A Sign Of the Times.

Now it is proclaimed by some of the
observers of the signs of the times that
the sugar trust is tottering to its fall.
War exists between the trust and indie
pendent re6ners, and the wholesale
market is in condition Of demoraliza-
ton quite unprecedented. Prices, the
reports go, have been cut to that extent
they are now below the cost of produc.
ton. The assertion is made that for
every dollar the independent reiners
are losing, the trust is losing Sl5, but
no explanation is made of this wide d.
vergence of the lines of misery. The
stock of the trust has been suffering in
the market, and the prophets declare
that the once impregnable monopoly is
losing its grip. Its big dividends on
an inflated capitalization seem to be
justifying Bourke Cockran's words at
the recent Chicago trust conference.
These combinations, he said, which are
paying extrayagant dividends, and en-
joying no protection that is not accord
ed to any other individual or associa.
ton engaged in the same branch of
business, will from this circumstance
invite competition, and thus prices will
be lowered. The evil, if one exists,
will remedy itself.
One of the professional and indis.
criminate declamers against trusts finds
the present case of the sugar octopus
san interesting one, going to show
that the combinations or trusts face q
potential competition which will prove
disastrous to them and to the whole in.
dustry, if they arouse it to activity by
extortionate practices" This is a con
fession from an unexpected source, and
one which ought to bring Joy to the
heart of the man of wit and wisdom
who had the hardihood at the Chicago
meet to face and COW mob of econom
ic lunatics and demagogues, whose CHIEF
manipulation was William Jenning'
Bryan.

As TO BOer Cruelty.

Humanity and inhumanity are very
much the same in all races and coun-
tries. Probably the Beers have not
been less or more exemplary in their
treatment of the natives of South At
RIGA than were the Pilgrim Fathers,
their descendants and countrymen who
followed them to New England, to the
natives of North America.
The Beers probably are defensible,
or are amenable to criticism, on the
score of their inhum antics TO the abo-
riginal inhabitants to about the same
extent and in about the same degree az
were the white men who settled this
continent and redeemed it from bar
barsm. Certainly no Englishman or
American, whose eye is full of beams
in this regard, is morally competent to
pick out any mote OF inhumanity he
may discern in the optics of the Dutch
farmers Of South Africa. Much less is
the Rev. DR.. Meiring, the pastor of a
Presbyterian church at Johannesburg,
in the Transvaal, who is in this coun-
try, and in New York pulpit on Sun
day denied the charge of Boer cruelty
to the natives, the proper subject of
criticism for his defense of his coun-
trymen on this score. DR.. Meiring is
worthy of credit. He is competent
witness in the matter upon which he
testifes, and his word is entitled 10 the
weight given TO the evidence of man
competent morally and in every other
way to testify. What he says of the
Beers as body, in their treatment of
Zulus and Hottentots, is as true and
subject to the same limitations as
would be similar declarations by any
one of Americas eminent divines on
the general subject of American cru
city to the Indians or negroes.
There are specific instances of cru
city and inhumanity, as to individuals
and sections of the country. They are
not general, and charges of this kind
do not lie against Americans of the
past or the present as class. The
Beers, like honest folks, bought their
lands of the Zulus and paid for them.
The barbarians turned about and in
humanely slew the unoffending pur-
chasers. The victims of savage treach-
cry would have been remiss in their
duty to mankind had they not given
the barbarians a wholesome lesson in
the amenities to be observed in their
future intercourse.

A New Deal.

What if England should demand of
the United States modification of its
naturalization laws, for a larger and
easier admission to the franchise of
British NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Cornish
men, Welshmen, Irishmen, Scotch
men, or people of any other strain of
blood in English citizenship? What if
she should demand that the tariff on
iron and steel, or on tin plates, or any
or all other articles which English in
dustry produces, ,,be removed thus level
ing the barriers against injurious or
destructive foreign competition with
domestic manufactures? Would the
President of the United States nego-
tate and hsggle with England over the
period of residence long or short, for
the acquisition of citizenship? Would
he discuss with an English minister the
terms of the tariff on articles imported
into this country? With scant regard
for the amenities of international in
tercourse, England would be tod to
mind her own business; that, if she
poked her nose into the internal affairs
of the United States, she would have it
bumped. She would get the same an
swer from Germany, or Russia, or
France.
1t is upon the little Transvaal repub-
lie that she lays her heavy hand, with
the assurance that resistance to her
purpose to regulate its internal affairs,
in her own interest, will be in vain and
that summary Glands off will not
be spoken, and enforced by powerful
fleets and armies. So the Beers must
submit to the humiliation of contend
ing in a warfare of words against de-
mands which, if made at all, any first
class power would summarily dismiss
and England wouldn't dare to go
to war to enforce her demands. She
would back down.
The South African Republic has
made every reasonable offer to England
in the matter of the franchise. All
that separates them now is the small
space of two years in the residence
period preceding naturalization. Pres
ident Kruger's first proposal was for a
fve-years' residence and the surrender
of England's control over the republics
affairs with foreign powers. When
Great Britain rejected the condition
attached to this offer, President Kru-
ger substituted seven-years' period of
residence, England's control over the
Transvaal's foreign affairs remaining
the same as provided by the London
convention of 1884, the last adjustment
of the relations between England and
the Transvaal. England now brushes
away the whole fabric of past negotia
tions. She will herself shuttle the
cards, make an entirely new deal, ano
President Kruger must play the hanC
dealt him, or fight.

Roosevelt carried with him the star
collection OF notables to tender the En-
pire States compliments. Among
others were several of Dewey's captains
in the battle at Mania-Dyer of the
Baltimore, Wood of the Petrol, Wildes
of the Boston and Walker of the Con-
cord. The pity is that Coghlan of the
Raleigh was not of the number, who is
reported on his way from the Pacific TO
meet his old commander, and possibly
recite again "Hoch der Kaiser" The
Jackies of the Olympia gave the fight
ing captains tumultuous greeting
born of the memories of the battle in
which they won a common glory. Prob
ably no callers were more welcome to
the quarter deck to which they were
summoned, in the recess of the battle, Ia
report their marvellous immunity from
injury to men and ships.

take the liberty to ask you to canvass
the question among the citizens of st.
