feet systematizing of affairs, which,
however regarded, are an important
pat of our daily life, and therefore, es-
selItially social in their effect, is more
in the interest Of society, even though
1t be not recognized as such.
The development Of trusts in the in
dustrial world has resulted in a supe-
rior productive force, and to a certain
extent, brought order out of chaos.
They need neither defenders nor ex-
cuses They are above assault.
The campaign of empty verbiage di-
rected against them in some quarters
Is but political clap-trap and evidences
either lack of understanding or a de-
liberate misrepresentation of their ac-
tual relation to society. In reality,
these institutions represent the very
highest form of development attaiRable
under existing methods, and until
changing systems make still further
developments possible, it is certainly
for the interest of society that our in
situations be developed as completely
as may be, in anticipation of enlarged
future possibilities
Regarding as l do the interests of
any particular group to be of less inn
portance than the interests of society
at large, | therefore conclude that it is
logical and desirable that our financial
institutions should advance along the
same lines of progression as other quasi
public institutions and, while not CON
sldering the adoption of the present
plan as final, nor endorsing any special
detail therein, still regard the proposed
change more as good business pro-
position and to be commended

HEADED, FOR HERE.
The Great Singers Who Have Started for
This Country.

Nearly all the great singers of Europe
are now turningi their faces toward this
country, and the last of the month will
find them here. Mime. Media is in Paris,
where she is buying new costumes and
finishing her preparation to appear as
Mimi in PuccifPs La Boheme" Mar
celia Sembrichl who has sung in Berlin
and Leipsic, is ITO sail for New York on
Oct. 20 on the steamer that will bring
many of the other singers. Emma Calve
has returned to Paris from her coun-
try place and is ready to sing her new
role in THE QAeen of Sheba" and pos
sibly Valentine jim "The Huguenots,' in
which she has frequently been an
nounced and has not yet been heard.
1t was only few days before the date
Of 'L'Africaine that she decided not
to attempt Selil1a, and she may never
be heard here in the Meyerbeer opera
Emma EameS has returned from her
Italian villa for a brief stay in her
Paris home before her departure for
this country. Lillian Nordica has been
at the German baths, and is said to be.
quite restored from the indisposition
which interfered with the success. of her
appearance last spring in London. Err
nestine Schumann-H eink will sail for
new triumphs here on Oct. 90 and it is
a coincidence that the date is within a
few days of the anniversary of her
debut in Dresden twenty years ago. Her
Berlin appearances, which have just
come to a close, included only one per-
Torrance that was not triumphantly
successful. That was Carmen" The
critics did not care for her in that role
Those of the singers who do not come
on the Augusta Victoria, which sails on
Oct. 20, will come ON French steamer
sailing from Havre few days later
Not only do the women singers make
Paris temporary resting place on the
journey hither, but the men as well so
there. The two de ResEke's have ar
rived there from their estate in Poland
and are awaiting the decision of the i'm
portant question whether or not Nine.
Jean de ReszlSe shall come to New York
this winter. Her plans depend on the
health of her mother, who is i'll. MN.
Salignac, Bars, Saleza Albers, DE
Vries and Planeon are there, and so is
Ernst Van Dyek, who is to live per
manently in Paris now that he has end
ed his connection with the Imperial
Opera House at Vienna. The roster Of
the metropolitan company this year in
cludes seven Italians six Germans, one
Belgian, three Poles, one Russian, eight
French singers, one Australian, one
Holland, two English singers and eight
Americans. The Americans are quite as
much foreigners as the others. as they
live in Europe as q means Of making
themselves a part Of the world of great
singers which seems to be located
abroad, although the singers in the
Metropolitan Opera House appear five
times in this country TO every appear
ance they make in Europe. That is
quite as true of the American singers as
it is Of the foreigners.

sired Amount.

