TO CONTROL THE TRUSTS.

A telegram from Washington says that George L. Douglas, republi- can and member of the Marquette club of Chicago, has formulated a plan for controlling the trusts which if it should be adopted will take the wind out of the sails of the proposed democratic platform for 1900. The Marquette club played an important part in the early canvass for Maj. Mckinley, and it is said will blaze the way for a far-reaching political move in the coming presidential campaign by espousing NIT. Doug las plan, which is to bring the trusts under federal jurisdiction by secur- ing the adoption of a constitutional amendment giving congress full authority to regulate and control the big combinations known as trusts.
 Attorney General Griggs, in re cent letter, showed that under our peculiarsystem of divided jurisdic- ton it was impossible for United States attorneys to carry on success ful action against the sO-called trusts. He pointed out that only the state courts had necessary juris - dIctIOn, but past experience has not shown many important results from the efforts Of state authorities. With forty-6ve states and as many differ ent laws, the situation is as chaotic as the widest Of opera bOufes-
 Democratic leaders hope to score on the republicans next year, by de- uouncing the trusts and charging their origin 10 the protective tariff Douglas would extract the fangs from this issue by having the repub- lican congress, next winter, pass a resolution for submission to the states or a constitutional amend ment bringing trusts under the Juris- diction Of the nation legislative and judicial authorities.
 Douglas thinks the republicans would not only turn the flank of the democrats. but would sail serenely through the campaign, gaining credit for proposing a practical method of curbing trusts

The Naked Man. Prn,er.

Hastings, England, has a free circu. every day at noon. At that hour an old gentleman parades in the front garden of his fine residence. perfectly naked except for loin cloth, a turban and sandals. The turban and sandals blaze with jewels. He prostrates himself be fore a little pagoda, wherein squats an ugly idol with diamond eyes. There is always a crowd 10 watch these devo- tions. If one questions the old gentle. man he answers, testily: What am l doing, eh? I'm praying for the conver- sion of this benighted land to Bud dhism. That's what I'm doing"

BRiGAOlER GENERAL
 SCORES THE CRITICS.



 Brigadier General Otis of the Los Angeles Times, who was an active participant in the Philippine camp aign, pays his respects to the war critics who assume to know more about the campaign and how 1t should be conducted than those who are on the ground, 10 the following forcible manner:
 "It IS lamentable fact that no general ever conducted a campaign anywhere without the critic and the fault-6nder making himself heard in a raucous tone of voice. When Ulysses $. Grant was pounding the heart out of the enemy in the Wild erness in front of Richmond he was called bloody butcher" by these same kickers and fault finders; they declared that Abraham Lincoln was fool and an ape when he was carry ing the weight of the civil war upon his great shoulders and the sorrows of the people in his tender heart; {; they said at the beginning of Grants career that he was a drunkard; they asserted over and over again the dark and bloody days of the eos. that Gen. William Tecumseh Sher- man was crazy; they uPbraided Phil Sheridan for his raids in the Shenan- doah valley; they found fault with Hallock, and Hooker, and Burnside, aud Meade, and Rosecrans, and ! Stoneman, and Garfield, and Pap l Thomas. and Steele, and all the other great commanders who fought the battles of the union aud saved the ] United States from eternal disaster in that mighty war between the states; they carped at Miles and Crook when the Apaches were being run to earth across the burning des- erts and through the rocky canyons of Arizona; they sat in judgment upon Shalter; who accomplished such a wonderful feat in compelling the equalization of the Spanish forces at Santiago, and, therefore it IS not to be expected that Major General Otis, who is working per haps harder than any man in Amer lea. should escape fire from the thIowers of brick bats and paper wads.
 "It is perfectly safe to say that whatever has been done by the com mander in the Philippines has arisen from the most pure and patriotic motives, and 1t is safe 10 say further ! that that officer knows more about the real conditions of things, the military necessities of the case, and that he is better bulwarked by dis cretion than all the newspaper men in the islands, even though they be the wisest civilians that eyer touched of cablegram or set their sigma tares to round robin
 "Major-General Otis is the man who is carrying the load of respon- sibility at Manila, and not the news paper correspondents. Success OI failure there means more to him than to all the newspaper writers 1T ! Christendom, and the American peo pie may rest assured that he is bear ing the burden with surpassing patience, with splendid loyalty and patriotism. and with the ability thai comes from long years of military training. If he has encountered un , forseen obstacles he will surmount them all in good time, and even i he has not brought the rebels under , subjection in the course of a twenty week campaign We respectfully sub init that there have been longer campaigns even when the command ar thereof was not 1000 miles from his base of supplies"
