That many Of the recently organized
trusts will fail is reasonably certain;
that their collapse will cause great dis
turbance in business and financial cir
cles is more than probable. But others
will take their places, or they will be
gcbbled up by the larger corporations,
as is now being done in the iron and
steel industries, where a single gigan-
tic trust may Dol control all branches
Of these industries, from the ore mines
TO the consumers of the finished pro-
duct. Along with several millions Of
American voters, we believe the only
true remedy for this powerful and
growing evil lies i the adoption Of a
strong antitrust plank in the plat
form of the national democracy. We
believe this will be done and that the
utterance accompanying its adoption
WILL be so plain as to leave no doubt Of
is sincerity. The sentiment exists in
he hearts Of the people; it only re-
hains to be expressed by them
through the party platform.-Greens-
orc Patriot.

went out to the pasture a few days ago
to drive in some hogs. In the lot was
|; a SOW with several young pigs. In
some way the hog became wrathy and
attacked the boy, knocking him down
and biting one leg in several places.
No one was near enough to aid him
and it began to look squally for the
little fellow, but a dog had followed
him and seeing the fight raging took a
hand, attacking the SOW and drawing
off her attention, when the boy got up
and mad tracks.
Wilkesboro Chronicle: A note from
D. D. Anderson says that in his neigh

Elkville, a week or so ago, a negro boy
narrowly escaped being bitten by a rat
tlesnake. The snake was coiled up IN
der the husk frame and the boy, in
looking around in the mill, saw it and
thought it was a bottle of liquor which
: some one had hidden there, and think
ing a little smile" would do him good,
started to pick it up. The miller say
