to which our officials have given
illegal titles are the property Of

INGALLS, ON THE TRUSTS

Ex-senator Ingalls, writes a biting
letter to the New York Journal on the
question of trusts. He says the times
are ripe for a revolt Of the people just
as it was ripe for the overthrow of
slavery just before the civil war.
Slavery was SO strongly ~intrenched
that it bid defiance to public opinion
and dictated the policy O. the gov
eminent.
A Southern MAI openly decls red
that he would call the roll of his
slaves at the foot of Bunker Hill NOR
ument. This sort of talk was more
than the American people could bear
and a war followed which dienched
the country with its best blood, but
it obliterated slavery from the United
States.
The trusts have carrie1 things with
the same high hand and the iong-suf-
fering, patient people,, the masse who
dc not move in volume except when
stirred by some great provOcation and
grand resolve, are getting restless IN
der the burdens imp sed by these gi-
gantic combinations of capital and
are getting ready to take a hand in
the DETERMINATION Of these arrogant
meuace to the public good.
The claim made by the representa-
tives Of the trusts is that by com 5ining
they will be able to furnish goods and
manufactured products much cheaper
No one but a fool pure and simple can
be influenced by such bald falsehoods
The combination made in the past
year has advanced the prices of every
thing to the consumer.
A few weeks ago the philanthrop
lists who have monopolized the pro.
duction of window iglass suddenly
closed their works, discharged 10, 900
laboIers and rails d the price so pc:
cent for the benefit Of the poor. 1t
the past yea wire nails have beer
raised 0 per cent, win but Sigh
increase in the cost of production
The i1npudent talsehood that trust,
nonepolles cheaper products an,
benefit the consumer is disproved b,
the fact that the price of wall paper
rubber goods, food products, furnitur
fence wire, agricultural i'm plements
coal, glass and innumerable ethe
commodities controlled by these mon
sters have been arbitrarily increased
for nc cause except to pay dividend
on fictitious capital by methods tina
make larceny respectable. They ere
ate the sca.city which they make til
excuse for their extortions. The
destroy competition, which left FIRE
would equalize demand and supply
They deprive the young and poor {
equality of opportunity, which is tn
urderpinniug Of our political system
They degrade labor by impairing it
independence. They are public ene
mics, and their existence is a 1eproac
to civilization.
Ingalls, continues: eff any polit
cal economist, or interested share
holder, or party boss, or TIME oppo
tunist supposes that American Peep
do not understand this issue nd {
not intend to deal with these briganC
he is listening with creduality to tt

Joe Lee drove in with the first bale,
and the committee appointed to
make the award and examine the
cotton, decided that he was entit-
led to the premium and paid him
the money. The bale was sampled

ATLANTA LOST OUT
The Court House to Remain at Linden
The People Sore.

From telephone conversation car
ried on by parties in this city with
those of Atlanta, Texas, we learn
that Atlanta was defeated in the
court house removal election yes
terday.
We learn that the east end of the
county voted almost solid for At
lanta, Texas, for the county seat
while the west half of the county
voted for the court house to remain
at Linden. 1t is said the white men
living in the west half of the coun-
ty, accused the east half of buying
negroes votes, and the east half
SAYS the white men of the west half
rode around with ropes on their
saddles of convenient length for
hanging purposes, making threats
to string up any one who would
vote for the removal. There will be
be charges and counter charges
brought against each faction by
those concerned, and an enmity en-
gendered that will never down. The
legislature should provide a better
way of settling the court house re
moval cases that come up in the
state caused by changes in density
of population. Bowie county is
situated like. Atlanta, only little
more so and the court house is per-
ched in the geographical centre of
Crawhsh prairie, that is hard OF
access. In the above county, Tex
arkana and with precinct No, One
votes a majority vote of the whole
county and this precinct pays the
burden of taxes, yet the seat of
Justice is removed to a barren
prairie miles and miles away.
1t was intended, and the law
should so be construed, that the
county seat should be in the centre
of population to accommodate the
greater number over the lesser, and
if these conditions prevailed the
West side would have fine court
house and the people would be
saved many dollars they pay out in
going to and from the seat of JUS
tice.
We ary indeed sorry that Atlanta

AGE OF NIAGARA.
The Latest Estimate L. That the Great
Gorge Was Made $4,000
Years Ago.

Some interesting speculations con-
corning the age OF the Niagara gorge
are reported by Nature. This was The
subjeci Of paper by Prof. g., Fred
erick Wright. read III the Boston meet
ing Of the American association. The
late Dr.. James Hall early noted the
significant fact that "the outlet Of the
chasm below Nincar1 falls is scarcely
wider than elsewhere along it's course.
This is important evidence Of the late
date OF its origin and il has been used
in support Of the short estimates which
have been made concerning the length
Of time separating us from the glacial
period. 4 close examination made by
Prof. Wright last summer greatly
strengthens the force of the argument,
since he found that the disintegrating
forces tending TO enluvge the outlines
and give il V-shape are more rapid
than has been supposed. As the result
OF his Investigations he concludes that
a conservative estimate Of the rate Of
disintegration for the 70 feet Of Nj
agara shales supporting the Niagara
limestone would be one inch a year.
with a probable rate of two inches a
year. But at the lowest estimate no
more than $1,000 years would be re-
CURED for the enlargement Of the up

1000 feet on each side. which is very
largely in excess Of the actual amount
Of enlargement. Some Of the recent
estimates. therefore. which would
make the gorge from 10000 TO 10000
years old. are regarded as .extravagant.
According 10 Prof. Wright the age of
the gorge canDst be much more than
10000 years. and is probably consider
