in oAHooTs WITH TRUSTS.
How Railroads Have Helped to Crush
Competition


Tho Industrial Commission, appoint
ed under recent act OF congress, !
now In session at Washington, con
ductlng an investigation of trusts
Perhaps the most interesting teatimon!
thus far given was that OF Mr., Monet
Attorney'General OF Ohio, who appear
cd before the commission last week
Although he confined himself entirely
to the Standard Oil Trust against
which he has been protesting In hif
official capacity in ohioi yet, what Ii
true OF one trust ia true also OF Others,
Mr. Monet declared that the rail-
roads were the chief promoters and
the most powerful agencies Of trusts,
and that the only way TO curb trusts
would DO TO control the railroads.
This was certainly true he said OF tho
STANDARD Oil Trust, Of which his re-
cent Investigations enable him to
speak with knowledge and accuracy.
He made the statement that the rail-
road determinations In favor Of the
Standard Oil Company against the
ordinary citizen would equal 400 per
cent? and not only this, but that the
Trust had secured the services Of the
railroads, through their agents, all
over the country to report upon the
movements Of their rivals and secure
data upon which the Trust could OPP
crate; and that when the rivals were
driven out Of the field by reduction Of
rates, prices Immediately went up. Mr..
Monett also stated that tho Western
Union Telegraph Company, acting as n
common carrier, made cheaper rate
to the constituent members Of the
Trust than the other customers, Con-
he gave II us his opinion that
the only way TO control trusts would
be for the courts to control the rail
roads, and that II this could not be
done the charters Of the roads should
be taken away from them,
We agree entirely with Mr.. Monet
us to the railroads being one OF the
chief causes OF trusts, but we think
the people have become Disguised
with such court and legislative con-
troll Of railroads as we have had in
the past and are likely to continue TO
have. The control, in fact, is all the
other way, and will continue so until
the people themselves own these great
public utilities. Take the railroads
from the control of few individuals
and let the government operate them
for the public good so that transporta-
lion facilities will be equal and alike
for all, and you remove ono of the
great causes which produce trusts.

Four Pillars OF Republic.

From the mountain of eternal Truth
Jefferson carved the four great pillars
upon which all just government must
rest.
"All men are created equal"
"All men are endowed with inalien-
able rights"
"All governments are instituted
among men to preserve those rights. ="
"All governments derive their just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned."
On these four pillars of Truth rests
the freedom of 7O,OOO,OOO Of Ameri'
cans.

science and. a Confession.
A
SAN FItAN8sCO, Aug 14-Miss Flor
ence M. Campbell, when she confessed
to the author of the poison plot that so
greatly excited this city, also gave a.
remarkable psychological display. From
her story we know just how 1t feels to
dig pit for another's feet and step into
It,
Writing. with the wholly imaginary
pangs of arsenic poisoning and gasping
with the very real spasms consequent on
the use of emetics Miss Campbell was
sick unto her soul that she had attempted
the role Of Borgia with Machaiavelian
trimmings. .>
She got her, tdeas of course, from the
Botdn case-that murder which taught
new crime to a thousand Jealous crazed
women. Dunning, the husband Of Mrs.
Botkin's victim was a newspaper CORE
correspondent, The two men were to-
gether with the army before the opera
tions against Santiago. It. was very
natural that. Rathom should talk over
the awful tragedy in his friend affairs
with the woman who was to him what
Mrs. Botkin was to Dunning. Miss Camp
bell, well-born. welI-bred. well-educated,
applied the BotSin reasoning to her own
case and thought she saw an opportunity
to improve on the murder that sent Mrs
Botllin to prison for life: There was a
mixed motive in the case. Mrs. Rathom
was threatening her husband with di-
vorce suit because Of. his relations with
Miss Campbell and the latter thought
out the scheme, in part at least, in order
that she might > have something with
which to blackmaIl the injured wife into
silence.
The denoument Of the plot was artistic
and exciting.
First the public became aware that an
attempt had been made to poison Miss
Campbell with arsenic in cherries and
that her landIady; Mrs. schelb, had also
partaken of the sweets and had also
| been made very. Ill.
Inc next step was the testing Oh Tile
| box of candied cherries.
i There is enough arsenic here to Kill a
| herd of cows was the chemists report.
Then the police made the discovery that
| the address on the box was In the hand
| writing of Mrs.. John Rathom. whose pos
sible motive was no deep secret.
So far it was all as Miss Campbell had
| planned. a .
Then John r Rathom entered upon the
scene. He declared his positive belief
that neither his wife nor Miss Campbell
sent the poisoned candles, but he was not
| prepared to say that he did not send
/ them himself. ID
He made very frank confession of his
own wrong doings, He admitted that he
had behaved in a .disgraceful way toward
both his wife and Miss Campbell and de-
clared that he fully deserved any trouble
which might come upon him. -
/ 4. He introduced further complications
into the mystery by revealing PROPOSE
ton which he said Mrs. Schetb, wife oil
Mr.. Scheib, WITH whom Miss Campbell
lived. had made to him. Mr.. scheib came

and Miss Campbell You must go to- her
and make her pay the doctors bills, and
sign a paper that she will leave the state
and not seek a divorce from you. Then
YOU can. get a divorce from her on the
ground of desertfon and marry Miss
Campbell" Ter
scheib stoutly dshtsd that he ever made
such q propositions and declared that RAJ
Thorn had utterly distorted what he said.
1t took a month to disentangle the ugly
skein. During that etime Miss Campbell
Indignantly denied that she had mailed
lice plodded along, proved Mrs. Rathom's
innocence and gradually brought the
matter home to Miss Campbell, and that
young woman at last confessed it all.
My only object, IN mailing this pois-
oned candy was because Mrs. Rathom

sibly I could frfghter her from using my
name publicly, ana that was my whole
object in doing 1t.
st asure you Fnever had any thought
of injuring anybody, and the poisoned
candy was safely tucked in the bottom of
the basket, the top layers being perfectly
free from any arsenic

Agreement Reached Between N. p.
and Oregon Navigation.


NEW YORK, Aug. 1s-The directors
of the Oregon Railway & Navigation
company have ratified the truce concIud-
ed by E. H. Hartman, representing the
interests of that company, and President
Mellen, of the Northern Pacific Railway
company, whereby railroad construction
In the Clearwater country has been sus-
pended for six months. Mr. Hartman
said on Tuesday that there was no basis
for rumors that any agreement as to
trackage rights or on any other point
had been arranged, the sole agreement
being that the controversy between the
two roads was to be in allegiance for the
next six months. President MeIlen, on
the other hand, said last night:
eve have done more than agree on a
truce for six months. We have even be-
gun to reach a basis of settlement. We
are working On plans for a settlement
right along, and there will be no fight
in the Clearwater country. l always in
sisted there would be none. We would
have had far less trouble had the news
papers not made so much Of the trouble
which was bad enough as 1t was. There
are many details to be worked out, and
It may be some time before a final set
Element Is accomplished
In answer to a question regarding the
line he threatened to build from Lewis
ton to Portland, Mr.. Mellen said, as
quoted:
Should we have had to build that line,
we would have had easy grades most Of
the way, contrary to q general impress
sion We would have built along the
south side Of the Columbia river to AIMS

and then built to Portland along the
north side. But that line will never be
