PEARY ARCTIC CLUB.
STEAMER wINDwARD BRINGS
NEWS OF 1T.
Lieutenant Peary Has Gained a
Great Deal of Valuable
Information.

BRIGUS IN. F.), Sept. IL. The
Peary- -Harmsworth steamer Windward,
Captain John Bartlett from Etah,
North Greenland, has arrived here, re-
porting all well on board. She will be
followed in week by the Peary Arc
tic Clubs steamer Diana, Captain Sam
uel w. Bartlett, also from Etah. The
Windward reports that all on board the
Diana were well at the time the vessels
separated The two steamers met at
Etah on August 18th and worked in
company under the personal direction
of Lieutenant Peary in collecting sup
plies for the winter and the equipment
for next springs campaign. The Wind
ward was ice-bound in Allan Bay, on
the west side of Kane Basin, about fifty
miles north of Cape Sabine, from Aug
ust is, 1898, to August ,, 1899, being
in a sort Of eddy, undisturbed by wind
or current. The season was one OF
continuous calm with very little snow

being 20 degrees below zero. All the

To the Good Citizen and the Man Who
Loves His Country.
The Trust Craze Has Changed the
Whole Nature of Things and the
Young Man of To-Day Has No
Chance to Rise, but Must Re-
main a Clerk, for Lack of the
Necessary Capital.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10. - The "Trib-
une" will publish tomorrow an inter-
view with Ex-United States Senator
William D. Washburn, head of an ex-
tensive flour milling interest in Min
neapolis, in which he says:
The present situation to the good cit
izen, the good Republican and the man
who loves his country is really alarm
ing, and it is more largely owing to the
rapid formation Of what is called the
trust than to any other agency. First,
this trust craze has changed the whole
nature of doing things.
When l was young man - I am
now 6S = I had the world before me
and there was absolutely a fair field
for me. Take all of our most success
full business men of to-day and their
experiences We're like mine. They en-
tered the race without a handicap and
their grit and capacity won. Now this
building up of trusts leaves no oppor-
tunities for the young men of to-day.
The young man just out of college has
no opening. AS a rule he cannot begin
business on his own account against
organized capital. He must join the
procession. He must content himself
with be ng a mere clerk and the chances
are that he will never get any further,
because there are SO many in his class.
This makes the situation a serious one,
and l am sorry for the young man of
to-day. I've studied the situation and
l am sure of what I am saying"
Ex-senator Washburn declared that
the almost universal over capitalization
of trusts and the manipulation of prices
to produce exorbitant profits must
eventually result in a general collapse.
He added: There is one thing that
greatly disturbs me. The Republican
party, whether justly or unjustly, is
associated with trusts in the minds Of
the masses. AS a party we have
reached a crisis where we have got TO
call halt. The Republican party has
got to disconnect itself from trusts. ut
has got to do something more than
adopt platform planks against trusts.
1t has got to put forth its full strength
and legislate against them. The feel
ing against the trust idea is intense in
the West. It is so intense in the Re-
publican party that the party will
break ranks unless something is done.
The under tow of sentiment in the
Western Republican States against
trusts is not understood in the East
The revolt may strike us as early as
next year.
Senator Washburn suggested the re-
moval of protective duties, where such
duties are advantageous to the trusts.
