 There was in front If the factory one of those American signs which one meets everywhere: No help needed. l could imagine how poor devil would feel who had tramped for days looking for work only to be confronted at every factory by that heartless sign. 1 told our boys to take 1t down. thought we could at least show appli- cants the courtesy of civil word, even if we hadn't work for them all Ny ideas have grown from just such homely observations as these. As at present constituted our system may be called the great American brother hood limited Now what I want to do is 10 strike off that last word, and make it simply the great American brotherhood. That embraces the sum of all my ideas

LELAND STANFORD. IR.

The real founder of Stanford university, at Palo Alto, on which the Stanford millions have been lavished, was, a correspondent writes, ca boy of fourteen, a frail, delicate, thoughtful lad, who, conscious, perhaps, that his earth ly life was short, but eternity long, suggested to his parents that their vast wealth should be used for building up characters and making true men and women who by education should enrich the world. Almost his last words to his par ents, as they sat by his side in a foreign land watching the fading away of the dear one, was: Live for humanity's sakc, to feed the poor, to clothe the nakedr Kansas City Journal.
 Later reports state that Mrs. Stanford has given all of her property, except the house and lot she and her husband occupied early iii life, to the university, in addition to the $11, 1000, 900 endow- ment previously given. The same report also states that she con- templates eventually giving the house and lot, thereby demonstrat- lng, in her case, the proposition made by Andrew Carnagie to the effect that he did not want to die rich.

The friends of good government and those who admire honest statesmanship will mourn the death of Hon. Richard Bland of Missouri. He was truly man of the people, one who had honest convictions and stood by them at all times and in all places. Throughout his long service in public he held the confidence and esteem of his associates, and the love and respect of his neighbors, who feel his loss most kecnly. As a champion of the cause of silver MT. Bland made a worldwide reputation, and as such he will be remembered.

ANOTHER STRAW.

Special to the St. Louis Republic.
 Paris, Tex. .--president E. H. R. Green of the Texas Midland railroad arrived in town from St. Louis this afternoon and remained here over night. In view of the persistent rumors that have been circulated in reference to extensions of the Midland from this city to Mena, Ark. and from Ennis to Waco at the other end of the line, his visit here is of especial interest.
 When asked about the extensions, he said both had been contempt ated for some time. and while he did not say they would be made immediately, he left the impression that the outlook was very favorable for building in a northeasterly direction from this city. and in d southwesterly direction from Ennis.

 We are sure to have our annual August 19 out, and will all be glad to have the Nebraska friends here at that time and show them lively town and good country to live in.

WHY MISS GOULD IS ESTEEMED

When the great American public likes man or woman it likes them excessively. 1t likes Miss Helen Gould. It likes her with an cffusivcness that would have astonished her not over popular father. No doubt she is deserving of all the tributes that have been paid her. She has given both wealth and personal effort in numerous good causes. This is an unusual combination in the class to which Miss Gould's estate admits her and on this account it is all tho more appreciated. - Cleveland Plain Dealer.

THE GOLDEN RULE.

The new mayor of Toledo, O., elected as an Independent Re publican, is being talked about now as much as ''Potato" Pingree as mayor of Detroit, Mich, used to be. Jones ran for mayor last spring on a socialistic platform, was elected by an overwhelming majority and is now introducing scientific socialism into the govern ment of his clty. In a published account of thls man we found the following:
 When Mr. Jones opened his factory in Toledo he found a long set of rules, the punishment for violation of which was instant dismissal pasted on the walls. They had been put there by the former owners. He tore it down and pasted up this one rule;
 "'Do unto others even as you would have them do unto you
 .'That was sign, said he, that we had agreed to quit stealing and that we would have fair deal in that factory
 ""Why, was fifty years old before I had any idea of becoming teacher of the people. Until five years ago was in the oil fields. Then l moved into Toledo and purchased one of those deserted factories that may be found all over this broad land. And it had been one that was subsidized by the city, too. under the present out rageous system. I had read Bellamy's Looking Backward but I can't re member that 1t made any impression upon my mind.
 "'When we were preparing to open our factory, the first thing that im- pressed me was the crowd of nen that swooped down upon us asking for work. They would come hat in hand.

