TRUSTS AND PROSPERITY
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DECEIVED
~ BY APPEARANCES.
Tho Years OF Tho Private Trusta For
The Unequal distribution of Wealth
Arc Numbered And Public Owner
ship Ia Advancing

The trusts formed In 1893 represent
ed over six billion dollars. II was q
year Of unparalleled prosperity for tho
trusts. Bradstreet and Dunn mistools
this for prosperity Of the masses. They
reported great prosperity among the
people, These two great commercial
agencies are Wall street institutions.
Their home and place Of business Is
there. Their associations and envir-
onments are there. The information
coming to these agencies this week Is
all sifted through the capltalistic
sieve. When they announce that the
country is prosperous II simply means
that that small section Of the country
known as Wall street, or more accur-
ately speaking, the capitalistic classes
OF the East are prosperous. 1t means
that they have formed such new com
binations or trusts as will secure to
these few milionaircs on increased
percentage of the fruits OF labor. 1t
means that the schemers take more
and labor gets less of the worlds pro-
ducts, and this is what Dradstreet and
Dunn call increasing prosperity.
This Is the boast Of the trust con.
trolled administration. This is the
cruel and wicked misrepresentation
repeated in the columns of every old
party daily, and this is believed by
struggling millions who have not three
meals in sight as an incentive to battle
for Tread and vote again the old-party
ticket.
Through all this Misrepresentation,
this ignorance, this battling for exist
ence, the student Of economics sees no
CLEAN Of hope.
One feature of all these trusts gives
encouragement to plod yet another
day. The stockholders in all these
trusts as compared with our 75,OOO,0O
population, are but handful Of men.
Il Tiped from the face Of the earth, they
would never be missed. The births Of
single day in the United States
would make their number good.
Scarcely one Of them ever performs
any part OF the autual labor of produc.
ton. They are in no wise essential to
the community as factors in produc-
tion. Their numbers are 30 small that
Us consumers they do not appreciably
feet the market of the commercial
world. They are middlemen, toll
gatherers, leeches, parasites on the
body polite, and hold-up artists be-
yond the pale Of law, above and supe-
rior to political parties, to courts, to
congress and subordinate to their own
selfieh ends the life of the republic.
The first work of trust is to consoli-
date under one management all the in
dustries In the country of the same
kind. The next step is the consolida-
ton OF two or more trusts controlling
kindred enterprises, and the final step
will be the consolidation of all trusts
in the great trust Of trusts. At the
rapid progress now being made in the
process Of trust consolidation the
worlds toilers may well take new
courage. The years Of private trusts
for the unequal distribution of wealth
are numbered. When the final step
shall have been taken by the consoli-
dation OF controlling majority of cap
talists into one gigantic trust of trusts

"An Earthly PARADISE"

Judge Collins has received a letter
from Lieut.. Howard, says the Journal
Press, from which we are permitted to
make the following extract, which will
be of interest to his many Stearns
county friends:
1--WE had brisk action the other
day at Maraquina, and had the
pleasure of being in warm part of it
five men killed, fourteen men and
one officer wounded. like it here SO
far-for the country is an earthly
paradise, far too good for the people
who live in it. Our lines are not far
from Manila and our force as yet too
weak to get very far away. The war
must last for at least sixt months
more likely for a year, and perhaps
longer. With more men we can end
it more quickly. =

1t has been an open secret for
some time past that the Hansen
building on Main.st., would be oc-
cupied with stock of boots and
shoes, but the details have been
withheld until now, and certainly
Sank Centre will have occasion to
be proud of what is in preparation.
jacob Bros. &. Mack have carried
a limited stock of high grade
shoes for men for a number of
years, and it is their purpose to
abandon this branch of business,
and devote their entire space to.
their other lines. They are, how
ever, to expand, rather than con-
tract their interest in the shoe
trade, and to that end a company
has been formed, consisting of ia
cobi Bros. & Mack, Hans Hansen
and Eugeue A. Richards, under
the title Of the Model Shoe Co., to
occupy the handsome Hansen
building within ten days with the
finest and most comprehensive
stock of shoes ever offered in this
city las fine as the finest in St.
Paul or Minneapolis.
Mr.. Richards, who has had an
experience of fifteen years with
the jacob firm, will be its active
manager, with Rudolph Hansen to
assist him and certainly the pub
lie may rest assured of satisfactory
personal service in dealing with
the new company.
But courteous treatment will be
a minor attraction. The stock has
been selected with direct reference
to meeting the most exacting de-
mands for any style and grade of
shoe required. Ladies, misses. men,
youths and children will be provid-
ed with the best the market affords
and, of course, all the popular
and cheaper grades will be kept in
abundant stock.
One feature however has been
looked after with peculiar pains
taking care, -a'line ofsladies shoes,
of the finest material and work.

from A to ZEE and F. 1t will not

ton.
The new store will be made att
tractive with handsome fixtures and
furniture. and the public generally
will be made cordially welcome

opening will be announced in due
time.

Danbury Oct. 3.-The Danbury fair opened to-day in highly successful manner. Though the day was uncom- fortably cold there was an attendance of 2,500, which is but trifle less than the usual opening day attendance. The fair is fully as attractive as ever, and none of the features which have made the "Danbury fair famous are lack ing. The poultry exhibit contains 1,20O entries The dog show likewise sur passes in numbers and quality any of the dog shows given here in recent years. There is an unusually large ex- hbit in every other department. The bicycle races. which are generally held on the opening day, were done away with this year and three horse racing events were held. Though only half mile heats were raced the events were quite interesting. The trotting events proper will commence tomorrow.

TIME SERVICE GRADING.
Again Adopted by the Board of POli'
 Commissioners.

Again Adopted by the Board of Police Commissioners.
 | At the meeting of the board of police commissioners last night it was voted to re-establish in the department the sys- I tenn of time service grading followed up l to the time of the regarding of the members of the force little more than l year ago. At the time of the regrad l ing, man after having served in the 1 department for three years and faith i fully performed his duty was advanced l through series of time service promo ! ton to the highest grade, A, at the 1 end of the three years When the re- grading was put into effect year ago l last August, number of men were dropped from grade A to lower grades and the plan of promotion for especial ly meritorious service only was adopt ed, Last night two resolutions, each providing for the re-establlshment of the old time service grading, were in troduced one by Commissioner Ian
 ders and the other by Commissioner Ullman. The old system will go into effect on January l. 1900, and at that time all men who have been reduced in grade except for misconduct will be
 reinstated and time grading will date
 from that time.
 A. N. Farnham and A. T. Graham of
 Westville appeared before the police
 board last night and asked that police
 signal box be placed in Westvlle. As
 the taxpayers of the Westville do not
 pay city taxes the request could not
 be granted, but the matter was taken
 under advisement It has been sug-
 gested that a police signal box could
 be placed near the city line to accom-
 modate the Westvlle people, but the
 police board took no action last night.
 The finance committee reported to the
 board the estimates of the money need
 ed for the department for next year,
 but as the reverting to the old system
 of grading will increase somewhat the
 salary account of the department, the
 estimates were referred back to the
 committee to revise and report at special meeting to be held October 10 at p. m. The superintendent in his monthly report highly commended Pa trolmen Curren and Philip Smith and Detectives McGrath and Daly for es- pecially meritorious work during the past month. The report was referred
 to the committee on efficiency which will probably recommend honorable mention for the men named above. All the commissioners were present at last nights meeting except President Mix,
