MICHIGAN WINS AGAIN.
University of Chicago students Defeated In
Joint debate.


Joint debate.
Chicago, April 10.-Tho University of
Michigan scored another triumph over
the University of Chicago. being unan-
imously awarded the decision in the
joint debate. which took place at Stude-
baker hall, upon the question. Admit
ting 1t To Be Constitutional, Is a Fed
eral Graduated Income Tax Desirable
in This Country?" Beaten at football
and baseball by the University of Mich
igan, and unable to score more than a
tie at track athletics, the University Of
Chicago put forth it's ablest orators and
debaters to present the negative of the
question for discussion.
The University of Michigan had the
affirmative, and, after listening with the
closet attention to the arguments of the
representatives of each college, the
judges unanimously decided, without
consultation, that Michigan was enti-
tied to the honors Of the evening. The
three men who so ably represented their
college were Charles Simons, Sigmond
Sanger, and George Kingsley. Their
opponents from the University of Chi
cago were Thomas c. Clendening, Law
renee M Jacobs, and Maurice Mande-
vile. Considerable interest in the out
come was manifested by the students
from the University of Chicago. The
three representatives entered the con-
test expecting an easy victory.

MR.. BRYAN'S MISTAKE.
The SilYer-Tongued Orator sounds
Some False Notes on HIS Ban
$50, auet BazOo.

Mr.. BRYAN availed himself of recent
opportunity offered by banquet to say
that lat the present time the gold
standard is maintained at the dictation
of foreign financial interests and
against the protest of large majority
of the American people" The only pop
ular protests which have been heard
lately regarding gold are made by peo-
pie who find ii inconvenient to carry
around even comparatively small
quantity of gold coin. They are not
protesting against the gold standard.
What they want is gold standard paper,
not always crisp and clean, but always
worth it's face in gold coin. Those men
who object to the physical use of gold
because it is bulky are of all people the
ones who do not want the silver stand
ard, for with that standard they would
have to lug about with them 20 silver
dollars as the specie equivalent in value
Of an eagle. Evidently Bryan misin-
terprets the significance of what he
sees in the papers about protests
against the use of gold. Few Ameri-
cans now are Directing honestly to the
gold standard, because the productivity
of the gold mines has knocked the bot
tom out of the yarn that gold was
scarce" This years output of gold
will amount to about $340,000,000. Not
over S65,000,000 of that will be used in
the arts. That will leave n surplus of
$275,00C,000 for monetary purposes.
This will much more than make good
the wear and tear of existing stocks and
meet the demand for new gold occa-
stoned by the increase in trade and COM
merce throughout the world.-Chicago

INCLINED TO RETALIATE.
Our Government DispleBsed with
Cnnndn's Action In Hindering
Negotiations In London.

Washington, May 27.-There is lit
tie doubt that our government is in
clined to retaliatory considerations
against Canada by the discouraging
results of the negotiations in London
looking to the clearing of the field for
the reassembling of the joint Canadian
commission. 1t is gathered that the
British foreign Office, which had seemed
DESTROYS to meet Mr.. Choate's advances
in the spirit of compromise that prom
ised well, has been again influenced by
Canada's refusal to agree to anything
less than Il concession of all of her
demands, which has stopped all prog
ress.

cision from Secretary Gage is expected

THE TRUST ISSUE.
Will Hardly Figure ms Fenture
I'm the Coming National
Campaign.

Many states, without distinction as
to the party controlling the legislature,
have made the past few months mem
orable for their attempts to destroy or
regulate trusts. There seems to have
been common concurrence in the view,
especially since Acknowledgement
Griggs pointed out the misapprehen-
sions as to the force and effect Of the
federal laws relating to trusts, that any
attack upon the great industrial mo-
nopolies must have state initiative.
The federal courts, under decision OF
1894, cannot suppress n combination or
monopoly for manufacturing n neces-
sary of life. The government prose
cutes unlawful combinations affecting
interstate commerce, but many of the
trusts do not come under this head.
"If amenablc to any law says the at
torney-general, "they are amenable to
the laws of the respective states" Con-
sequently the states have been doing
what they could to get at the trusts,
and some of them have gone very far
in punitive legislation. Especially is
this the case in Michigan, where the
republican legislature is at work try
ing to shut trusts out of the state alto
gether.
If the regulation of trusts is state
affair and one upon which all parties
are agreed, it is difficult to see how
national campaign issue can be made
of it. a party might fight to plant an
antitrust clause in the constitution,
but it would have no other party for
an opponent except perhaps an organ
ization of trust capitalists. Certainly
the democracy will not be able to
maneuver, the republican party into
such a position. The average repuh-
lican is quite as much averse as the
average democrat to having his eX-
penses increased to make dividends on
watercd stock for constituencies cor
porations. If there is any doHbt on
that point look at his record in the va
rious antitrust legislatures and in pub
lie expressions of opinion. Mr. Bryan
himself is no more vigorous in his OPP
position to trusts than is Gov. Pingree
and score of other republican lead
crs: and if a representative republic
an here and there is tied up with trusts
he can be matched by n representative
democrat who is in the same fin The
cupidity that organizes trusts has no
partisan politics any more than the in
stinct of self-preservation has which re-
sists them.
Quite likely some of the drastic laws
passed by states will be adiudicated be-
fore the national campaigns begin.
Should they stand the test there will
be no need of any better weapons, and
n national antitrust campaign will be
more than ever a sheer waste of time

confessed that he poisoned his father
and his brother, the latter dying from
the poison, was arraigned in the police
court OIL the charge of murder in the
first degree. His attorney waived ex-
animation, and the boy was held to
answer to the grand jury without bail.
1t is thought that the grand jury may
recommend that the boy be sent to
