Antitrust Law.

The late law against trusts in this State is all it's name indicates and then some. 1t makes it unlawful for even merchants to agree upon the price of any article. Lawyers, doctors and teachers are forbidden to fix fees or salaries. Wage earners can enter into no agreement as to the amount of pay they shall receive, while all reliable fire insurance companies will be forced to quit business in the State We believe in a law against trusts, but the legislature has certainly very much over done the thing.
 The first section of the act is as follows:
 Any corporation organized under the laws of this or any other state or country and transacting or conducting any kind of business in this state, or any partnership or individual, or other association or persons whatsoever, who shall create. enter into become member of or party to any pool, trust, agreement, combination, confederation or understanding with any other per- son or association of persons, to regu late or fix the price of any article or manufacture, mechanism, merchandise, commodity. convenience, repair, any product of mining, or any article O. thing whatsoever, or the price or prem ium to be paid for insuring property against loss or damage by fire, lifihten- ing or storm, or to maintain said price when so regulated or fixed, or shall enter into, become member of or party to any pool, agreement, con tract, combination association or con- federation to fix or limit the amount quantity of any article of manufacture, mechanism, merchandise, commodity convenience, repair, any product of mining, or any article or thing what soever, or the price or premium to be paid for insuring property against loss or damage by fire, lightning, storm, cyclone, tarnado or any other kind of policy issued by any corporation, part nership, individual or association of persons aforesaid, shall be deemed and adjudged guilty of conspiracy to defraud, and be subject to the penal ties as provided by this act.

DEMAND FOR YOUNG ,CATORs.
Hides Used for Small Satchels, Pocket.
books and Card Cases,

There is am extraordinary demand
just at present for young aligators, /"
said we'll known travelling represeur
| tatlve of large trunk manufactory.
1heir skins are used for making a fine
class of small SachelS or hand bars.
1t requires from sthree to four skins to
make even the smallest of these arti.
Giles, and the consequence is that they
are good deal too costly for the gen.
eral trade. There is as much differ.
ence between the hides of large ALI.
gators aud the babes as there is be.
tween calf-skin and Russian leather.
The young alligator that is priced by
the bagmakers is not a foot and a
half long, and THE hard, diamond
shaped scales that distinguish the
older saurin have not had time to de-
velop and harden. If the hide is prop.
erly tanned it is soft and beautiful.
and resembles nothing else in the
world. For Pocketbooks, card cases,
and so on they use the skins of the
lttle fellows, not much bigger than
those that are sold for aquarium pets
1t is a fad just now to color them a
peculiar olive green, and the result;
Is swell. 1T makes an excellent back
ground for either gold or silver orna
ments, and / have seen pocketbooks
OF that style quoted as high as 800 .
piece. All the skins come from Flor
ida and if the demand for the young
ones continue, as seems quite likely at
present, it is going to result in ma.
teriany thinning out gators In the
Land of Flowers. Heretofore, the pro.
fessional hunters have avoided the
killing of the young, and there was
NO danger of the supply running
short. as they are extremely prolific
But just now the old ones are al
lowed to go their way in peace, anu
the natives are devoting all their at
tention to gathering in the junior
members of the family. I anticipate

season"
