Flint Lsalle Ball Game a Good
Exhibition.
WAS CLOSE AND EXCITING
Won by kamshameha Over STARE
An Enthusiastic Crowd-Work
OF the 10 Men.

II the base ball players will continue
10 put up such ball as was played Sat
urday in the opening game there Is no
doubt of the seasons success. From
the time when the first ball was
pitched to the last put-out there was
continual excitement and the result
was always in doubt. The Rams"
finally won. But =. was no walk-over
and to this the score of to 6 will tes-
tify. No one would have thought that
1t was the first game. Errors were
comparatively few and were in several
instances the result of trying for hard
chances. Both teams batted we'll, most
of the hits being clean and free from
the scratch order. The pitchers
twirled in fairly good form, the Rams
having slightly the best Of 1t in this
department. This was evened up,
however, by the catching Of German,
who stopped everything within reach
and played like demon clear through.
In individual work Moore was the star,
he having five put-outs and a number
OF assists to his credit. The coaching
of McNichol and German for the Stars
and Wise for the Kamehamehas, was
fnll Of that spirit SO dear to the heart
of the fan" And what is more, the
crowd. which was large, actually en-
Unused. In the eighth inning, when,
with the score 4 to against them the
Kams filed the bases and Burgess
lined out a three-bagger the din was
deafening. The umpiring of balls and
strikes by Jack" Winter and of bases
by Keohakalole gave complete satisfac-
tiOn on account Of the strict fairness.
The whole game was remarkably free
from kicking" the boys seeming to
realize that they must be on their good
behavior on their first appearance.
Cuba, the Stars mascot. felt the result
deeply. In the last of the seventh.
when his team was one ahead he let
ont one triumphant bark, but when
the Kans began to pile up their bunch
of FIVE runs he lay down and would
not be comforted. Jock" Carter. the
manager OF the Stars, declined to be
interviewed after the game. All he
would say was next time"
The kams were first up. They went
out in one, 1.-TWO, three order and the
Stars followed suit. In the second
Burgess and kekuewa scored for the
Rams, while the Stars were again pre-.
scented with a goose-egg. Mahuka
scored in the third, and Moore and
Thompson did the same for the Stars
Three up and three out was the Kams
portion in the fourth, while Hart
pulled run for the Stars, tieing the
score. In the fifth and sixth two big
Zeros were hung out for each team. In
the seventh the Kams kept up the
good work, while the Stars broke the
spell by Moore scoring. In the eighth
the Rams played ball and scored five
runs, the Stars being shut out. The
Rams failed to score in the ninth, and
after hard effort the Stars got in
two, Hart and Jackson. Score Sc, in
favor OF Kamehameha.

eral Sir Harry Smith, whose marriage
was romance Of the Peninsular war.
The following is the story as it has
beer unearthed by the London ChrOn-
icle: zone evening two young officers
in Spanish town which the British
troops had occupied were visited by
two young men and beautiful Spanish
girls If high degree, who begged their
protection in the alarming circum-

1t was, Of course, given with the ut
most gallantry, aud 10 a very short
time Captain Smith found himself
desperately in love with one OF the
young ladies, who In due time became
his wife. The marriage proved most
happy one, and long years afterward,

How the Trusts are ROb5ing the People.

According to Senator Sherman the
sugar trust had originally capital Of
S9.ooo,oo It's stock was watered up to
sos, 900, 900 and this whole sos, 900
has been earning II per cent dividends
besides paying enormous salaries to all
the larger stock holders in it. Here
is a profit of over 100 per cent each
year. The Western Union Telegraph
company has been making over 100 per
cent. each year upon its investment for
years. No one knows what the Stand
ard Oil company makes. They have de-
fed state courts and even the United
States courts in all demands made upon
them looking toward any investigation
of this business. Both the German gov
eminent and the Russian government
tried to prevent their getting control Of
their oil fields and the business there
and failed, The same weapon used SC
successfully where bribery Of the courts
had its effects there and today this con-
Germ, the parent of all other trusts, stands
absolute master of the oil product Of the
world. Its profits are without doubt
more than 100 per cent. yearly upon its
capital. 1t is rapidly extending its con-
troll over many other lines of business.
It's president, the wealthiest man in the
world, is also the greatest law-breaker
and criminal on earth today and should
be in the penitentiary. These are but
samples. A well established trust whose
stock is not watered to ten times its or
riginal capital and which is not making
100 per cent upon its real capital is not
considered a success by its promoters.
Many of those, such as the sugar trust
and the tin plate trust have received di-
rect aid and assistance from congress
when all of these facts were
known. Many like these two depend
almost entirely upon the tariff for their
enormous profits.

Tax Figures.

