In a Dilemma.

DR.. L1ddon, the eloquent preacher Of
London, and Mr.. Dodgson, better
known as Lewis Carroll, the author Of
"Alice in Wonderland" were once
obliged to resort to hieroglyphics in
order to be understood by a Russian
waiting-maid.
While in Russia the two gentlemen
stopped at friends in Kronstadt,
where one morning DR.. Liddon had
left his overcoat.
When departing for st. Petersburg
they found it necessary to ask the
waiting maid, who talked only Russian,
to fetch 1t. AS the little vocabulary
they used did not contain the Russian
word for coat, the gentlemen found it
difficult to make the girl understand
what they wished her to do. Dr. Lid.
don began by exhibiting the coat he
wore, and with much gesticulation took
it half off. Apparently the girl under
stood them, and they were delighted
She left the room, and returned in
minute with large clothes brush.
Then DR.. Liddon took off his coat,
laid it at her feet, and pointed down
ward, to intimate that in lower room
was the object he desired her to bring.
Once more the plain features of the
girl lighted up. She was absent much
longer this time, and returned bringing
large cushion and a pillow, and began
to prepare the sofa for the nap which
she thought the gentleman wished to
take.
Then a happy thought occurred to
Dodgson. He drew sketch represent
ing Liddon with one coat on, receiving
second and larger coat from a Rus
sian peasant. The sketch succeeded,
and the two gentlemen went off humil-
lated by the fact that they had to de-
scend to the level Of ancient Thebes be-
fore recovering an overcoat.

trusts. It opened the door wide to all
that now exist. The last Senate was
not Republican and would not permit
the restoration Of the antitrust clause
of the Mckinley law. The Republican
record against trusts is perfeatiy clear.
A law in 1890 fulfilled the platform
pledge Of 1888. Then the Democrats
came into power and disagreement
and calamity came with them. In
their endless chapter of disasters was
the killing of the antitrust law. They
worked havoc In that direction as in
every other. Yet they are now making
prodigious racket over the trusts as
if the subject were entirely new ana
their party acting upon it for the nrst
time.-St. Louis Globe-D Democrat

What Would HapDen.

The London Economist has given a
tabulated list of 1877 healthy, robust
trusts now existing in free trade Eng
land. OF these 1872 are more than five
years old. In the latter class are 10
iron and steel combinations, II textile
fabric trusts, paper combines and IL
railway rolling stock combinations.
According to the stock quotations and
reported dividends none of these big
concerns are at all lank or spindly,
Notwithstanding the absence of tar
if mother to furnish nourishment dur
ing the period of infancy. All these lit
tie items Of information in regard to
the extent of the trust system abroad
naturally suggest an inquiry as to
what would happen if we complied
with the Democratic entreaty to take
off the tariff and bust the trust" Well,
for one thing, we would be sure to fur
nish a mighty promising field of opera
lions for the trusts of England, Ger
many and the other European nations
which are not engaged in the busting
process.-Sioux City Qowa) Journal.

Settled for a Generation.

1t will be long time before the pro-
tective policy of this country will again
be disturbed. This generation will have
passed away and a generation launch
ed upon the scene that has no recol-
lection Of the distress caused by the
tariff tinkering of 1893 1896. Radical
changes may take place in other de-
partments of our economic govern
ment, but the tariff question is settled
for this generation, at least.-Brad

Two Inevitable Results.

Not One-haIf Of the articles handleO
by the trusts are protected by tar1ffs.
Not one-half the capitalization OF the
great consultations is devoted to the
production of articles which are pro-
tected. Mr.. Havemeyer knows very
we'll that in forming these consollda-
tons the real objects were an economy
of organization and monopoly OF the
local production. These being the
prime object, the tariffs affect them
neither in one way nor the other, ex-
cept as they may exclude a foreign
competition. If we throw open the
doors to foreign competition it would
necessitate even greater economy in
organization to enable home producers
to compete proftably. There would be
no surer way to put the entire produc-
ton of the country into the hands OF
consultations than by striking down
all our tariff duties. There would be
an absolute necessity for trusts then,
or else we should have to give our mar
kets over to the Europeans and go out
of business, for we could not continue
to produce in any but the most eco
nomical way against unrestricted for
eign competition. 1t is safe, then, to
say that if all our tariff laws should be
repealed tomorrow there would be just
two effects-one the degradation of
American labor, and the other COM
plete absorption of our industries by
giant observation-disclosures City (Kan)
