Women as COLLECTORS.

The women of Kansas have for so
many years beer accustomed to break
out with energy in some direction, it is
not surprising that they have supplant-
ed men as collectors in Topeka. They
have two advantages as collectors.
They are persuasive, and where this
does not avail, they can be worse than
CAD flies, until a man in sheer despera-
ton will find the money to pay, ever if
he has to take his wife's last dollar.
But when it comes to collecting bills
that are due from women, the woman
collector fails. The housewife who buys
the groceries declines to give the wom-
an collector the pleasure of success, and
will wait until she can deal with a
But Topeka men who cannot afford to
leave town dig up the cash to meet bills,
for they know what Kansas women will
do, or rather do not know what they
will not do. Fancy Mary Yellin Lease
scooping down upon n with a pile Of
bills!

The value of the mineral products of
this country, so far as statisticians have
been able to compute it, was for last
year $710, 900, 900, and the value of the
wheat and corr crops $500, 900, 900. These
amounts represent an annual addition
to the wealth of the country because
they come from the earth, and are the
Uoduct Of the energy of man. AS the
soil, the sun, the air and rain, aided by
the Drawn of the farmer, can go on
producing this value yearly, and as ma
lures storehouses of metal, ores and
minerals have scarcely yet been touch
ed, the wealth Of the country must go
on increasing indefinitely.

Iowa Republican Resolutions.

Iowa Republicans have the courage
of their convictions. In their state con-
vention they declared for the single gold
standard, and that trusts must be re-
strained where they interfere with the
natural laws of business. But the finan-
cial declaration says that every dollar
of silver and paper must be kept on a
parity with the gold dollar.
The expression on the subject of
trusts is conservative in language, and
apparently not made to be high sound
ing nor dramatic in effect, but Iowa
Republicans have a record for straight
forwardness in politics, and their sin
certify need not be questioned.
The language Of the antitrust reso-
luton is as follows:
ITO maintain the welfare of the peo-
pie Is the object Of all governments. In
dustry and commerce should be left free
to pursue their method according to the
natural laws of the world, but when the
business aggregation known as trusts
prove hurtful to the people, they must
be restrained by laws, and, If need be,
abolished"
Iowa will furnish the speaker of the
next house of representatives, and he
and his Iowa confreres have never
failed in sturdy work for Republican
measures, and can be relied upon to
support effective trust legislation. The
very fact that one Of the Iowa leaders
is to be the speaker probably led to the
adoption Of a resolution that would not
appear dictatorial to the Republican
congress over which he is to preside, for
Speaker Henderson is naturally looked
upon as responsible for the Iowa plat

THAT CATTLE TRUST.

(Roswell Live Stock Champion.)
Many reports have been sent out dur
ing the past month regarding the for
nation of a cattle trust, to embrace a
country about 800 miles square in Texas
and New Mexico. Promoter Loving, of
Fort Worth and Dallas, is now in New
York trying to stiffen the backbone of
the investors, but so far nothing definite
has been accomplished.
If the trust is formed it will be a
death blow to three out of every four
business enterprises in the territory in
which it is operated, and will set back
the settlement of the country for many
years to come. While on a late trip we
were told by a prominent cattleman,
who had listed his cattle at the pro-
posed combines prices, that to the
small men, if the trust was formed, 1t
meant sell or get out"

kind committed by the h~alf-savage au-

establish a protectorate over the black
