Death of a Former Teacher In Our
school.
The sad news of the sudden and unex-
pected death of Miss Daisy May Gushing
of Jamaica was received by her friends
here Sunday morning in a despatch from
her parents. She died Saturday evening.
Only two days previous she was out riding
and was bright and cheerful as usual She
had been under the care of her physician
for some time, but was not alarmingly i'll
until the day before her death, when a
consultation of physicians was called and
her disease was pronounced diabetes.
Miss Gushing was 20 years old. She
was born in Warwick, Mass, and moved
with her parents to Jamaica six years ago.
She had been very successful teacher for
five years. She taught three terms here
and was beloved by both pupils and par
ents. She possessed a bright, sunny
nature which made her greatly loved, not
only in her own home, but by her friends
everywhere. The funeral was held Mon
day in Jamaica and was largely attended
by friends in that town and Townshend.
Mrs. Knight and Mrs. Hopkins from this
place were present. There was profusion
of floral offerings, covering the casket and
the floor around it. The family have the
sympathy of all.
Walter Simonds's Oldest daughter is
very Ill, but is improving little.
A delegation of II or Is from the Dunn

DESTRUCTION OF TRUSTS.

Tho trust, meaning cooperation,
com bination Of maximum production,
with minimum cost, Is most striking,
permanent and valuable feature of the
worlds progress.
The fight against it Is rs unwise,
foolish and hopeless rs was the battle
against the labor-saving machinery.
II will not and should not be won 1t
Is the trust OF the future.
But the trust Of today, accurately
described, is conspiracy against the
public welfare, 1t is combination to
mouopoli2e production and strangle
competition, TO combine the cheapest
cost Of production with the highest
selling price, and to take from the
people all the benefits Of improved
machinery and methods.
Against such trusts the law is help
less--dead 1t exists to suppress the
trust, and the trust owns and controls
1t. .. aHs# s'...I
When the trust shall make competi-
tion merely Improbable, competition
need not complain, Its loss will be
the peoples gain.
But the trust that makes competi-
ton impossible is the public enemy,
aud such is the trust today,
The most important fight Of the peo-
pie, this year and for long time to
come, must be the antitrust fight.
The cause OF reformed currency may
be important.
But what good can it do to have the
right kind of money If you allow few
trusts to get all of it--gold, silver or
paperP
Civilized people live somewhat after
this fashion:
The great majority work, and the
work of one man is exchanged for the
work of anothcr-money acting as a
medium, as counters"
In addition to those who work, a
few who are cunning, the so-called
educated" or superior" manage TO
live on the work Of others.
These cunning members are not
useless-on the contrary they are the
most useful men in the community.
They devise new methods; they organ
lie and combine and economize. They
invent, they are the bosses, and their
opportunity comes to them from two
sources-frst from free fields of com
petition; second from the scale OF
wages enabling the willing and indus
trious to get ahead.
There is third class the heridi-
tary lazy class. This anomalous ag-
gregation Of worthlessnesS lives on the
accumulation Of cunning dead and
buried.
But hitherto dissipation and idleness
have wiped out the idle class fast
enough.

For every great field Of industry n
trust exists or is coming,
, The individual with his single abili-
ty, has no longer the chance Of oldcn
times. He fights, not against an indi-
vidual like himself but against the
power of organized capital,
The inevitable result must be, Of
course, the division Of the nation into
two classes-a small class of employers
and vast class Of employed.
There is no necessity of getting
greatly alarmed over It, The thing 10
do is to investigate the probable result
quietly and to wonder how long II will
take for the disease to run its course.
OF course the trust program once per-
fected, will soon cease TO exist Edu-
cation and the American tendency TO
vary justice with lynching makes pro-
longed injustice impossible.
The general trust growth, in fact,
will probably do great good, although
that is no excuse for failing to fight
the present criminal tendency us 1t de-
vcops.
Trusts perfected impress on all the
folly of the stupid competitive system,
Of the cut-throat scrample for n living,
which decent management would as
sure to all on decent basis.
The trusts will never be dissolved;
industry will never go back to its
primitive individual competitive condi-
tion. But the trusts will become ma.
tional; the profits will become nation
al, and the great saving Of labor will
mean leisure for the citizen TO study,
think, recreate and be man.
OF course this approaches hidcous,
red-eyed Socialism. The mere fact
that no man has ever amounted to any
thing unless he had a chance to be
partially idle, is no argument-yet-
in favor of giving reasonable idleness
to all.
But it will be an argument some
day, The common, low-down citizen
will take dislike eventually to the
superior citizen wko says to him: "You
work; you are common and fit for that
1t is for me, the superior, TO enjoy
thought and leisure"
The conservative reader asks: "What
would you take away from the race
the necessary slavery of common toilP
Don't you know you would ruin the
masses if you gave them leisureP"
True, just now. But as fast rs the
masses become as we'll educated as you
are-which is not SO very we'll educa-
ted--they will be as capable Of enjoy
ing leisure without excess as you are
Watch the trusts. Fight them when
it comes to voting for Aght them you
must, since eventually the men who
own them must be treated as pirates
are treated usually. The owner of
trust, the manager Of trust, holds in
slavery both mans necessities and his
labor Such person must be done
away with sooner or later.
But just as commerce and civiliza-
tion today are indebted to the early
pirates who did so much to advance
the worlds growth and acquaintance
with itself, so the civilization of the
future will be indebted to the trust
pirates of today and Of future years.
