TRUSTS BRING STRIKES.

John Swinton, in the New York World, says that statistician who Is preparing an article on strikes in the United States, for a leading journal Tn Great Britain, finds that there have been more workmen out on strike during the first half of the present year than there was in any other half year since 1877; that in ten states the strikes have been of formidable character, and that more than 100000 men have been involved.
 There can be but one cause for this state Of things, namely, the formation of giant monopolies. It has been published broadcast that enormous capital has been put into the trusts; that the move ment is backed by millions: that the profits are and will be phe- nomenal. The trust promoters expect to corner the markets and milk" the consumer to the ut most limit. It is proclaimed that the success of the trust means the ending of business crises, and that the prosperity we are now enjoy ing is to be permanent.
 The same condition IS claimed for the street railroad combines, which have been hoated at startling figures and are advertised as ln- yestments better than gold mines. Meanwhile, with prices going sky ward and sure to continue rising while the trust boom lasts, the workman sees himself, except III ] few instances, left out of the calculation. A "revolution in in dustry' has been accomplished and it IS but natural for the work ingman to ask what it has done for him.
 The 100000 workers who have gone on strike in the past six months have simply put the ques tion to the trusts, "What is there in monopoly for usF'-St. Lotus Post Dispatch.

ATTRACTING ATTENTION.

A few days ago we published an assay ot some mineral bearing rock taken from mine near here. the assay having been made at St. Joseph, Mo. We have just re- celved letter from a mining ex- pert and extensive dealer in ores and mine operator in Missouri. who says:
 ''l notice in copy of the Star just arrived that parties by the name of Coneday Bros. & Hend- rick have ore said to run 33 ounces In silver, 40 per cent of zinc and 10 per cent of lead. 1 would like to sec a sample of that ore and also find out what the prospects were for a few car loads of it at this time."
 Upon inquiry at Durham & Batson's Mining Exchange we learn that the owners are prepar- ing to ship a car load soon. Wc also learn that an assay, made by Prof. Soest, of their place, of a specimen Of ore from the same mlne gave Is 75-1,A ounces of sil- yer, $40 6-10 pounls of zinc, 156 6 10 pounds of lead and 45 40 pounds of tin. This llst reported assay while from ore from the same mine, Was not from exactly the same place in said mine, and, as will be observed, the two assays vary some, yet show a good aver age and great richness. It takes time to develop these industries but certainly such reports as quoted above give cause for en- couragoment.

PENSIONS FAITHFUL EMPLOYEES

The officials of the Pennsvlya- nia Railway company have decided to pension the men who grow old in the faithful service of the com. pany. 1t Is estimated that about $300,000 per annum will be re. quired to provide for these pen sions. That seems like large sum, but the Pennsylvania com pany is huge corporation. It employs about 90,OOO men on it's 5000 miles of road. Its gross earnings amount to 65 million dollars per annum, of which sum A millions are required for oper- ating expenses, so that the sum which is expected to be required for pensions will add less than 1 per cent to the cost of running the road, and it will be only a little more than an average of three dollars per annum for each man employed. This plan will enable the company to lay off every year about 100 men and provide them with enough to live on comfort ably for the remainder of their days.
 There has been too great ten dency of late years to eliminate humane considerations from the relations of employers to en- ployees; too much disposition to make vast, heartless machines out of the great labor-employing fac tories and transportation com panies. It is neither humane nor sensible for an employer to look upon his workingmen merely as machines, out of which the utmost service is to be obtained, but even If the industrial system of to-day makes this vlew inevitable, the fact remains that the employer who does all he can to make his employees contented, to recognize their rights and their sensibilities as fellow men, will get better ser vice out of them than the employer who eliminates all such humane considerations.
