BRYANT CAUGHT THEM.

Harold Godw grandson of William
Cullen Bryant, is the owner of Cedar
mere, the poets old home on Long

picturesque rustic bridge. Some
members of the household, so the
story goes, were recently approached
by au old man who wanted to know il
that was Bry ants home.

"Well, ther els rustic bridge around
here 1 want to walk over, and trout
stream [ want to fish in," he ad ded.
He was told that he would be allowed
tinued, "my father used to ish here
with Bryant, and he said that those
trout were what made the old man
famous. If he had good catch he'd
get enough ideas to write for q month
and if he didn't-well, he'd just scratch,
his head and walk that rustic bridge
all night, and for many nights, and not
do a thing"
sAnd you come here for inspiration,
I suppose?'' said some one.
"Well, yes" was the hesitating re-
ply; "I've come to trout for a few
lines. 1 don't expect to get a Than

it'll be worth while.''
Later in the day the old man was
seen walking silently by the house

himself: ''I've come a long ways to

it, and 1 guessed that Bryant caught

1T did seem like a shame yesterday
to have the Dig yacht race declared off

heavy fog, while in Ell Paso real estate
was changing hands in large blocks as

Ell Paso always has plenty of wind to
blow In on such an occasion, and it is
said that as soon as the internatio al

be sailed on the lake that will be form

aud multitudes of sport loving tourists.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY's reception

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY'S reception
at the various towns along his route to
Chicago was marked in every case by
q genuine good will and hearty friend
illness that, while they have nothing of
the spectacular, are doubly grateful to
q great man. TIL ere was tremendous
enthusiasm wherever he appeared, and
public demonstrations that left no
doubt as to his absolutely secure per-
sonal and official popularity. At
Chicago his reception was far more
than formal greeting to the nations
chief executive. Mckinley was there
recognized and acclaimed ss the offici-
al embodiment of the truly American
spirit of progress and of the Americ
policies of protection and sound money
that have, through the republican par
ty, made the United States leap forward
IL longlbounds, until under his careful
administration the country enjoys
degree of prosperity never before even
dreamed of. 1t is good deal to be
president. But it ia far more to be
thoroughly popular with the mass of
the people because of true merit. Nc
Kfnley has won the hearts of the peo-
pie no less than their minds. In him
as standard bearer of the great repub-
lican party of prosperity they see the
man who shall continue to lead them
on to victory after victory. Those de-
mocrsts who are clamoring for a
change will be given what they want,
but the. change will onsist in the de-
struction of their old landmarks. The
sky looks decidedly republican. De-
mocrats should look out for squalls and
should not venture to leave port.

Inquiry Into Trust Facts.

From the Chicago Post.
If the trust agitation and discussion
has shown anything at all, it has showI
the dearth of practical accurate knowl
edge of the fundamental facts of the
case. When Bourke Cochran cried 81
the Chicago conference. "Who is hurt
by the trusts, and whereof the silence
was oppressive and unanimous. Many
felt tn at the trusts did hurt, and in
many places, but they had no facts and
figures to adduce then and there. The
civic federation bad tried to gather
statistical evidence by list of queries
sent to various trade and labor repre-
sentatives. but the answers it received
Were neither numerous nor specific
enough to warrant any inductions.
Now, it is plain that before remedies
can be proftably discussed 1t is neces-
sary to have fairly adequate idea o.
the nature and gravity OF the evil,
especially when there are many who
deny the very existence of any evil
and assert that the trust" is a
bugaboo or q phantom of disordered
political imagination. It ia we'll.
therefore, that the federal bureau of
labor statistics has undertaken a care
full Investigation of the practical side
of the trust question, of the conditions
accompanying or following the deve-
lopment of the new form of Industrial
organization.
About $50 trusts will be covered
by the inquiry, and the Information
will be tabulated and published early
next year. Professor jerks is cooper
sting with Colonel Wright, and there
is thus every assurance that the inves
tigation will be fair, scientific and en-
titled to general acceptance. To many
it will be great surprise to learn that
the congressional resolution under
which this inquiry is conducted was
passed as long ago as June, 1888. 1t
makes it the duty Of the labor
bureau to ascertain and report
what articles are controlled by
trusts or other com bin ations OF capital,
and what effect said trusts have on pro-
duction, prices and employment, In
accordance with this direction, the
bureau will endeevor to ascertain the
prices of trust produced goods as COM
pared with those of the pre-trust per-
iod. the number of persons employed
immed lately before and after the tran
sition and the wages commanded by
them.
Both sides will welcome this inqui-
ry. It will answer the Cochran ques
ton, "Who is hurt, and where?" eth

In what spot, or by proving that the
outcry against com bin ations has refer
