Trusts Scare Senator WaShburn.

Senator w. D. Washburn, of the Pillsbury-
Washburn Co., recently returned to Minueapo-
lis from visit to New York. One of the local
papers gives his opinion of the trust mania
now prevailing in the East, and it comedies so
exactly with the views of the Northwestern
Miller that we are glad to quote it, as follows:
He (Senator Washburn) has come back pro-
foundly impressed with feeling that the rush
towards consolidation in the industrial world
means ultimate ruin. He declares that the
amalgamation tendency, with its millions for
the promoters, its billions of watered stock, its
enormously exaggerated statements of what can
be effected by consultations, has degenerated
into absolute insanity. No good can come Of
it. 1t is only question of time wnen the col
lapse will come. In the wreck and storm, the
promoters and those who have sold out to the
consultations will escape with their easily-made
millions, but the thousands of people who are
now falling over each other to subscribe to the
stock OF these industrial mammoths will be
ruined and the country will share their loss.
1t is shame that such financial lunacy should
be tolerated and encouraged by level-headed
men just at this time, when the country is be-
coming prosperous once more. Such speculat-
i've extravagances can have but one outcome-a
reaction-which will come much sooner than is
thought tor" -Northwestern Miller.

ED LITTLE A HERO.

From letters from the Kansas boys IN Manila
we learn that after the fall of Malolos, General
Funston went to the hospital for few days to
have an operation performed for an abcess when
had formed about one of his Cuban wounds.
For four days, Lieutenant Colonel Little com
handed the regiment, and he did 1t fearlessly
and well.-Kansas City Journal
disc, edit Lieutenant Colonel Little. The fellow
who wrote the above item has not seen IN any
Of the letters from Manila that AFTER the Il, tau
Of Malolos, Funston went to the hospital. Inc
fact is. BEFORE the battle at Malolos, funston
oot sick leave and went to hospital, and Little 1T,
Commanded the regiment in that fight. III. TINS

Further proof is contained in an account OF the
hattie which was published in Freedom, paper
nuhlished at Manila. The editor was on the
Scene of battle (behind tree, he says)' and
sou what was done. He speaks in the most
o1ow,no terms of Lieutenant-Colonel Littie's
s Sv and heroic acts-and no other officer
was mentioned simply because Little WAS IN
cowMANp. He will never receive justice at
the hands of the Republicans, however.

THERE is but little danger of the final tri
umph of imperialism in America. rebellion
has broken out among the faithful at home that
frightens the president more than half doz-
en- rebelions abroad, and he is already looking
for soft place on which to fall. The German
Republicans have revolted and are swearing
vengeance against the expansion ideas of this
corrupt and wicked administration. They say
if the doctrine of imperialism is persisted in,
that they will desert the grand old party.
Without the German vote, Mckinley could
hardly carry a state in the Union. He will not
lose that vote if he can help it. He will,
therefore, begin to temporize and crawhsh.
He will deny that he Intends to obtain territory
by conquest or spread the gospel with the
sword. He will claim that lie is just getting
good ready to let go. His convention next
year will declare for the independence of the
Philippines, not because it wants to, but be-
cause if it does not the party faces certain
DEATH The tide against impt rialisn is too
strong to be stemmed by a weak man like Nc
Kinley. He will never move an oar against
the current of public opinion. He will put an
extinguisher on his blatant followers and viii
shout louder than anybody for liberty on all the
continents and selfgovernment in all the isles
of the sea. The Dutch have taken Holland,
and have also scared Mckinney. God bless the
Dutch. -Nonconfornist.

SAMPLE OF STANLEY'S WORK.

w. Eugene Stanley, by a system of political
hocus-pocus that ought to. bring the blush OF
shame to even Quay, Hanna or Croker, stole
two members of the board of regents of the
State Agricultural College, thus giving the Re-
publicans a majority of the board and control
of the college.
Before this high-handed outrage was perpe-
trated, the old board had invited COL VIM. ].
Bryan to deliver the address at commencement,
June Sth. Colonel Bryan had accepted the in
vitation, and all decent, far-minded citizens,
without regard to party, felt like congratuating
the college on being SO fortunate as to secure,
not only one of the abest speakers, but one OF
the most popular and noted men of the nation.
One of the first official acts of this new board
was the cancellation of the arrangement that
had been made with Colonel Bryan. This was
done against the earnest protest of Mrs. St.
John and Carl Vrooman, the only two remain
ing members of the old board.
The presence of man like Colonel Bryan
would be all honor to any college, and the re-
pudiaton of the work of the old board by re-
fusing to have him at college commencement
was one of the meanest, most contemplate,
small, sneaking pieces of dirty politics that
even the Republican party was ever guilty of.
But this is just the beginning of long line
of dirty work of SANKEY'S canned committee
that will make the college stink with political
corruption before it can be wrenched from the
clutches OF its despoilers.
Stanley is the fourth successive one-term
governor.

eighty Filipnos come to Wiclata and repeat
the swimming act in the Arkansas river, as one

NO BOOM in OURS.

II is not the "boomer" that has made Kan

alone, will do all that can be done to place
Kansas in the light of one of the first states IN
the Union.
In the face of popular belief to the contrary
we do not believe there is anything in the sur
roundings to place Kansas above other stateS'
financially, and we are led to believe that the
oboomern is againat his nefarious work.
Among other things, we are told that mort
pages are being paid off at rate so wonderful

history of the human race. From statement
in the Industrialist for May, we learn that Riley

This statement is accurate. And what II all
the counties in the state have increased their
debts in the same ratio? If it is possible that'
