A COMBINE, NOT A TRUST.
The Wire Nail Companies Have Hit on n
New Schema


CHICAGO, March H. The plan of the
larger wire nail companies in the
country TO form a trust has been aban-
doned, and instead of a great combine
several of the concerns which were
the leaders Ia the movement to form
trust have decided to form a combina-
tion Of their own and to leave the
others on the outside.
The failure of the plan to form a
trust, which should include all tho
large concerns of the country, was
due to the fact that several of the
companies which were to have become
members OF the trust, could not show
a volume OF business sufficient TO
justify the promoters of the trust in
paying the price demanded.

And now that the free homes bill
is defeated, memory recalls the inso-
lent threat OF Speaker Reed at Wichita
during the last congressional cam
pAign.
Defeat Dennis Flynn and / shall
see that the people Of Oklahoma do
not get free homes through the next
congress, - said Reed substantially.
Flynn was defeated, overwhelm.
ingiy showed under and the free homes
bill has been defeated Reeds threat
has prevailed. What do the Republi.
lns-the Republican homesteaders Of
oklahoms-think OF the matter?
will they supinely bow TO the die
tates OF Car Reed, dismiss the damna-
BILE Repu blican conspiracy as a grave
mistake and still cling tenaciously to
the violated platform Of the Republi-
! can party?
Ia the event Of the nomination for
congress OF Republican, who Is fool
hardy enough to make an issue of the
free homes bill, will they tender him
warm support?
In the face Of the official proceedings
Of the Congressional Record, which
has recorded the votes Of the Republi-
cans opposed to free homes, among
whom are Flynn's wArmest political
and personal friends, will they de-
clare that Flynn and Grimes were
layal TO their interests and worked
and fought increasingly for the passage
OF the neasure9 Time will tell. THE
LEADER addresses it's remarks to Re
publican homesteaders; to the men
who supported Flynn twice in the
hope that the burdens they have been
carrying would be lifted.
To Democrats and Populists these
words are not directed. The defeat OF
this idolized measure has cemented the
Democrats and Populists more closely
than ever; all factions bave been dissi
pated; and the free silver forces OF the
territory now have but one object il
life-to precipitate the utter demoli
tion Of Republican rottenness, corrup
tion aud rascAlity.
VIII the Republican homesteaderi
OF Oklahoma assist the Democrats anc
Populists TO bring about this result?
