau, as future history
will present it. is one not creditable TO
the chosen law makers of the American
republic. and the tariff of 1897 will
wear during its existence as a statute
the unmistakable and ineradicable
mark of the beast t''-cOrruption.

Words for Use

An English authority estimates that
an illiterate day laborer in the rural
districts of Great Britain will use only
300 to 500 words; that farmer or me-
chanic able to read and write will EN-
ploy about 5000; that skilled work
man of more than average reading and
information will use 5000; that an ora
tor will employ from 5000 to 1900. 1t
is estimated that Shakespeare uses
about 10000 words. The scientific pub
locations contain from $4,000 to $4,000.
That people can transact all the busi-
ness of life with very few words is
shown by the fact that the latest die
tionaries are estimated to contain 25O,-
900 words, while in social life the num-
ber employed, even by the most highly
educated people, rarely exceeds 10000.

The Tyranny of Trusts.

Trusts are menace to the welfare
of the people. The Individual is being
deprived of his right to liberty and the
pursuit of happiness.
Not only are the people made subject
to the dictation of the trusts. but the
government is forced to recognize and
protect these banded robbers. The
laws of business are being repealed.
The small dealer can no longer buy in
the cheapest market; he must buy of
the trusts or be driven out of trade.
The day is fast approaching when
capital, integrity and capacity possess
ed by man Of Independent mind will
avail him nothing in the struggle for
existence. He will be compelled to
face financial death or bondage to the
trusts. Indeed, examples of this con-
ditiOn of affairs are to be found on
every hand to-day.

A peruSal of the history of railway
transportation during the last four years
shows us that this period las been the
most disastrous, from a financial stand
point, OF any other of the present decade.
Under the circumstances IT would almost
seem as though the further development
or improvement of railway facilities must
cease. Yet, strange to say, many notable
instances prove that the contrary is true.
In numerous instances, first class roads.
despite The hard times, and general busi-
ness depression, have made very decided
advances, not only in the improvement of
the material condition of the roadway it,
Self, Lit likewise the equipment and
service. And the public has been great
gamer by the public spiritedness of the
roads.
!. One of the most Notable cases of railway
development Is the Nickel Plate Road,
which seems 10 have forged right ahead
with its improvements and has exhibited
an unrelenting determination to give the
public the best possible facilities, in spite
of the hard times. And how well This
corporation has succeeded in its lauda BILE
efforts, the excellent condition of its sys-
TEN bears ample evidence. Yet the secret
OF this success is obvious: The people
have responded very generously TO gen.
eroiis effort TO give them the worth of
their money: That is all. The peoples
money has enabled the road 10 better its
facilities in every respect; thus the work
has been of mutual and reciprocal char
acter. The liberal patronage accorded
the road has brought handsome return
to the people i" the shape of improved
facilities for travel, yet at the same time
Mt lower rates.
And now; it seems; the Nickel Plate
Road is still engaged in further efforts 10
serve the people well. 1t has a high class
roadway 10 begin with; a most excellent
equipment to end with, and safe, fast,
and reliable service for the delectaton of
its patrons. All in all, it offers a most at
tractive menu to travellers bound east or
west in the shape of "a Peerless THO of
Fast Express Trains. ."-George A. Ben

Early Breakfasts.

The enthusiastic wheelman has an
idea that ride before breakfast is
very beneficial. A short ride may be,
but in nine cases out of ten it has just
the opposite from the desired effect.
According to experiments with the dy-
namometer, man is precisely at his
weakest when he turns out Of bed. The
muscular force is greatly increased by
breakfast, but it attains its highest
point after the midday meal. 1t then
sinks for few hours, and rises again
toward evening. The chief foes of
muscular force are overwork, and the
other extreme, idleness. Many of the
great workers of the world. if not all,
have been early risers, but early risings
ought always to be supplemented by
early breakfasting.