County Clerk W. E. Wood and his
deputy, j. Robert Gillian, have just
completed the apportionment Of taxes
for 1899. The following interesting
facts are CLEANED from their books:
The total amount OF taxes levied
for the year is $3.50, 4ll16. or this
amount, Sl64, S631S is apportiOued to
the general fund, and divided up under
four heads as follows: state, county,
city and township. The state tax is
S35, 665.74; county, SCI, 6Ol 90; city,
S22, 10000; township, S44,S94.92. The
county, city and township funds are
subdivided into various different
funds.
The school tax this year is SS4,l4l..
O9-and increase of $4,000 over last
year, This is the district school,
tax, and does not include the County
High school tax, which comes in
under the head Of county tax. The
county taxes this year is $500 less
than last year.
The road tax for 1899 is 81, 296.07
the surveyors tax, s24; the Sidewalk
tax, $685..
The total amount OF taxes for thi
year is Sl2,095.1O greater than las
year. This is on account of the in

in the trusts or under their influence.
What did the closing of eighty mills in
the tin trust do for the laboring men!
Does the closing of $500 independent
telephone and telegraph concerns an
nounced in the new telephone and tele-
graph trust in Fridays dispatches lower
prices and help the prosperity of the men
thrown out OF employment? Did the
closing of the barbed wire mill at Law
renee help that city or tie people en-
ployed in that industry? Did the closing
Of the starch factory and the cracker
factories of this city by the trusts help
Topeka? The Journal lodges every
serious issue in the trust question, and
pettifogs on the prices Of butter and po-
tatoes. The crime of the trusts, which
we wish the Journal to meet squarely, II
It is going to defend them, is, first, that
capital thus organized forces out OF ex.
istence in every line Of manufactured
goods thousands of plants and tens OF
thousands of laborers for the purpose OF
absolutely controlling the output OF the
goods as well as the prices; and, second,
that industrial" stocks are issued by
these trusts from ten to fifty times the
cash value of the plants and these stocks
form the basis of stock gambling and
speculation menacing the business OF the
entire country. These trusts, as the
Journal knows, have been formed Tor the
purpose of making extravagant profits,
and this can emily be done by closing fac
tories, throwing tens of thousands OF men
out of employment, and raising prices be-
cause they have the power to do so, re-
CARELESS of the law of supply and de-
mand.
No such scheme of robbery has ever
before been created. 1t reaches and
touches every man, woman and child III
the nation.
We suggest to our contemporary, the
Journal, that the next time 1t offers a
defense of the trusts and assures Its
readers THAT prices 60 up and down
without regard to trusts or other infiu-
ences and simply in response to the law
of supply and demand" that it instru"ts
the telegraph editor to carefully examine
the dispatches and eliminate all news OF
trusts that will destroy the editorial ar
gument. In the same copy of the Jour
nal of last Friday, on page seven, the
following appeared over a Washington,
tD.C., dispatch of half a column:

The most open and defiant violators OF
law today in Sumner county are the ex-
press and telegraph companies. The law
compels them to pay for the revenue
stamps, and is so plain that the federal
courts, subject to influence as they are,
would not dare say that the companies
should not pay. If law orders an or
binary citizen to do anything it is quickly
decided and lie pays the penalty for vio-
lation during the time the case was pend
ing. Not so these great corporations
which have grown rich by charging
exorbitant rates and are making one OF
them the Western Union, 100 per cent
each year upon its investment. They
have sufficient influence to keep the case
in court indefinitely and pending the de-
cision they refuse to pay the revenue
What care tsey what laws are passed 81
long as they can control the courts' In
definite postponement of a decision is to
them as good as a decision in their favor
No wonder people generally are losing
confidence in the courts. The wonder is
that people are as patient as they are I'M
der the intolerable abuses which are the
rule and not the exception. Justice with
poor man or the public upon one side
and great corporation upon the other is
the exception in our federal courts today.

the McEnery resolution which was after

Major Hudson, editor of the Topeka
Capital, is doing some valiant work
fighting the trusts, the same as he and
the editor of the Wichita Eagle and
most other Republican editors in Kansas
did III 1896 in favor Of free coinage of
silver previous to the national conven-
ton. From that day they were all gold
bugs. They had received their orders,
and like good little boys they all obeyed
them. Not long since the Capital had a
six-column editorial showing how every
thing manufactured had risen in price,
sometimes 100 per cent, and that the
trusts are responsible for it and pointing
out the iniquities and dangers that must
follow. And now the major finds new
antagonist. The Kansas City Journal,
the most widely read Republican paper
in Kansas is as he charges repeatedly a
defender of the trusts. He might 90
farther and include Mark Hanna and
many others who shape Republican plat
forms. Get ready major to do what YOU
and all Kansas Republicans did in 1896,
on the silver question. Go back on all
your past record and become an apologist
for the trusts or give up your job to one
who will bow the knee more gracefully
than YOU. The case is too open and
plain. The leaders of your party know
that it will be impossible to make the
people believe the Republican party in,
tends doing anything against the tausts
and then an enormous campaign fund
must-be raised with which to purchase
McKinley's reelection. There is nc
other source from which to draw it
The trusts will demand promises of pro
lection and will receive them, and thu

will after the next Republican conven
ton, do..as the Journal and many othe
Republican papers are now doing and a
the convention will do, be silent upon tn
question or become their apOlogists an,

Don't you want to buy a bicycle to
