TIMES ARE CHANGING.

The S. Louis Globe Democrat recently said that it is somewhat
 bewiIdering in these days to look over the business projects of the country which are recognizing and capitalizing on 6 basis of tens of
 millions and hundreds of millions
 4 few years ago these combinations were content 10 6x their stock at a million or two, but scarcely day passes m which schemes are not preached for $50OO0OOo or more. One much talked of at present an- nounces that its stock will be placed at S50O,OO0,OOO Or SS00.000,OO0, or possibly a round Sl,0O0,000,000. Producers of copper talk of making up their stock to several hundred millions. In fifteen months new American industrial securities
 have been created to the extent of S5.OOO,OOO,O0l, and the daily sddi- tions are running higher than ever. While such combinations are called trusts, it is clear that their msnipu- lators are more concerned at present in selling stock to persons with money to invest than in running up prices or limiting production. They are certainly not limiting the pro duction of industrial stocks. Many suppose that the sugar trust is com posed of few persons. As mat ter of fact, is stockholders number 5000. Large business combinations and consultations began earlier in England, France and Germany than in this country. 1t is a worlds movement in manufacturing and trade. Combination is a striking feature of the worlds progressive development, and the important thing is to make 1t securely a benefit to the many.
 Many western writers of proni- hence and foresight are grasping the socalled trust question in a far diff fereut mood from that which seemed to seize people in the beginning. In mining, especially, are good results emanating from the consolidation of capital into commercial and man ufsc ming pursuits, and fl the prophecies of the times are but half fulfilled. mining investments, as a result of the driving away of limited capital from its old line of invest ments, millions of idle money must Of necessity venture 10 the field of mines aud mining. As a direct re- suit of the recent formation of so many heavy trusts a stampede to the fields of western mining induce ments IS on today to such SD extent as 10 be simply bewildering. In Arizona, especially, vast sums of idle dollars are here and transactions in purchases, options and other deals, in the last few months will run up into the millions. With tho daily formation of glgan- tlc trusts iu the east, there is hardly a day even here in far away Arizona but what sale is not chronicled of some desirable piece of mining ground. Arizona, by all means, should hail the formation of these It brings capital to us, aud relieves aa industry of con dItion-both financially and indust- rialIy-that for years under the old conditions was being simply stran- gled to death.

THE NEWS
Concerning Dewey,

Washington, May l3.- Admiral Dewey today cabled the navy de- partment from Manila that he had completed plans respecting the Boss ton and had concluded to allow the cruiser Co come to the United States Ht once. The admiral said nothing further about his own return to the United States. Officials of the navy department express some surprise at the announcement through the As sociais.d Press eablegrsms from Manila that Dewey would occupy four months in the cruise, for this period Is at least twice the time re- quired to make a straight cruise. It Is supposed that he desires to delay his arrIval in the United States until the hot weather has passed, being already debilitsted from long expos ure to the heat of the Philippines. The admiral will stop about two weeks at Hong Kong.
 Admiral Dewey wIil sail for New York by way of the Suez canal on board the United States cruiser Olympia in about ten days
 A dispatch of May l3, frOm Read ing, Pa, says:
 Daylight today revealed last nights accident on the PhilsdelphIa & Reading railroad at Exeter as one of the most disastrous in the history of the road. The number of killed is at least twenty-eight. The seci- dent happened as follows: Fast express train No. l2, which ordin- arily runs through from Reading and Pottstown, without stopping, was held up at Exeter by coal train using a cross-over switch. While awaiting orders q special through train, running from Harrisburg to Philadelphia, laden with excursion ists, came along and crashed into the rear cars of No. l2, wrecking the two day coaches and a Pullman. The wounded will number 43.

question with reference to the action OF
various counties in calling single primaries
to determine their choice for senator. Sew
eral counties in calling primaries on this
question seem to have acted on the pre-
sumption that the lists were complete and
that the two men already announced. Al
len and McLaurin, would be the only con-
testants for the place. With this idea in
mind several county executive committees
called single instead OF double primary
on the question. With only two men on
the ticket a single primary was all that
was necessary to ascertain the majority
choice but with the third man in the field
1t is evident that the sentiment of a ma
jority of the voters can not always be
accurately determined without the inter-
vention of a second primary TO be partici-
pated in by the two men who received the
largest number of votes at the first. AS
a rule, plurality primaries are not popular
in Mississippi and many of the county eX-
ecutive committees will doubtless reecind
their former actions.
