Mr. Bryan has devised "a. brand new
plan for controlling the trusts and given
it to an interviewer. Here it is.
There is no question that we can con-
troll the trusts If We want TO. Now, as to
The plan have suggested, the licensing
OF trusts, the idea is that the Government
should say that no corporation should do
business in any State IN which it WASH t
Incorporated, except under the license
Issued by the federal kauthorities. This
license should DO posted in the trust
plant in conspicuous place and kept
there, and there should be a penalty of
penitsntiary service for one to do business
with a corporation not having such q
license or for corporation to run In any
State save the one where 1t Is incorporat-
ed, without this license"
While trusts ara evils there may be
greater ones, ard to permit Federal offio-
ers TO determine where people should buy
and sell would he one of that kind. The
Democrats have always professed great
abhorTencs Of centralized govern
ment. and eontended for the rights Of the
states, but it is diiiiculs to cohesive of an
arrangement that would do more to GEN.

ment than to give to Federal officials the

sive treatise on the etiquette of the

THE WIND ACROSS THE CORN

There are songs whose very singing
Bring rest to tired hearts,
There are strains of sweet sweet music
That repentant tears oft start,
There are anthems grand and mighty
That of heaven itself seem born,
But to me the sweetest music
Makes the wind across the corn.
When DER the face of morning
The timid sunbeams stray,
And bring a touch of rOse-pink,
70 mingle with the gray,
And there falls hush eXpectant-
Strange, sweet stiffness of the morn,
IT'S then hear the singing
OF the wind across the corn.
Like lullaby low tfurmured
Soft and gentle, first it comes,
Then in louder tones, yelling,
On some chord by Nature strung,
Till the past and present vanish,
And anew my faith seems born,
In the good and pure-while listning
To the wind across the corn.

Goodnight! The hawk is in his nest,
And the last rock hath dropped to rest
There is no hum, no chirp. no bleat,
No rustic in the meadow sweet;
The woodbine, somewhere out Of sight
Sweetens the loneliness of night;
The Sister Stars, that once were seven,
Mourn for their missing mate in heaven
The poppy's fair, frail petals close,
The lilly yet more languid grows,
And dewy-freamy droops the rose
Goodnight!

Good Night.

Goodnight! Now dwindle wan and low
The EN- bers of the afterglow,
And slowly over leaf and lawn
Is twilight's dewy curtain drawn.
The slouching vixen leaves her lair
And, prowling, shifts the telltale air;
The frogs croak louder in the dixie,
And all the trees seem dark alike;
The bee is browsing in the comb,
The sharded beetle hath gone home

one of Teddy's blue scarfs knotted

The winter girl has also taken up

various sizes, some simply polka