riAyoR JoNEs ON TRUSTS.

lfA fOtC IONk.J OiN tNOD o.
 Men who have studied the problem are beginning to realize that the formation of industrial trusts and combinations are not necessarily an evil, being an cvo- lutionary process which will eventually restore harmony be tween labor and capital and es- tablish a moro satisfactory and just system for the production and distribution of wealth. To smash the trusts" and return to, or con tinue the old system of compc- tition will not be satisfactory nor help to settle the conflict being waged between labor and capital. To do this the people must learn to apply trust principles in q purely scientific manner to all their business and productive enterprises as is now being done in many cities where the public utilities are operated by the mum cipaIities for the profit or benefit of the people.
 Mayor Jones of Toledo, O., whom we have mentioned before, evidently clearly understands this as shown by the following quo tations from q reported interview in which he is reported to have said:
 ''I believe in the trusts as a stepping stone to better things. This is an age of concentration of labor-saving, and the trusts are merely educating the people in rough way 10 the point where they will see their opportunities. The trust is abor-saving machine. For the life of me I can't see any difference between the laborsaving machine made of wood and iron and the labor-saving machine made of men-an association of men working to the same end. The trusts are teach ing the people lessons in economy of production and economy of labor. If you are going to legislate against the laborsaving machine made of men, otherwise called the trust, why not legislate against the labor-savlng ma chine made of iron and wood?
 ''It won't do to talk of smashing the trust. Such campaign is in the nature of q iminal retrogression. Tbe depart ment store is a trust. Smash it aud you have the single line dealer Why not go farther and smash him and give us peddlers. No, no, you can't separate these great aggregations into their original parts. We would not know how to live under such system.
 'Of course you can't do everything in a bound. It would be useless to at tempt any rapid revolution. The people must be educated up to the idea, and when they reach that point and make their demands, they will get what they want. Our system Is built 1 on the most damnable waste of labor There are idle men everywhere. Those who have work, work too much.
 II would take the trusts for the people. Why should not the people ! possess them? There is no thrust. no the people. The people --the com. munity-have made it possible. It is theirs Good God! I should think wooden man could see that.n

ALMOST A SEALED BOOK.

The activity that follows the advent of railroads was never more manifest than in the regions traversed by the roads which have made their advent into the west ern part of the state during the past two years. The Arkansas Central, the Pee Gee and the Choctaw have opened up regions which heretofore have been almost a sealed book. whose resources have been hidden from the world, and which appeared almost as a blank page in the history of pro- gress. Wherever the iron rails run development follows and the con dition of the people is bettered. Push the railroads, and push us many of them as possible .-Ft. Smith Elevator.

According to the sizing up of the situation by the trusts, the chief reason why the poor man and the man of moderate means were placed on earth was to pro- ducc large dividends on the watered stock of the trusts, so as to verify the statement of the Ar kansas philosopher: "Them as has, gifts.

The Old Site Will be Used.

Our little neighbor, Parkersburg, will
use the present location of her court
house to erect a new one. Their new
structure will be one which the lawma-
ker's over there think is quite capable
of accommodating their business and
will cost not over 5000. In speaking
of the plan for the new building the
Sentinel says
The design represents a building
104xS2 feet. The ground floor is on a
level with the sidewalk on Market
streets and contains two Justices offices
with vaults for records, and hall for
holding institutes, and offices for as
SCISSOR and surveyor. There is an en-
trance to the building through this
floor and the other entrances are on
the other sides and front.
The first story on the left contains a
general and private office for the coun-
ty clerk, county court room and two
private offices for the commissioners.
On the right are the circuit courts
general and private offices and vault,
sheriff's general and private Office, pro-
secutors general and private office.
On the second floor to the left is the
Circuit court room and judges office
and witness rooms. On the right is
the Criminal Court room and judges
office. The court rooms are % feet
high.
On the Market street front are the
judges and witness rooms.
All offices, jury and witness rooms
are provided with toilet rooms.
Tie style of the exterior is Roman
esque and the treatment is entirely diff
ferent from the style of either of the
other designs heretofore submitted by
Mr.. Albright. He informs the Sentinel
that the building contemplated in
these plans can be erected at a cost of
$4,000.
