SEVERAL great commercial en-
terprises in London have consoli-
dated and organized a bank with a
combined capital of $12, 100000
and deposits aggregating $140,-
100000. The whole world seems
to have gone wild on forming
trusts and combines. What the
ultimate result will be no one can
foretell, but there is a growing be-
lief among those who give most
thought to the subject that a spe-
cies of socialism will grow out of
it, and that the corporations of
every SORT, which are growing
larger and more powerful every
year, must be mnde subject, more
and more, to state control. Men
who would resent being called So
cialists recognize the necessity of
stricter governmental regulations
for these expanding industrial and
commercial companies. The gov
ernment must take hold of them
with an iron grasp and control
them, or in time they will place
the iron heel and mailed hand on
the government. We have no pa
tieLce for the political agitators
and radical reformers who would
confscate property; but we do ad-
vocate the control of all corporate
powers by law. Combines and
trusts, of every species and char
acter, public and private, should
not be tolerated. They should be
crushed. But the cooperation Of
men and capital in the building of
railroads, establishing banks and
the prosecution of any other le-
gitimate undertaking should be
encouraged, but controlled and
regulated, by law. 1t is to the in
terest, welfare, peace and prosper
ity of the whole country that this
be done.

THE most thoughtful and in
telligent writers on farming recon-
mend diversifcation of crops and
small farms with high cultivation
as cure for the sad but universal
evils of heavy taxation, heavier
mortgages and absence of general
agricultural prosperity. 1t is read
lily admitted that most farmers try
to cultivate too much land, there
by oyercropping themselves and
working themselves half to death
for no good. They do not cultivate
their lands as they shonld, because
they can't, and they depend too
much upon one crop. Observation
has taught US that the most sue
cessfuI farmer is the man who does
not depend on any one crop. He
diversifies his crop. He plants
some corn, some cotton, some
wheat, some oats, some cane, some
sweet and Irish potatoes and al
ways has a good garden and or
chard. He has COWS, hogs and
chickens and one or two brood
mares besides his work mules. He
raises a young mule or two every
year, few calves and pigs, and
sells some chickens and butter, and
has plenty of good meat and lard
for home consumption. If his
wheat and oats fail, he has some
cotton and cane and potatoes, etc.
If his cotton fails, he has corn and
wheat and oats. 1t rarely Oc-
ours that all crops are failures.
But if a man overcrops himself
with corn and cotton he has no
time to feed horses, COWS and hogs
and care for chickens and work his
garden. Take a small piece of
ground, 25 to 40 acres, and work
it we'll and have these other things
about you; and you will make
more, live happier and longer.

RECENTLY the st. Louis Repub-
lie published some remarkable cot
ton statistics, which are of special
interest at this time. These sta
tistics show that the remarkable
increase in the production since
1872 has only been equalled by
the fall in its price and the CORES
ponding decrease in the price Of
cotton goods. In 1872 the cotton
production was n / 1884, ,OS4 ,494
pounds, which sold for an average
price of 22.19 cents pound. The
average price of cotton cloth goods
at that time was 7.S8 cents per
yard. Year, by year, there is q
steady increase in cotton produc-
tion and a steady decline in price,
with a corresponding decline in
cotton cloth goods. In 1898 the
cotton crop is estimated to be
5,667, ,372,0 ,051 pounds, which is
selling for an aver age price of 6.23
cents. Cotton cloth prints are sell
ing for 2.17 cents per yard. Thus
the production of 1898 is more
than four times that of 1872, and
the average price is but a little
more than one-fourth that of the
same year, while the price of cot
ton goods has declined with the
price of cotton. These figures,
when dispassionately considered,
afford food for thought:

at Liverpool were heavy to-day,
and reached $4,000, bales. This
indicated very gratifying situa-
ton, but the effect on our market
was not noticeable. and our open
ing for futures was unchanged.
The early accounts were favorable
for the weather, as the absence of
frost is now conceded. Futures at
Liverpool started IL lower, while
spots were unchanged at 3 3-32.
The weather map was eagerly
scanned, and, while several towns
claimed light or heavy frost, the
temperature was so far above the
freezing point that. bears took
fresh courage and bid the market
down 2 to 3 points this morning
and traders were rather dlscour-
aged on the business done. Clos

News of the fighting at Manila, on
the other side OF the earth, says the
New York Sun, travelled 14,311 niles,
over dozen or more c.bles and three
or more overlan wiz, before it reaches
New York. Very few persons, anon 6
the thousands who watch the bulletin
boards these days, stop to think, when
a Manila Dispatch is posted, that the
message was repea'el over and ever
again, as it was sssent from cable Office
to cable office, ia the long journey from
the Philippine port to the American
shore. 1t travelled across seas, CULTS,
bays, straits, mountains, valleys and

de- radel condition OF women.

