MIR. BRYAN RIGHT FOR ONCE.

In his speech at St. Louis to the i democrats who ate 3 two-dolll9 dinner as a testimony against trusts, Mir Bryan G1consi i0usly spoke one .bis oi l comm04 senss:
 The republican party is impotent to destroy trusts.
 So is any other T}rty At this no meIt the loudest howl against trlI5t ; i comes from democratic states, Whe.e demccHatic legislatures have had l plenty of time and iHclination u ds- stroy trusts. They have passed laws against them and keep passing laws against them, but t1e trusts continue to flourish in spite Of all this fury of | legislation. Texas. for instance. had terrible antitrust law, which wouldn't hold water: and TOW il has passed 3 still more terrible one, which will not hold water either. There has b9sn, we believe, exactly one case in Missouri of 9 customer of | trust talk irg advantage Of the provision in the state law that a debt due to a trus'- shall be non-c0llectible Not even by invitations to dishonesty can the leg islatures make any headway aga!E1G the trusts. Laws are piled on laws, and every trust act IS more sweeping than it's predecessor and will be just .as futile.
 The republican party, and the dem ocratic ra.Gy. and every other party is inepotant against the trusts because the trusts ar.S1 from a business neces- sity. The legislatures m ght as well make statItes 9gainst multiplication oI the rule of three.
 Not that there arc not trusts that arc built upca wind and sand, but those that stand and those that fall will he governed by the laws of bus mess and not by political deciama- ,i01s.-New York Sun.

THE DEWEY MEMORIAL.

IEere- IS ample precedent for the
 movement now on foot to present Adj
 miral Dewey with handsome home in
 Washington in which to spend his de-
 clining days. both in this country and
 abroad, It is readily recalled that
 many of the heroes of the civil war, among them Grant, Farragut, Sheri-
 dan, Sherman and Mcclellan. received
 similar gifts, and these familiar with
 European history know of like in stances in England and on the conti-
 nent The duke of Marlborough, who is married to the daughter of w K Vanderbilt, has as his principal home the palace of BIenheim, which was the gift of the nation to the first duke
 after his winning of the battle of Blenhei1n. Considerably over s2. .000-
 GOO in the monsy of tho epoch or prob
 ably f1v9 times that amount in the
 currency Of the present day, were spent
 in building the palace. The present
 earl Of Nelson, it is also recalled, has
 as his chief abode the historic Trafal- gar house, which was presented to the H'ttt " lis G1GIIFS t O1 Idutl ; IdIIOllS admiral after the battle of Trafalgar. Apsley house, in Piccadilly, London, a palatial abode, is the home of the present duke of Wellington, and was presented to his grandfather, the first duke cf Wellington, after the battle of Waterloo Friedriehsruhe was pre- sented by the German nation to the late Prince Bismarck at the close of the war of 1870. Thus the Dewey me morial is warranted net only by gen. aral acclaim now but by historic GUS tom. Thus far the subscriptions have not equaled the expectation of the schemes projectors, though the fund is well started and must grow to good proportions. It is easier fer nation to make an outright gift, as in each of 1 the foreign cases already noted, than 1 to organize popular movement that 1 will be instantly successful. and it is | doubtless owing to this lack of organi- | zation that the response to the cali fer voluntary offerings has not been more general. The suggestion of General | Il. G. Otis, lately returned from Ma aila, that each state be asked to con .ribute a specific sum might result in some more systematic method of 'eaching those who are doubtless de- iroUs of giving yet find it not easy to ,ast in their mites now One thing is 'ossible: If the movement drags until Dewey returns 10 find Us making hard york of 3 memorial fund he may put a uietus on the whole thing by refusing Q became it's beneficiary.

American and Spanish Physicians Ia
 Dor, Side by Side.

When the United State hospital ship
 OliYette was crowded with terribly
 wounded Spanish soldiers last July the worst eases were soon selected for strange sight-the brotherhood Of sci operating or, and then we saw q enca tEiUmph:ng ever the temporaT y passions of two nations. Among tho Spanish surgeons captured after the destruction of their fleet, but prisoners only in name, were some men pos sessed of very great skill, and operaticn after operation, considered 8 first al most hopeless, was performed by Americans and Spaniards together, and performed with success. Though trained in different medical schools and wearing uniforms of g0ve~nnlea IS whose guns had barely finished roaring against each other, these gocd Samari- tians worked together as if they were fellow students attending the sam clinic. Everybody seemed to know just what to do and after an operation had been successfully performed there was much lowing and shaking Of hands and many ngratulatiCns. Many of our surgeons could not speak Spanish, very few of the Spaniard5 could understand our language, but there was no mistaking the mutual de- sire for Eelpfulness and cordiality that existed between them.-San Francisco &rgonauf.

ATKINsoN's sUPERTICIALITY.
Well Illustrated by an Experience fn
 Boston Journal Office.

