portation. The smelter has bought
his iron ore from a mining com
I pany which has paid royalties tc
a mine owner and freight charges
to another railroad.
The steel manufacturer buys coal
from another mining company
which ships it to him over still
another railroad. When he has
made his beams and angles he sends
them to his customers all over the
country by scores of different
routes, paying whatever freight
charges are exacted of him on each.
| When the trust goes into steel
manufacturing it uses it's own
steel, made from it's own iron,
brought from its own mines over
its own railroads or in it's own ships.
The ships themselves are built in
it's own yards, the railroad cars in
its own shops, and the rails over
which they run in it's own mills.
1t sends it's products to it's customers
over its own transportation routes,
and handles their drafts in it's own
banks.
The Independent producer has to
take the chances of the markets on
both sides. When he gets an order
he has no certainty that he will be
able to fill it without ruin. His
profits may be wiped out by a rise
in the price of materials, and if he
has protected himself by. contracts
there, he may be crushed by an in
crease in freight rates. Or rate
war may catch him heavily stocked
up at high prices and give his COM
petitors a chance to cut out his |
trade.
The trust takes no risks. It
operates on a sure thing. When it
books an order it knows exactly
where to lay its hands on every
thing needed to carry it out, and it
knows that nobody can intercept
profits before it collects them.
In the face of such advantages
competition becomes ridiculous.
The ordinary small manufacturer,
the man who was the mainstay of
American industry fifty years ago
the one with capital of half
million or million dollars-is, of
course, not to be thought of in such

millions are helpless in the pre-

Such a trust must be

States until the people dethrone it
by taking its powers into their own

THE APPROACH OF THE UNIVERSAL
TRUST.

LII rrluay journal appeared a
map which, to those who could
read its meaning, was portentous.
1t showed some of the principal
railroad lines to be controlled by the
new Vanderbilt Rockefeller combi-
nation, together with the centres of
industry dominated by the asso-
ciated trusts.
The railroads covered the entire
United States. Gridironing the
Eastern States, they threw out
their lines across the deserts and
mountains, along the routes Of the
Great Northern, the Northern Paci-
&c, the Union Pacific and the South
ern Pacific to the Western coast,
where they ranged up and down
the entire slope, from Los Angeles
to Seattle. They bound together
the Atlantic and the Pacific, the
Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico;
they paralleled the internal water
ways, crossed both our land from
tiers and touched almost every i'm
portant city in the Union. "In
Winter" it was said, 'transcon-
tinental traffic could be handled in
great part by Southern lines, thus
saving much for operating ac-
count" Thus the currents of a
nations life could be swung from
one section to another by little
group of capitalists, as similar
group swings the shopping and
theatre traffic on city's street car
lines, and communities would
flourish or wither as their masters
spoke the word.
But that is only the beginning.
At Buffalo were shown the elevators |
by which the Vanderbilts and
ROckefellers controlled the move
ment Of the nations wheat crops. |
At Cleveland converged the Rookie
Teller oil and iron ore interests. In
Western Pennsylvania were the oil
wells controlled by the Standard Oil
Company, and the gigantic iron and
steel industries ruled by the various
steel trusts. In West Virginia
Ind Indiana were more oil wells,
Ind in Alabama iron mines. In
Cincinnati and Louisville were dis
illeries, breweries and tobacco
warehouses; belonging to the
Nhiskey, Beer and Tobacco trusts,
n which the Rockefellers are in
crested. In Peoria were thiry-six
more distilleries Of the Whiskey
trust. In Michigan and Minnesota
we're Rockefeller iron mines.
All these are only few of the
ortresses Of commerce occupied by
he new dictators Of America. AL
most every strategic point in the
Union contains a Rockefeller Van
|erbilt garrison.

general opinion of the council that
without it no clean bill of health could
at the present time be given to any
dairy. However, various members of
the council agreed to visit the dairy
and pass judgment on the general san
itary appearance of the dairy farm and
cattle. In the meantime it was sug-
gested that proper tests could perhaps
be made at the territorial university,
and the recorder was instructed to cor
respond at once in regard to the mat
ter.
Mrs. a. J. Sturges was present and
in behalf of the W. c. T. L. requested
the council to exempt from taxation
their free reading room property in
keeping with the custom of former
years in the matter of both city and
county taxes. 1t was so ordered.
Chief FrOmm of the fire department
brought up the matter of battery jars
for the fire alarm system and he was
instructed to purchase two dozen.
His success in this effort emboldened
him to take the council into his conf
dence in another matter which lay
next to his heart. He desired to in
veigle the aldermen into a horse trade.
them to buy another team and dispose
of one of the teams now on hand
which seems TO be entirely too nervous
for work in a well regulated volunteer
fire department. There is nothing
wrong with the horses, only their tenn
permanent, and in the right place they
would prove a valuable team.
Mr.. Fromm had his heart set on q
team belonging to the gentleman from
the Fourth ward. When the latter
was appealed to he said that a trade
was out of the question, or at least IN
less he had the difference in value and
the privilege of trading back if dis
satisfied. On second thought, he said
he did not want to sell anyhow, much
less to the council, as it would occasion
comment. Mr.. Fickas moved the mat
ter be left to the street and alley COM
mittee with instructions to look up a
good team and report, and if necessary
to get the assistance of John Rock,
who knows almost everything about
horses.
Mr.. FrOmm had made a study of the
horse market and maintained that the
Sanders team was about the only real
thing" TO be found in this locality, and
intimated that Br. Sanders ought to be
made to sell, by an act of congress, if
necessary, but he accepted the compro-
mise as the best he could do for the
present.

