THE NEW PAClFlC-By Hube

THE NEW PAClFlC-By Hubert
Howe Bancroft.
The events of the past year, in the
war with Spain and the acquisition OF
new domain, resulting in revival OF
trade and phenomenal industrialism,
invest with fresh interest the Pacific
ocean, round which cluster SO many
crowning incidents.
The author begins his work with
a sketch OF the war with Spain, the
causes which led to it and the resultant
issues, as preliminary to the glimpses
OF history and description Of the coun-
tries in and around the Pacific, their
resources. commerce, climates. mines
and manufactures, with glance at the
old-time traffic in trinkets and furs, on
account Of the important voyages OF
circumnavigation, science and discov-
cry, the great gold gatherings, and
kindred topics. The Bancroft Com

WAS TT A PLOT?

A remarkable story comes from Washington and is credited to General H. " Boynton. one of the oldest, most careful and most trustworthy newspa- | per correspondents at the national cap itai. General Boynton puts forth the statement that the criticism of the war i department made by the yellow jour nals is rart of a plan concocted by the publishers of several democratic news Earers to defeat the renomination of MT. Mckinley in 1900. According to i General Poynton-who is in no way connected with the department or the i adminlstration-the editors of these papers met in Washington last May. With :hem was a member of the na- tional democratic committee. They decided that if the war was successful it would be a hard matter to prevent the nomination and reelection of MT Mckinley. They reached the conclu- sion, also that by holding up the war deral :ment as inefficient, and by eX- citing the country with stories of mis- management and neglect of soldiers, IIc GIU dI WHICH they Were might be reached This story may be secuted by many persons who even hold contempt for yellow journalism and believe it capable of any mean and despicah.e course. An honorable man finds it difficult to bring his mind to the belief that there are in the high calling Of journalism those who would prostitute it by deliberate resource to 2 course that might blacken the repu- tation Of the nations president or his cabinet members in order to achieve political victory. But is it not pos sible that if a formal meeting of the kind alleged did not take place, at least all informal one may have been held ana the plan of campaign passed around secretly to the newspaper mak- CTS who could be trusted to take up a new kind of dirty work? Certainly the persistent, unyielding, brutal and strangely unanimous bounding of the administration during the past year, based largely upon charges since pro- ven false, lend cGedence to Boynton's story What else but desire to effect political results can explain the dia
 bolical course of certain journals against loyal and able president, even to the end of holding their nation up to the scorn of the world?

AS TO TRUSTS.

"The pottery trust may dissolve" 7" say news reports which base the state ment OH the belief that the concern is greatly over capitalized. Those per sens Nhose fears have teen aroused by the modern trust tendency may have to wait but little fo- the reaction which seems inevitable in the case of the 1ig corporations that have swelled their stock and bond issues to facti- tious proportions. Whatever is found el on good business principles and the demands of modern competition will survive for the probable welfare of the public but those inflated concerns that have merely followed the beck of some promoters or been led by impulse to get ''in the swim" will run their course and collapse with no greater damage than to nfI the confiding investors who have rushed for their securities. Rus sell Sage is quoted as warning the in- vesting public against putting it's r.ouey into securities of the new ''in- dustrials,' the consolidated companies, of which so many are now being incor- porated, without the most careful scrutiny of the antecederts of the sev- era1 companies consolidated into one, as we'll as of the records and reputa- tions of the managers Of the colossal new corporations.& Continuing, he said, as quoted:
 Many of these concerns are started with 8 view to profit with very little risk to the men who engineer them, and expect to draw in Innocent invest 0rs. IT. some cases the investigators will find a lot of concerns combined, some Of which have never done any thing but lose money, some of which have never made cent and few that have perhaps paid some dividends. I say what I do for the benefit of solid industry and investments and the good of Wall street. If time is taken to weed the good from the bad, Wall street will continue an active field of effort
 If the trust tendency is a craze it is DoE to he generally feared; if it is natural step in the evolution of trade, it is hard to see how it can be checked, for laws however shrewdly drawn will find their match ill shrewd evasion.

wANAMAKER's PROFITS.

A business man in Philadelphia said the other day that MT. Wanamaker' s profits from his Philadelphia store last year were over $1.7500O0, and that those from his New York establish ment will run close to that figure. The Saturday before Christmas the receipts in New York were even greater than those in Philadelphia, and exceeded S500000 The New York store has paid a profit from the very day it was opened, although two firms which oc- cupied the establishment since A. T. Stewards death have failed. The req son of MT. Wanamaker's great success both in New York and Philadelphia, is his skillful and extensive advertising. It has been his rule to confine his ad- vertising to newspapers and maga- zines, on which he has spent annually more than $300,000 in Philadelphia. The advertising bills of his New York establishment exceeded even that sum last year.-New England Home Maga- zine,

So far as the two mel principally in- terested in the SampsoE- Schley contro- Yersy are concerned, there is abundant evidence that had thsy been left to themselves no dispute between them would have been made public. Both have been generously rewarded for their services Neither would have aired any fancied grievance had it not been for those, who under the pretence of attacking injustice, are far more in tent OH parading their own importance. When Schley made his first report of the battle he said there is glory enougl for all" And that conclusion was excepted by the country and should have been allowed to stand un- disturbed
