The twisting, squirming and maneu-
vering of politicians to avoid the odium
of trusts and take advantage of the I'M
popularity of the enormous combine
lions recently formed furnish a sub
ject for serious thought. There is no
doubt that all parties in the next ma
tional campaign will adopt platforms
violently against trusts. The Republi-
can party will be so vlndictiye in its
language against those institutions
that no other party can exceed its vio-
lent abuse. The question to be solved
Is: Will the people ever find out who
is responsible for trusts? The gold
standard is the father of all trusts be-
cause gold standard contraction ere
ates falling prices which make 1t nee
essary for business men to combine to
save themselves from bankruptcy.
Who is responsible for the gold stand
ard-the party led by Mckinley or the
party led by Bryan? Every trust or
ganization in the United States will
contribute its money and its influence
to elect the Republican candidate. Will
that fact satisfy the people that the
Republican party is the party responsi-
BILE for trusts? Why should every trust
in the United States be Republican,
from the gold combination down to the
manufacturers of matches? If the
American people are not stark mad
they will have no difficulty in finding
out which party is responsible for the
trusts, and if they are really opposed
to the trusts they will vote for the 9th
er side. Unless the majority of the
American people vote as the trusts
vote, the Republican candidate will
stand no show whatever of winning in
1900.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Inappropriate
tribute 10 the memory of the late Vice
President Hobart was paid by the senate to-
day at the first session of the Fifty sixth
congress. The session lasted only thirty
three minutes and only the most formal and

the adoption Of the usual routine resolutions
and the administration to the new members
Of the oath of the senate, Sewell OF New
Jersey presented fitting resolutions upon the
death OF the vice president; the resolutions
we're ordered to be communicated to the
house of representatives, and the session, on
motion OF Kean OF New Jersey, was sus-
pended,
As usual on the opening days of session
OF congress the chamber was veritable con-

air Scarcely a senator was forgotten in the
lavish floral display and particularly notable
was the Offering of flowers to the new mem
bers OF the body. The desks to which they
had been assigned were loaded with the
choicest selections from the public and pri-
yate conseryatories OF the city
Attention was called to the fact that no
emblem of mourning appeared on the vice
presidents desk. This apparent omission
was explained by the statement that the
senate had not been informed officially of
Mr. Hobart's death. Pending the actual

Suit to stop Treasurer Roberts from
Paying Money 10 Catholic Hospital.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4-The United
States supreme court has decided the case
of Joseph Bradfield of the District of Co.
lumba against United States Treasurer
Roberts, brought to restrain the treasurer
from paying over money appropriated to
meet the terms of an agreement made by
the commissioners of the district with the
management of the Providence hospital in
this city. The hospital is conducted by the
Sisters of Charity Of the Catholic church
and Bradtleld opposed it on sectarian
grounds. Justice Peckham in passing on it
said:
Assuming that the hospital is a private
eleemosynary corporation, the fact that its
members, according to the belief of the
complainant, are members of monastic
order or sisterhood of the Roman Catholic
church, and the further fact that the hos
pital is conducted under the auspices of
said church are wholly immaterial Whether
the individuals who compose the corporation
under it's charter happen to be all Roman
Catholics or all Methodists, or Presbyteri-
ans, or members of any other religious or
ganization or none at ALL Is not of the
slightest consideration. All that can be said
of the corporation itself is that it has been
incorporated by an act of congress and for
it's legal powers and duties that act must
be exclusively referred to-"
