 Statement of Property
 Every corporation should be compelled to file with the secretary of state when it or ganizes a statement of property and then let the public buy at any capitalization it chooses to make. Every year il should re- port to some competent authority full statement of it's business. This is the law today in nearly every state and 1t is al- ways evaded. The reports are misleading where they are not incomprehensible.
 "Extend the powers of your superinten- dent of insurance and banking to all cor pOra tions and let these reports be verified and then you will have honest management of corporations and I promise you that this public distrust and hatred of corporate en- titles will disappear from the minds of lie- erty-loving people who are but seeking justice even through their prejudice"
 Mr Cochran then spoke of the benefits of a monopoly that controls the market through the cheapness of it's product: dwelt upon the advantages of competition, the et- feet of labor-saving machinery on indus trial development, and at the close of his speech won the hearts of his listeners by paving MT Bryan a few well chosen com- pliments which the democratic leader blushingly acknowledged MT Cochran lik- ened MT Bryan to a monopoly, and claimed he was a bigger monopoly as the leader ot the democratic party than any or the great corporations in the world.
 He spoke for two hours and when he con- cluded cries for Bryan came from all over the house. Finally Mir. Bryan arose and said for the good of the conferenc, all par tisan feeling should be eliminated from the gathering and although he agreed with MT Cochran in many of his arguments 1t was necessary that his side of the controversy should be given tomorrow night.

Crowding to the Cites.

The tendency of young mqn
 especially to leave the farms and
 to overcrowd the cities has become
 Q crying evil in this country. Eadh
 census for a number O decades has shown that an increased per cent Of
 the population is living in the cities.
 The Baltimore Sun in commenting
 or this subject says that the chief
 causes of this concen tration of pop
 ulation in the Eastern States are easily accounted for, but that sudh a complaint should come from pure
 ly agricultural States with DO large
 cities to attract people from the fertile farms cannot fail to cause
 surprise.
 II young men desert the farms to
 avoid hard work they are making
 grievous mistake, because, com
 pared with the work of the railroad
 brakeman, the street car motorman : or conductor, and of many of the
 clerks and laborers in the cities, the Y occupation of the farmer is one Of
 ease and leisure.
 True, there are times when he
 must work hard and the work in
 the field under July sun is not
 along the primrose path ofdalliance;
 but lhis vocation is immeasurably
 more manly and independent. He
