TWO YEARS. RECORD.

A summing up of the acts of the re.
publican administration is made as fol-
lows by David A. DeArmond,i in the ST.
Louis Republic, and may be interest
ing to readers generally:
The republican party has had control
Of the government for two years.
What are its performances and its
omissions? The Dingley tariff law
is the achievement of which it boasts
most. Whatever of prosperity has
come to the country here ami there, it
ascribes to that law, and wherever
times are hard something else is said
to have caused the trouble. The fail
ure of crops in foreign countries, the
abnormal demnad in this country for
everything required in war times. the
withdrawal of hundreds and thousands
of men from the peaceful pursuits of
life to camp and field and ocean-all
the ineYitable effects upon INDUSTRY
and production and the markets of all
these things, and many more, are
placed by the republican politicians to
the credid of the Dingiey tariff law.
But the Dingley bill has been fail
ure as revenue producer. Republic
can expenditures bave far outstripped
its receipts, supplemented by large in.
comes from other ordinary and extra
ordinary sources. a.
What else has the Republican party
done in Its two years of powerP What
has it to add to its Dingley law? A
law, to help people out of
it's abundant prosperity!
1t was to do much toward reforming
the finances, according to its professed
views. It either has had no confidence
In its theories or it has lacked the
honesty or the courage, or both, to ap- |
ply its remedies.
1t has turned war for humanity
into a war against humanity. 1t has
made determined effort to increase
the regular army far beyond all need
Or reasonable excuse for increase. It |
has planned to hold on to Cuba against
our solemn declaration and at the
peril of our national honor and good
'aith. 1t has given the country scandals
growing out of the war, nausaating
beyond precedent, It has veiled its
purposes in the Philippines until war
With the natives, lately our allies, Is
ipon US.
1t contemplates colonial empire, but
acks the courage to proclaim it,

EFFECT OF TRUSTS.

There is no agency which threatens
the welfare of the American people
and American commerce more thar
trusts, and the rapidity with which
they are forming is more alarming
than anything with which we have te
deal. The bad effect does not lie
alone in the Capitalization of business
10 few hands, by which products may
be limited and prices regulated, but in
over capitalization and watering Of
stocks that is certain to bring disaster
to those who invest in the stocks OF
such concerns.
In the formation Of trusts that con.
troll manufacturing plants, almost in
every instance, there are large blocks
of watered stock on which dividends
will have to be paid, the same as on
shares that represent actual invest
ments. The result will be crash that
is certain to come sooner or later, and
the loss of q portion. or all Of the money
that small inv estors have put into such
concerns, and it is not improbable
that the next financial panic will be
the result of imitation of stocks and
bonds of trust corporations. In this
event the managers and those at the
head of the corporations will be none
the loser, for they will fortify them
eslves against loss by holding suf-
fcient amount of watered stock that
has cost them nothing, while the small
holders, who have paid actual cashsfor
their stock will lose all or part OF their
investment.
The first bad effect of trusts will be
to put up the price, to consumers, of
commodities they control, because of
their ability to limit the product and
prevent competition, as the consumer
will be required to pay dividends on
all the capital invested as we'll as the
watered stock. and this too on plants
that are antiquated and unfit for use;
and the second will be the loss to
those who buy stocks in such concerns
as Investments whenever 1t becomes
more profitable for the managers to
put the concern into the hands of re-
ceivers than tits to continue them in
operation.

MANILA, March 15.-Genera1 Whea-

flying column, attacked and defeated q
force of 2O00 Eilipinos at Pasig this
afternoon, Jinfiictiug heavy loss upon
them. The Americans captured $50
Fifipinos.. Many bodies of rebels
killed in the engagement are floating
down the river. The American loss
was slight.
About $50 Filipinos surrendered at
the town of ofTaguig to the Washington
volunteers, and 175 Filipinos were
captured at 'Pasig by the Twentieth
infantry. Our troops found LOG dead
Filipinos and 100 new graves near
Pasig. The prisoners were unarmed,
and therefore it is presumed they
executed their threat Of throwing
their arms into the river.

double that of the previous year, and
there will likely be several deficiencies
In the different departments when all
accounts are in. This doubling of
general expense is attributed to the
recent war with Spain aud the un.
pleasantness at the Philippines.
These are some OF the fruits OF i'm.
