Activity in the formation of trusts
continues undated. The record of
a day which does not reach into the
hundred millions of combined capital
is a poor one indeed. And all OF
them are setting in their work
promptly. The felt trust, which is
among The latest born, sets out with
the bold declaration that its purpose
is to crush what it calls "unhealthy
competition" The rubber trust
delicately intimates that it will
"bring together the leading manu-
facturers." The tin plate trust pro-
poses to make it difficult for out
side mills to obtain the raw material
required for the manufacture" One
and all, with unblushing audacity,
begin their career with operations in
restraint of trade. What is to be
done about it2 We have law which
says this is criminal; and yet the law
is defed. Is the trouble with the
law itself, or with its enforcement

Topeka legislative Qossin.

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 20.-A bill
which has as its object the establish.
ment OF as important an industry at
the state penitentiary as the binding
Irvine plant, was introduced in the
senate today by Senator Lupfer aud IN
the house by Jas. Lawrence. The
bill provides for the establishment OF
a school furniture factory, the labor
to be performed by cOnvicts, under
the SUPPLEMENTARY of the warden.
The product Of this factory is to be
sold only to the school districts and
boards Of education of the state at %
per cent more than the actual cost of
manufacture. All of the school furni-
lure sold in this state at present is
manufactured in the east and this
plant would interfere with no private
corporation or industry in the state.
Colonel G. j. Carver of Wellington,
drafted the bill. 1t is modelled after
the binding twine bill and will furn-
ish work for forty convicts. As in
the case of the binding Irvine plant,
this bill contemplates placing the
state in the attitude of bucking
another trust. School furniture has
always been one Of the biggest items
Of expense to the district schools, and
this bill promises relief.

office OF matron of the state house.
The bill states that the matron "shall
perform the usual duties OF such an
office" and she shall receive salary
OF $50 per month. Justwhat a matrOn

pointed for insane asylums and
orphan asylums to look after the
inmates. Just who matTUn would
look after around the state house is
not stated in the bill. Mr.. WEIGH
said he did not know much about
it. He introduced the bill at the
request of Mrs. F. B. Bigler of Topeka.

The.fght of this mornings session
was upon a motion by Wheatley of
Crawford, to advance on the calendar
the bill providing that the fees COL
lected by the state oil INSPECTOR shall
be turned into the state treasury
when they exceed $1,000. This is to
be accomplished by requiring dupli-
cate receipts from all dealers in oils
aud gasoline. 1t is estimated that
this measure will increase the general
revenues Of the state $1,000 a year.
The minority professed 10 be for the
measure but voted sOlidly against its
advancement on the calendar. This
is the bill which the Standard Oil
trust has been fighting and its ad-
vancement on the calendar was sprung
as surprise on the lobby this mora.
ing. 1t will in all probability pass
