ADVOCATES TRUST.
Farmer Allen Declares the Combines To
 Be Good for the Country.

Topeka, Kas., September 13.-President Allen, of the Farmers, Federation of the Mississippi Valley, the big farmers trust recently organized here, having failed of appointment as a delegate to the Chicago trust conference has written an open letter to that gathering advocating trusts. He says:
 "The competition system has wrecked the world. It has dome more to destroy domestic peace and happiness than wars, pestence and famine. It has sent crimi- nals to the peintentary, lunatics to the asylums and filled our graveyards with drunkards and suicides. It has made the dread of failure the great evil of this life"
 The letter concludes as follows: This outcry against trusts does not come from the farmers of the Mississippi Valley who have begun to appreciate trusts as good thing and have formed one of their own for self-pro tee tion."

THE NEW REGIMENTS
More Than Third of the Men Needed
 Have Already Enlisted

Washington, September 13.-tSpecial.)-It was said at the war department today that more than third of the required number of men for the new regiments had already been enlisted. The president expressed great satisfaction today over the reports from the recruiting officers in the south. He feared that on account of the active anti-Philippine propaganda in that section there might be lack of enthusiasm among the young men of the south. Such is not the case, however In fact the opposite seems true.
 It is a singular coincidence that in Mas sachusetts, which is the headquarters for the anti-expansionist in the republican party, there have been more enlistments than in any other state. It Is stronger still that Texas should come second in propor- tion to her population. It was stated at the department today that Georgia and Ala bama were even with Illinois In enlist ments. and that both were far ahead of any of the states in the northwest. This shows the utter falsity of the statemens going the rounds in some of the republican press that the south was backward in sending men to the front.