It is reported here that Edward At
 kinson is making arrangements to os- tablish 3 newspaper Of his own in Bos- 1 ton ill which he may have unlimited l freedom to promulgate his peculia., i ideas against expansion and the other
 sins of the world. MT. Atkinson has been the most yolumin0us contr:butor to the daily and weekly newspa Pers iD the country, and has probably written more for publication than any man in the United States Whc' is not regularly employed for that purpose. In fact. very few editors and corr espondents have furnished moro ''copy" during the last fifteen or twenty years than ne It is whispered that the Boston papers are tired of him, and have been throw Ing his communication in the waste basket, which is the reas-n he finds 1t necessary to start one of his own.
 MT. Atkinson IS an insurance agent by occupation and is considered high authority 0n subjects Psftaining to that line Of business, but is So. versatile that he is always prepared to discuss any subject at any time, at any length, with any c-1tr0Ye1s 1satiOnaIis<.
 To illustrate Mr Atkinson'5 versa tility. or rather his superfciality. the late Mir. C.app, who was editor of the Boston Journal fer many years, used to tell an amusing story He was sit ting at his dosk one day when MT. At kina1n called Wi5h his usual daily com munlcatic1 to the public through the columns cf the Journal. when Mir Clapp asked t. be excused till he could finish some imperative work. While he was waiting Mr. Atkinson picked up the proofs Of the Weekly Journal that were lying on the cable and read them to kill time. One of them contained an article for the farm department on ensilage, a n-ethod Cf preserving f03- der fer cattle in a green state by bury ing 1t fn the ground. T. appears that Ar Atkinson had nsver heard of suca 2 thing before, and was much inter cstCd 1n it Gs 3 novel idea. although ha was not farmer and had never owned head of cattle or an acre of ground. Wh1n MT. Glspp was at l:1crey again hir. Atkins T asked 3Il aoolt 5asilage and Fas referred to thc files of the Weekly Journal

In view of the many and distressing accidents that have resulted from stu-
 pidity and oarelessness in the use of
 poisons. the use Of a distinctive box or
 bottle for these Iethal mixtures is i'm peratiye. The Brooklyn Eagle says
 that a sensible proposition has been
 made by Howard EgiestOn of that city. It is that bottles containing poison shall Eo of distinct shape, as square or oval CT round, and there would be n0mistaking a battle of this character
 in 1he dark. It is not necessary to
 make a law on this matter, for the
 laws could not enforce any moro than
 tEa original bCJtling, but 1t WcGlld bo
 well if druggists would agree to usa
 these vessels instead of marking a5
 they d3 now, corrosive sUi3limate and
 all that kind of things with a paper
 label bearing a pictured skull and
 crosabones. These labels are nearly useless. since a few drCps of hos water
 will remove them. Most of the poi s0nfng that has been done by accident has resulted from the mistaking cf bottles n the dark. The E2g-e says
 In 3 recent casa 2 m-ehcr gave Car- b0lio acid to her child instead of cough medicine, because st2- not use tue sense of caution that a person would commonly exercise when he made sure that he was putting salt instead 3f sugar on . potato. Had the bottle heen of a distinct shape, the nature of its contents would have been 50 o1- nxoious that Q mistake could not have happened. The Ese cf distinctive bottle makes exceptions all the more dangerous, since people would not look for poisons in bottles Of more usual form. But these villains wac kill by mail are not restrained by laws and they will continue to deceive their vic- tins by the. use of drug bottles for deadly ehemica.s, unless the police aet ! 0n the knowledge they pretend to have i md discourage that most coWardly ami | of murders.

Mir. Quigg, the factotum of MT. PIatt in New York city politics, has ganer- cusly informed the people of the me tropols that h2 will permit a union of anti-Tammany forces in the next election. He isn't such a stickler fer party regularity now as he was last year, for he says: If the rspubIi- cans alone fail to control a majority of the assembly delegation and a ma jority of the board of aldermen, we shall at least have the satisfaction q knowing that common honesty and common decency will control' If this sensible view had prevailed in the last municipal campaign there would not be any wide-CDen Tammany govern ment in New York t. investigate now. The fact is, there never has been any show for the election of a straight r. publican ticket in New York city. and while the Independents have dane foolish and provoking things, il has been piece of bull-1eaded politics whenever PIatt and Quigg have in- sisted On 2 straight pMty ttckee.

Governor Murphy has reason to be proud of his achievements at the Wichita Trans-MisSissippi congress. He led the movement there for racom- mendations to the national congress in favor of statehood and the cossion of the arid lands to the states and terri tories containing them, and the con- gress adopted very strcng resolutions favoring statehood, the ces#on of all public lands under restrictions, the un- conditional cession Of million acres to the states and territories interested. and recommending federal aid in their reclamation. Arizona, which is vitaIlv Interested in these questions, is fortu- nate in being so ably represented at the Trans Mississippi congress, q body whose recommendations have hereto fore carried great weight at Wash ington. Governor Murphy has devoted much thought to these questions. and his convincing arguments had a good effect.