When Miss Leila Hamilton returned
to the old Office On State street, she
was discovered to be as charming and
girlish as ever, and it was also noticed
that certain callers whom she had been
wont to receive came no more.
1t was farther chronicled that there
were other things about Mss Hamil-
ton which were new and strange
When the postman came and a letter
was handed to her-an event OF three.
or four times a Week.-Mrs. Hamilton
would turn q little pale and quickly
hide it in her waist.

explanation when Miss Hamilton came

her engagement finger, and the yener-
able senior partner received her resig-
nation to take effect Boston

A wAUwINET woOING;

DllsS Leila ddmlltOn WAS the cnlel
stenographer in the banking Office OF
Harrison Bro, State street, Boston.
She directed the feeding of six other
typewritipg machines, and she kept her
subordinates busy from morning until
afternoon.
Miss Hamilton was not only invalu a-
bic to her employers. She was also OF
great use to her sex, in whose emanci-
patton she was most vitality concerned.
Miss Hamilton was, in fact, a fair
specimen Of the "new woman" Her
great ampition was to see woman, 10
the full possession Of the ballot, rising
on great pillows Of reform until all the
sins Of wicked man were swept away
in one great tidal wave Of femme votes.
But Miss Hamilton was very at
tractiye young woman. She possessed
large and lustrous blue eyes, which
looked steadily and straight into the
eyes OF others and gave birth to\new
sensations 10 the hearts OF the wicked
men.
In short, Miss Hamilton had all the
appearance Of being apretty, happy,
guilelees chorus girl while she was at
heart combination bf Miss Susan B,
Anthony and DR.. Mary Walker.
This year, when my summer vaca-
ton comes" she told one Of her col.
leagues. II am going somewhere where
l can rest and where I won't be trou-
bled by men. I have discovered an
ideal place at Wauwinet, on Nantucket.
It's little neck of land, and on one
side is the surf and on the other the
still water. It is out of tho terrible
rnsh, and there are great many wo-
men there. and as for as I know not
one single man. If that is not para
disc, do not know what is"
Thus it happened that Miss Hamil-
ton landed at Wauwinet, where she
peacefully established herself for three
weeks of uninterrupted rest Miss
Hamil Jon was greeted by little bevy
of woman who wore spectacles, had
little red GASES at the ends of their
noses and were plain in their dress and
in general strict in their appearance.
1--WE are SO glad you have come"
they exclaimed in q chorus, "and it il
SO nice to have one 80 young and CIR
lish looking interested in the great
cause'
Mi Hamilton had made only one
mis- axe in the catalogue OF tina advan-
tages of Wauwinet. As it happened
there was fine old mansion, which
had been recently purchased by party
Of bachelors from New York city
Here they had established themselves
for theiI first season. Thus it hap
pened that there were really 20 single
men instead of none at all when Miss
Hamilton made her first appearance.
Miss Hamilton rose early after fine
nights rest. She enjoyed with equal
zest her breakfast. Then she started
out for a ramble along the beach. She
looked down toward 'Sconset, saw the
soaring tower of Sankaty light and
trudged toward it as a magnet draws
its iron.
This brought her past the clubhouse
where, all unknown,sh became an OBJ
ject OF great interest.
"Gad, Charlie, just look there
called Billy Hills from the reading
room, "asd don't go too near the win
dow or you will scare her! But, Jove,
isn't she rare bird for Wauwinet?
She is the first good looking girl /
ha ve seen since we arrived"
"Guess Ill take little stroll" qui-
oily observed Davy Holmes. "Tbink
I need o little exercise"