THE REPORT PUT IN
Another Step Toward Public
Water Works.
The Committee Finds That a Munich
pal Water and Sewer System Can
Be Built for S395,00 and Urges
the Council to Early Action.

Another forward step was taken last
night toward a public water works
and sewer system. The report of the
committee appointed a month ago to
make an estimate upon the cost of a
municipal system was submitted before
a second mass meeting called at the
Patton Grand. The attendance was
fair, though by no means SO large as
at the mass meeting in which the com
mittee had it's birth. There was a gen
eral confidence that the report would
be in the interest of the public. The
only point in the report regarding
which there might be any curiosity
was the amount of the estimate, which
was expected to range from 5000 to
$500, 900.
The meeting was called to order by
Major ]. w. Evans, and DR.. L. H
Goodrich having been elected chairman
and Warwick Scott secretary. Major
Evans submitted the committees re-
port, which is as follows:
ITO the mayor, common council, tax
payers and citizens of Phoenix.
1.-The committee chosen by a citizens
mass meeting held November 18th, 1899,
to estimate the cost of an adequate
system of water works and sewerage.
herewith respectfully report that they
have made careful and extended invcs-
tigation as to the present prices for
water and sewer pipes, and other ma
terial, cost of pumping plant, boiler
house, machinery, land necessary for
plant, digging, trenching. laying Of
pipes, engineering, incidentals and
other details.
THE system mapped out by your
committee will undoubtedly meet all
the requirements of a city more than
twice the present population of Phoe-
nix and guarantee a first-class water
works and sewerage plant for the re-
Gently annexed additions, amply sup
plying all domestic purposes, fire pro-
lection and proper sanitary conditions.
Furthermore, we fully believe that
the interest on bonds, operating and
all other expenses can and will be
readily met by revenue received from
the plant and that the present rates
for water can be materially reduced in
a short time after the system is in full
working order; hence we urge the adj
visibility of early action in the mat
ter.
such action is heartily recommend
ed by your committee believing as they
do that the investment will be an i'm
mediate, satisfactory and paying one.
Each member has personally closely
examined the requisite expenditures
and all concur in the following figures
as liberal estimates: 100000 1.-TWO hum
bred and seventy thousand dollars for
water works, and $125,OOO Zone hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars) for
sewerage.
THE above figures are presented at
a time when the price of pipes and all

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Steps Taken Toward Milk Inspection.
Irvine Addition Ordinance.

a special meeting of the city council
was held last night at which several
important matters were discussed and
some progress made. Mayor CAM be
ing unable to attend by reason of his
recent illness, Councilman Dyer pre-
sided as acting mayor. The other
councilmen were all present.
After the auditing of a few bills the
matter of the improvement of the city
park in Neahr's addition was taken up
and discussed at some length. Mayor
CAM had been previously appointed as
committee of one to look into the
matter The acting mayor added
Councilmen Fickas and Morford to the
committee, which was given power to
proceed with such improvements as it
thought advisable.
The ordinance prepared by the city
attorney fulfilling the legal require
ments in the annexation to the city
corporation Of the northeast quarter of
the southeast quarter of section Z, be-
ing the Irvine addition, was then read
and, on motion, was passed unanimous
ly. \ motion directing the publication Of
the ordinance followed without dissent.
Councilman Sanders then brought up
the matter of the irrigating bitches on
Seventh avenue, which have been a
constant source of trouble for years.
He said that Messrs. Kilroy and Mont
gomery had consented to the supply
ing of those getting water through
this ditch, through a ditch that now
crosses the Montgomery addition, and
all that need be done prior to the filling
up of the Seventh avenue nuisances
was to secure the consent of those
using water, to the new arrangement.
The matter was left to the city en-
gineer and a committee consisting of
COuncilmen Sanders, Fickas and Nor
ford.
Councilman Fickas then made a mo-
ton that the city attorney be instruct
ed to draw an ordinance providing for
the inspection by a proper officer of
milk, meat, vegetables and other foods
used in the city, and that the ordinance
be ready to report upon at the next
meeting.
Attorney Frank Lyman then ad-
dressed the council in behalf of Mr..
Ray of the West End dairy. He said
that Mr.. Rays business had suffered
severely as the result of the recent
milk agitation, and certain random
statements made without proof being
offered. He said his client had no crit
icism TO offer on the position taken by
the public and by the council and
would gladly welcome the advent of a
milk Inspector. as there was no desire
on the part of the dairymen to endan-
ger the health of the community. De-
lays, however, are dangerous if real
cause for alarm exists, and whether it
does or not, delays are mighty eXpen-
sive to the milk men while suspicion
hangs over them and public patronage
is withheld. Mr.. Lyman, in behalf of