Rev. DR.. Lewis Secures Pledges tor De-
sired Amount.
Pilgrim Church is rejoicing, as the
desired amount toward the cancellation
of the church debt of 100000 has been
raised with an additional sum, and
the prospect is that the entire debt,
with another week of work, will be
halved.
Yesterday Rev. DR.. Lewis did not
read any report of the progress of the
payments for the cancellation of the
church debt for the week. He stated
however, that with the cIose of the
week he had passed the $4,000 line,
the amount originally set and there
fore all pledges will be binding. He
now hopes to complete the canvass of
the church during the coming week and
expects to present a complete report
next Sunday morning. He thinks that
at that time he will be able to an.
nounce that he has raised at least
100000, thus cutting the entire indebt-
edness of the church in two.
The district calls by Rev. DR.. Lewis
this week will be as follows:
Monday-Morning: Hollywood, Page,
Barbour, Decatur, Bancroft. After
noon: Canterbury, Woodward, Cam

Has a turn of fortune come to Spain?
There has been a pause in the peace ne
gotiations in Paris, because, it is said,
that in addition to Spains refusal to re-
move her disturbing rule from the
Philippines, she insists that in vacating
Cuba she shall take with her such
things as her cannon and the floating
dock at Havana, and that the United
States shall pay the Cuban debt.
Spain is not sparring for time with
out hope. Every keen observer of
American politics will perceive the rea-
son why. Tie party that has directed
the war in which Spain has been con-
quered, and whose president but yes
terday at st. Louis said that this coun-
try must not fail to gather the fruits
Of its victory" is engaged in political
campaign with a party which has iden-
titled itself with the policy of restoring
to Spain all that we have gained, even
to the hauling down of the stars and
stripes wherever they have been raised
on Spanish soil.
Victory has made the American cleo
tons of representatives in congress, of
legislatures and of governors in the
more important states. matters of in
ternational concern. Every European
enemy or rival of this country, with
Spain of course at the front, is praying
that the next congress of the American
Union shall be democratic, and partic-
ularly that the democrats shall defeat
the republicans in the imperial state of
New York.
II the republicans of whatever politi-
cal antecedents don't shake off all APP

party with the vigor of earnestness, the
fruits of victory over Spain will be

ApNIRAL DEWEY.

The Atlanta Constitution recommends
that Secretary John D. Long, with the
approval of the president, petition con-
gress at its coming session that Rear
Admiral Dewey be made full admiral
instead of vice admiral, as it is said
he intends to do. The Georgia paper
says that the hero of Manila Bay de-
serves to rank with Farragut and Por-
ter, and the country will readily en-
dorse the opinion. There has been no
greater achievement in the annals of
the United States navy than Dewey's
victories both against the naval and
land defences of Spain in the Philippine
Islands, but these alone are not his
record. He managed the difficult cues
tions presented by these victories with
diplomacy and skill, and is entitled to
every honor that the country can be-
stow upon him. The people of the
country have done all they could for
him. They have enshrined him as the
most popular hero of the day, and ii
only remains for congress to set the
seal of its approval upon his brow. The
grade of admiral is not too big for him,
and he should have it. Dewey not only
begun the war. but he ended it, and
that without the loss Of a ship or man
in battle. He gave a new world to
the United States, whether this govern
ment wants to accept it or not, and his
services should be recognized in the
most fitting manner. The way to do
it is to make him fun admiral. Let
the grade be revived after it's 2S years
of oblivion, and introduce the Green
Mountain fighter to the world as Adj
miral George Dewey, U. S. N.

Agitation of the divorce question in
the Episcopal convention brings out the
announcement that Chicago will this
year break the record, made last year,
Of 1900 divorces granted. The real suG-
prise is that 300 other petitions for
divorce failed. Chicago still leads the
country in the divorce industry, its
nearest competitor being Denver, Col,
with 1902 granted. San Francisco comes
along in third place with $50. Cleve-
land, Ohio. is poor fourth, with 1872,
closely followed by Philadelphia at 377,
and, dreadful to tell, by Boston and
New York, with 1874 each. These fig
ures refer only to the cities named, not
to the respective states. The total num-
Der of divorces granted in Nassachu-
sets, be it noted, is less than the num-
Der granted either in Chicago or Den
YER Hence ic is that the North Dakota
record does not appear though two
cities in that state make up a total OF
S25 divorces granted in a year 1t is
proper to add that very many of the
applicants for divorce in the western
courts hail from eastern states.

The charges made by Maj. Seaman,
surgeon Of the LIST United States volun-
teer engineers, have been effectually
wiped out both by his feeble testimony
before the investigating board, and by
the publication of his receipt for ginger
ale, whiskey, soup, jellies, clam broth,
crackers and medicines obtained before
the OLDHAM sailed. With all the gen
uine causes of complaint, there has
been also some unconscionable lying in
connection with the charges of mal-ad-
n1inistration in the army. To this ex-
tent the yellow press and other sensa-
tion mongers have damaged the cause
Of reform.
